The Sway and Slide of Love by Jean Song

Chapter 309 Chapter 309

Noelle maintained a calm facade, but as she completed the final stroke of her signature, the pen's tip unintentionally tore through the paper. She didn't bother to fix it. Instead, she tossed the signed document at Hendrix.

As for Hendrix's reaction? She didn't bother to check. After ossing the document onto his lap, she turned and reached for the door.

But before she could step out, Hendrix's voice came from behind, "Where are you going? Let me drive you. Oh, and since the agreement is signed, let's take care of the marriage registration tomorrow. I'll pick you up in the morning, okay?"

Noelle didn't respond, nor did she reject him. Instead, she decisively closed the car door with a loud thud. The car fell into silence once more.

Hendrix gripped the steering wheel, his eyes lingering on Noelle's retreating figure for a moment before he finally picked up the document she had thrown at him.

There were two copies, and Noelle had signed her name on both. Though she hadn't taken the copy meant for her. Maybe she forgot, or maybe... she simply didn't want to see it. Either way, it didn't matter. She had agreed, and that was all that mattered.
