The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 660

Noelle stood still, her eyes filled with surprise and confusion as she looked at Marla. It seemed she didn't fully understand the meaning behind Marla's words.

After a moment of eye contact, Marla looked away. "What Beatrice said last time was right. Seline's death really wasn't your fault. We're sorry for taking our anger out on you before. I hope you can forgive me.

"After all, Seline was my only daughter. I raised her with so much care, and now, she's just gone like this. Before she died, she didn't even have a chance to leave me a single word. I just can't accept it."

Marla had intended to speak calmly to Noelle, but now, she couldn't hold back her emotions.

Noelle's eyes quickly reddened. She bit her lip slowly, and after a moment, she finally found her voice.

"I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry," she said with a slight bow. "And I've always wanted to thank you and to thank Seline for saving Rosie. I know I can't repay or make up for it. No matter what I do, Seline's not coming back. But—"

Before she could finish, Marla suddenly took her hand.

Noelle looked at the hand that had once been delicate and well-cared for, now rough and aged. She paused, then slowly raised her hand.

"Then, go on living," Marla said. "Just like Beatrice said that day—go on living for yourself and for Seline, too."

As soon as Hendrix entered the villa, he asked the household staff, "Where did Noelle go today?"

His expression was grim, his voice sharp.

The household staff was startled by his demeanor. After exchanging glances with one another, one of them said, "I think she went to the cemetery."
