The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 569

Noelle pursed her lips and finally took the document. "Thank you."

After speaking, she glanced at Rosie.

Rosie immediately caught on and said, "Thank you, Great-Grandma."

Ophelia didn't say anything more. She just leaned back on her bed and looked at Rosie.

Noelle didn't have much to say to her, and Rosie was still a little afraid of Ophelia, so they didn't stay long.

Once Ophelia drifted off to sleep involuntarily, Noelle quietly led Rosie out of the room. She had expected Beatrice to still be waiting outside, but when she stepped out, she found Hendrix standing there instead.

A frown immediately appeared on her face when she saw him.

Hendrix, however, looked calm. When his gaze fell on Noelle, it first swept over the folder in her hand.

After hesitating for a moment, Noelle handed the folder to him. "Mrs. Freeman Senior gave me these shares, but they're of no use to me. You can have them back."

Hendrix smirked and said, "She didn't give them to me. Are you sure you don't want it?"

"Yeah, I don't want them."

"Then, give it back to her," he said coldly. It was clear he had no intention of taking the folder from her.

Thus, Noelle had no choice but to withdraw her hand.

Even though it was a short sentence, it took him a long time to utter it due to how much his voice was trembling.

Hendrix was momentarily stunned. Then, he nodded calmly. "Okay."

With that, he turned to arrange Ophelia's funeral.

But Grant grabbed his arm again and said pleadingly, "Mr. Hendrix, please… Let Mr. Nathan come to see her off! Just for the funeral. Let Mrs. Freeman Senior see him one last time, even if it's just in spirit!"

Hendrix curled his lips into a faint sneer.

He was about to retort that there was no such thing as "in spirit" when Grant suddenly added, "Back when you were locked up in the detention center, Mr. Nathan went to see Ms. Swanson. Don't you want to know what they talked about?"
