Chapter 741

Beatrice stood nearby, her voice filled with surprise when she heard what Hendrix said. "You have news about Noelle? Where is she?""Creston. I'm going to bring her back now," Hendrix replied."Who told you this? Why would she be in Creston? And why hasn't she contacted you all this time? Is this information reliable?" Beatrice remained calm, firing off several questions in a row.But Hendrix didn't have time to explain. "I'm heading to Creston now. Just take good care of Rosie.""Wait. What if it's a scam? Hendrix!" Beatrice tried to stop him, but he didn't even break his stride.By the time she ran outside, he was already in the car.A scam? There was indeed a possibility that Dylan was lying to him just to buy time. There could be people waiting for Hendrix in Creston, ready to kill him as soon as he arrived. But so what?It had been so long since Noelle vanished without a trace. No one knew how Hendrix had made it through this time. For the first time, Hendrix understood wha

The plane landed safely. Hendrix then drove himself to Creston.The journey took five or six hours, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of fatigue. He had considered bringing someone with him, but Dylan had insisted he come alone. Otherwise, all he would find was Noelle's corpse.Hendrix didn't want to take that risk. He couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to Noelle. Besides, he had already made arrangements for what would come after. If he really died there, Dylan wouldn't survive, either.Once Dylan was gone, the people backing him would lose their support, and they would have no choice but to release Noelle. That was if Noelle was still alive.But if something had already happened to her, then it was only right for him to join her in death. He knew this was irresponsible of him—especially toward Beatrice and Rosie, and just when Rosie had finally started to warm up to him.But before he was a son or a father, Hendrix was first and foremost himself—and Noelle's husb

So, had something really happened to Noelle? Was she really dead?No, that couldn't be possible. But if she wasn't, then why couldn't Hendrix find a single trace of her? Even when he had already exhausted all his connections and resources. And more importantly, if she were still alive, how could she not send him even the slightest message?This was a possibility Hendrix had considered before, but he had never been able to accept it.Now, his worst fears had been confirmed. The one thing that had kept him going all this time crumbled in an instant. He stood frozen, unable to react.At that moment, the men charged at him, their weapons aimed directly at him.Even though he had gone stiff and no longer had the will to live, Hendrix instinctively raised his arm as the blade came down.The blade struck his arm, and the sharp pain snapped him back to reality. He kicked the man in front of him away. Then, he opened the car door and got inside without hesitation."Don't let him escape!"

To avoid his superiors blaming him for Hendrix losing too much blood, Jerry had him taken to his office. As he questioned Hendrix, he also tended to his wound.Just as he finished, officers returned from the scene with two more people in tow."What are you doing? We're completely legal! I even gave her mother a wedding gift! Why are you bringing me to the station?" the man kept shouting angrily as he walked in.Jerry frowned and turned to his colleague. "What's going on?""Oh, the courthouse reported them," the colleague explained. "They were there to register their marriage today, but the bride's ID didn't match her. The age didn't line up, either. "Plus, she couldn't remember her full name and seemed a bit off. The courthouse staff suspected human trafficking, so they called us."As the colleague spoke, Jerry glanced at the two newcomers.He noticed that the woman was quite beautiful. Though she was dressed in rough clothes and her hair was disheveled, her tanned skin and del

But in the end, Hendrix still managed to finish his sentence. Even Jerry couldn't help but be moved by the sight of him. He quickly nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll definitely help you. I mean, this is our duty, after all. So, you can rest assured!"As he spoke, he signaled to his colleague to print out the photo of Noelle from Hendrix's phone.When Jerry saw the photo again, he furrowed his brows slightly. He couldn't help but feel like he had seen the woman in the photo somewhere before. But he couldn't remember where."Captain Ortiz?" someone beside him called out cautiously.Only then did Jerry snap out of it and realize Hendrix was still in the office."Oh, right. This way, please, Mr. Freeman. I'll take you to the hotel now.""Thank you." Hendrix nodded at him.Jerry smiled and opened the office door for him.Meanwhile, the man who had just been brought in was still arguing. "It's not like that. We're really getting married out of our own free will. We're from the sa

Hendrix's phone continued to ring. Beside him, Jerry was still rambling about something. The man sitting next to her was speaking animatedly, trying to explain himself.But all those sounds faded into nothing for Hendrix. His vision narrowed to only the woman in front of him. She was sitting beside the man, wearing a rough but clean white shirt, her hair tied into a low ponytail.Hendrix was actually standing quite far from her. But the woman's figure was etched into his mind. His breathing grew rapid, his hands clenched, and even his shoulders began to tremble slightly."Mr. Freeman?" Jerry had been talking the whole time. But when he realized Hendrix hadn't responded, he couldn't help but call out to him.Hendrix didn't answer. He just stood there, staring intently at the woman."Mr. Freeman, are you—" Jerry wanted to say more, but Hendrix had already started walking toward her.At first, his steps were hesitant, stiff, and slow. But then, his pace quickened.By the time he re

"His wife? No, this is my wife. We're going to register our marriage today. Her mother has already accepted the wedding gift!" The man's voice grew louder.Hendrix snapped back to the present. Slowly, he turned to look at Noelle, as if waiting for her to explain. But she wouldn't even meet his gaze.She didn't seem the least bit happy at seeing him again. Instead, she was trying to pry his fingers off her in a bid to free herself."Noelle," Hendrix called her name. "What are you doing?"But she gave him no response.Hendrix clenched his teeth, and he was about to pull her closer to question her when Noelle screamed, "Let me go!"Her sharp voice forced Hendrix to release his grip. Noelle immediately stepped back and hid behind the man."See? She doesn't know you at all. So like I said, she's not your wife. I think you're just trying to take advantage of my wife because she's pretty! You might look decent on the surface, but you're nothing but a shameless scumbag!"The man was fu

"Isn't there a hospital nearby?" Hendrix asked, his impatience creeping into his voice. "A DNA test would settle this, wouldn't it?""Yes, that's right." Jerry finally remembered this option and immediately arranged for someone to take them to the hospital.But Sid wasn't having it. "No way! You're all in on this! Don't think I don't see what's going on—you're just sucking up to this guy because he's rich. And when the results come back, you'll make sure they say whatever he wants!""Mr. Hodge, please watch what you're saying." Jerry's expression darkened. "Do you even realize where you are and what you're saying?""I—whatever! You're all in this together. We're leaving right now!"With that, Sid grabbed Noelle's hand and was about to pull her away when Hendrix stood up."Let go of her hand," he said icily."This has nothing to do with you! I'm telling you. They might suck up to you, but I'm not afraid of you! You can—""Mr. Hodge, if you insist on leaving now, we can charge yo

"Mrs. Wallace, look. This is a photo of Mr. Freeman's wife, and she looks exa—"Irene cut Jerry off, "What photo? What do I care what his wife looks like? This is my daughter!" "I understand, but since there's doubt, why not settle it with a DNA test? Once the results are in—""What DNA test? I won't do it! You're all out of your minds! How could my daughter suddenly be someone else's wife? Nelly, we're leaving!"With that, Irene grabbed Noelle's hand and turned to leave.Jerry was about to step forward and say something, but Hendrix stopped him."Mr. Freeman, what are you—""Where do they live?" Hendrix asked."What?""The village they mentioned—where is it?"…People always said it wasn't unusual for two people in the world to look alike. But Hendrix knew he hadn't made a mistake. There was no way he could have been wrong.In truth, he could have taken Noelle to the hospital right then and there, and a simple DNA test would have confirmed her real identity. Even if she h

"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? Bes
