The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 535

Noelle didn't answer. Instead, she turned her head to look out the car window.

Silence settled over the inside of the car.

After a moment, Rosie broke the quiet. "Mommy, I still want to hang out with Seline."

"I know. I've already made plans to have dinner with her tonight."

"Is Mr. Pritchett going, too?" Rosie asked.

As soon as she spoke, Noelle glanced at Hendrix. She wasn't worried about anything else—just that Hendrix might suddenly lose his temper. But to her surprise, he didn't say anything, and the car continued to move smoothly forward.

Only then did Noelle answer Rosie softly, "Yeah."

Rosie nodded happily. "Yay! I like playing with Mr. Pritchett!"

"Why?"

"Because he's so good-looking, and I believe he can protect you, Mommy."

As soon as Rosie said that, Hendrix couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. Then, he shot Noelle a sarcastic look.

Noelle simply ignored him and smiled at Rosie.

Noelle had indeed made dinner plans with Dylan that evening. After all, it had been her fault for cancelling at the last minute that day. And since they were leaving Coppersville soon, if they didn't meet tonight, there wouldn't be another chance.

In fact, she had actually invited Seline to go with them to the amusement park last time. And when Seline found out Noelle had canceled their plans to go to the amusement park with Hendrix instead, she had been furious.
