The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73 

Hendrix was mocking Noelle. After all, after giving her all to leave him, she ended up in a place no bigger than a pigeon hole. 

Noelle wanted to say something, but he didn’t give her the chance, turning to leave after a curt answer. 

At the door, he came to a sudden stop and said, “You should change the lock on your door. The people hanging around here are rather dodgy. It’s for your safety.” 

Without waiting for a reply, he continued forward, as stoics he had always been. 

Noelle glanced at the door lock and shut the door with a bang; in a swift move. 

Hendrix couldn’t help but pause for a split second while going down the staircase, but he didn’t turn back and continued downstairs. 

Levi was waiting for him by the side of the road. The luxurious car and number plate immediately attracted quite a few spectators. Nevertheless, they seemed invisible to Hendrix as he climbed into the car expressionlessly. 

After closing the door for him, Levi went around to the driver’s seat in the front. He was driving for a while until an electric scooter suddenly appeared in front of him, and both of them almost crashed 

With lingering fear, the scooter driver jumped off and kept apologizing. 

“Let’s go if everything’s fine,” Hendrix instructed impatiently with a frown. He couldn’t be bothered to waste his time on this. 

The next second, Levi said, “Mr. Freeman, isn’t that Ms. Swanson? Where is she going?” 

Upon hearing this, Hendrix twirled his head around quickly 

Noelle had changed into a simple T–shirt and shorts. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail, and she was driving further and further away with her back to them. Before her figure disappeared, she stopped and walked into a pharmacy at the side of the road. 

Hendrix’s fingers balled up a little, and the edges of his lips tightened. 

“Mr. Freeman, is Ms. Swanson unwell? Should I- 

“Drive,” Hendrix interjected in an icy tone. 

Noelle popped the pill right after buying it. She was already familiar with the taste of this white pill. Despite that, the bitterness lingered in her mouth, unable to disperse. 

Just when she was about to head home, she heard someone calling from behind. 

“Elle.” 

Noelle stopped for a moment, but she didn’t turn back and continued walking. Without hesitation, Maxwell marched to her and grabbed her hand. 

Noelle frowned. “Let go.” 

“I will after I finish speaking,” he said and tightened his grip. 

Noelle could feel the pain in her bones, and her frown deepened.
