The Sway and Slide of Love by Jean Song

Chapter 538 When Noelle stepped out of the restroom, she happened to hear Seline say, "Please stop drinking. It hurts me to see you like this. Ugh!"

Seline was standing in front of the mirror, washing her hands while mimicking what Angela said to Hendrix. She had never liked Angela, but after tonight, her dislike had turned into outright disgust.

Noelle glanced at her and said, "She hasn't done anything to you, so why do you hate her so much?"

"Why do I hate her?" Seline widened her eyes as if Noelle had asked the most bizarre question.

"Why should I not hate her? Did you see how fake she was acting? And wasn't she subtly taking digs at you? She was basically saying you and Hendrix are ancient history! It's ridiculous! I wasn't even talking about that long ago when she was out shopping and checking into hotels with that other guy.

"Is Hendrix out of his mind? How can he even stand to be with a woman like her, who has nothing going for her? Do you think he's doing this just to provoke you? Honestly, I can't think of any other reason. Just the thought of having to see that woman again makes me sick. Why do you keep pulling me?"

Seline's words came out like a rapid-fire barrage, impossible to stop. Throughout the entire exchange, Noelle had tried to interject, but she couldn't get a single word in. In the end, all she could do was tug hard on Seline's hand.
