The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 750

"Nelly?" a voice called out, and Noelle snapped out of her thoughts.

"Mom, what's wrong?" she asked.

"I should be asking you that," Irene said, tapping the edge of Noelle's bowl with a frown. "You're supposed to be eating. What are you daydreaming about?"

Noelle let out a soft "oh" and obediently lowered her head to continue eating.

With a frown still on her face, Irene asked, "Are you still thinking about what happened today? Those cops were talking nonsense! Anyway, the date is already set, so we'll go ahead with the wedding.

"You're not getting any younger. Once you're married, hurry up and have a baby. I can help take care of them."

"Who am I marrying?" Noelle asked.

"What are you talking about? You're marrying Sid, of course. I've already accepted the wedding gift. What else do you want?" Irene furrowed her brows tighter as she spoke.

Noelle quickly shook her head. "It's nothing. I was just asking."

"You must be over the moon, huh? Wasn't this already decided before? Besides, you and Sid have been together for so many years—isn't getting married the next natural step?"

"We've been together for many years?"

"Yeah! You've known each other since you were kids. You even bathed together when you were little. In fact, you've known him for over two decades!"

Noelle couldn't recall any of the things Irene said. She tried hard to remember, but a sharp pain shot through her head the moment she did that.

Just as she was about to say something, the sound of a car engine came from outside. The village roads were uneven, and the car swayed as it moved.
