Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309 Untimely Sound

Suddenly, a loud growl from Sadie’s stomach cut through the tense atmosphere.

Her face turned crimson, her embarrassment teaching all the way to her ears. She wished she could vanish from the spot.

Her stomach had chosen the worst possible moment to betray her.

She awkwardly covered her belly, shooting it a resentful look.

Noah’s previously stern expression softened at the unexpected noise, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his

mouth.

He found Sadie’s reaction rather endearing.

Averi, observing the exchange with wide eyes, quickly piped up. “Mommy, are you hungry?” His innocent question broke

the awkward silence.

Embarrassed, Sadie nodded, her cheeks flushing even more.

All she wanted was to flee the scene, to put as much distance between herself and Noah as possible.

“Then… Let’s go eat!” Averi said brightly, his eyes shining with excitement.

Sadie instinctively wanted to decline, but meeting her son’s hopeful look made it impossible to refuse.

“Mommy, let’s go have something yummy, okay?” Averi pleaded, tugging at her arm.

With a resigned sigh, Sadie gave in. She couldn’t say no to her son.

“Alright…” she whispered, her voice soft and resigned.

A glint of amusement appeared in Noah’s eyes.

His decision to win Averi’s favor first seemed to be right.

“What would you like to eat?” Noah asked, his voice deep and inviting. He looked at Sadie as he awaited her response.

Sadie kept her gaze lowered, avoiding his eyes. “I… I’m fine with anything,” she muttered.

Her thoughts were too scattered to focus on food choices.

Noah’s expression shifted slightly, a frown forming as he sensed Sadie’s distance.

Turning to Averi, he asked, “What would you like to eat?”

“I want… hmm…. I want KFC!” Averi declared eagerly, his eyes alight with anticipation.

“KFC?” Noah frowned deeper. “Choose something else.” He refused without a second thought.

“Why?” Avert’s expression drooped, his disappointment palpable,

“Fast food isn’t the best choice,” Noah explained gently.

“But… but I really want it…” Averi’s voice trembled, his plea tinged with the onset of tears.

It had been ages since he last enjoyed fried chicken and fries, and he was really craving them.

Seeing her son on the verge of tears, Sadie quickly intervened. “It’s okay to have it once is a while.”

She didn’t want to disappoint her son or argue with Noah over something so minor.

Noah’s gaze rested on Sadie’s face, and he felt his resolve melting

“Alright. Just this once,” he finally said.

“Yay! Mr. Wall, you’re the best!” Averi exclaimed, his excitement bubbling over as he hugged Noah’s leg

Noah tensed slightly at the unexpected embrace.

The sensation was… unusual.

He looked down at the little boy, his features relaxing into a gentle smile.

As she observed this, Sadie’s emotions tangled inside her.

She was torn, unsure whether to be happy or concerned.

She wanted Averi to bond with Noah but was wary of their ties deepening

“Let’s go,” Noah said, snapping her out of her reverie.

He took Averi’s hand and led him toward the parking lot.

Silently, Sadie followed, her heart aching with a bittersweet pang

Noah’s car, a sleek black Rolls–Royce Phantom, stood parked by the curb, its presence a quiet statement of elegance and power.

He opened the door for Averi, then turned to Sadie.

“Get in,” he said, his tone even.

After a moment’s hesitation, Sadie climbed into the car.
