Chapter 20 Noelle said she wanted a divorce , but Hendrix showed no reaction .
He shot her a look before accepting the papers .
Flipping through the pages , he arrived at the final page and saw that she had signed it .
He chuckled .
Before Noelle could read his reaction , he had torn the divorce papers in half , causing her heart to skip a beat .
Soon , she calmed down and said to him , Mr.
Freeman , I can print a new copy for you if youre unhappy with the one in your hands .
Remaining silent , he tossed the papers into the trash can while striding toward Noelle .
She looked shocked when he closed in , and she instinctively backed off .
She retreated until her waist was pressed against the edge of the table .
The bruises around her waist hurt when she knocked against the table , causing her to draw a sharp breath Hendrix grabbed her wrist .
Noelle , are you threatening me with a divorce ? Or is this your way of giving in to make progress with me ? Your crass tricks disgust me ! She could not believe that Hendrix had described her as disgusting .
She recalled the look in his eyes when he thought he had exposed her intentions .
Hendrix seemed to have spoken up against her not mainly out of the urge to defend Sandra , but he was partly driven by distaste for her so called tricks .
This wasnt the first time he let her down , but Noelle could feel her heart beating wildly .
She opened her mouth , but no words came out .
Oddly , a grin started to spread across her face .
She finally found her voice .
Im not threatening you .
Im serious .
Hendrixs eyes narrowed .
Noelle continued , Whats the point of continuing a loveless marriage ? What else matters to you ? Dont tell me its that bastard from the Quinlan family .
He snickered .
His sudden mention of Maxwell caught her by surprise .
Noelles expression hardened , and her head She looked him in the eye .
snapped up .
Hendrix pressed on , Is he your next lover ? Of course not , she blurted out .
Something occurred to her .
She gasped , Did you go through my phone ? After their call that night , Noelle and Maxwell added each others contacts on WhatsApp .
All he did was share his flight details with her , after which they enjoyed a brief chat Hendrix had misinterpreted such an innocent exchange as cheating .
His assumptions disgusted her .
Before she could speak , he grabbed her chin .
Noelle Swanson , Im not as fake and shameless as you are .
You did everything so you could marry me in the first place .
I assume you would have understood what it meant to many into the Freeman family .
Were not a family you could join and leave as you wish .

Hendrix grabbed her chin with much force .
When he released her , he shoved her backward .
Her body shook , and she knocked her waist into the desk once more .
This time , she did not let out a sound .
Her lips remained tightly pursed .
Hendrix could not care less about her response this time .
He shot her an icy look before leaving .
