Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret

Chapter 900:

Sadie, in contrast, moved with practiced ease. She unbuckled, stepped out, and made her way around the car without so much as a hair out of place.

As she passed his side, she leaned in briefly, a smirk tugging at her lips.

“Mr. Noel, you’re welcome to tag along next time.”

Then she turned on her heel and strutted into the lobby, heels tapping smartly against the pavement. Not once did she look back.

Noah let out a long breath, pressing his fingers to his temple. This woman was becoming increasingly fascinating—and maddeningly unpredictable.

By the time Sadie’s silhouette vanished into the hotel, Jack, who had been lurking behind a nearby pillar, finally emerged. He took one look at Noah, slightly rumpled and visibly rattled, and had to fight hard to suppress a grin.

In all the years he’d known the man, this was a first—Noah Noel, completely thrown off his game. And it was all Sadie’s doing. Honestly, it was a rare treat to behold.

Still, despite his inward amusement, Jack managed to school his expression into one of mild, professional concern.

“Mr. Noel,” he said, stepping closer and lowering his voice, “would you care for some water? Might help you settle your nerves.”

Noah looked up, his icy glare sharp enough to freeze the air between them. Jack instantly regretted his comment. He straightened up, clearing his throat and erasing all traces of mirth from his face. That glare could send a man to an early grave.

Jack figured it was best not to push his luck. He wisely fell silent.

Meanwhile, Sadie was already making her way back to her suite, entirely unbothered. A small blur shot out from behind the living room sofa like a little rocket and launched straight into her arms.noveldrama

“Mommy!”

Sadie immediately crouched down, catching the bundle of energy in a tight embrace. The familiar, sweet scent of Averi washed over her, and in that moment, every trace of exhaustion and stress from the past few days seemed to dissolve.

She gently tousled his soft hair, her voice instinctively dropping to a tender murmur.

“Averi? Wait, what are you doing here?”

Still nestled in her arms, Averi looked up at her with wide, shining eyes.

He pouted, his little face full of complaint.

“I missed you so much, Mommy! So I asked Breck to bring me all the way to Beversea to find you!”

Without waiting for a response, Averi flung his little arms around Sadie’s neck and planted a big, smacking kiss on her cheek.

“Mommy, I missed you this much!” he declared, stretching his arms as far as they could go.

Sadie’s heart melted into a puddle. That tiny embrace, that earnest affection—it pierced straight through her armor. Three long years of late nights, boardroom battles, and endless work had stolen moments like this from her. Moments she could never get back.
