The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 692

Hendrix glanced at the documents but didn't take them.

Puzzled by his reaction, Noelle asked, "Aren't you going to take a look at them?"

Hendrix's expression remained unchanged. "There's no rush. First, tell me about your plan."

"Oh, right. I've already inspected their factory. Currently, Ricky's brother-in-law is managing the factory, which has about 500 workers. The project deadline is set for 25 days, and if they have enough raw materials stocked up, they should be able to meet it.

"But the factory hasn't been performing well lately, and Ricky's brother-in-law is a notorious gambler. So, in reality, the factory's material reserves are practically nonexistent.

"In other words, they'll have to find another way to produce the required quantity in such a short time," Noelle spoke slowly, her voice as calm and gentle as ever.

Watching her, Hendrix found himself lost in her voice. For a brief moment, he even forgot why he had been so upset earlier.

It wasn't until Noelle finished speaking that she noticed his gaze. She immediately frowned and asked, "Are you even listening to me?"

"Yeah, I am," Hendrix replied. But then he suddenly reached out and took Noelle's hand. "So, how do you know they won't find a way?"

He asked as if he were serious, but at the same time, he was lightly tracing circles in her palm.

Feeling ticklish, Noelle tried to pull her hand back. But Hendrix tightened his grip, then looked at her with feigned confusion. "Why did you stop talking?"

Noelle had no choice but to suppress the ticklish sensation and continue, "Like I said earlier, Ricky's brother-in-law is a gambler—he's already sold off the factory's raw materials. Since he's not a blood relative, the Massey family will come down hard on him if they find out.
