Chapter 103 Noelle and Hendrix had never shared a bed before .
No matter how exhausted he left her , she would always remember to return to her own room .
In truth , Noelle had always felt that they werent really husband and wife .
They were more like partners , both in bed and in life .
To Noelle , lying together in the same bed without doing anything was far more intimate than sex .
Only people who were truly in love could do that .
And she and Hendrix clearly werent .
Now , she crouched beside the bed , watching him as he slept .
She was very familiar with his face .
She could clearly picture the sharp lines of his features even with her eyes closed .
When she was younger , she had drawn his face more times than she could remember .
Back then , Hendrix , in a crisp white school uniform , had been the center of attention at their school .
Then , he grew up .
His face became more striking and refined with age .
His elegant demeanor only intensified .
Noelle always felt worlds apart from him even when he was standing right in front of her.
As Noelle lost herself in these thoughts , Hendrix suddenly opened his eyes , Their gazes met .
Hendrixs brows furrowed instantly , and his sharp , icy stare pierced through her .
Noelle froze for a moment before standing to leave .
But just as she turned , Hendrix grabbed her hand and pulled her down .
She fell against him , her freshly dried hair spilling onto his bare chest .
The strands brushed against his skin , causing a faint tickle as she moved .
Hendrixs brows knitted slightly at the sensation .
Without a word , he flipped her over , pinning her beneath him Now , it was Noelles turn to frown .
She let out a soft hiss .
Youre pulling my hair ! Hendrix ignored her and reached for the hem of her shirt , ready to strip it away , but then , he paused as he thought of something Noelle looked at him in confusion .
A moment later , Hendrix pressed his hand over her eyes .
Go to sleep .
His voice was tense , almost rigid .
Noelle suddenly remembered that this place had terrible soundproofing .
This realization left her even more baffled as to why Hendrix chose to stay in the first place .
Did he need comfort after uncovering Geralds secret ? She didnt think so .
Noelle didnt claim to truly know Hendrix , but she knew he wasnt one to value family ties .
The idea that he was heartbroken or angry over this secret seemed implausible .
However , she didnt press on Since Hendrix told her to close her eyes and sleep , she would .
Her long lashes brushed against his palm as her eyes fluttered shut .
Hendrixs hand stiffened slightly .
The faint tickle from her lashes seemed to spread , moving from his chest to his palm , then radiating through his entire body.

Then , Noelles body froze , and she shifted slightly , trying to put some space between them .
Hendrixs lips pressed into a thin line .
He grabbed her hand and pressed it firmly against his lower abdomen , This time , Noelles eyes snapped open .
I thought you said to sleep ? she asked .
Hendrix had a straight face as he guided her hand to pull off the towel wrapped around his waist .
You can sleep , he said flatly .
