Just as she was about to call Oliver , she suddenly heard someone calling her from behind .
Ms.
Swanson ! The crisp voice made Noelle feel uneasy .
When she turned around , she indeed saw Lana walking toward her .
Youre still here ? Lana asked with a smile .
Noelle nodded at her .
Your driver hasnt arrived yet ? How about I give you a ride No , its okay , Noelle quickly declined .
He should be here any moment .
Its fine .
Its getting late anyway , so let me give you a ride , said Lana , linking arms with Noelle as if they were already familiar with each other .
Noelle frowned and was about to pull her hand away when Lana suddenly spotted something .
She excitedly waved at someone across the street .
Im over here ! she called out excitedly .
Noelle had already guessed the identity of the person approaching , causing her frown to deeper.
She wanted to say something , but as soon as she opened her mouth , a cough escaped uncontrollably .
Whats wrong ? Are you sick ? Lana asked with a concerned expression .
Do you need me to take you to the hospital ? Noelle couldnt even get her words out , so she turned her back to Lana and kept waving her hand in refusal .
In the meantime , Hendrix had already walked up to them .
Hendrix , shall we send Ms.
Swanson home ? She seems to be unwell , and her driver seems to have disappeared , said Lana .
Noelle kept her head lowered with one hand over her mouth , but she could still feel Hendrixs gaze sweeping over her .

That wont be necessary .
My driver will be here soon .
But- Before Lana could finish her sentence , Noelle finally managed to pull her hand away .

She simply gave them both a nod before turning and walking away .
Although it was already early summer , she was still wearing a coat .
It seemed like it wasnt enough , so she tightened it around herself as she walked forward .
Her intermittent coughing gradually faded into the distance .
Lana had already averted her gaze , but it was a different story for Hendrix .
While his body remained next to her , his mind and eyes were fixed on Noelles retreating figure .
In his deep , intense gaze was an emotion that Lana could never quite comprehend .

Lets go , he said , nothing else apart from that .
Then , he simply turned and headed toward the car with Lana following closely behind .
Once they arrived at the hotel where Lana was staying , she extended her usual invitation .
To her surprise , after a brief moment of looking at her , Hendrix took her up on her invitation .
