Hendrix was happy about the development.
During breakfast, Noelle even took the initiative to speak to him. "The weather is nice today. Is it okay if I drop by the Swifts' place later?"
Hendrix had been pleased by her earlier comment, but his expression faded when he heard what she said next.
Noelle sat there, looking at him seriously. "You promised me before. Or were you lying to me then?"
"I wasn't lying," Hendrix quickly replied, though his brows furrowed slightly. "But why do you want to go there?"
"I owe them a proper apology," Noelle answered.
But what Marla and Marshall wanted wasn't necessarily an apology.
Noelle had only just started to improve recently, so Hendrix didn't want anything unexpected to jeopardize her progress. Not to mention, he knew all too well how much Marla and Marshall hated Noelle right now.
"Don't worry," Noelle said, as if she knew what Hendrix was thinking. "I know they won't forgive me, but even so, I want to do something to ease my conscience. And I'm truly grateful for all that you've done for me during this time."
Noelle looked completely sincere.
Hendrix pursed his lips and said, "Let me think about it."
"I want to go today," Noelle insisted. "If you don't let me, I'll move out right now. After all, I was never supposed to stay here in the first place."
"Are you threatening me?" Hendrix said through gritted teeth.
"If that's how you see it, then yes," Noelle replied indifferently.

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...
