Chapter 541

Noelle felt as though she were some kind of object, being fought over and placed wherever others pleased. After a brief pause, she walked straight up to Hendrix and reached for her suitcase.Hendrix noticed what she was doing and took this as her giving him an answer. He tensed up instantly and gripped the suitcase tighter.Noelle naturally felt the increased pressure from his hold, and she couldn't help but frown. Then, she looked at him and said, "Let go."Hendrix pressed his lips into a thin line, and the veins in his forearm started to bulge from how much force he was exerting.He stared at Noelle in disbelief. So, between him and Dylan, she had actually chosen the latter?Beatrice also witnessed what was happening. She immediately furrowed her brows as she stepped forward. "Noelle, why don't you just let—""Hendrix Freeman, I said let go!" Noelle didn't even wait for Beatrice to finish her sentence. She kept her eyes locked on Hendrix and repeated herself firmly.Hendrix me

The house in Stormridge hadn't been lived in for quite some time. After returning, Noelle spent several days cleaning before it was finally somewhat livable.Throughout the process, Rosie followed her around with a rag, buzzing about like a busy little bee. Just when Noelle thought their days would continue peacefully, an unexpected apology statement surfaced online.It was about the scandal involving her and Ebony from a few months ago. The person who had spread the rumors admitted that they had never actually seen Noelle harassing Ebony. They had simply been unhappy about Ebony working with Noelle and had chosen to fabricate the story to ruin her reputation.By now, most people online had already forgotten about the whole thing. But the entertainment industry was what it was—especially when it involved a celebrity with a massive following like Ebony.The moment the news broke, it immediately sparked widespread attention.Ebony also took to Twitter, stating that he and Noelle h

"It's me," Noelle said."I know," Hendrix replied."Did you handle the situation with Ebony?"Though she phrased it as a question, her tone said otherwise.Hendrix paused on the other end before responding with a quiet, "Yes.""Thank you for your help, but let's end it right here. There's no need to blacklist him.""What's the matter? Are you feeling sorry for him?" Hendrix asked, a hint of mockery in his voice. "Why would you feel sorry for a man who threw you under the bus the moment things went wrong?"Noelle naturally understood his implication but simply replied calmly, "If he had spoken up for me back then, it would've only made things worse. Besides, we were just colleagues, so he had no obligation to defend me. And it's not like he was the only one who stood by and did nothing, right?"Hendrix was left momentarily speechless by her words.Noelle didn't wait for his response and continued, "Regardless, I still appreciate what you've done. As for the rest, let's just for

Dylan had brought another gift for Rosie—a fluffy, white bunny plushie.This time, Rosie didn't refuse it. After getting Noelle's permission, she thanked Dylan and hugged the bunny tightly to her chest.Dylan smiled at her before turning his attention to Noelle. "How have you two been lately?""We've been doing well.""That's good. I saw the news today. It's great that everything's been cleared up. Does that mean your work can move forward smoothly now?"Noelle nodded. "More or less.""Awesome!" Dylan said with a nod.But soon, the conversation between them lulled into silence. Before coming here, Dylan had planned to say a lot to Noelle. Yet now, he suddenly didn't know how to begin. In the end, it was Noelle who broke the silence first. Is work not keeping you busy?""Oh, it's been manageable lately," Dylan replied. "The last quarter's projects wrapped up nicely, so I've got a bit of a break these days. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had time to come see you. Actually, I was ab

In the end, Noelle agreed to go on the trip with Dylan.Rosie was thrilled. She even packed her toy shovel into her suitcase, declaring that she was going to build a sandcastle for Noelle at the beach.Noelle smiled and agreed, helping her fit everything into the suitcase.Seline only found out about the trip later, and she was fully supportive. She even sent a package to the hotel for Noelle to pick up upon arrival.She had been mysterious about it, and Noelle had a bad feeling. When she finally received the package at the hotel, she had the urge to just throw it away.At the time, Dylan had gone ahead to check in while Noelle and Rosie waited in the lobby. Noelle was holding Rosie's hand as the two of them admired the fishes in the large fish tank there.When Dylan returned with the room keys and a pink bag, Noelle was puzzled."This… This is from Ms. Swift," he said.Noelle was taken aback. When she opened the bag and saw its contents, her face flushed red.Dylan quickly av

"Ms. Swanson!" a man called out excitedly from behind just as Noelle and Rosie reached the beach.He was wearing only swim trunks and a pair of sunglasses. His tall frame and striking features drew plenty of attention from those around him, but he seemed completely used to it.He walked up to Noelle with a grin. "What a coincidence to run into you here! By the way, where's your boyfriend?"Noelle pursed her lips before replying, "Hello, Mr. Lawson. It's been a while.""It has," Erwin said, removing his sunglasses and giving her a once-over.He seemed unimpressed by her modest swimsuit. He clicked his tongue before asking, "Why aren't you wearing the outfit from earlier? Or is that just something special for your boyfriend?"His words bordered on disrespectful, but Noelle knew he wasn't trying to flirt with her. Simply put, he didn't see her that way. From the woman who was just by his side, it was clear that he liked tall women with perfect figures.Hendrix had mentioned before

"We're fine with anything," Noelle said as she moved to sit beside Rosie. "You can just focus on work if you're busy. We can make our own plans.""It's a vacation. How can I just focus on work?" Dylan replied.Just then, Erwin suddenly walked over to them. "Ms. Swanson, may I interrupt for a moment?"Hearing his voice, Dylan immediately turned around. But Erwin didn't even spare him a glance. Instead, he handed his phone to Noelle."I'm not familiar with the apps here. Could you help me send my location?"Noelle looked at the screen. It was a chat log between Erwin and Hendrix. They had just finished a call, and Erwin was asking her to send his current location to Hendrix.Though Erwin lived abroad and might not be familiar with local apps, Noelle knew his intelligence far exceeded such a simple task. He was purely toying with her."You can ask your companion for help," Noelle told him."But she's not here right now, is she? Besides, it's just sending a location. You wouldn't r

After Erwin left, Dylan finally asked Noelle, "That man earlier is Hendrix's friend, right?""Yeah," Noelle said softly while keeping her focus on building the sandcastle."So, the person he mentioned who will be arriving soon is also Hendrix?""Probably."Dylan fell silent.Only then did Noelle realize something. She looked up and explained, "I have no idea why he's here, either."Her explanation sounded weak, but after a moment of studying her, Dylan smiled and nodded. "I believe you."Noelle thought his smile seemed a little off but didn't press further. She slowly lowered her gaze instead."How about seafood for dinner? I found a good place nearby," Dylan said.Noelle nodded. "Sure."Erwin's lingering presence that afternoon had left Noelle on edge. During dinner, she kept glancing toward the entrance, half-expecting Hendrix and Erwin to walk in at any moment.But to her surprise, they didn't.Her constant looks toward the door didn't go unnoticed, prompting Dylan to as

Dylan thought that as long as Noelle was by his side, that was enough. So, he quickly smiled and said, "It's okay. Honestly, just being with you two makes me happy. Really."Noelle raised an eyebrow but didn't respond."You don't have to force yourself," Dylan added. "We can take things slowly. It's fine to just get along like friends."Noelle met his gaze for a moment before finally nodding.Dylan couldn't help but reach out and gently stroked her hair. "I'll head back to my room now.""Okay. Get some rest," Noelle said with a smile before closing the door.Dylan walked a few steps down the hallway but suddenly felt something was off. He paused, then slowly turned around.At the other end of the hallway, another door was open. A man stood there, watching him expressionlessly. A cigarette dangled from his fingers, and it was unclear how long he had been standing there.Dylan raised an eyebrow in surprise but still offered the man a polite smile. Then, he opened the door to his

Noelle finally remembered who the woman was and asked, "What do you need?""Just come with me, okay?"The woman's cheeks were flushed, as if she were too embarrassed to explain.Noelle seemed to catch on. "Do you need me to buy something for you? Or should I call a staff member?""No, no." The woman shook her head. "It's not what you think. Just come with me, please? I really need your help."As she spoke, she grabbed Noelle's hand.Noelle initially wanted to pull away, but the woman looked at her pleadingly, seemingly about to cry. Plus, Noelle figured she probably didn't know anyone else here, so she reluctantly followed in the end."Where are you taking me?"It wasn't until the woman led her back to the hotel that Noelle realized something was off."Just come upstairs for a moment," the woman begged, still holding Noelle's hand. "If you don't, Erwin will be furious with me."Noelle frowned. "What does that have to do with me?""You'll understand once you're upstairs."Th
