The Sway and Slide of Love

After hearing Noelle's response, Hendrix didn't say anything more. He simply left Sienna Villa with his entourage. When he reached the parking lot, he spotted

Seline standing there.

Because of Noelle, Seline had never been particularly fond of Hendrix. Even though her position technically required her to maintain a good relationship with him, she still refused to do so. In fact, she couldn't even be bothered to put on a

front.

But today, when Seline saw Hendrix, she seemed to be in an unusually good mood. She even took the initiative to wave at him.

"Hello, Mr. Freeman," she greeted.

Even though Hendrix found this odd, he didn't say anything about it. He simply gave her a slight nod before getting into his car.

Like hell Seline was just going to let him leave like that!

The situation with Angela was something Seline wanted to blow up into a big scandal, but Noelle had a point, too. On the surface, Seline had no real connection to Hendrix, so whether he was being cheated on or not had nothing to do with her.

But if she made a big deal about it, Hendrix might suspect Noelle was behind it. He might even think he was some big deal and that Noelle was deliberately targeting Angela.

Still, there was no way Seline was just going to pretend like nothing had happened.

As Hendrix was about to get into his car, Seline quickly caught up to him. "Mr. Freeman, I heard you've got a new girlfriend. She's an influencer with a massive following, right?"

At her words, Hendrix paused and turned to look at her. His gaze seemed to be asking what this had to do with her, yet there was also a hint of anticipation in it.

As to what he was anticipating, Seline had no clue. She simply continued, "How are things going between you two?"

"Ms. Swift, if you have something to say, just say it," Hendrix replied, glancing pointedly at his watch. His impatience was obvious.

Seline naturally noticed, but she

wasn't bothered. She kept smiling as she said, "Well, I went shopping with Noelle today, and we happened to run into someone who looked familiar. Take a look. Isn't this your new girlfriend?"

At the time, Seline hadn't been able to pull out her phone to take a photo in front of Noelle. But that hadn't been a problem for her. The sales associate at the boutique wasnoveldrama

always gone out of her way to

someone she knew, and eset

please her. So, getting a few photos naturally wasn't an issue for her.

And thanks to the sales associate's position, the photos had captured Angela's

face clearly-along with the man beside her.

The man looked quite young, clearly a college student. He had a sunny, cheerful demeanor-a stark contrast to Hendrix.

With that thought in mind, Seline studied Hendrix closely.

Unexpectedly, Hendrix quickly turned his attention back to Seline. "You're saying you and Noelle ran into Angela together?"

Seline had thought he would fly into

a rage. After all, anyone would find being cheated on unbearable, let alone someone in his position. But to her surprise, he remained calm and instead asked a question she hadn't expected.

Seline was momentarily stunned. After a brief pause, she replied, "Yeah."

Hendrix said nothing more and simply tossed the phone back to her. He then turned and got into his car.
