Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338 A Move Against The Howe Family

Sadie grasped the moment as though her life depended on it, quickly responding, “Alright. We’ll be there right away.”

She pushed Noah away forcefully and rushed out of the living room, unable to endure another second.

Noah watched her depart; the smile on his lips slowly vanished.

His expression turned dark and unreadable.

At the dining table, a heavy silence hung between Sadie and Noah.

Averi had finished his meal and retreated upstairs, leaving them alone.

Sadie ate in silence, her gaze fixed on her plate, lacking the courage to meet Noah’s eyes.

Her heart raced uncontrollably, and she struggled to find calm.

Noah remained silent as well. He simply stared at Sadie, his piercing gaze unsettling her.

“I’m done eating, Mr. Wall,” Sadie announced, placing her fork down and standing to leave.

She was eager to escape Noah’s presence.

“Hold on, Sadie,” Noah called out, halting her.

She paused, turning slowly to face him, her expression one of confusion and apprehension.

She wondered what he could possibly want now.

Noah retrieved a white envelope from his suit jacket and presented it to her.

“What’s this?” Sadie asked, eyeing the envelope with suspicion.

The plain, unmarked envelope offered no hints of its contents.

Noah remained silent, merely holding the envelope closer to her.

His inscrutable gaze revealed nothing.

After a brief pause, Sadie took the envelope.

She opened it and examined the contents- a beautifully crafted card.

Shock crossed her face.

It was an admission notice for the international kindergarten Averi would attend.

The card, elegantly inscribed with the school’s name, included detailed enrollment instructions.

As Sadie read through the document, her expression darkened with each word.

Her eyes stopped on a line that made her heart sink: “Both parents are required to attend the new student orientation at 10

a.m. tomorrow.”

Sadie looked up sharply, her gaze meeting Noah’s.

“The school requires it!” he stated indifferently. “You can let Alex know.”

With those words, Noah turned and ascended the stairs, his demeanor detached.

Sadie remained still, the notice in hand, her mind reeling.

Averi’s parentage… Alex… Noah….

What was her next step?

She began to retreat to her room but stopped suddenly at the base of the stairs.

Someone was there.

It was her grandmother, Laura.

Laura held a jacket, pausing as if she had been about to descend.

Worry and understanding marked her features.

Sadie’s spirits fell.

It was clear Laura had caught the tail end of her conversation with Noah.

Laura’s affection for her and Averi had always been profound. She must be concerned…

Tears welled up in Sadie’s eyes.

She approached Laura and whispered, “Grandma, shouldn’t you be asleep?”

“Sadie…” Laura’s sigh was laden with worry and tenderness. “You and… Mr. Wall, it’s…” Laura hesitated, struggling for

words.

The dynamics between Sadie and Noah were intricate.

Laura recognized Sadie’s resilience.

She had always borne her burdens alone, sparing her family any worry.

“I’m fine, Grandma.” Sadie reassured her with a forced smile. “Don’t fret. Noah and I will manage.”

“Sadie, you’ve endured so much,” Laura said, drawing her into a gentle hug.

The calming aroma of essential oils and the gentle strains of soft music filled a luxurious spa, creating a serene

atmosphere.

Kyla reclined comfortably on a massage bed, her eyes closed, savoring the expert touch of the beautician.

She had invited Vivi for a spa day, needing to ease the tension that had developed since the banquet incident and the m scandal over the photographs.

Vivi appeared to be on the verge of broaching a topic when a phone interrupted them.

Kyla checked the caller ID—it was her friend from the legal department at Wall Group.

Kyla answered the phone, and her friend’s worried voice filled her ear. “Kyla, something’s happened. Mr. Wall has initiated

action against the Howe Group.”

“What? Really?” Kyla jumped up from the massage bed, her complexion draining of color.

She was shocked. Noah had indeed moved against the Howe family.

The Howes had been long–standing allies of the Wall family, with Alex previously as close to Noah as a brother.

“What exactly is happening?” Kyla asked, her voice filled with urgency.

“I don’t have all the details yet, but Mr. Wall’s approach is particularly aggressive this time,” her friend explained.

“Why would Noah take such a step?” Kyla inquired further.

“It appears to stem from some business disagreement in their partnership.”

Vivi, having caught parts of the conversation, also looked concerned.

She vividly remembered the confrontation between Alex’s mother and Sadie.

What on earth was going on?

The atmosphere grew heavy with tension, each woman absorbed in her thoughts.

Kyla quickly got dressed and offered Vivi an apologetic glance.

“Vivi, I just remembered there’s something urgent I need to handle. Please, enjoy the rest of your day here,” she said,

rushing off.

Vivi watched Kyla leave, a wave of disquiet washing over her. After a brief pause, she decided to follow suit and left as

well.
