And was the man in front of Noelle really her husband? Because they had once been the closest people in the world, he knew everything about her.
That was why Noelle had felt an inexplicable familiarity toward Hendrix before and why she had instinctively wanted to get closer to him.
Sensing her concern, Hendrix asked, "You don't want to leave your mom, do you?"
After a moment of hesitation, Noelle nodded.
"Don't worry. I'm not planning to take you away right now," Hendrix said. "There are still things to deal with in Coppersville. I have to wait until everything is settled before we can go back. As for your mom, we can take her with us when we go back. Don't worry. I'll take good care of her for saving you.
"But you can't just listen to her and marry someone else. You're already my wife. If you marry another man, you'll be committing the crime of bigamy. And more than that, it would be completely irresponsible to me."
Noelle didn't respond.
Hendrix couldn't help but frown when he saw the dazed expression on her face. "Did you hear me?"
Noelle stared at him for a while before finally letting out a soft "okay".
"Then, you know what to tell your mom when you go back, right?"
"Tell her what?"
"That you're not getting married, of course. No matter who it is, it's not happening."
"Got it."
Noelle thought the conversation was over at this point. But then, Hendrix asked her, "And how are you going to explain our relationship to her?"
"What is our relationship?"
As soon as she asked this, Hendrix's expression darkened. "What do you think? Did you not listen to a word I just said?"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Sway and Slide of Love
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...
