The sway and slide of love novel

Chapter 162 As Sandra spoke , she slowly slid her shoulder strap off .

Herskin seemed to glow under the dim light .

But Hendrix only glanced at her briefly before saying firmly and coldly , I thought I made myself very clear the last time we were at Freeman Manor .

Sandra froze .

She couldnt help but recall that moment when he had pushed her away after she tried to kiss him at the entrance of Freeman Manor .

This time , she cast away all of her dignity and threw herself at him , wrapping her arms around him tightly .

Rix , I really , really like you .

Even if we dont get married , I just want to do it once with you .

I want to give my most precious first time to the man I love the most .

So Rix , please take me ! Sandras eyes were filled with tears .

Her tear streaked face made her look so delicate and pitiful that anyone who saw it would find it hard to remain unmoved .

However , after glancing at her , Hendrix calmly pushed her away .

I only see you as a sister .

Impossible ! You were so kind to me before ! If it werent for Noelle , we would already be married .

If you didnt like me , why did you shower me with so many expensive gifts ? If you didnt like me , why did you hold me ? Rix , you can fool me , but can you really fool yourself ? You- Even without Noelle , I still wouldnt marry you , Hendrix interrupted her .

Sandra looked at him in disbelief .

What did you just say ? Because I have no desire for you .

Thats why well never be husband and wife , said Hendrix , delivering the final blow .

Humiliation ! It was absolute and utter humiliation ! Sandra felt as if her dignity had been crumpled up and thrown roughly on the ground .

She knew she wasnt really a Swanson .

That was why she worked so hard to please Craig and Matilda .

In fact , she had always put her real self on the back burner when it came to interacting with those around her .

But she also knew she was beautiful .

She maintained a strict fitness routine , worked hard to lose weight , and even resorted to aesthetic treatments to perfect her appearance .

She did all that because she was keenly aware that her beauty was her only leverage .

Yet now , Hendrix told her that he had no desire for her ? Sandra was rendered speechless .

She fixed her eyes on Hendrixs retreating figure .

It wasnt until he walked out that she suddenly yanked the flowers beside her , sending them scattering , and began screaming hysterically , Noelle ! You bitch ! Its all because of you , you bitch ! Noelle still hadnt gotten back home by the time Hendrix arrived at her apartment .

But he didnt call her .

Instead , he sat expressionlessly on her couch , staring straight ahead When Noelle entered , the lights in the room were all off .

She first placed the items she had bought from the convenience store on the table , and as she bent down to change her shoes , she saw the figure sitting on the couch .

At first , Noelle didnt recognize Hendrix and was so startled that she let out a scream .

It wasnt until she turned on the light next to her that she saw him clearly .

Youre back .

His voice was calm , and his gaze toward Noelle was just as steady , but it still a moment , she quietly acknowledged him with a soft hum .

Where did you go ? he asked .

I went out to dinner with a friend .

Oh ? Was it Evelyn ? made Noelles heart skip a beat .

After Noelle was a little surprised that he knew Evelyns name , but she didnt deny it .

Instead , she just nodded .
