Chapter 377 Hendrix did not call Noelle out .
Instead , he walked over and loosened the tie a little .
Their cold fingers came into contact .
Noelle was accustomed to that , but Hendrix flinched , his finger recoiling a little .
Soon , he acted as though nothing had happened and adjusted the tie .
Didnt you say youd bring me for a prenatal checkup ? When is that ? asked Noelle .
He slowly turned toward her .
They stared at each other .
This time , her eyes were calm and peaceful , devoid of the anger and resentment from yesterday .
He broke into a smile and replied , Lets do that another day .
Ive been busy these few days .
I could go to the hospital by myself- No , he cut her off .
Bending over , he stared at her with piercing eyes .
Penny , you know I cant set you free right now .
How long are you going to keep me here ? Until youre willing to stay .
While speaking , he gently placed a hand on her cheek .
I know youre faking it now , but thats okay .

I wont hold it against you ! You dont have to do that , though .
You can never fool me with your little tricks .
Got it ? Noelle stopped speaking , but her tightly pursed lips started to tremble .
Hendrix seemed amused at her response .
Smiling , he said , Just stay here and have a good rest .
Eat well .
Got it ? If you dont , Ill have the doctor visit daily to sedate you .
As you know , the sedative is a drug its not good for the baby .
It might cause deformities .
Dont worry .
Even if the baby is deformed , Ill still make you give birth to it .
And Ill do my best to raise it for life .
But as the mother , wont you feel sorry for your child ? Till now , Noelle regretted making that horrible remark yesterday in a fit of temper .
Now , Hendrix had retaliated with equally cruel remarks .
And his was way worse .
Each word felt like a stab to her heart .
He hit where it hurt because he knew her too well .
She didnt need to regret her actions .
She fell silent and looked away , unwilling to spare him one more look .
Hendrix didnt care .
After pulling his hand away , he turned round to leave the room .
Soon , one of the maids entered with food for Noelle .
Mrs.
Freeman , do you want to eat something ? She was prepared for Noelle to turn down the food , but to her surprise , Noelle agreed to eat .
Delighted , she served Noelle the food and said , This is the right way .
Mrs.
Freeman , you shouldnt be stubborn .
Think of your baby ! You and Mr.
Freeman should get along happily as a married couple … Noelle merely shoved the food into her mouth without any expression .
After eating , she stared at the maid .
Can you lend me your phone ? I need to make a call .
1/2 But … ..
Dont worry .
Do you think Im capable of doing anything in my current state ? Im just calling a friend to tell them .
Im fine .
After some hesitation , the maid finally offered her phone .
Noelle immediately dialed a Mondivera number .
