After all, the amount of effort Dylan had put in over the years was something no one else could fully comprehend. At least from what Noelle had seen, she knew how difficult his journey had been.
But now, it was all being easily destroyed because of her.
So, she would have completely understood if Dylan had chosen to sacrifice her. In fact, she might have even expected it, and that was precisely why she found his response so surprising—this was the first time she had been so firmly chosen.
She unconsciously clenched her teeth as she looked at the man in front of her.
"You don't want to?" Dylan asked her.
Noelle actually laughed out loud at the question. Then, she quickly lowered her eyes, forcing back the tears in them before looking up at Dylan again.
"I do. This kind of life isn't hard at all. You don't know this, but ever since I was a child, I've dreamed of having a home of my own. It doesn't need to be big or luxurious, and it certainly didn't need hired help or a nanny.
"As long as I have my kids and someone who truly cares for me—that's enough. That's the kind of life I've always wanted."
After Noelle finished speaking, Dylan smiled softly. Then, he leaned down and gently pressed his lips to her forehead.
"Then, let's build that home together," he said.
…
Meanwhile, in Coppersville. It was late at night, but Hendrix's office was still brightly lit. He sat expressionlessly, staring at the data in front of him. The ashtray beside him was overflowing.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Sway and Slide of Love
Like how the story is progressing now but why is the author only releasing 3 chapters at a time? this is torture😩😩...
Woah chapters 41-45 is intense!! Good to see Noelle’s character who has come across as mostly detached actually express emotion....
I find Noelle’s character so frustrating, she comes across lacking any true emotion. The chapters where Rosie was missing was probably the most where we have seen some strong outward emotion shown. Dreading these next few chapters if she is going to do something drastic to “go find Seline” The author has taken us on a rollercoaster with these characters. The novel feels like it is at a stage now where they can come full circle....
A good change of pace and story in the last 10 chapters. Good to see the shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win over Noelle and Rosie. Hope we start to see them warm up to him. Please no crazy twist where he loses them again. Have enjoyed this story and looking forward to its wrap up👨👩👧...

I have been in love with this novel but I don’t know how much patience I have to wait until the to finish line. Dear Author, can you atleast give us some idea about how long is this going to be or if there’s any turning point coming soon. And it would be great if you could upload at least 10 chapters at once. 5 chapters is making me more impatience with the anticipation of the further story of novel🙈...
I really hope there is a turning point in this story where Noelle starts to show some interest in Hendrix...
