Chapter 747

"His wife? No, this is my wife. We're going to register our marriage today. Her mother has already accepted the wedding gift!" The man's voice grew louder.

Hendrix snapped back to the present. Slowly, he turned to look at Noelle, as if waiting for her to explain. But she wouldn't even meet his gaze.

She didn't seem the least bit happy at seeing him again. Instead, she was trying to pry his fingers off her in a bid to free herself.

Hendrix clenched his teeth, and he was about to pull her closer to question her when Noelle screamed, "Let me go!"

Her sharp voice forced Hendrix to release his grip. Noelle immediately stepped back and hid behind the man. "See? She doesn't know you at all. So like I said, she's not your wife.
