Chapter 353 Ive told you .
This isnt your fault , Henu … interrupted her again .
This time , Noelle fell completely silent .
It wasnt your fault then , and its not your fault today , Hendrix continued , his jaw tightening with every word .
Dont worry .
I wont let anyone whos hurt you off the hook Not a single one of them .
Oh , really ? But isnt Erwin your partner ? Wont it be difficult for you if you turn against him ? That shut Hendrix up real quick .
Noelle thought he had finally realized the weight of the situation proving , once again , that profit always came first to him .
The thought made her lips twitch slightly .
She was about to speak again when Hendrix said , Hes not my partner .
Even if he was before , hes not anymore .
But dont you still share mutual interests ? Noelle pressed .
If you offend him , arent you afraid that- This is Mondivera , not Coppersville , Hendrix replied .
The foundation of Amity Group is in Coppersville , so I can give up everything here .
Noelle said nothing .
Hendrix , however , looked at her intently .
So , are you worried about me ? Noelle lifted her head , still not responding But to Hendrix , her silence was as good as an admission .
He suddenly felt an urge to laugh .
Despite everything that had happened tonight and knowing that now wasnt the time to feel any sort of joy , an indescribable sense of happiness still rose in his chest .
He tightened his grip on Noelles hand .
Dont worry .
I wont let him get away with this .
But he holds quite a significant influence here , so for your safety , Ill have someone escort you back first .
And then- Theres no need for you to do that , Noelle interrupted him .
Hendrix frowned , about to insist , when she added , Nothing happened between me and him tonight .
Hendrixs expression changed subtly .
It was clear he was struggling to process the meaning behind Noelles statement .
After biting her lips , Noelle continued , We only had dinner together .
Nothing else happened Hendrix didnt respond immediately , but his gaze slowly settled on her .
Noelle , fully aware of what he was likely thinking , turned her face away .
Didnt you want to check ? Then , just- Theres no need , Hendrix interrupted hastily .
I believe you , Penny .
The moment his words landed , a shiver ran through Noelle This wasnt the first time Hendrix had called her by that nickname .
But in the past , it had always been in certain moments when they were at their closest , their most intimate .
Hearing that one word now , so casually uttered , left Noelle feeling unexpectedly at a loss on how to react .
She lowered her gaze and , in a calm voice , said , Leave .

© +25 BONUS Chapter 353 Hendrix , however , didnt move .
Frowning , Noelle lifted her head to glare at him .
Didnt you hear me ? I told you to get out ! The sharp tone in the words was the same as always , but Hendrix suddenly chuckled .
The corners of his lips curled upward , and his whole demeanor seemed to relax all at once , his eyes brimming with an unmistakable laughter .
Alright , he said .
Then , he raised his hand to gently ruffle her hair .
Ill go .
Noelle instinctively wanted to swat his hand away , but before she could react , Hendrix had already turned and walked out .
She stood there , unmoving .
The crown of her head still seemed to carry the warmth he had left behind .
