Chapter 81 For the next few days , Hendrix didnt reach out to her , but Noelle kept receiving cakes from different dessert shops every day .
And not just one cake at a time .
At first , Noelle tried to refuse them , but the delivery people wouldnt even give her the chance .
They would simply tell her their task was to deliver the cake , and whatever she chose to do with it was up to her .
With no other choice , Noelle reluctantly accepted the cakes After days of eating them , she finally couldnt take it anymore .
She called Hendrix .
Stop sending me cakes .
Why ? I thought you liked them .
Hendrix sounded unusually cheerful , with a laugh barely contained in his voice .
Noelle felt like he was doing it on purpose .
She liked them , right ? So , he would just keep sending them until she threw up .
Noelle didnt respond and just hung up the phone .
Hendrix had intended to say more , but he was taken aback for a moment when he heard the click of the call ending .
He checked the phone , confirming she had actually hung up .
And then , he couldnt help but laugh .
This time , it was laughter out of frustration .
He thought Noelles temper was really starting to show , or maybe it had always been like this , and she had just stopped pretending around him .
But in a way , he supposed it was a good thing .
It was better than how lifeless she used to be .
Just as Hendrix was reflecting on this , there was a knock at the door .
Mr.
Freeman , you mentioned wanting me to keep an eye on the auction for Mr.
Yorks painting .
Its scheduled for the end of the month in the city of Zenvora , Dan said , placing an invitation on Hendrixs desk .
Hendrix hummed in response .
Dan wasnt in a hurry to leave .
He simply stood there , staring at Hendrix .
Hendrix raised an eyebrow .
Is there something else ? Someone from Freeman Manor called .
They said they couldnt reach you on your phone .
They want you to come for dinner tomorrow night .
I got it .
After getting a reply from Hendrix , Dan seemed to finally relax and turned to leave .
Once the door closed behind him , Hendrix quickly sent Noelle a message .
Originally , he had planned to ask her to meet at Percy Gardens tonight .
But before he hit send , he changed his mind .
Instead , he grabbed his keys and stood up .
This was Hendrixs second time coming to Serene Street .
This time , he didnt have to navigate through the winding roads .
As soon as he parked his ca he spotted Noelle .
at the street corner , Chapter 1 +25 BONUS She was sitting on the curb , across from a chubby little girl with braided hair .
There was a cake in front of the girl .
A voice from nearby laughed , probably the little girls mother .
Noelle , dont give her any more .
Didnt you see that her face has gotten even rounder ? Hendrix realized then that all the cakes he had delivered were being eaten by that little girl .
He didnt say anything .
Instead , he honked the horn .
Noelle turned to look at him , and her brows furrowed slightly .
Hendrix sat in the car , waiting for her to approach .
Without any other choice , Noelle exchanged a few words with the mother and daughter pair in front of her , then approached the car and got in .
Neither of them spoke at first .
But after they had driven some distance , Noelle couldnt hold back any longer .
Where are you taking me ? she asked .
To eat .
Noelle glanced at the place where Hendrix had parked , her face blank .
Im dressed like this .
Are you want to take me to a fancy restaurant ? Only then did Hendrix realize what she meant .
