The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 657
Noelle offered no response to what he said, as she thought Hendrix was still lying to her.
Seemingly aware of what she was thinking, Hendrix quickly added, "Jean went to see you before, right?"
Noelle hadn't expected him to bring up Jean. Her previously sharp gaze softened as she asked, "What do you mean?"
"You've probably already guessed it. I was the one who helped Jean fake the foreign investor she told Dylan about."
At his words, Noelle finally remembered the matter.
Truthfully, she hadn't had the mental space to care about anything else recently. Even the name Dylan felt like something from a distant past when mentioned now.
Hendrix couldn't help but frown at her expression and reaction. He then pinched her cheek lightly and said in a voice tinged with dissatisfaction, "I'm not done talking yet."
Not wanting to hurt her, he didn't use much force when he pinched her. But Noelle still found it annoying, so she swatted his hand away with a loud smack.
Hendrix, however, only smiled wider at her reaction.
Noelle found him strange but didn't want to delve into it, so she urged him to continue.
"It wasn't until a couple of days ago that I realized Jean had played me. In other words, that investor actually exists," Hendrix explained.
"Jean's dead," Hendrix replied.
Noelle had become particularly sensitive to the topic of death after what happened with Seline. Her hand, which had been about to push him away, instead tightened around his.
She looked him straight in the eyes and asked, "What did you just say?"
"She died abroad. They say she contracted a severe infectious disease and passed away after a few days in the hospital," Hendrix said, his warm, dry hand firmly holding hers. "And the two of them—Dylan and Jean—got married abroad.
"She had no parents left and no children, so all the inheritance her father left behind went to Dylan."

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...
