The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 761
Noelle hadn't expected Hendrix to bring this up, so she was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at him with confusion.
"I wanted to use the bathroom," he answered with a cheeky grin.
"Oh." Even though Noelle felt flustered, she still quickly stepped aside.
Hendrix, however, remained seated. Noelle looked at him, puzzled.
He chuckled and said, "My arm is injured. I can't even feed myself—do you think I can go to the bathroom on my own?"
Noelle's expression changed instantly. "W-What do you mean?"
Hendrix reached out and took her hand. "Help me," he said in a low and raspy voice.
Noelle immediately shook her head. "No way!"
As she spoke, she tried to pull her hand away.
But even with only one good hand, Hendrix's grip was still strong.
Not only did he not let go, but he slid his fingers through Noelle's and pressed his palm firmly against hers. The dry, burning warmth of his hand made Noelle's cheeks flush instantly. It was as if, at this moment, she wasn't holding his hand but something far more intimate.
"Let go!" Noelle said in a trembling voice, looking like she was about to cry.
Hendrix watched her, the smile on his lips growing wider. "You just said you'd take care of me, yet you won't help me now?"
Soon, Hendrix cupped her cheek. It was different from when Noelle had held his hand earlier. When their hands had intertwined, she had felt the intense heat of his fingertips and palm. But now, as his palm rested against her face, she could feel a slight chill.
Then, she suddenly realized something and straightened her back in a bid to escape the suffocating closeness. But before she could move away, Hendrix whispered, "This isn't a dream."
She looked at him with bewilderment, not understanding what he meant. Just as well, she had questions she wanted to ask him.
But before she could say anything, Hendrix suddenly placed his hand on the back of her head and guided her face downward. Then, his lips met hers.
It was a feeling that was both unfamiliar and yet strangely familiar. Her body reacted instinctively, but to Noelle, it felt as if an electric current had passed through her lips and sent a shiver through her entire being.
After that, her body started to melt, and even her wide-open eyes slowly closed in that moment.

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...
