Chapter 721 "All I can say is that you think that way because you've never truly understood him." Hendrix's words left Noelle momentarily speechless.
After a pause, she finally responded, "But if it weren't for me, you and Dylan wouldn't have had any connection at all. And you wouldn't have almost lost your life because of him." "Hmm, that's true," Hendrix admitted with a nod. But then, he added, "But do you really think I'm the kind of person who's afraid of things like that?" As he spoke, he even chuckled. "If that's what you think, then you're seriously underestimating your baby, aren't you?" Noelle had been frowning at him, but when he used that term of endearment, she froze.

Just then, the flight attendant walked past. Hearing Noelle's comment, she stopped and asked cautiously, "Ma'am, is the air conditioning making you uncomfortable?"

"I'm not cold," Noelle said without hesitation.
Hendrix simply smiled and said, "You'll get cold once you fall asleep. Just take it." As he spoke, he draped the blanket over her. Noelle didn't argue further-she just glanced at him briefly before closing her eyes.
But the next moment, Hendrix suddenly leaned in close and whispered in her ear, "If you neel You can always a ', baby?" Content askme.

Noelle stiffened instantly. Then, she turned to look at him, only to finan with Hendrix grinning with an eyebrow raised. After taking a deep breath, she smiled back at him. "Sure. Thanks, baby." The moment she said it, Hendrix's smile faltered slightly, and something flickered in his eyes.
Noelle, however, didn't care. Having gotten her little revenge, she closed her eyes again.
Suddenly, Hendrix grabbed her hand. She sensed something was off and was about to pull her hand back when Hendrix flashed a smile at her.
"What's wrong? You should've thought about the consequences when you started this." "Hendrix Freeman, don't be
ridiculous." Noelle was startled by his actions and immediately glanced around. Once she was sure no one was watching them, she lowered her voice and scolded, "We're on a plane.
