Chapter 342 Hendrix had already dialed the number , and the voice on the other end had already answered with a hello .
But Hendrix couldnt bring himself to say a word .
Mr.
Freeman ? The person on the other end kept speaking , but Hendrix slowly turned his head , his eyes locking onto Noelle .
She stood there , meeting his gaze .
What did you just say ? he asked .
If you really kill Dylan , then Ill kill myself , too , Noelle said , her voice unmistakably clear .
Hendrix suddenly burst into laughter .
It was as if he had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world , laughing .
so hard that he was trembling all over .
But his eyes slowly turned red , and there was the taste of blood lingering on his tongue .
Even so , his voice remained calm as he asked , staring at Noelle , You would die for Dylan ? Yes .
And what about Elm Group ? You dont care about it anymore ? And the one lying in the hospital- Is threatening me the only thing you know how to do ? Noelle interrupted him .
Ive already done what you wanted I married you .
Isnt that enough ? Why must you go after others so ruthlessly ? Ruthless ? Dylan got himself investigated for his own shady dealings .
What does that have to do with me ? And now , youre saying youll die if I dont help him ? Why should I help him ? Is that really all it is ? Just refusing to help him ? Noelle countered .
Werent you the one who just said you wanted him dead ? Hendrix was momentarily at a loss for words and abruptly ended the call .
He remained silent , and Noelle didnt press further .
The quiet between them settled back in .
The waves continued to crash against the shore , their rhythmic sound unchanged by the tension that now hung between them .
Not even a fierce argument or the death of one of them would make the slightest difference to the world .

After all , no one was truly special .
The thought struck Noelle as bitterly ironic : Without another word , she simply turned and prepared to leave .
But in the next moment , Hendrixs voice came from behind her , Why are you suddenly asking me to help Dylan ? Did he contact you ? No.
I asked him myself , Noelle replied without turning around .
And I didnt insist that you have to help him .
After all , like you said , if hes truly done something wrong , then facing punishment is only fair .
I just know him well enough to believe he wouldnt do something like that .
So , I wanted to try to help him .
But since youre unwilling , then forget it .
As Noelle finished speaking , Hendrix let out a soft laugh .
Yes , you know him well enough .
But what about me ? Do you think Id agree to such a request tonight ? You should know its impossible for me to help him .
So , why did you even bother to ask ? Noelle stopped in her tracks .
She knew deep down it was unlikely , but she still had to try .
Even going so far as to 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 342 choose a moment when Hendrix was at his happiest .
Was it because she couldnt resist trying to help Dylan ? Or was it because she couldnt stand seeing Hendrix so content ? Had she chosen this moment just so she could inflict the most pain on him ? Noelle didnt know the answer , so she remained silent in the face of Hendrixs question .
Hendrix , however , chuckled .
Then , speaking again as if to himself , You just wanted to tell me , didnt you ? That in your heart , Ill never be as important as Dylan .
