The security guard immediately stepped forward and escorted Mabel out .
Mabel had planned to make more of a scene , but with the guard dragging her away , she couldnt get a word out .
In the end , all she could do was shoot Noelle a pleading look , but Noelle remained almost entirely expressionless .
When she first saw Hendrix , she was taken aback , but she regained her composure .
Even with everything that had just unfolded before her , she watched it all quietly , as if she were nothing more than a bystander .
The other onlookers in the room were also sent away .
The caregiver glanced at Hendrix timidly before making an excuse to go buy lunch and quickly turned to leave .
Before she left , she made sure to close the door behind her .
Once the sound of the door clicking shut faded , Noelle finally said , Mr.
Freeman , you can let go of my hand now .
It seemed that Hendrix hadnt even realized he was still holding her hand .
Only when Noelle reminded him did he seem to snap out of it and proceed to quickly release her hand .
But soon , he fixed her with a stern look .
So , when it comes to others , youre this weak ? How could you let her curse at you like that ? I dont see you acting like this when it comes to me ! Noelle first flexed her stiff wrist before finally looking up at him .
Its not the first time shes insulted me like that .
Ive gotten used to it .
fo Her response caught Hendrix off guard .
He was clearly taken aback .
Noelle continued , When I was living at Nivis Villa , she often gave me the cold shoulder and talked behind my back .
Didnt you know that ? Hendrix fell silent .
Of course , he didnt know .
Noelle then turned her gaze toward the person on the hospital bed .
And what she said today … She wasnt entirely wrong .
Its partly my fault that your mother ended up like this .
Didnt you think the same way before ? Noelle didnt mean to mock him .
She was simply stating the truth .
But Hendrixs expression darkened even further .
He turned to look at her , but it wasnt the sharp , intense stare he usually had .
Instead , he simply looked at her quietly .
Yet it was exactly this kind of gaze that made Noelle suddenly unable to meet his eyes .
She looked away and said , Forget it .
Ive already visited her today , and there probably wont be a next time .
As for what happened just now , Mabels your household staff , so I dont have any right to interfere .
But I hope you wont escalate the situation , and please dont drag me into it .
With that , Noelle began walking out of the room .
But the next moment , Hendrixs voice came from behind her , Why didnt you tell me what you were going through back then ? If you didnt like living in Nivis Villa , you should have told me instead of- What was I supposed to tell a husband who only calls me to his room when he needs something ? Noelle cut him off , then added , I came here today out of a sense of guilt for your mother .
I hope you dont take this the wrong way .
Once again , Noelle turned to walk away .
As she stepped out of the hospital room , she couldnt help but feel regret and frustration , thinking she shouldnt have come today .
