The Sway and Slide of Love by Jean Song

Chapter 505 Noelle fell silent. What Seline knew, she knew, too. In fact, she understood it a hundred times more clearly than Seline did.

But right now, her mind was completely blank. She knew Hendrix hated her. Whatever he wanted to do to her, Noelle didn't care. Yet, he chose to do nothing. And precisely because he did nothing, he had her completely at his mercy.

Noelle knew he was doing this on purpose. Playing with people's emotions and manipulating everyone like puppets were things he excelled at and enjoyed.

So, he also knew exactly what would hurt Noelle the most. This time, his strike was precise and devastating.

Seline was still talking beside her, but Noelle could no longer hear her. She just stared blankly at Rosie lying in the bed.

Rosie was still so young. Her warmth and vitality were still thrumming. But now, it felt like Noelle could only watch helplessly as Rosie slowly moved toward decline.

"Noelle? Noelle!" Seline called out to her, gripping her shoulder.

But Noelle couldn't respond. She could already feel a vast darkness quickly swallowing her whole.

Noelle felt like she had been walking for a long time. She didn't know where she was or where she was going.
