started throwing up .
Hendrix stood silently by her side , watching .
It wasnt until Noelle had finished throwing up that he finally thought to pour her a glass of water .
He handed it to her so she could rinse her mouth , to which she accepted without looking at him .
Do you need to go to the hospital ? Hendrix asked in a voice that carried a hint of tension .
After rinsing her mouth , Noelle calmly teplied , No.
But Noelle frowned and shot him a glance .
If you hadnt carried me like that earlier , would I have thrown up ? But Hendrix wasnt thinking about that .
Since Noelle clearly didnt dwell on it , either , he chose not to press the matter .
After taking a moment to recover , Noelle looked at him and asked , Dont you still have work to do ? Hendrix stared at her in silence .
I think Ill head out first , she said , standing up to leave .
But Hendrix grabbed her hand .
Just wait a little longer .
Ill be quick Without giving her a chance to respond , he turned and headed straight to his desk .
Noelle didnt say anything further and simply sat there quietly .
Hendrix first sent out two emails , then reviewed a few contracts before signing them .
When he came across a contract with a mistake in the details , he immediately called someone in to address it .
With Noelle still waiting , a sense of urgency gnawed at him .
So , when someone entered his office shortly after , he was immediately showered with a barrage of scolding .
The staff didnt dare say much in return , only stammering dut a few timid responses .
Hendrix , clearly annoyed, tossed the contract at them .
Review it again ! Yes , Mr.
Freeman .
Ill go over it right away , the staff replied quickly before clutching the folder and scurrying out of the office .
Noelle had been sitting quietly , but as the staff walked past her , she suddenly realized she knew him , He was the manager of Amity Groups project department , someone she had worked with for the Continental Reach project .
Back then , he had always behaved arrogantly toward Noelle and now , seeing such a stark contrast in his demeanor left her slightly surprised .
As she looked at him , he manager also noticed her presence .

However , given that Hendrix had brought her into the company earlier that morning a fact that had already spread throughout the office he didnt seem particularly shocked .
Instead , he even offered her a small smile .
Before Noelle could respond , Hendrixs cold , stern voice rang out , What are you still standing there for ? Apologies , Mr.
Freeman .
Ill fix it immediately , the manager said quickly .
Not daring to linger a second longer , he hurriedly left .
At that moment , Hendrix grabbed his jacket and walked over to Noelle .
You know him ? Yeah , we met a few times during the Continental Reach project .
1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 362 Hendrix frowned slightly , but in the end , he chose not to say anything about it .
Instead , he simply said , Lets go Hendrix didnt call for a driver .
Instead , he drove himself and Noelle back to Nivis Villa .
As they passed by a food plaza , he glanced at her and asked , Do you want to get something to eat ? No.
I dont feel like eating .
From earlier till now , she had remained quiet .
Hendrix couldnt tell whether she was still upset or if his earlier words had struck a nerve .
In the past , Hendrix wouldnt have bothered to care about such things .
He had never wanted to waste his time on such matters .
But now , he couldnt stop his thoughts from wandering , and his eyes kept drifting toward Noelle .
Eventually , Noelle grew irritated and snapped at him , Why do you keep looking at me ? Only then did Hendrix chuckle softly .
No reason .
Noelle found his smile inexplicably irritating almost as if he was deliberately provoking her , waiting for her to : scold him just to feel satisfied .
Crazy , Noelle muttered under her breath before turning to gaze out the window .
