Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 508

Chapter 508 Such Intricate Plotting!

Samuel nodded promptly, his agreement immediate. This decision was already a gesture of goodwill from Sadie, born from family ties.

As he was about to leave, he paused as if recalling something, and turned back.

“Ms. Hudson, there’s something else,” he added, his tone laden with implication.

“The media are buzzing about Miss Wall’s act of bravery–her selfless decision to save you. The coverage is quite touching, and many are applauding her generosity and forgiving spirit. Yet, there’s curious speculation about her attire at the event

-why she was in a waitress’s uniform.”

The revelation caught Sadie off guard, her brow furrowing in concern.

Briley’s actions had indeed cast her in a sympathetic light, boosting her public image.

Samuel hesitated, then shared more news.

“Moreover, at Wall Manor, the family elders held an urgent meeting and have unanimously decided that Miss Wall

epitomizes the Wall family’s ideals because of her recent actions. They’re prepared to welcome her back into the family

fold and are interested in your viewpoint.”

Sadie fell silent, weighing her thoughts before exhaling softly.

It was undeniable–Briley had saved her life, an act that not only preserved her own but also reinstated Briley in the Wall

family’s good graces.

Despite Briley’s initial intentions, the current circumstances left Sadie with no choice. If she were to block Briley from

rejoining the family, it could cast her in a harsh, unkind light, potentially damaging the Wall Group’s carefully maintained

reputation.

Thus, Sadie felt compelled to compromise.

“Let’s honor the elders‘ decision,” she stated calmly.

“Understood,” Samuel replied, then left.

Meanwhile, in a plush room at Jazmah Hopevale Hospital, Coyle was on his bed, his expression tense. Half his face was

paralyzed, his eyes misty and turbulent with unease.

He was overwhelmed with anxiety, wondering why he hadn’t received any updates from the person he sent out.

By this point, Coyle had expected the banquet scheme to be a resounding success.

Did Sadie die?

He attempted to shift his gaze towards the assistant who stood nearby, barely breathing, head bowed in apprehension.

With a raspy sound from his throat, Coyle signaled the assistant, who quickly nodded and made to leave the room to fetch

news.

Just then, the door swung open forcefully.

Samuel strode in, flanked by a cadre of bodyguards clad in stark black suits, their imposing presence seeming to chill the room’s very air.

The assistant trembled, legs nearly buckling from fear.

Caught off guard, Coyle stared at the unfolding scene.

Samuel, ignoring Coyle’s strained gaze from the bed, signaled the bodyguards.

“Do it.”

Immediately, two bodyguards advanced and grabbed Coyle.

Coyle, both outraged and panicked, managed a weak protest.

“How… how dare you! Samuel, who…who do you think you are? You, just an assistant, dare lay hands on me?!”

His attempt to wield his status was pitiful, undermined by his slurred speech and drooling mouth, stripping him of any semblance of dignity.

Samuel finally met Coyle’s eye, his expression stoic but his eyes icy.

He said, “At this point, Mr. Wall, pretenses are unnecessary.”

A wave of dread washed over Coyle.

Samuel’s voice was both low and piercing.

“The assassin you dispatched was apprehended immediately. Regrettably for him, he failed to harm Ms. Hudson. Instead,

Miss Briley Wall inexplicably intervened to shield Ms. Hudson from the attack, ensuring her safety.”

He paused, watching Coyle’s expression shift to confusion, then continued. “Ms. Hudson has decreed that you are to be escorted back to your residence in Zupren, barred from ever returning to this country.”

Coyle’s eyes nearly popped from their sockets.

His mouth agape, he struggled for words, but only his ragged breathing filled the silence.

Why would Briley protect that detestable Sadie?

Wasn’t she supposed to conspire with the assassin for a guaranteed outcome?

No, it wasn’t supposed to unfold like this!

A sudden realization hit Coyle like a thunderbolt,

He understood now.

That cursed Briley!

It was all her manipulation!

She had cunningly staged the entire self–sacrifice!

<Chapter 508 Such Intricate Plotting!

Using the assassin he had dispatched, she crafted her own scheme to win Sadie’s trust and garner the elders‘ compassion!

She had exploited him as merely a step in her ascent!

That treacherous daughter!

Despite his years of shrewd maneuvering, Coyle found himself outplayed by his own daughter!

A bitter taste of blood filled his mouth as Coyle shook violently, his eyes fluttering.

His heart seethed with loathing!

Samuel turned away dismissively.

“Take him away.”

The bodyguards didn’t hesitate. They promptly lifted the convulsing Coyle from the bed and dragged him out.

The assistant slumped to the floor, his complexion ashen.

Silence reclaimed the room, leaving a heavy residue of despair.

Meanwhile, in the Howe family’s stately villa, Alex stood by the floor–to–ceiling window, his brow creased with concern.

For some reason, he felt uneasy tonight.

The phone on his desk rang abruptly. He picked it up to find his assistant on the line.

“Mr. Howe, there was an incident at the Wall and Burgess Groups‘ collaboration banquet.”

Alex’s heart clenched.

He immediately inquired, “How is Sadie?”

The assistant reassured him, “Ms. Hudson is unharmed, Mr. Howe. Miss Briley Wall intercepted a dagger meant for Ms.

Hudson and is now receiving emergency care. The assailant, reportedly sent by Coyle, was apprehended.”

As Alex listened to the update, a wave of relief washed over him, allowing his tense muscles to relax slightly.

Briley had taken a dagger for Sadie?

Alex’s fist clenched, his knuckles whitening.

He had sorely underestimated Briley.

Exiled from the Wall family, she had still orchestrated such a desperate ploy to redeem herself, using this dramatic gesture

of self–sacrifice to weave herself back into the Wall lineage.

Such intricate plotting!

Yet, her actions had endangered Sadie!

The mere thought of the peril Sadie had faced chilled his gaze.

No matter Briley’s motives, her actions had jeopardized Sadie, and that was inexcusable.

He strode to the coat rack, grabbed his jacket, and hurried out.

He had to see Sadie.
