The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 518

Hendrix remembered the scene from the last night when he stood on the balcony, watching Rosie smile and wave goodbye to Dylan. To be honest, the three of them looked incredibly good together, almost as if they were a real family.

At this moment, if he wasn't mistaken, this was the first time Rosie had spoken to him on her own initiative. Yet, what she said was she didn't want to see him.

Hendrix wanted to retort that this was his house, so why couldn't he be here? But when he met Rosie's eyes, he swallowed back his words.

Then, he simply replied, "Okay."

His response was straightforward, but Rosie didn't seem to think much of it. She merely nodded in satisfaction and went downstairs to find Noelle.

Hendrix watched her retreating figure, his hands clenching involuntarily.

It wasn't until the ache in his chest became unbearable that he finally snapped out of it and slowly made his way downstairs.

Beatrice was already in the living room. When she saw him, she immediately called out, "Go and have some breakfast."

"No, it's okay," Hendrix replied as he headed toward the door. "I have some matters to attend to, so I'll get going now."

"At least have some break—"

Before Beatrice could finish, Hendrix had already walked out of the door.

Her words caught in her throat, and she turned to look toward the dining room where both Noelle and Rosie were.

Hendrix had missed the opportunity from last night, and now, he was letting the chance of eating together with Noelle and Rosie slip away again!

Beatrice felt a mix of frustration and helplessness, but there was nothing she could do. So, she entered the dining room by herself instead.

"Hendrix has left already," Beatrice said abruptly.

Noelle was peeling an egg for Rosie. It took her a few seconds to realize Beatrice was speaking to her. She looked up, her eyes questioning whether the words were directed at her.
