Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Finding Averi

“Was it because of Kyla?” Sadie’s voice was sharp, accusatory. “Because she got hurt, you just threw Averi aside?!” Her eyes bored into Noah, demanding answers.

Noah’s jaw tightened, his expression clouding over. Silence stretched between them, heavy and suffocating.

“I didn’t throw him aside,” he finally muttered. “Samuel took him home. It’s just-”

“Just what?” Fury overtook Sadie. She seized Noah’s collar, yanking him closer. “Just that you were too busy taking care of your girlfriend to care about my son?”

Noah’s face went rigid. “Sadie…”

Sadie staggered backward, her legs giving way as she crumpled to the ground. Her hands covered her face, muffling the sob that tore from her throat. “You don’t care about him at all,” she choked out, her voice breaking. “All that matters to you is Kyla. No matter what I do, no matter what Averi does, we’ll never mean as much to you as she does.”

All this time, she had clung to the belief that somewhere in Noah’s heart, there was a place for her and Averi, that he felt something–anything–for them.

But she had been wrong. It had been nothing more than a cruel illusion.

The storm of emotions raging in her heart might have meant nothing to him- but her lips trembled as she sobbed, the weight of it all crushing her.

Noah said nothing. He simply stepped forward, his arms encircling her, lifting her from the cold ground and pulling her into a firm embrace. “Sadie, I’m going to find him and bring him back to you.” His voice was low, steady. “I swear.”

Sadie’s breath hitched as she struggled against his hold, shoving at his chest.

“Let go of me!” Her voice was raw, thick with anguish.

But he only held her tighter, his chin resting gently against her head. “I won’t let go–neither of you,” he whispered, as if it

was all he had left to cling to.

Suddenly, a sharp ringtone sliced through the tense air.

Noah tensed before lifting his phone.

“Mr. Wall,” someone said on the other end, voice hushed but urgent. “Earlier this evening, Mrs. Isabel Wall arrived at the Myrtlewood Estate, saw Averi, and took him with her.”

The words hit Sadie like a physical blow.

Her head snapped up, eyes wide with shock and growing rage.

“Isabel!” The name left Sadie’s lips like a curse. She was trembling with fury and disbelief.

Noah’s face darkened.

He ended the call and gripped Sadie’s hand tightly. “Let’s go!”

A shiver crawled down Sadie’s spine, leaving her momentarily frozen.

What did Isabel want from Averi?

Neither Sadie nor Noah spoke during the drive. The silence in the car was thick, suffocating.

The sleek black vehicle came to a smooth stop before the Wall Manor,

Without hesitation, they stepped out, pushing open the heavy, carved wooden doors.

Laughter spilled from the living room, warm and lively, completely at odds with the turmoil in Sadie’s chest.
