Chapter 82 In the end , Noelle picked a buffalo wings bar .
The fiery , finger staining spicy wings were clearly an odd match for Hendrix in his sharp suit .
However , Noelle didnt care .
Truthfully , she wasnt sure what Hendrix was trying to do .
Was he just treating her like a tool ? But the way he was acting now didnt really seem to fit that .
Even when they were still married , they rarely ate out alone He would give her jewelry and accessories , but never did he send over cakes like this .
Now , his behavior made Noelle feel like he was … trying to please her .
The thought flashed in her mind , but she immediately pushed it aside .
Do you like this ? Hendrix asked , clearly unfazed as he sat down across from her after they reached their seats .
Yeah .
Noelle nodded .

His calmness left her feeling bored .
Still , she didnt say anything else .
She just focused on eating her meal .
Look at this , Hendrix suddenly said , handing her an invitation he had been holding .
Noelle was surprised , but she froze when she saw the name on the card .
What is this ? she asked .
Its a charity auction , he replied .
Do you want to go ? Noelle pursed her lips and stayed silent , but that reaction was enough for Hendrix to get his answer .
He didnt hesitate .
Well go together next month .
Noelle clenched her fists .
Why ? Why what ? Why take me ? Noelle couldnt help but ask .
Mr.
Freeman , dont you think youre overstepping ? As soon as she spoke , she saw his gaze shift ever so slightly She pushed the invitation back toward him .
And even if I did go , it wouldnt matter .
I don have the money to bid .
Hendrix fell silent .
Noelle didnt look at him anymore and focused on her food SANOU SE + Chapter 62 Then , out of nowhere , Hendrix chuckled .
Do whatever you want .
With that , he stood up and left .
The invitation stayed right where it was It wasnt until he had walked far enough away that Noelle slowly lifted her head , her eyes fixed on the card .
It was just a flimsy piece of paper , but at that moment , it felt so … heavy .
The waiter continued bringing her more dishes .
Just as the plate was about to be placed atop the invitation , Noelle quickly reached out and grabbed it .
Sorry .
I didnt see it , the waiter apologized hastily .
Noelle shook her head in response .
Actually , maam , we have a birthday month promotion today .

In a couple of days , it would be Hendrixs birthday .
