Chapter 717 Hendrix's tone was light. In just a few sentences, he had explained everything to Noelle.

Of course, he didn't tell her that when he circled back to the house, he wasn't just facing Dylan alone. The others had also wanted him dead.

If he hadn't held May hostage and the fire hadn't grown so intense, Tony and the others would never have let him go. But Noelle didn't need to know these details.

While it was true he had cout of this alive, there was no guarantee he would be that lucky if the ssituation were to happen again.

However, even with his abbreviated version of events, Noelle's expression remained grim. She suddenly let go of his hand and glared at him.

"You asked if I were trying to get myself killed, but what about you?" she asked through gritted teeth.

"I didn't have a choice at the time," Hendrix said. "If I didn't bring Nathan out, the situation wouldn't have been resolved. Besides-" "Has it ever crossed your mind that you might actually die there? What am I supposed to do if you had really died?" Noelle cut him off sharply.

At that moment, she couldn't hear a word of his explanation. All she knew was- none of this had to happen. He could have just returned to Coppersville. He could have walked out of the fire safely.

Yes, it was true that they had the good fortune of running into each other outside the house. But what if she had been faster, or he had been slower? What if the firefighter hadn't shown up and stopped her? She might have rushed into the fire. And in that case, could Hendrix have predicted the outcome? The thought of it filled Noelle with frustration. But more than that, she felt wronged. Her eyes reddened again.

Seeing this, Hendrix was just about to reach out and wipe her tears, but Noelle slapped his hand away. Then, without looking at him, she turned and pressed the call button by her bed.

The nurse quickly arrived. When she saw Hendrix sitting by Noelle's bed, she was stunned and immediately exclaimed, "Oh, no! Why did you pull out your IV? And who said you could move around? What if the wound gets infected?" As she spoke, she reached out to grab Hendrix's arm. But he quickly dodged her.

"First, get a doctor to check her. She just woke up," he said.

At his words, the nurse seemed to finally notice Noelle and hurried off to call for a doctor.

Hendrix glanced at the nurse's retreating figure, then turned back to Noelle. "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Noelle didn't respond. Instead, she turned her head away as if she couldn't bear to look at him.

Hendrix let out a soft laugh. "Are you mad atand givingthe silent treatment again? If you were so angry, why did you run into the fire to savethen?" "Because I'm an idiot." Noelle finally man

Before she could finish, Hendrix suddenly leaned in and pulled her into his arms. "Good. That's the right attitude. Next time, no matter what happens to me, don't put yourself in danger. Got
