Chapter 292 +25 BONUS Hendrix reached out and gripped Noelles chin .
In a deep voice laced with a clear trace of anger , he asked , Youve fallen for Dylan , havent you ? Noelle didnt answer , but she pressed her lips tighter and tighter .
Her eyes still brimmed with tears , but the moisture only made them shine more brightly , more vividly .
In their reflection , Hendrix could see himself clearly , and he could also see the unmistakable hatred within them .
She hated him .
Hendrix knew that , of course .
From the moment he decided to take this path , he had already anticipated how she would react .
But so what ? Was he supposed to stand by and watch as they became nothing more than strangers who had nothing to do with each other ? If that were the case , Hendrix would rather she hated him .
He could live with that outcome it wasnt something he couldnt accept .
But the one thing he absolutely couldnt tolerate was her heart belonging to someone else .
She could hate him because of the incident with Elm Group , because of who he was , or even because of Craig .
But it could never , ever be because of Dylan .
Yet , as he watched her tears fall , a cold numbness began to creep through his hands and feet .
The question burst out of him before he could stop it , but he regretted it as soon as the words left his mouth .
Not giving Noelle a chance to respond , he quickly added , Its not possible , right ? Of course not .
You and him its just a contractual relationship .
How could you possibly Why couldnt I have fallen for him ? Before Hendrix could finish , Noelle cut him off sharply .
Her words hit Hendrix like a stone , lodging themselves in his throat and silencing him instantly .
He immediately clenched his hands , but after just a few seconds , he let go .
Then , forcing a stiff smile , he said , Youre lying to me , Noelle .
Didnt you hear what I just said ? He has been helping- No matter how he is in front of others , at least hes genuinely good to me , Noelle interrupted him .
Hes kind , considerate , cares about how I feel , and is there for me when I need him .
Isnt it natural for me to fall for someone like that ? Am I supposed to like someone like you , a lun- Before she could finish , her words were abruptly cut off .
Hendrix lowered his head and kissed her on the lips , his tongue invading with a brutal intensity , as if determined to steal every breath from her .
Noelle felt a sharp sting on her lips and tongue , and even the oxygen in her chest seemed to be crushed away .
Her face flushed a deep red as she pressed her hands against Hendrixs chest in an attempt to push him away ..
But Hendrix quickly grabbed her wrist , pinning her hands in place .
Noelle tried to pull back , but she forgot they were on the couch .
Her retreat caused her to fall backward .
Yet , the pain she expected never came .
+25 BONUS Chapter 292 When she opened her eyes , she saw Hendrixs hand beneath the back of her head , shielding her .
Behind it was the sharp edge of the glass coffee table .
Noell wasnt hurt , but the combined weight of their bodies pressed heavily against the coffee table , causing the coffee cup sitting on it to fall to the floor with a crisp , shattering sound , The noise immediately drew the attention of someone outside , and a cautious voice soon followed .
Ms.
Swanson , are you alright ? was Noelle wanted to respond , but before she could , Hendrix kissed her again .

Swanson ? Do you need me to go in ? With that , the sound of someone preparing to open the door followed .
Noelle immediately tensed up , and she pushed harder against Hendrix .
