Chapter 87
Evelyn was good at socializing. She might’ve been a little timid at first, but she came into herself after she warmed up. Eventually, she was exchanging business cards with everyone
“Hi, Mr. Yoder!”
At last, she saw the man she was looking for tonight. She immediately extended her hand and said, “I’m Evelyn from Galaxy Comics. We talked on the phone before this.”
“Oh, it’s you.” The man standing opposite them shook Evelyn’s hand before he slowly looked at Noelle and scanned her from head to toe.
She’s the comic artist behind “Crabapple Haven‘
“Oh. Have we seen each other before?” Maxton Yoder raised an eyebrow. “Why do I get the feeling that you look. familiar?”
“I don’t think so. I don’t usually go outside,” Noelle merely responded with a smile.
Maxton still felt suspicious, but he quickly said, “I’ve seen your comics, and they are indeed suitable for an adaptation. Moreover, Mr. Quinlan also found it interesting after he read it. He even said that he wanted with you two in person.”
Noelle had sensed that something was amiss when Maxton sent Evelyn an invitation to this party. After she heard what he said, she immediately realized that something didn’t bode well.
However, Evelyn was more than excited. “Really? Where is Mr. Quinlan now?”
“Speak of the devil.” Maxton chuckled as he walked ahead Hi, Mr. Quinlan. This is the comic artist behind the comic that captured your interest. She’s…
“That reminds me. How should I address you, miss?”
“I’m Evelyn Harper.”
Evelyn glanced at Noelle, and she immediately noticed the latter’s emotions. So, she moved and shielded Noelle
behind her.
“No, I mean…”
“You’re Noelle. Isn’t it?” Before Maxton could finish, someone next to him had spoken up.
Initially, Noelle had her back to them.
Magnolia Pictures was owned by Quinlan Group. Maxwell had just returned to the country. So, he still didn’t have any official position in the company, which meant the person Maxton had just mentioned had to be Maxwell’s elder brother, Brandon Quinlan
Noelle knew she couldn’t avoid it anymore. She had no choice but to turn around and plaster a smile on her face.” Hi, Brandon.”
Brandon wore a deep–colored suit. His features were defined and exquisite, and the smile on his face was very charming as well. “It really is you! I thought you looked familiar when I saw you from behind. I thought I was mistaken at first.”
Instead of responding to Brandon, Noelle chuckled.
“How have you been recently? Are you aware that Maxwell is getting engaged?”

“Yeah,” Noelle responded.
‘That tracks. You’ll surely know about it. After all, he’s getting engaged to Sandra.”

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👨👩👧...
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. Hoping in these next few chapters we start to see Noelle and Rosie 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...
