Once the crowd confirmed the man before them was indeed Hendrix, they swarmed him with questions and concern.

"When did Hendrix return? And did he cback alone?" If Hendrix was back, what about Noelle? Something about Hendrix's demeanor felt off to Dylan. Before his disappearance, Hendrix had been outright hostile toward him. Yet tonight, he'd greeted him willingly, and he hadn't mentioned Noelle at all.

Left in a hurry? What could've happened? Dylan hadn't even made a move yet. Unless it wasn't about business? He frowned, his expression turning grim.
"Mr. Pritchett, are you alright? You look pale." "I'm fine." Dylan shut his eyes briefly, wrestling his emotions under control before stepping aside to make another call.
His fingers trembled slightly. Only
when the line connected did he force himself to calm down "Mr Swift,n there's something you should know. Hendrix is back."
