Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270 An Important Meeting

Sadie’s gaze turned icy as she tightened her grip on her bag.

“What goes on between Noah and myself is not your concern, just as Kyla’s affairs are her own,” she declared with resolve.

“Keep up the facade!” Vivi sneered. “Do you really think that string of beads means anything? It’s worthless! You’ll never possess what Kyla does!”

A shadow crossed Sadie’s eyes, yet her lips curled into a mocking smile. “Worthless? Miss Quinn, your familiarity with the items Kyla owns is curious. It’s almost as if…” Sadie paused deliberately, her eyes locked on Vivi’s, which stiffened. After a moment, she concluded, “You’re Kyla’s spokesperson.”

Color rose in Vivi’s cheeks, then drained away as though Sadie’s words had struck deep. “You’re talking nonsense! I’m not

involved with Kyla!”

“Really?” Sadie raised an eyebrow. “You’ve been bringing up Kyla repeatedly since we started talking. Are you trying to defend her, or to chase after Noah?”

Sadie let the question hang in the air, giving Vivi a meaningful glance before she moved to step past her.

Vivi, visibly shaken by the insinuation that touched on her hidden secret, reacted sharply.

“Stop right there!” She reached out, seizing Sadie’s arm. “What right do you have to make such accusations?”

Sadie wrenched her arm away, her expression steely. “Miss Quinn, it’s not for you to decide if I have the right. But your continual provocations–do you really believe they will go unanswered?”

Vivi, taken aback by Sadie’s intense demeanor, struggled for words.

Ignoring her, Sadie turned and strode away.

Vivi watched her go, shaking with fury.

She had always been the center of attention and had never been so publicly humiliated.

At Majestic Ego, it had always been Sadie who outshone her.

Now that she was back in the country, she had hoped for revenge against her old rival. However, Sadie remained a formidable adversary.

Gritting her teeth, Vivi pulled out her phone and dialed a number.

“Hello, I need a thorough investigation of Sadie’s studio, and I need it done quickly,” Vivi ordered, her tone brooking no

dissent.

On the other end of the line, a voice responded with deference, “Absolutely, Miss Quinn. I’ll handle it right away.”

Half an hour later, Sadie pushed open the door to her home.

“Grandma, I’m home.”

In the living room, Laura was seated on the sofa, knitting. She looked up, her face lighting up. “Oh, Sadie, welcome back.”

Crossing the room, Sadie embraced her grandmother gently. “Thanks for everything, Grandma.”
