Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 Contentment

Sadie pushed open the grand doors of Myrtlewood Estate and was immediately enveloped by its familiar warmth.

The tension from the studio began to dissolve, replaced by a comforting sense of relief.

She slipped into her slippers and casually placed her bag on the entryway cabinet.

“Mom!” A crisp voice echoed from the living room, followed by the pitter–patter of small feet rushing towards her.

Averi, her beloved son, had just returned from his study trip in Slimron.

“Sweetheart, I missed you so much!” Sadie enveloped Averi in a tight hug, planting a kiss on his soft hair.

“Mom, I missed you too!” Averi looked up with bright, joyful eyes. “Slimron was so much fun. Let me tell you all about it…”

Averi grabbed Sadie’s hand, his excitement palpable as he began to recount his adventures.

“We went to the aquarium and saw so many fish, and dolphins that danced…” Averi’s hands fluttered as he mimicked the dolphins, his enthusiasm infectious.

As Sadie watched her son’s animated expressions, her heart swelled with affection.

The stress of the studio and Vivi’s provocations faded into the background, replaced by the simple joy of being with her son.

“And we also visited the science museum where they had amazing robots…” Averi continued, barely pausing for breath.

Sadie listened intently, interjecting with questions and reveling in his excitement.

The delight in Averi’s voice and the sparkle in his eyes filled her with profound happiness and contentment.

“Mom, guess what? I made a new friend named Leon Powell. We played games and did experiments together.” Averi beamed as he produced a photo from his pocket.

The picture showed two little boys standing shoulder to shoulder, smiles wide.

Seeing the photo, Sadie felt a warm surge of joy.

She was thrilled that Averi had made a new friend and experienced such enriching adventures.

“Mom, can you come with me to Slimron next time? We can visit the aquarium, the science museum, and more!” Averi pleaded, tugging at her hand.

“I promise, sweetheart. Once things settle down, we’ll go together, okay?” Sadie stroked Averi’s hair, her voice soft with a touch of apology.

“Okay!” Averi exclaimed, leaping up to give Sadie a big, joyful hug.

Sadie hugged her son tightly, her heart swelling with love. She knew she had to surmount all challenges for Averi’s sake

and win this battle.

“Mom, I’m so hungry!” Averi complained, rubbing his tummy and giving her a pitiful look.

“Alright, let’s get something to eat,” Sadie replied, taking Averi’s hand and leading him to the kitchen.

“Could you please prepare dinner for us?” Sadie requested of the cook.

The cook nodded and quickly set to work.

Sadie and Averi took their seats at the dining table, chatting happily as they awaited their meal.

Soon, the table was laden with an array of delicious dishes, the soft light from the crystal chandelier casting a warm glow over the elegant tableware.

Averi inhaled the enticing aromas, his eyes alight with excitement.

“Wow! It’s glazed chicken! I love glazed chicken the most!” Averi beamed, his hands ready to dive in.

Sadie laughed and gently chided him, “Wash your hands first, my little foodie.”

Averi hopped down and scampered to the bathroom.

The sound of running water filled the air as Sadie looked on, her heart filled with affection for her energetic little boy.

Once his hands were clean, Averi hurried back to the table, grabbed a fork, and eagerly took a bite of the glazed chicken.

“Mmm! So delicious!” Averi mumbled through his bites.

Sadie smiled warmly, watching her son eat with such gusto, her heart brimming with happiness and contentment.

“Mom, why doesn’t Mr. Wall join us for dinner today?” Averi suddenly asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.

Sadie’s smile wavered slightly, her grip on her fork tightening.

She paused, unsure how to explain Mr. Wall’s absence.

The atmosphere at the table shifted subtly.
