Chapter 321

Dylan laughed when he heard Noelle's words.Noelle didn't know why he was laughing, so she frowned.Dylan said, "It wasn't you who dragged me, but the other way round. After all, if not for those evidence, I wouldn't have let you go. But there's no ifs in this world, and it's kind of pointless to keep blaming each other."His words made Noelle laugh as well. She nodded again. "Yes. It's meaningless." Not only was recalling it meaningless, but even their current conversation… was utterly meaningless.Noelle realized this, and so did Dylan. As a result, the conversation could no longer continue.Noelle suddenly recalled her previous interactions with Dylan. She remembered that they used to have quite a lot to talk about. But now, as they sat facing each other, she couldn't think of anything to say.It wasn't just her. Dylan felt the same way.Noelle's coffee had long since been finished, and she had no intention of refilling it. She simply stood up. "Then, I'll get going. You… T

Chapter 322

Night soon fell. Hendrix had spent the entire day at Nivis Villa. He hadn't expected Noelle to be out for so long, even into the night without returning. The messages he sent went unanswered, disappearing into the void.So, what was this supposed to mean? Was she planning to stay out all night?And this was only their second day of marriage!Hendrix almost called her to demand an explanation, but the thought of himself sounding like some powerless, raging husband stopped him.In the end, he put down his phone. He had a blank expression as he stared at the clock in the corner of his computer screen.Before midnight struck, Noelle finally came home.Hearing the sound of the engine, Hendrix instinctively wanted to get up, but he quickly sat back down, his expression unreadable as he resumed browsing through his emails. He remained in the study, not even bothering to close the door.When Noelle came upstairs, she didn't even glance in his direction. Instead, she walked straight past

Chapter 323

In the chaotic bathroom, Noelle slowly lost her energy to fight back.Just when her mind went blank, Hendrix kissed her ears and asked, "Have you done it with Dylan before?"Noelle was still in a trance, so she couldn't answer him, and Hendrix didn't seem to need any answers anymore.Before she could reply, he covered her lips and said, "Forget it. It's not important. All that matters now is you're mine. We're married, Noelle. You're my wife, so I can only be the one in your heart, and you can only like me. Are we clear?"Noelle didn't answer, but her pliant body made Hendrix assume that she was obeying him.Her hand, which was covering her lips, slowly let go. At this moment, Noelle opened her mouth and bit him hard on his hand.…Since Noelle hurt Hendrix, she naturally didn't have it easy that night. He didn't try to hide anything in front of her anymore. The entire night, Noelle almost felt like Hendrix was going to exhaust her to death.It was only when her throat started

Chapter 324

Noelle couldn't snap out of it. Maybe it was because of the address, "sister-in-law", or maybe because of his name—Nathan Freeman.So… he was Gerald's illegitimate son? How could he be here?Countless thoughts flooded Noelle's mind until Grant came over and said, "Mr. Nathan, what are you doing here?"Mr. Nathan…Noelle's suspicions were confirmed, but her thoughts became even more jumbled up. At this point, why did the Freeman family bring Nathan back? Was there a change in the internal circle of Amity Group?Before Noelle could find an answer, Grant had already taken Nathan away.Before leaving, Nathan smiled at Noelle.Noelle furrowed her brows even tighter. She stood there for a moment longer before realizing she still hadn't called Hendrix.Hendrix picked up quickly, but as soon as she heard his voice, Noelle suddenly didn't know what to say.He seemed impatient. "What's the matter?""I'm at Freeman Manor."Noelle was familiar with his tone. If things went as usual, he

However, Noelle was not present.Hendrix's eyes scanned the room, but he quickly turned to the person standing behind Ophelia—who was in a white shirt and with deep-set eyes and a sharp nose.It was no wonder that Noelle was stunned, as even Hendrix himself was momentarily taken aback by the person in front of him.But it was only for a brief second before he regained his composure. He turned to the nearby maid. "Where's Noelle?"His voice was crisp and clear, causing the conversation in the living room to come to an abrupt halt as everyone turned to look at him.Yet, Hendrix seemed to ignore it all, not even greeting Ophelia or the others. His attention was solely fixed on the maid."Ms. Swanson went to the restroom. She should be…"Before the maid finished speaking, Hendrix had already walked forward.Right at this moment, Noelle also came out. When she saw Hendrix, she was stunned, then she looked at the people in the living room.Hendrix didn't care. He just grabbed her an

"Identity? What identity?" asked Hendrix.The words made Ophelia pause for a moment, and then she asked, "What identity are you talking about?" "Hm, Gerald's illegitimate child, is it?" Hendrix spoke, even directly mentioning Gerald's name. As soon as he finished speaking, Ophelia's displeasure reached its peak. But Hendrix seemed completely unaware, continuing, "But everyone in Coppersville knows that my parents had a strong relationship. For an illegitimate child to suddenly appear… It's really not something honorable for the Freeman family, is it?""A strong relationship? Have you forgotten what happened last year?" Ophelia said, her eyes briefly scanning Beatrice. The meaning was crystal clear.But Hendrix didn't mind. He smiled slightly and continued, "You're wrong to say that. The two matters are completely different in nature. No matter what, my mother never did anything out of line while they were married. "But Gerald's been dead for so many years, and suddenly, an

Ophelia's mood was already bad, and hearing Noelle's laughter made her expression darken even further. "What are you laughing at?" "It's nothing. I'm just happy for you…" Noelle glanced at Hendrix. He was also looking at her, seemingly waiting to see what kind of explanation she would come up with. When Hendrix heard Noelle's response, his eyebrows lifted slightly, followed by a chuckle. Unlike the earlier mockery and coldness, his smile now seemed more genuine, as though Noelle had really amused him. But Noelle paid him no mind and continued speaking to Ophelia, "After all, you must be quite bored in this house. You should indeed feel happy for having such a filial grandson." Once Noelle finished speaking, Ophelia did not respond.She could certainly tell that Noelle hadn't been genuine in her words, but Noelle's words were crafted so smoothly that there was no obvious flaw. So even though Ophelia was angry, she could only swallow her feelings for the moment. Hendrix didn

Chapter 328

Noelle knew she shouldn't have said anything. Hendrix was clearly angry, and as soon as she spoke, it was like she became a target for his frustration. It wasn't even her business to begin with, so when Hendrix said that, Noelle chose to remain quiet. However, her silence still didn't satisfy him. "Why aren't you saying anything?" "What do you want me to say?" Noelle replied flatly. "This is your family's business. It doesn't really concern me." As they spoke, the car had already been driven a good distance, but as soon as Noelle finished speaking, Hendrix slammed on the brakes. Though Noelle had her seatbelt on, the car was moving too fast, and she was jerked forward violently by the sudden stop before bouncing back into her seat. The back of her head hit the leather headrest, but it didn't hurt. Still, Noelle furrowed her brows and turned to look at Hendrix.Hendrix also looked at her. "What do you mean by it's my family's matter? Aren't you my wife?""Okay.""Okay?" Hen

"No," Noelle rejected without hesitation. "Why should I agree to this?" "See? You know it. She doesn't love me," Hendrix replied. "I just don't want to make a pointless bet with you." "If you're really that confident, why not take me up on the bet? After all, in your eyes, you're guaranteed to win. You could get me to do something for you. Doesn't that sound like a pretty good deal for you?" Noelle still wanted to refuse, but when she met his gaze, she suddenly hesitated. Maybe it was because the Hendrix of that night reminded her of her past self.And that was when she thought about what Beatrice would feel—a biological child, whose relationship with her wasn't exactly close, compared to someone with no blood relation to her who appeared so obedient.Noelle bit her lips and asked, "If you win, what will you ask me to do?"Hendrix just chuckled and said, "You don't have any faith in yourself, huh?""Forget it." Noelle regretted her hesitation, turning away. "I don't want to

Chapter 330

After Hendrix hung up, there was a moment of silence in the car.He had won the bet with Noelle. But in that moment, his emotions were flat, devoid of any excitement or triumph. Perhaps it was because everything had unfolded exactly as he expected. From the moment he saw Nathan, he knew that while the situation might not have been orchestrated by Beatrice, she still had chosen to stand by and watch with a cold, indifferent gaze. It was a reminiscence of his childhood. Hendrix would fight with other kids, and Beatrice would stand on the sidelines, watching coolly until they were pulled apart. Only then would she step forward, guide him away, and pour a bottle of water over his head in a quiet place. She would then ask, "Feeling calm now? Fighting is the last resort. Only the most useless people resort to such crude methods."That was true.But those words, they could have come from a teacher or any elder, but they should not have come from a mother. Hendrix had always been an
