Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 347

Chapter 347 Utterly Incompetent

Blood stained Sadie’s white blouse.

Arlo’s mind went blank, as if struck by lightning.

“Mrs. Wall? Mrs. Wall!” The usually stoic bodyguards now spoke with trembling voices and teary eyes.

They were Noah’s most trusted protectors, responsible for his safety and that of his loved ones.

Yet, under their watch, Sadie had suffered serious injuries.

Would they even survive Noah’s wrath?

Arlo slapped himself hard.

“What are you doing standing there? Call an ambulance now!” He regained his senses and barked the order at the other stunned bodyguards.

Snapping out of their daze, they scrambled to dial emergency services.

“Mrs. Wall, wake up! Hang in there! The ambulance is on its way.” Arlo knelt beside Sadie, his voice shaking as he tried to

wake her.

But Sadie lay still, her eyes closed, her breathing barely perceptible.

“Alert! Everyone, go to full alert and lock down the area!” Arlo composed himself and began issuing orders with precision.

“You–retrieve all surveillance footage from here! And you, ask the locals if they noticed anything unusual. The rest of you, stay here and secure the scene until the police arrive.”

The bodyguards sprang into action, and the studio’s atmosphere tensed.

The sharp ring of a phone pierced the solemnity of the boardroom where Noah was leading a shareholders‘ meeting.

Everyone had been sitting upright, listening intently to his speech.

Noah frowned; interruptions during meetings irked him.

But when he saw the caller ID–Samuel–his heart raced.

Samuel, his most trusted aide, would only call now for an urgent matter.

Noah gestured for a pause, stood, and left the boardroom to answer the call.

“Mr. Wall…” Samuel’s voice came through, urgent and shaky.

“What’s happened?”

A wave of apprehension washed over Noah.

“Mr. Wall… Mrs. Wall… Something’s happened to her…” Samuel’s voice quivered as he struggled to remain composed.

“What?” Noah’s voice spiked with disbelief and anger. “What did you say? Say that again!”

“Mr. Wall, Mrs. Wall was attacked in her studio. She’s now unconscious and has been rushed to the hospital for emergency

care…”

Samuel’s voice faded to a whisper.

The phone slipped from Noah’s grasp and crashed to the floor.

He stood motionless, his mind reeling.

Sadie was attacked?

Unconscious?

How could that be possible?

Hadn’t he assigned bodyguards to protect her in secret?

What had they been doing?

Noah was overwhelmed with fury, his chest heaving.

He turned sharply and strode back into the boardroom.

“The meeting is adjourned!” he announced coldly. “Everyone, stay here.”

Without looking back, he exited, leaving the shareholders in a state of confusion.

“What’s wrong?”

“What happened?”

“No idea. I’ve never seen Mr. Wall so unsettled…”

“Can he just leave a shareholders‘ meeting? Like this?”

“Shh! Just wait here, like he said.”

“Alas…”

The whispers filled the room as the shareholders speculated, but no one dared to say too much.

Noah’s command in Wall Group was unchallenged.

Thus, they sat silently, awaiting his return.

The Rolls–Royce Phantom sliced through the quiet night.

Noah, sitting in the back, exuded an air of tension and menace.

His lips were set in a firm line, his eyes ablaze with both intense anger and palpable concern.

“Give me the full story. What happened?”

Samuel, seated in the passenger seat, wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He turned hesitantly and said, “Mr. Wall, the details… I’m not entirely sure…”

“Not sure?” Noah’s voice sharpened as he slammed his hand onto the seat.

“You’re my chief assistant, and you can’t get information on something this critical?”

議

“Mr. Wall… I’m… I’m still gathering details…” Samuel’s voice faltered, as he nearly broke into tears.

Noah’s fury was unlike anything Samuel had witnessed before.

Usually strict, Noah now seemed like a volcano on the verge of eruption.

“If you don’t have answers by today’s end, be ready to resign.”

“I understand, Mr. Wall. I will find out,” Samuel responded, his voice trembling with the promise.

“What about the security detail for Sadie?” Noah asked, his tone slightly controlled yet still intense.

“It was a lapse by the bodyguards,” Samuel replied cautiously.

“A lapse?” Noah’s eyebrows knitted together tightly. “They’re utterly incompetent!”
