Why bother asking when you already know the answer ? Hendrix fell silent , but the hand gripping his cutlery tightened abruptly , causing his veins to bulge .
Noelle quickly averted her gaze .
Her voice still calm , she added , Besides , its our second marriage .
Whats the point of having a big ceremony ? Hendrix was about to argue when Beatrice cut him off , I agree with Noelle .
Youve already got the marriage certificate , and a wedding is just a formality its not that important .
But we should still make a public announcement about the marriage , so why not plan a nice banquet instead ? This time , Noelle didnt argue with Beatrices suggestion .
No.
Were having a wedding ceremony , insisted Hendrix flatly .
Ive already asked the wedding planner to arrange it .
Beatrice frowned , but Hendrix didnt spare her a glance .
Instead , he turned and fixed his gaze on Noelle .
But Noelle didnt give him any reaction at all .
Hendrix suddenly felt deflated .
He was like a fully inflated balloon suddenly released , flailing in the air with a hint of comical helplessness .
Or perhaps more like a petulant child , resorting to tantrums in a desperate attempt to draw the attention of an indifferent adult .
But Noelle merely stood there , watching coldly from the sidelines , unwilling to spare him even the faintest reaction .
As a result , everything he did seemed utterly ridiculous .
Finally , Hendrix stopped looking at her altogether .
He then stood up abruptly and said , I have things to take care of , so if youll excuse me .
Where are you going ? Beatrice asked .
The office .
What about Noelle ? she pressed , though Hendrix could help but hope she might ask how he planned to arrange things for her .
But she didnt .
Noticing the way he was looking at her , Noelle finally glanced at him just briefly .
Then , she simply uttered at faint , indifferent oh Hendrix said nothing more and simply turned and left , his steps brisk and determined .
In truth , there was no urgent maller waiting for him .
He just needed to leave this place as quickly as possible just like a man fleeing in defeat .
After finishing her meal , Noelle hailed a cab and left Freeman Manor on her own .
As she was leaving , Beatrice stood there , looking as if she wanted to say something , but Noelle didnt pay her any mind .
She simply offered a faint sinile before turning and getting into the car .
As the cab merged into the city streets , Noelle found herself momentarily at a loss for where to go .
In the end , she +25 BONUS Chapter 315 instructed the driver to take her to the hospital .
But it wasnt to visit Craig it was to see Cynthia .
Over the years , Noelle had rarely visited her .
It wasnt because she didnt want to it was because she couldnt bring herself to .
Noelle couldnt shake the feeling that she had let her down .
Her life had been far from good .
Even after all these years , all grown up as she was , she still couldnt freely make her own choices .
It was as if the stake tied to her leg had never been removed keeping her tethered in place .
No matter how far she tried to walk , she could never escape that circle .
Cynthia had hoped Noelle would live a fulfilled and happy life , but Noelle couldnt even manage the simplest kind of joy .
When Noelle reached the doorway of the hospital room , he steps faltered .
She could almost see the bed inside , but in the end , she began to retreat .
Finally , she turned and walked away .
Her steps were unsteady , almost frantic .
When she reached the hospital lobby , a voice suddenly called out , Noelle ! The sound stopped her in her tracks instantly .
She turned around just in time to see someone striding toward her .
But before she could react , the person raised a hand and slapped her across the face .
