The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 771
"I haven't slept all night. Can you just let me rest for a while?" Hendrix asked.
"Why don't you go sleep in your own place?" Noelle argued.
"I can't sleep without you."
The moment Hendrix spoke those words, Noelle's cheeks flushed bright red.
She wanted to argue, but in the next moment, Hendrix's breathing seemed to steady.
Surprised, she lifted her head and saw the dark circles under his eyes. Even his usually clean-shaven jaw now bore a faint stubble.
Her hand, which had been ready to push him away, slowly dropped.
Hendrix hadn't expected to fall asleep so quickly. Though he had finally found Noelle, he hadn't been sleeping well these past few days. Aside from constantly being jolted awake, the terrible conditions here only made things worse. But in Noelle's room, none of that seemed to matter.
Even in this cramped, damp little house, even on this rickety wooden bed that cracked beneath him, he could still catch the faint scent of her skin and the sun-warmed fragrance of the blankets. It made him feel safe.
Noelle lay against his chest. At first, his sudden presence had chased away any chance of sleep. But as she listened to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat, as his warmth slowly seeped into her, she slowly closed her eyes again.
Until she heard Irene's voice.
"Nelly, why aren't you up yet? Are you feeling unwell?"
Noelle jolted awake. Hendrix frowned, stirring as if he were about to open his eyes.

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...
