The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 662
"Noelle."
When the voice came from behind, Noelle paused and turned around to see a woman walking up to her.
The woman was wearing a loose dress, and her face had filled out compared to before.
"It really is you! I thought I had mistaken someone else for you," the woman said with a smile.
But Noelle had never been close to her, so she simply said calmly, "Ms. Upton, it's been a while."
"Yes, indeed." As she spoke, Ruth swept her gaze over Noelle. "I heard you were back, but I haven't seen you at any events. So, I thought it was just a rumor."
Noelle didn't know how to respond, so she simply looked at her.
"So in the end, Hendrix still chose you, huh? Who would've thought? Back then, everyone assumed he was forced into marrying you, but I guess he actually developed feelings for you, after all."
"Is there something you need, Ms. Upton?" Noelle had no interest in discussing the past, and they had no shared history to reminisce about, so she cut straight to the point.
Ruth's voice trailed off.
Just then, someone from the kindergarten came out and hurriedly made her way toward Noelle. "Sorry to keep you waiting, ma'am. Please come this way."
"Thank you." Noelle nodded at her, then looked back at Ruth with an expression that seemed to ask what she really wanted.
Ruth glanced at the kindergarten entrance, then at the respectful staff member beside Noelle before forcing a smile. "It's nothing. I just thought I'd come to say hello when I saw you."
Unable to join the conversation, Ruth could only sit awkwardly on the sidelines. She actually came to discuss something with Adela today. But Adela was surrounded by other women, leaving no room for Ruth to interject.
It wasn't until the end, when someone suggested taking a group photo, that Ruth finally managed to squeeze next to Adela.
"Hello, Mrs. Armstrong. I'm Ruth Upton. I'm not sure if you remember me?"
Even though Adela had no impression of Ruth, she still smiled politely anyway. "Oh, it's you. Of course, I remember."
"That's great!" Ruth said excitedly. "I actually wanted to talk to you about something. My husband spoke to Mr. Armstrong last time about—"
"I'm sorry, but I don't get involved in my husband's dealings. That's all men's talk," Adela immediately cut her off.

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👨👩👧...
A good change of pace in the last 10 chapters. Also nice to see a shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win Noelle and Rosie over. Hoping in these next few chapters we start to see Noelle and Rosie 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...
