The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 625

Hendrix pulled Noelle closer to him. "Mrs. Swift, I think you might be losing your mind."

Hendrix remained expressionless, but the sharp, icy air radiating from him sent an involuntary shiver through everyone present.

Marshall also whispered to Marla, "Stop talking."

"Why should I stop? What, are you scared of him, too, now? Hendrix Freeman, others might fear you, but I don't! What else do I have to be afraid of when Seline is already in this state?"

Hendrix didn't even glance at her again. He just gave Marshall a cold look before pulling Noelle away.

Noelle's mind was completely blank. She didn't know what to do or say, only letting herself be dragged along by Hendrix like a puppet.

Then, she saw Rosie inside the room. There was a time when she had also watched her like this in a hospital room. It was right after Rosie had her surgery.

Back then, seeing the numbers on the monitors had filled her with joy and hope for a new life. But now, all that echoed in Noelle's mind were the words Marla had just said.

She couldn't help but lower her head. Marla had been helped up by Marshall and was now leaning against him, trembling as she cried.

As a mother herself, Noelle understood her feelings all too well. So now, as she looked at Rosie's steady heartbeat, she felt no joy at all.

At that moment, the red light across the room suddenly went out.

Noelle turned her head sharply. Then, she saw the doctor walking out. She saw Marla and Marshall stagger forward. She saw the doctor shake his head, say something to them, and then bow his head slightly.

Marla seemed frozen in place. Noelle could tell how stiff her back was, and then, she watched as Marla collapsed backward, fainting on the spot.

Then, she saw a nurse wheel out a bed, and under the sheet was a body.

Noelle's mind went blank, but a voice in her head told her clearly that the body belonged to Seline.
