The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 542

The house in Stormridge hadn't been lived in for quite some time. After returning, Noelle spent several days cleaning before it was finally somewhat livable.

Throughout the process, Rosie followed her around with a rag, buzzing about like a busy little bee. Just when Noelle thought their days would continue peacefully, an unexpected apology statement surfaced online.

It was about the scandal involving her and Ebony from a few months ago.

The person who had spread the rumors admitted that they had never actually seen Noelle harassing Ebony. They had simply been unhappy about Ebony working with Noelle and had chosen to fabricate the story to ruin her reputation.

By now, most people online had already forgotten about the whole thing. But the entertainment industry was what it was—especially when it involved a celebrity with a massive following like Ebony.

The moment the news broke, it immediately sparked widespread attention.

Ebony also took to Twitter, stating that he and Noelle had always been innocent. He explained that he hadn't spoken up months ago because his company had ordered him to stay silent.

He expressed his apologies to Noelle and, before ending his post, took a moment to call out the fans who had secretly taken photos, urging everyone to help create a healthier online environment.

Shortly after, Noelle received a call from Ebony's company.

"Our deepest apologies, Ms. Swanson. This was entirely our fault for not handling the situation properly. Please rest assured. We've already dealt with the fan responsible. She's issued a public apology, and the authorities will also deal with her accordingly.

"The drama is currently in post-production and will be released in two months. Don't worry. Your name will be prominently credited.

"As for Ebony… Well, you know he's still young. This was his first time dealing with something like this, and it was our decision to keep him from speaking out back then.

"It was never our intention to let the blame fall on you. Since you've worked with him before, you should know what a good person he is, right? Based on this, could you please give him another chance?"

But now, their attitude toward her had done a complete 180, and there was only one person who could have made them act this way.

"Alright. I understand," Noelle said. "Don't worry. I'm fine."

"I'm so glad to hear that." The person on the other end finally let out a sigh of relief.

After hanging out, Noelle remained silent for a moment before dialing another number.

She had long deleted Hendrix's contact from her phone, but the ten-digit number was etched into her memory. She didn't even need to think before pressing the buttons.

The call had barely connected when his voice came through, "Hello?"
