Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 551

Chapter 551 Sorry For The Sudden Visit

Sadie lifted her eyes and scoffed derisively.

“I had no idea the Noel family and the Burgess family had become friends with the Higgins,” she said, her voice laced with

sarcasm.

Noah’s expression hardened, yet he replied without any hint of discomfort, “It has just begun.”

Jack, standing nearby, discreetly looked up.

Just the day before, his boss had unexpectedly directed him to set up a meeting with several elders from the Higgins family,

leaving him confused. Now, he understood the reason.

Unable to resist, he said, “It began yesterday.”

Noah’s cold stare swept over Jack sharply.

The look was enough to immobilize Jack. He pursed his lips quickly. Silence was safer.

Sadie lost interest in continuing the conversation with a man who refused to stay away from her.

She spun around, determined to head straight for Nathan’s striking sports car.

However, before she could move, Noah firmly grasped her wrist.

Silently, he led her to the black Maybach parked nearby.

He opened the car door, hurriedly pushed her inside, then followed and locked the door with a definitive click.

Sadie stared at him, completely taken aback. She tried the door, only to discover it was locked.

She turned to him, her eyes burning with intense anger.

“Mr. Noel, you truly lack any respect for personal boundaries. I’m on my way to meet my future in–laws. What are you

attempting to achieve? Does interfering in others‘ lives amuse you?”

Noah seemed not to hear her, her words seemed to him no more than faint noise. His expression remained stoic.

“Drive,” he commanded with composure.

Jack didn’t pause. He started the engine without saying a word.

Left alone, Nathan stood beside his bright pink sports car, staring after the black Maybach with a look of disbelief.

Another man had taken off with his fiancee right in front of him, yet there was nothing he could do.

He clicked his tongue and gently pressed his fingertips against his swollen cheek.

Those two were both troublemakers. What could he possibly do? He was powerless.

Letting out a slow sigh, he opened the door, climbed into the driver’s seat, and followed the black sedan.

Thirty minutes later, both cars came to a stop outside Higgins Manor, tucked in a mountain at the city’s edge.

Sadie reached for the door handle. Noah’s hand dropped onto hers, stopping her once more.

She jerked her hand away. Irritation crept into her face like a shadow crawling under her skin.

“Mr. Noel, just so we’re clear–your wife is pregnant. And I doubt she has any idea her husband’s out here chasing another woman like a lunatic. If she finds out, can you even imagine what that’ll do to her?”

Noah gave a faint smile. It was the kind that didn’t touch his eyes. Cold. Lifeless.

“And if she does? Then what?”

The sheer indifference in his voice made Sadie’s chest clench with heat. She was furious.

She didn’t bother arguing. There was no point.

She pushed the door open, and stepped out.

Nathan had been waiting outside and jogged over the moment she appeared.

Sadie didn’t even glance at his face. She took his arm and leaned in, her voice dropping low. “Once we’re inside, follow my

lead. Don’t screw this up.”

Her fingers brushed lightly against Nathan’s sleeve, and for a second, his heart tripped over itself. But her warning snapped

him back to his senses.

He nodded and gave her a subtle “OK” sign.

Noah stepped out of the car with calm, deliberate movements.

He watched them–arms linked, sharing a quiet laugh—as they headed toward the manor’s entrance.

Behind his composed expression, something dark stirred. His eyes locked on the pair, sharp with silent rage. The air around

him turned cold, like the wind before a storm.

He should’ve done more last night. Letting Nathan walk away had been a mistake. He should’ve shattered both of his knees.

He shot a glare toward Jack, who was following behind, every step laced with unease.

Jack stiffened under the weight of that stare. A chill worked its way up his back, and he quickly lowered his head.

He ventured, careful with each word, “Boss, want me to grab Nathan later? Maybe rough him up again?”

A muscle twitched in Noah’s temple. He spun to face him and growled, “Did you not see the way she looked at me?”

Another beating would only make Sadie turn on him.

His breathing turned heavy. He tugged at his tie, jaw clenched tight. But after a pause, he swallowed the fury and entered

the house, too.

In the living room, the Higgins elders sat upright, their expressions severe.

Jarrett sat one step below them. His face was unreadable; his fingers tapped steadily against the armrest.

Sadie still had her arm looped through Nathan’s. Her smile was warm, steady, and practiced.

“Good morning, gentlemen. I’m Sadie Hudson, Nathan’s fiancee. I’m sorry for the sudden visit.”
