The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318 

Noelle couldn’t quite remember how she made it back to bel 

For the past few hours, her sleep had been fitful, hovering between dream and reality. In her haze, she felt an odd sensation on her body–almost like a dog burrowing against her. She groggily opened her eyes, only to find that there really was someone lying on top of her. 

Noticing she was awake, Hendrix didn’t bother holding back. He grabbed her calf firmly and pressed down with more force. 

Noelle gritted her teeth. She couldn’t help but reach out with the aim to claw a few marks across his face. But she was too slow. Without a second thought, Hendrix caught her hand and pinned it firmly against his chest. Unable to break free, Noelle decided to just let him have his way for now.

It didn’t seem to matter what he did nothing could elicit even the smallest reaction from her. Not anger, resentment, nothing.

But Hendrix knew this was only temporary. Things would get better. Now that the bond of marriage had tied them together once again, she had no way of escape, 

With that thought, Hendrix tightened his hold on her slightly. 

Noelle was fast asleep, but the discomfort made her brows furrow. Seeing this, Hendrix loosened his grip just a little. 

He watched her for a moment before whispering softly, “I never learned how 

can you give me another chance?” 

Could she? 

Noelle was already deep in sleep, unable to give him an answer.

Hendrix gazed at her for a long moment before finally closing his eyes. 

Then, he had a dream. In his dream, he found himself back at their first wedding. 

Back then, Noelle’s eyes would sparkle whenever she look at him. They were filled with love, yet tinged with a
