The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 713
"There's no other way, Tony," Nathan said. "Look around you. These are all men who've worked alongside you for years. Can you really bear to see them all go to prison?
"And let's not forget—you're responsible for your own brother's death. Did you honestly think you'd walk away unscathed? If you die now, at least May might have a chance at a better life."
As Nathan spoke, he glanced at the woman beside him. May's face was filled with terror, and her eyes were bloodshot. As if realizing what he was about to do, she shook her head frantically.
Tony gritted his teeth and finally said, "Don't worry about me! Kill Hendrix first!"
At his words, those who had been hesitating immediately charged forward.
Hendrix's expression darkened. He first kicked Tony away, then grabbed a wooden chair nearby. Next, he pulled a lighter from his pocket.
He had actually quit smoking a long time ago, but he still kept the lighter Noelle gave him on him at all times. The switch was still responsive, and with a light flick, a blue flame sprang to life.
His action stunned everyone in the room, especially Nathan. When he realized what Hendrix was about to do, he froze for a few seconds before shouting, "Stop him!"
His prosthetic legs made it impossible for him to move quickly, so there was no way he would be able to stop Hendrix in time. But the others were no better.
As soon as Nathan finished speaking, Hendrix set the nearby curtains on fire. The door had already been shut, and Hendrix had sized up the house earlier. Though parts of it had been renovated, the beams and wooden pillars were still the original, aging structure.
Once a fire started in a house like this, it would be hard to control. So now, without much effort, the flames quickly began to spread. The fire devoured the curtains in seconds and then leapt hungrily toward the wooden beams above.

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.

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...
