All Chapters of The Sway and Slide of Love: Chapter 721 - Chapter 730

"All I can say is that you think that way because you've never truly understood him."Hendrix's words left Noelle momentarily speechless.After a pause, she finally responded, "But if it weren't for me, you and Dylan wouldn't have had any connection at all. And you wouldn't have almost lost your life because of him.""Hmm, that's true," Hendrix admitted with a nod. But then, he added, "But do you really think I'm the kind of person who's afraid of things like that?"As he spoke, he even chuckled. "If that's what you think, then you're seriously underestimating your baby, aren't you?"Noelle had been frowning at him, but when he used that term of endearment, she froze. Then, she swatted his hand away and turned to look out the window.The plane hadn't taken off yet, and outside, there was nothing but flat ground as far as the eye could see.Hendrix watched her and suddenly laughed. "What's there to be shy about?""Who said I'm shy?" Noelle shot back immediately, her brows furrow

Hendrix didn't answer Noelle."She's just starting to warm up to you, so can't you be a little nicer to her?" Noelle asked, displeasure growing in her tone."Haven't I been nice to her?" Hendrix finally replied."Then, tell me—what did you say to her earlier?"Hendrix paused mid-step. Then, he turned around to glance at her, saying, "I told her you were injured and needed rest.""That's all?""What else did you think I said?" Hendrix asked with a chuckle.Noelle felt there was more to it, but Hendrix didn't give her a chance to press further. Instead, he scooped her up into his arms and carried her swiftly toward the bedroom."What are you doing?" Noelle blurted out."What do you think I'm doing?" Hendrix shot back.His response left Noelle momentarily speechless. After a pause, she said, "Didn't you just say I needed rest?""Exactly. And this is rest," he replied.By then, Hendrix had already carried her into the bedroom. But he didn't set her down. Instead, he kicked the

Noelle tossed and turned in bed for what felt like hours before finally drifting into a restless sleep. When she woke up, the sky outside was already bright. She jolted awake and immediately rushed to the study, but Hendrix was no longer there.The household staff informed her that Hendrix had already left by the time they arrived. It seemed he had driven off early in the morning.Noelle didn't say anything, only pursed her lips tightly. When she returned to the bedroom, she found a note Hendrix had left for her.It said he needed to handle some matters and wouldn't be back for a few days. However, he didn't specify where he was going.Noelle stared at the note for a while before slowly tucking it away.That same day, she saw news reports about Erwin. But perhaps because too many people were involved, the reports didn't reveal much, and the story barely made a ripple.Noele didn't believe this was the whole story. The current calm was merely the lull before the storm.Just as sh

Back then, Dylan had seemed like just an accomplice, someone who had acted out of necessity because the people involved were his family.But if he had truly been pure and upright, he would never have chosen to help them in the first place. When the incident occurred, he wouldn't have tried so hard to cover it up and salvage the situation.Power and influence were like addictive poisons—once one got a taste of it, one always wanted more. But there were only so many spots at the top, and the only way to climb higher seemed to be pulling others down.Because of Noelle, the person Dylan saw standing in his way was Hendrix. Moreover, because of Hendrix, Dylan had lost something important to him. So, it was only natural for him to hate Hendrix.Noelle even suspected that Dylan's later obsession with being with her was partly because he wanted to win against Hendrix. After all, in terms of business tactics, he might not have been able to compete with Hendrix, but what if he could win her

Hendrix didn't even spare Marshall and Marla a glance. Instead, he turned to the people behind him and said, "Search for Noelle."The moment the words left his mouth, his men moved in without hesitation."Hendrix Freeman! This is my home. You're trespassing on private property!" Marla shouted."Noelle came to your party and then disappeared. So what's so wrong with me searching for her here?""Are you seriously accusing us of hiding her?"Instead of responding, Hendrix simply followed the others upstairs.However, it wasn't long before the police called him, informing him that Noelle had likely been taken away by someone.Whoever took her was clearly familiar with the Swift family's estate surveillance layout. They carefully avoided the cameras while moving through the property.The only footage they managed to capture was a brief glimpse of an arm flashing across one of the cameras. It appeared that Noelle had been carried away—her arms hanging limply at her side.It lasted n
