The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 680
Noelle glanced down at Hendrix's hand and simply said, "Let go."
Hendrix didn't respond, but his grip on her remained firm.
"You're hurting me," Noelle added.
Only then did Hendrix loosen his hold slightly, but he still didn't let go.
Noelle suddenly laughed. Before Hendrix could understand the meaning behind her laughter, she raised his hand to his mouth. Then, she bit down on his forearm.
Even though she used considerable force, Hendrix didn't make a sound—not even a grunt. If anything, he even inched his arm closer to her, as if he was afraid she hadn't gotten a good enough grip. But the next moment, Noelle released her grip.
After a pause, Hendrix rolled up his sleeve to expose more of his forearm before offering it to her again. "Keep biting until you feel better."
Noelle chuckled coldly. "Do you really think just biting you will make me feel better?"
Hendrix fell silent.
"When did you find out about what Sandra did?" Noelle asked.
"After our first divorce," Hendrix replied.
Noelle's lips curled into a faint smile. "So before that, you really thought the miscarriage was just an accident, didn't you?"
Hendrix fell silent again.
Noelle didn't press further. But just as she was about to push his hand away, Hendrix suddenly pulled her into his arms.
Noelle didn't know how to answer. She and Ruth had never gotten along, and she certainly didn't feel any sympathy for her, but Hendrix's response still caught her off guard.
After a brief pause, Hendrix added, "But her family's business was already on its last legs. Her father is getting old, and there's no one to take over. Not to mention, they failed at their attempt at restructuring. So, it's not entirely because of me. I'm not as cruel and heartless as you think I am."
There was a hint of tentativeness in his tone toward the end. Only then did Noelle finally look up at him. It was just a fleeting glance—so light that Hendrix couldn't read any emotion from her eyes.
He was about to say something when she suddenly asked, "So, what are you planning to do now?"
"What?"
"You just said you were going to deal with her. How do you plan to do that?"
"What do you want me to do?" Hendrix asked instead.

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...
