The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 688
Noelle still had a glass in her hand, and Hendrix's sudden embrace nearly made her drop it. She paused for a moment before turning to him. "What are you doing?"
Instead of answering her, Hendrix simply lowered his head and kissed her on the shoulder. Even though it was only a light kiss, it still sent a shiver down her spine. She instinctively tightened her grip on the glass and tried to pry his hands off.
"Let go first."
Hendrix didn't listen.
"If you don't stop, I'm pouring this water on you."
Noelle's tone carried a hint of anger, but Hendrix didn't seem to care. Instead, he took the glass from her hand and downed the water in one go. The empty glass clinked against the marble countertop as he set it down.
Her dress was already bunched up around her waist. Her fingers dug into the counter's edge, knuckles turning white from how hard she was gripping it.
The entire villa was silent—every little sound seemed amplified in the stillness. Because of this, Noelle bit down on her lip even harder, determined not to let a single sound escape. She'd rather die than risk alerting anyone. Actually, she'd bite Hendrix to death first, then die.
Her lip split from how hard she was biting, the sharp tang of blood spreading across her tongue. Yet despite her efforts, a soft whimper slipped out. She tried to swallow it back, but Hendrix quickly caught her chin—kissing her the moment she turned her head.
His lips still carried the taste of honey, mixing with the faint tang of blood in Noelle's mouth. The strange combination made her frown. She was just about to push him away when a sleepy voice suddenly cut through the air.
"Mommy, Daddy, what are you doing?"
The voice made Noelle jolt instinctively. At the same time, Hendrix tightened his grip on her waist, the veins at his temple twitching. But at that moment, that was the least of her concerns. She shoved him away and rushed over to Rosie.

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...
