The Sway and Slide of Love by Jean Song

Chapter 722

Hendrix was well aware that they were in a public space. Truthfully, he hadn't planned on doing anything inappropriate he just wanted to tease Noelle a little.

Of course, his little stunt came with its own consequences, but seeing Noelle flustered and nervously glance around made it all worth it.

The plane soon arrived in Coppersville.

As Noelle disembarked, she was surprised to see Beatrice waiting at the airport with Rosie. The moment Rosie spotted Noelle, she rushed over and clung to her, refusing to let go.

Noelle gently hugged her back, feeling a little guilty.

Thankfully, they had both returned safely. Noelle didn't say anything more, simply holding Rosie a little tighter.

Meanwhile, Beatrice was scrutinizing Hendrix from head to toe.

Hendrix knew what she was thinking and simply stood there, letting her take a good look before finally saying in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry. It's just a few scratches."

Beatrice, who had initially been concerned, frowned even more deeply at his words. "You seem quite proud of yourself."
