Chapter 97
Noelle’s tears started to fall uncontrollably.
“Jerk,” she muttered through clenched teeth, her voice trembling.
Hendrix, who had been ready to bite her neck just moments ago, froze when he heard her words. Then, he lifted his gaze.
Noelle’s lipstick was smudged, her eyeliner smeared from the tears that rolled down her cheeks, and her hair was a mess. She looked utterly disheveled.
Yet, Hendrix’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the tears glistening on her lashes.
His movements slowed. Instead of continuing, he cupped the back of her head gently and kissed her.
This kiss was much softer and tender. Noelle didn’t resist the way she had earlier.
In reality, Hendrix couldn’t bear to see her in pain, either. But now, as her resistance eased, Hendrix found himself regaining his composure.
Just as he was about to speak, hoping to reason with her, Noelle suddenly bit down hard on his lip.
“Mr. Freeman.”
It had been a day, yet Dan still couldn’t stop glancing at Hendrix’s lips whenever they spoke.
Of course, the handprint on Hendrix’s cheek was also noticeable. But it was nothing compared to the bloodied scab on his lip.
The slap on its own might lead people to believe that it was about some sort of family disagreement. However, the wound on his lips told a different story.

Hendrix had been divorced for almost two months. The woman who left those marks was a complete mystery.
“What is it?” Hendrix’s deep voice broke Dan’s train of thought.
Snapping back to attention, Dan replied, “It’s Mrs. Freeman. She’s here.”
“What does she want?” Hendrix asked sharply.
“Said she’s here to drop something off. She’s waiting in the lounge,” Dan explained.
“I don’t have time to see her. Tell her-
“What’s keeping you so busy that you don’t even have time to see me?” a cold, familiar voice interrupted him.
Hendrix furrowed his brows.
Dan quickly turned to face Beatrice, “Mrs. Freeman, Mr. Freeman is-
“What happened to your face?” Beatrice cut him off, her sharp eyes instantly zeroing in on Hendrix’s injuries. Her expression darkened. “Are you dating someone?”
“No,” Hendrix answered flatly.
“Then, what’s with the injuries?”
