Noelle had used all her strength. In the past, even if she had lashed out at Hendrix, she had never used full force because of her feelings for him.
But this time, she had put every ounce of her strength into it. Hendrix's cheek quickly turned red, but she didn't even spare him another glance.
As she pushed him aside and tried to keep moving forward, Hendrix said, "They've found them."
Hearing this, Noelle stopped in her tracks. Then, she slowly turned around and asked, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
"No."
"Then, where are they? Is Rosie okay? Where is she?" Hendrix immediately rushed up to Hendrix, her words tumbling out incoherently. "Why hasn't she come to see me? Is she mad at me for not looking for her? Or did you hide her away?"
"She's in the hospital," Hendrix replied. "When the avalanche happened, they hid in a cave. They survived, but the entrance was mostly buried. So, it took the rescue team a long time to find them. She's still in the ICU under observation."
Hendrix spoke slowly, his hands gripping her shoulders, his tone gentle as if trying to calm Noelle.
Noelle stared at him. "So, she hasn't woken up yet?"
"No."
"Is her life in danger?"
Hendrix hesitated before answering, "The doctors are doing their best."
"I want to see her." Noelle seemed to have truly calmed down, but her voice was hoarse.
Hendrix looked at her for a moment, then said, "You're not in a good state right now, so let's wait until tomorrow to go see her."

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...
