Chapter 575
The truth was, Noelle hadn't planned to go with Dylan today. Even if she no longer had any feelings for Hendrix,
she knew this was Ophelia's memorial service.
Showing up as the ex-wife was already awkward enough, but arriving with Dylan would have been like a slap to
the face to the Freeman family.
But Dylan had somehow found out she would be attending, so the moment she stepped out of the car, she ran
into him. He told her he was also there to pay his respects to Ophelia as well. Given the circumstances, leaving
him behind would've felt too deliberate.
At first, Dylan had tried to play it off as a coincidence, but that excuse was laughable at best. Now, as he brought
it up again, Noelle didn't bother responding. She simply lowered her gaze, staring at her hands.
Dylan tightened his grip on the steering wheel before saying, "lI wasn't trying to pull anything. I just thought, if
you go alone, someone might make things difficult for you. That's why | wanted to accompany you."
It was still a poor excuse. But Noelle didn't call him out on it. Instead, she gave a quiet "mm" in response.
"What did Hendrix say to you just now?" Dylan asked.
"Nothing much. Just small talk," Noelle replied calmly.
Dylan wanted to press further, but the words got caught in his throat. He knew he was acting irrationally.
Hendrix was part of Noelle's past. If Dylan kept fixating on him, all he'd do was push her to think about him even

Because he knew that after everything Noelle and Hendrix had been through, there was no way she felt nothing
for him. Even Noelle had admitted it herself that
a trace of Hendrix still lingered in her heart. But now, how much of that trace remained?
Dylan didn't want to ask, and yet, he desperately wanted an answer.
"Dylan?"
Noelle's voice snapped him out of his thoughts. He turned to her, slightly dazed.
"You missed the turn," she told him. "You were supposed to turn at the last intersection."
"Really?" Dylan forced a smile. "Sorry. | spaced out for a bit. It's fine. I'll just loop around."
"Okay." Noelle paused for a moment before adding, "Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together."
"Sure," Dylan quickly responded,
flashing her a bright smile. "Should we bring Rosie along? What do you feel like eating? I'll have my assistant
book the restaurant."
"No need to go to any trouble. I'm fine with anything."
"It's no trouble at all," Dylan said, reaching over to take her hand. "I'll do anything
as long as it makes you and Rosie happy."
With his hand around hers, Noelle

him. His grip wasn't tight, but for
