The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 

Noelle noticed Craig’s calm demeanor and suddenly chuckled. “I see how it is. Did you work with Hendrix to do this?” 

“Of course not.” Craig frowned and continued, “Noelle, you’ve been in the company for some time now, so you should know that the company’s interest is above yours, right?” 

Noelle didn’t answer this time, but she was gritting her teeth hard. 

That person… 

Well, he was no stranger to Noelle–he was the general manager of the subsidiary company in Vinton City, Julio. 

Julio’s network was primarily based in Vinton City, so when he was transferred back to headquarters, it was essentially a form of marginalization. But even so, it didn’t stop him from creating trouble in the company. 

Amity Group had also arranged for him to take over for this project. 

Noelle knew that Hendrix wanted to target her. 

“Ms. Swanson, long time no see!” Julio beamed happily as he walked toward Noelle and extended out his hand. 

Yet, Noelle ignored him and just gave him a cold glance before turning to leave. 

“If you’re not busy these days, come to the company and hand over the work,” Craig’s voice came from behind. 

Noelle’s footsteps paused slightly, but she didn’t turn around. She just walked out with a blank expression. 

Once she was outside the building, her straight back slowly slumped forward inch by inch. 

Then, she saw the car parked there. The familiar model with the familiar license plate. 

Noelle’s lips immediately pressed together. Then, she walked over to the car. 

The window was closed, and the tinted film made it impossible for Noelle to see inside, but the car door was not 

locked. 

Noelle opened the door and got in. Hendrix was sitting in the back seat. 

His appearance hadn’t changed at all. His shirt was always neat, and at this moment, his sleeves were rolled up, revealing his forearm and the black and gold watch on his wrist. 

He was holding a tablet, looking at it with complete focus, but he seemed unfazed by Noelle’s sudden appearance. 

When Noelle closed the car door, he finally turned off the screen and smiled warmly at her. 

“Are you having fun?” Noelle asked directly. 

Hendrix raised an eyebrow but didn’t answer right away. 

Noelle continued, “Mr. Freeman, you really can’t lose, can you? I thought no matter what, you’d still be someone who values your word.” 

Once she finished speaking, Hendrix let out a light laugh. Then, he told her, “Looks like you misjudged me.” 

His answer made Noelle pause, and she slowly gritted her teeth. “So, was this intentional?” 

“Yes.”
