The Sway and Slide of Love by Jean Song

Chapter 608

"Hold the door!" a voice called out from outside the elevator.

If it had been anyone else, Noelle would have pressed the button to keep the doors open. But this time, she lowered her gaze and began frantically pressing the close button instead.

Alas, she was still too slow. Just as the doors were about to shut, a hand shot out and blocked them, causing them to slide open again.

Noelle pressed her lips into a tight line.

Despite being the one who forced the doors open, Hendrix still thanked her as he stepped inside.

Noelle didn't respond. Instead, she silently pulled Rosie to the side, as if trying to put as much distance between them and him as possible.

Hendrix noticed but said nothing, simply staring at the changing numbers on the elevator panel. Soon, they reached their floor, and Noelle stepped out with Rosie first.

Noelle then reached for her keys to unlock the door, but she quickly realized her keys were missing.

"Mommy, I need to go potty," Rosie said.
