Have you thought about your future ? Forget everything else the medical expenses alone will be enough to crush you ! Your father … No matter what , I wont starve to death , Noelle interrupted bluntly .
This isnt something you should worry about .
From now on , just pretend I was never found .
Your daughter , Noelle Swanson , died when she got lost at five years old .
In the end , Matilda left .
Noelle sat on the couch in silence for a while before quietly picking up her racket and walking out the door .
At the gym near the high school , Noelle swung her racket with all her strength .
The gym had air conditioning , but after such intense exercise , sweat was dripping down her face , soaking her hair .
Her vision was starting to blur from the sweat in her eyes .
Just as she was waiting for her opponent to serve , a familiar voice broke through the air , Let me play for a while .
Her temporary partner , a college student by the looks of him , didnt refuse .
He simply nodded and tossed the ball to the newcomer before heading to the side to take a water break I knew youd be here , Maxwell said as he looked at Noelle She didnt respond , focusing intently on the ball in his hand .
Look at you , all sweaty .
Take a break , Maxwell added .
Noelle stared at him for a moment .
When she realized he wasnt planning on playing with her , she turned around and went to find another partner .
But Maxwell quickly caught up and grabbed her hand .
Let go of me .
Maxwell didnt answer .
He simply pulled her in the opposite direction .
Maxwell Quinlan , let go of me ! Noelle pushed and shoved at him repeatedly , but Maxwells strength was too much for her .
She couldnt break free .
Finally , with a sudden pull , he yanked her into his arms .
She tried to struggle , but Maxwell tightened his hold around her .
If it hurts , just cry it out .
Dont worry .
No ones watching .
His words froze Noelle in place .
The hand she had raised finally dropped , and even the racket fell to the ground .

Even though she knew it was like rotten flesh , it still tore at her heart when that piece of flesh was finally cut away .
Mr.

Hendrix finally shifted his gaze away and turned his head .
The person followed his gaze and looked over , but Hendrix stepped in front to block their view before they could spot anything .
Its a bit crowded today .

Hendrix followed the man without hesitation .
