Chapter 247 Family Issue

Sadie’s eyes brightened. “Really? Would you mind if I came along?”

Alex caught the eager anticipation in her expression and offered a reassuring smile. “Of course not.”

Gratitude surged in Sadie, and she quickly responded, “Thanks so much, Alex!”

Alex observed her excitement, a warmth blossoming in his chest. “It’s no trouble at all; don’t mention it.”

Immediately, Sadie began to prepare for the upcoming auction.

She diligently went through the auction catalog, noted the initial price of the Starlight Stone, and devised her strategy for bidding.

Resolved, she muttered to herself, “The Starlight Stone will be mine.”

Three days later, Sadie and Alex headed to the Cloud Summit Club.

The club exuded grandeur, its opulence glowing.

“Are you nervous?” Alex whispered, picking up on the tightness in Sadie’s features.

“A bit,” Sadie replied, inhaling deeply to soothe her nerves. “The Starlight Stone is incredibly important to me.”

“Don’t worry, I’m here to help.” Alex assured her with a supportive glance.

Arm in arm with Alex, Sadie entered the lavishly decorated auction hall.

Upon their entrance, her eyes roamed the room and landed on a face she recognized.

It was Noah.

He stood out among the attendees, clad in a sleek, impeccably fitted black suit, exuding an air of dignity and elegance.

Beside him was Kyla, wearing a flowing white evening gown.

She stood close to Noah, her smile soft and tender.

Their gazes locked, and the atmosphere around them seemed to turn cold.

Noah’s face quickly soured, his look becoming sharp and cutting.

He approached Sadie with confident, long strides, Kyla keeping pace beside him.

“What brings you here, Sadie?” Noah inquired.

A heavy feeling settled in Sadie’s heart, and she instinctively tightened her hold on Alex’s arm. “I’m here to participate in

the auction.”

“And who are you accompanying?” Noah’s eyes flicked to Sadie’s hand, which was on Alex’s arm, his expression growing

colder.

“Alex, as you can see,” Sadie replied confidently.

Noah’s features turned even more severe. He took a firm hold of her wrist, his voice laden with authority. “You need to

come with me.”

“I will not,” Sadie firmly said, pulling her wrist away from his grip.

“You…” Noah was incensed by her defiance. “You two…”

“Noah, calm down, please,” Kyla said in a soothing tone, her words appearing caring but subtly stoking the tensions. “Sadie. is probably just here to experience a bit of luxury.” She paused, then seemingly casually added, “Alex has always treated

Sadie well, after all.”

“Kyla Wade!” Sadie exploded, her rage ignited. “Stop trying to stir up trouble here!”

“You’ve got it wrong, Sadie,” Kyla replied, putting on a look of distress, her eyes beginning to tear up. “I just don’t like

seeing you guys argue.”

“That’s enough!” Noah interjected, fixing his intense gaze on Sadie. “Once more, come with me.”

“I will not!” Sadie responded boldly, refusing to break eye contact. “Why should I follow your orders?”

“You…” Noah tensed up, his veins throbbing visibly.

“Noah,” Kyla said gently, tugging at his sleeve. “Perhaps Sadie simply doesn’t wish to leave Alex’s side. They…” She paused purposefully, shooting a pointed look at Sadie.

Feeling a rush of anger, Sadie struggled to maintain her composure.

“Enough, Kyla!” she said sternly, her teeth clenched.
