Chapter 427 Noelle knew that Hendrix was doing this to prove her innocence .
When they entered the private dining room , she wasnt surprised to see that it was filled entirely with men .
Noelle had rarely been seen in public lately .
In the past , she would occasionally accompany Hendrix to public events , but she didnt even attend those now .
In fact , the last time she had appeared in public was at their own wedding .
But the wedding was disrupted midway , so no one had had the chance to speak with her .
Now that they saw her , they immediately began offering toasts with smiles on their faces .
My wife has been wanting to chat with you .
Shes hosting a tea party at home for two days you should join if you have time .
I heard you enjoy painting , right ? I saw a piece at an auction recently .
Noelle hated dealing with situations like this .
Back when she worked at Elm Group , she had no choice but to put up with it .
But now , she didnt want to entertain a single word .
Fortunately , Hendrix noticed her discomfort , so he reached out to take the wine glass from her .
She cant have any wine right now , so Ill drink on her behalf .
Given Hendrixs status , he could have easily refused the drink and taken her away .
But he didnt .
Instead , he drank the glass of wine right in front of everyone .
The smiles around them instantly turned teasing .
Mr.
Freeman , you sure are protective of your wife .
Mrs.
Freeman , youre so lucky ! You two look really happy together .
Noelle remained silent , but seeing that Hendrix was about to drink a second glass , she reached out to stop him .
Are you trying to kill yourself ? You just got out of the hospital .

Her voice was low , but her actions were clear as day to everyone in the room .
The teasing grew even louder .
Noelle ignored them , frowning at Hendrix instead .
He chuckled and set the glass down .
Alright .
I wont drink anymore .
Then , he turned to the others .
My wife has always been a strict one .
I wont be able to join you for the next round , but please enjoy yourself .
And put everything on my tab .
After a round of polite farewells , the two of them finally left the private dining room.
Once they were in the car , Noelle asked Hendrix , Did you do that on purpose ? He raised an eyebrow .
Do what on purpose ? Noelle didnt answer .
She just stared at him .
I just didnt want to join them for the next round of drinks Hendrix admitted readily .
But I couldnt say that directly , so I used you as an excuse .
Chapter 427 +25 BONUS Even though Hendrix said it matter of factly , Noelle felt there was more to it .
Still , she didnt press further .
Instead , she turned to look out the car window .
It was then her eyes met someones gaze outside .
Olivia had been standing there for who knew how long .
Snowflakes had settled on her eyelashes , and her once- round face seemed to have thinned .
At that moment , she was staring straight at them .
Noelle frowned slightly .
Hendrix , however , seemed oblivious .
He simply took Noelles hand and toyed with it in his palm .
Noelle paid him no mind .
They drove off without pause , gliding past Olivia without a second glance .
Noelle pursed her lips .
Finally , unable to hold back , she asked , Did you run into Dr.
Garnet today ? Who ? Dr.
Garnet .
Hendrix still looked confused , so Noelle clarified , Olivia Garnet .
Dr.
Garnet .
