Chapter 296 +25 BONUS Noelle had never imagined that returning to Nivis Villa would look like this .
Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say , on the day she left ; she hadnt thought she would ever come back at all .
It seemed Hendrix had dismissed all the maids , as the villa was completely dark when they entered .
Hendrix led Noelle directly upstairs to the master bedroom .
The furnishings inside seemed to have changed , but before Noelle could take in what was different , Hendrix had already pushed her onto the bed .
He hadnt spoken a single word the entire way , though his face remained clouded with anger .
Now , his actions were devoid of any gentleness .
But Noelle had expected this , so she wasnt surprised in the slightest .
She didnt resist either and simply lay there expressionlessly .
Her unresponsive demeanor must have provoked Hendrixs dissatisfaction , because the next instant , he lowered his head and sank his teeth into her neck .
He bit hard so hard that Noelle could feel his teeth breaking her skin , followed by the warm trickle of blood seeping out .
A hiss of pain escaped her lips , and she instinctively raised her hand and slapped him across the face .
She didnt hold back at all .
All the anger and frustration that had built up over the past few days were unleashed in that single slap , landing squarely on Hendrixs face .
A bright red handprint instantly appeared on his tanned cheek .
Even Noelle couldnt help but feel she might have gone too far .
After all , he had to go to the office tomorrow , and walking in with a mark like that on his face would undoubtedly make him the center of attention .
But Hendrix didnt seem to care .
In fact , he almost seemed pleased .

When Noelles slap landed , he even let out a soft chuckle .
His reaction caught Noelle off guard .
Then , without hesitation , she spat , Youre insane ! Hendrix didnt respond , seemingly indifferent to her words His actions toward her grew noticeably gentler .
It was this unexpected tenderness that Noelle found the hardest to accept .
Bastard … She tried cursing , but the words came out drenched in unintended allure .
Not only did Hendrix notice , but Noelle did , too .
So , she clamped her mouth shut and bit down hard on her lip .
But her body betrayed her faster than her will could resist .
In that moment , Noelle truly hated herself .
Of course , her anger was even more directed at the man beside her .
Yet , when Hendrix lifted his head , she immediately turned her gaze away she didnt even want to look at him .
Hendrix didnt seem to mind .
He simply withdrew his hand grabbed a tissue from nearby , and casually wiped his fingers before scooping her up entirely .
Noelle had assumed he would continue .
After all , the heat radiating from him was still palpable .
But he didnt .
Instead , after carefully cleaning her up , he placed her back on the bed .
Then , without a word , he turned and walked into the bathroom .
Throughout it all , he didnt say a single word .
Noelle kept her eyes shut , only opening them once his footsteps faded into the distance .
# 25 BONUS Chapter 296 She was the only one left in the room .
The scene wasnt unfamiliar to her .
In the past , he had always cared solely about his own satisfaction in bed .
As long as he got what he wanted , her feelings had never mattered .
After everything was over , he would head to the bathroom without a word , leaving Noelle to drag her trembling legs back to the room at the end of the hallway .
But tonight , everything about this room seemed to have been turned upside down .
Yet , Noelle felt little emotion about it .
It was as if Hendrix had ignored her repeatedly at the moments she needed support and care the most .
To make matters worse , he even trampled over her time and time again as he walked past .
