Of course, Hendrix knew who they were referring to. This was the first time he asked the security guards of the hospital to kick these people out.
The two elderly, despite their frail appearance, shouted with full force as they were dragged out, claiming they would go to the press and make sure everyone knew that Lloyd was killed by the Freeman family.
At that moment, Hendrix coldly responded, “Go ahead.”
His fearless attitude sent a chill down their spine, but he didn’t look at them again.
After a while, Dan arrived and told him that his items from Serene Street had been moved to Percy Gardens,
Hendrix only responded with a hum.
Dan hesitated for a moment before saying, “I saw Mrs…. Ms. Swanson didn’t look good. She might be sick.”
Hendrix didn’t reply.
“Mr. Freeman, actually Ms. Swanson isn’t at fault in this matter. Are you sure you want to take it out on her…”
Dan hadn’t finished speaking when Hendrix suddenly glanced at him.
Although Hendrix didn’t say a word, that one glance was enough to make Dan’s heart skip a beat. He swallowed back the words he had intended to say. Finally, with a quiet sigh in his heart, he decided to say nothing more.
Noelle had indeed fallen ill. After all, she had been sitting in the cold wind for hours, and it was only natural for her to catch a cold and fever.
She had some medicine prepared on her side, but just before taking the medicine, she seemed to recall something and slowly placed the box back. Instead, she poured herself a glass of warm water to drink.
It was good that her condition wasn’t that bad. After recovering at home for a few days, she got better.
But her cough seemed to never subside. Especially at night, when she already struggled to fall asleep, the continuous coughing almost pushed her to the brink of emotional collapse, but she never cried.
Since childhood, she had grown accustomed to the fact that she would continually lose things. Her mindset had shifted from questioning things to accepting her fate.
In truth, she had never really believed in Hendrix’s feelings for her. Even at the height of their most “passionate” moments, she still couldn’t convince herself that he truly loved her.
She simply didn’t know how to refuse. She knew it was like swallowing a piece of candy laced with poison, yet she chose to swallow it anyway–all just for the fleeting, false sweetness.
And now, she thought that it was no wonder that she felt so broken inside.
In January, Noelle received a message from the airline. It said that the flight she had booked a month ago to Dynalis had been rescheduled and would depart in two days at midnight.
She stared at the message, somewhat confused.
After a while, she remembered that Hendrix had told her that he would take her to Dynalis for a vacation.

It had already been a month.
Noelle stared at the information for a while, then chose to open the browser and ask, “What do I need to prepare for a trip to Dynalis?”
This was the second time Noelle came to Dynalis. The first time was two years ago with Hendrix.
At that time, they had just held their wedding, and Beatrice had prepared a honeymoon trip spanning four countries for them.
However, that trip had not been particularly pleasant. Hendrix had claimed it was a honeymoon, but in reality, he had work and social engagements in every destination they visited.
As a result, Noelle often found herself alone in the hotel.
Later, when she tried venturing out on her own, she nearly got lost.
When Hendrix finally found her, he only asked her one question, “You don’t even know how to speak Edalanese?”
