Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359 I’m Getting Out Of Here

“What? Are you sure?”

Sadie bolted upright, a sharp jolt of pain shooting through the back of her head. She soon brushed it off. None of that

mattered now,

“And Noah? How is he–how is he handling this?”

Nanette reached out, steadying her with gentle hands. “Sadie, please, take it easy. You’re still recovering. The doctor

insisted you rest.”

“I don’t care–l need to know!” Sadie shrugged off Nanette’s touch, her hands clenched into fists. “Tell me, what happened

next?”

Her pulse raced, her breath uneven.

The Howe and Perry families–powerhouses in the business world—had formed an alliance.

But that wasn’t why she felt this gnawing unease. Wait. Was she actually… worried about Noah?

Nanette hesitated for only a moment before deciding to lay it all out, seeing the worry etched on Sadie’s face. “Sadie, don’t stress yourself. Mr. Wall is a master tactician. Even with the Howe and Perry families joining forces, his strategy ensured that Wall Group didn’t take a single loss. In the end… it was a stalemate. Neither side gained the upper hand.”

“A stalemate…” Sadie repeated the words under her breath, a flicker of relief easing the tightness in her chest.

But something about that didn’t sit right.

Noah Wall–accepting a draw? No. That wasn’t his nature. He didn’t operate on equal terms with anyone.

He dictated the rules, controlled the board, and played the long game to win. Always.

Her brow furrowed as unease crept back in. “Nanette… are you absolutely sure about that?” She fixed her gaze on Nanette,

searching for any trace of uncertainty.

Nanette shifted uncomfortably. “Well… I can’t say for sure. I don’t have direct access to Mr. Wall’s inner dealings…”

Taking a slow breath, Sadie shifted gears. “And the studio… the vandalism. Have the police found any leads?” Her voice was

softer now.

Her fingers twisted the bed sheet unconsciously, her knuckles turning white. She barely noticed–too caught up in the storm of thoughts swirling in her mind.

Even here, in a hospital bed, she couldn’t shut out the weight of work, the gnawing worry pressing against her chest.

Nanette watched her closely, concern evident in her sigh.

“Sadie, please… don’t stress yourself. This is in capable hands. Mr. Ford–Mr. Wall’s assistant has been handling it from the start. If the police uncover anything, Mr. Ford will be the first to follow up.

“Samuel…” Sadie uttered the name, her brows knitting together in thought.

Samuel was Noah’s most trusted confidant—sharp, efficient, and unwaveringly loyal.

If he was on top of things, then surely, nothing could spiral out of control… right?

Nanette’s voice softened. “Sadie, please. Just focus on getting better. That’s what matters most right now.”

“Mm…” Sadie murmured, her voice barely above a whisper, her gaze distant.

She knew Nanette was only trying to comfort her, but her mind wouldn’t settle. Thoughts of Noah spun endlessly in her head, refusing to be ignored.

Nanette’s voice cut through the silence. “Sadie, is there anything you’d like to eat? I can bring you something tomorrow.”

Sadie blinked, forcing a smile. “I don’t really have an appetite. Don’t trouble yourself.”

How could she think about food when all she could think about was Noah?

Then, like a switch flipping, something inside her snapped. “No. I can’t just sit here and do nothing”

Her eyes were sharp with sudden resolve. Without another thought, she flung off the covers and swung her legs over the side of the bed.

“Sadie! What are you doing?” Nanette’s startled voice rang out as she lunged forward to stop her.

“I’m getting out of here.” Sadie’s voice was steady, unyielding. “I can’t just lie here waiting–I need to find out what’s really going on.”

Nanette’s face paled. “But your health–Sadie, you’re still recovering!” Her voice wavered, thick with worry, her eyes glassy with unshed tears.
