Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 213

Chapter 213 Family Dinner

Sace reed in the apartment soon after dinner.

Sade took Averi for his bath, then tucked him under the blankets before gently hulling him to sleep. It wasn’t until he was fast asleep that she quietly left the room

She walked over to her desk and opened her laptop. The bright glow of the screen illuminated her face and made traces of exhaustion all the more noticeable in her features.

Sade took a deep breath and opened a design file entitled, “Dewy Hibiscus“.

When she woke up the next morning, Sadie went through her usual routine of washing up and getting changed. Then she padded over to Avery’s bedside.

The little guy was still sleeping soundly, her long lashes casting shadows on his chubby cheeks.

“Averi, sweetheart?” she called out softly. “Wake up. We need to go to the hospital for your checkup.”

Averi stirred. “Mommy,” he mumbled as he rubbed his eyes and stretched. “Are we going to see Dr. Archer again?”

“That’s right,” Sadie replied with a smile as she helped him out of the bed to get dressed. “Once we’re done at the hospital, I’ll take you to eat something yummy.”

Less than an hour later, Jim was carefully examining Averi and taking down notes on the boy’s condition post–surgery. “He’s recovering very well, and the wound is healing up nicely, too,” Jim said as he set his stethoscope down. “This little warrior is pretty tough, eh?”

“Thank you, Dr. Archer.” Sadie sighed in relief, feeling a burden lift from her shoulders.

“Mommy, may I have ice cream?” Averi chirped as soon as they stepped out of the consultation room.

Sadie thought about it for a while. “Well, a little bit wouldn’t hurt.”

“Yay!” Averi squealed in excitement.

A while more later, Averi was holding his ice cream as if it were a precious treasure. He savored every lick, and his eyes would always twinkle with delight.

Sadie’s heart was filled with warmth and affection as she watched her son enjoy the simple things in life.

“Mommy, look!” Averi suddenly pointed at the television propped up in the hospital lobby. “Look at that man!”

On the screen was the live broadcast of a press conference for the Wall Group. Noah looked as dashing as ever in his tailored suit as he stood on the platform and addressed the media.

Sadie felt her heart clench. Yesterday’s events came rushing back in full force, replacing her earlier joy with bitter

resentment.

She turned away from the screen and her son. She couldn’t let Averi see her misery.

At that same moment, Kyla was limping out of the emergency area.

She had to walk down the mountain in her high heels after Noah left her, and her feet ended up getting cuts and blisters.

She had no choice but to seek treatment at the hospital.

“Damn that Sadie! Why is it her again?” Kyla muttered under her breath, her anger flaring once more as she spotted Sadie

and Averi in the distance.

But before she could do anything about it, her phone rang.

“Kyla, come to Wall Manor for dinner tonight. Nigel wants to host a family dinner,” Isabel said kindly through the phone.

“Sure thing! I’ll be there,” Kyla replied as cheerfully as she could under the circumstances. After hanging up, she threw one,

last seething glare in Sadie’s direction, then limped out of the hospital.

Kyla was determined to make a good impression on the Wall family during tonight’s dinner. If she won Nigel over and

gained his approval, her social status would rise significantly.

Sadie waited until Averi finished his ice cream, then they left the hospital hand in hand.

They were by the entrance when a sleek, black Maybach pulled up in front of them. Sadie acted on reflex, stepping in front

of Averi and blocking him from view.
