Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101 Wedding Anniversary Party

Escaping in high heels would prove challenging.

Yet, going without them would surely raise Noah’s suspicions.

With a sigh, Sadie forced herself to put on the shoes.

There was a knock at the door.

“Mrs. Wall, you need to be going,” a servant’s voice called respectfully from the other side.

Taking a quick breath, Sadie concealed her phone against her chest securely and then opened the door.

Noah was casually reclining on the sofa downstairs, examining some paperwork.

At the sound of footsteps, he glanced up, giving Sadie a thorough once–over.

Today, there was a noticeable change in Sadie.

She appeared more poised and self–assured.

“What a hassle,” Noah muttered under his breath, visibly annoyed yet unable to conceal a spark of admiration.

Dismissing his remark, Sadie strode confidently towards the exit, pausing as she waited for the driver to open the door.

At that moment, Kyla descended the stairs, an elegant handbag in hand, her movements graceful and effortless.

“Noah, wait up,” Kyla called out sweetly, hooking her arm through his as they walked.

A slight frown marred Sadie’s features; she wasn’t in the mood to watch their flirtatious interaction along the way.

Above all, Sadie needed a moment to slip away.

“This car is too small,” she said decisively, her tone full of intent.

Noah chuckled dismissively, thinking Sadie was just being difficult.

“Bring around a different car,” he commanded the driver, his voice tinged with derision.

A stretch Lincoln soon rolled up to the front door.

Sadie compressed her lips.

Noah quietly relished Sadie’s evident annoyance.

“Come on, what are you waiting for? Get in,” he said impatiently.

Silently, Sadie climbed into the car and closed the door behind her.

She watched the streets rush by, the outside world a blur as she meticulously planned her next move.

Before they arrived at their destination, she had to devise a meticulous plan.

Kyla remained close to Noah, her voice sweet as she said, “Noah, these leather seats are so comfortable. They must be

imported from Ivernia, right?”

Her hand subtly grazed Noah’s, her tone flirtatious.

Across from them, Sadie looked out the window with an impassive face, seemingly unaffected by her surroundings.

She kept her gaze fixed outside.

Kyla, smirking at Sadie’s indifference, teased, “Noah, look. Sadie isn’t even saying anything.”

Occasionally, Noah’s eyes wandered to Sadie.

Tonight, her silence was deep, unsettling him.

The car grew quiet, punctuated only by Kyla’s sporadic laughter.

Eventually, they pulled up to the Pearl Hotel’s grand entrance.

The entryway was brightly lit, swarming with guests in fine attire.

As they disembarked, Kyla naturally tried to link arms with Noah, but he deftly sidestepped her.

He approached Sadie instead, taking her slightly cold hand in his.

When Sadie instinctively pulled back, Noah tightened his hold and whispered, “Remember your place.”

At that moment, Sadie realized she was still bound to him as his wife and reluctantly accepted his arm.

Her face remained unsmiling, her expression laced with sarcasm.

She wondered who he was performing for. Was it Kyla?

Sadie glanced at Kyla.

A flicker of resentment was evident in Kyla’s eyes.

Inwardly, Sadie scoffed.

Lights bathed both Sadie and Noah as guests gathered, praising their apparent harmony.

“Mr. and Mrs. Wall, what a beautiful couple you make!”

“Mrs. Wall, you look marvelous today. That dress is a perfect fit for your style.”

“The love between Mr. and Mrs. Wall is truly something to behold.”

While Sadie heard the flattery, it left her heart untouched.

She was desperate for any reason to escape this overwhelming atmosphere.

“I need to use the restroom,” Sadie said coldly, avoiding Noah’s gaze.

Noah caught her wrist and, smiling enigmatically, suggested, “Let me accompany you.”

Sadie briskly freed her hand, her voice low and tense as she hissed, “Have you lost your mind?”
