Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 Detective

Leanna’s reassurance brought immense relief to Sadie.

The encounter had gone smoother than she had anticipated, and the weight she had been carrying was finally lifted.

“Mrs. Lawrence, I won’t take up more of your time,” Sadie said as she stood, giving Leanna a respectful nod before leaving

the VIP room.

Upon her return to the studio, an employee approached immediately, her expression laden with worry. “Sadie, how did it

go? What did Mrs. Lawrence say?”

Sadie waved off the concern with a tired gesture and sank into her chair, pressing her fingers against her temples to ease

the tension.

“It’s resolved. Mrs. Lawrence won’t push the issue any further.”

Relief washed over the employees, smiles breaking across their faces.

“That’s fantastic! Sadie, I knew you could handle it.”

However, the sense of relief was short–lived.

Before Sadie could fully embrace her moment of respite, she felt a knot of anxiety tighten in her chest.

“This isn’t over yet,” she said gravely, dampening the brief jubilation around her.

“What? Sadie, didn’t Mrs. Lawrence say she’d drop it?”

“The issue with the design drafts is settled, but we can’t just let this slide,” Sadie said, massaging her forehead, visibly drained. “We need to find out who leaked the designs, or we’ll continue facing problems.”

She stood and walked over to the window, lost in thought.

It had been days since she’d had a proper night’s sleep, leaving her physically and mentally exhausted.

She had reported the incident to the police, but so far, they had no leads.

After a moment of contemplation, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

“Hello, it’s me. I need to hire you for an investigation…”

A deep, reassuring voice responded from the other end, “Miss Hudson, please proceed.”

“It’s about the leak of my studio’s design drafts.”

Sadie detailed the situation. “I need you to find the source of the leak and identify the person responsible.”

“Please rest assured, Miss Hudson. We will conduct a thorough investigation and provide you with results as soon as

possible.”

After she ended the call, Sadie’s heart remained heavy.

Sadie hadn’t slept a wink that night, her thoughts dominated by the leak of the design drafts.

The following morning, a knock sounded at the studio door.

“Sadie, someone from the Lawrence Group is here,” an employee informed Sadie.

Taken aback for a moment, Sadie quickly rose, adjusted her clothing, took a deep breath, and opened the door.

A man in a sharp suit and gold–rimmed glasses stood at the threshold, a document folder in hand and a professional smile

on his face.

“Good morning, Miss Hudson. I’m Edgar White, Mr. Lawrence’s assistant.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. White. What brings you here?” Sadie inquired.

“Mr. Lawrence has sent me to deliver this to you,” Edgar replied, presenting the folder.

Taking the folder with a mix of curiosity and apprehension, Sadie opened it to discover a proposal for a partnership.
