Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203 Stonemont

Estate

The vehicle was filled with a subtle fragrance, unmistakably Kyla’s favorite perfume.

Feeling slightly suffocated, Sadie shifted uncomfortably.

Kyla’s eyes lingered on her drenched form, a sense of pleasure apparent in her expression.

Without a word, Samuel ignited the engine and steered the car towards the mountaintop.

Warmth enveloped the car’s interior.

The rain had thoroughly drenched Sadie’s attire, causing it to cling to her figure.

Her trench coat, altered by the rain, now sported darker shades, staining the cream–colored leather seat beneath.

Kyla, noticing the discoloration, feigned innocence as she commented, “Sadie, it looks like your coat is staining.”

Catching Kyla’s glance, Sadie inspected the edge of her damp coat, noticing the change herself.

Today, she had chosen a dark blue trench coat–not a luxury item but still costly. It seemed unlikely to bleed.

Embarrassment flushed through Sadie, yet she maintained her composure and responded, “Oh, is it?”

With a suppressed giggle, Kyla acted concerned. “I’ve brought extra clothes. Why not change into one of them? You might

catch cold in those. And don’t worry, Noah selected these, so they’re sure not to bleed color.”

Internally, Kyla smirked, well aware that Sadie would never accept her clothing; the offer was merely a calculated insult.

Sadie was well aware of Kyla’s motives. She managed a slight, bitter smile and said, “No, thank you for your offer.”

Kyla, realizing Sadie was not provoked, changed the topic.

She shifted her gaze towards the window before inquiring, “By the way, Sadie, what’s your destination?”

“Stonemont Estate,” Sadie answered tersely.

“Stonemont Estate?” Kyla echoed, caught off guard.

A heavy feeling settled in Sadie’s chest.

What a coincidence. Could it be that Noah and Kyla were on their way to Stonemont Estate for the same purpose?

Sadie shivered, a cold sensation creeping up her spine.

From the rearview mirror, Samuel saw Noah’s countenance darken and, grasping the situation, promptly said, “Mrs. Wall, we’re on our way to Stonemont Estate as well.”

Hearing Samuel address her that way deepened Sadie’s discomfort.

With a composed and firm voice, she corrected him, saying, “Please, I am not ‘Mrs. Wall.“”

Kyla’s expression soured at once.

That Samuel–why did he still refer to Sadie as “Mrs. Wall“?

A tense, cold silence enveloped the car.

Kyla’s hands formed fists so tight that her nails dug painfully into her palms.

She fantasized about casting Sadie from the vehicle right at that moment.

Finally, the Maybach smoothly halted at the ornate iron gates of Stonemont Estate.

The rain continued unabated, its heavy drops beating a rhythmic pitter–patter against the windows.

Samuel was quick to exit the car, unfurling a large black umbrella and courteously holding the door open for Noah and

Kyla.
