The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 563

The faint smirk on Hendrix's lips slowly faded away. He turned his gaze back to Noelle.

She was glaring at him, her impatience and disgust unmistakable in her eyes.

Yes, it was definitely Noelle.

She had cut her hair short. She and Dylan had checked into a hotel room together.

These two realities hit Hendrix hard in the chest. He clenched his hands, his teeth biting down on his lips so hard that he drew blood.

Yet, he still refused to give up. He asked her, "And you? What are you doing here?"

As he spoke, Hendrix began walking toward her.

The answer was already painfully clear. What else could a man and a woman do in the middle of the night? Surely, they were just chatting in the room.

To make it worse, Noelle had already taken a shower! So, while Hendrix was outside smoking, what had she and Dylan been doing inside?

Hendrix had thought he had already come to terms with it—that he had accepted Noelle was now Dylan's girlfriend. Or that they held hands, ate together, and talked like any other couple. And also, they would…

Hendrix knew all that. Still, nothing had ever hit him harder than this moment. He couldn't help but glance toward the bedroom. He wanted to know—what was the state of the room now? What had they been doing in there earlier?

How had Dylan treated her? Had she been willing? Had she been happy? Had she blossomed into her most radiant self, just like she had when she was with him, albeit in front of another man?
