Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 310

Chapter 310 Noah’s Trick

Noah couldn’t understand why Averi liked such kind of food so much.

Seeing Noah’s hesitant look, Sadie burst into laughter.

Noah gave her a quick look but remained silent.

He continued eating his burger quietly, occasionally looking out the window.

Nearby, under a towering tree, a figure lingered silently, seemingly waiting for something.

This figure was Samuel, Noah’s trusted assistant.

With a knowing wink from Noah, Samuel caught on quickly and nodded in acknowledgment.

Once the meal was over, Noah suggested driving Sadie and Averi home.

Sadie hastily refused. “There’s really no need. We’ll manage on our own.”

She was cautious about becoming too involved with Noah.

“It’s quite late, and I’d rather you two don’t travel alone at night,” Noah insisted, with a calm assurance.

“It’s alright. We…” Sadie said, only to be cut off by Noah’s resolute interjection.

“I’ll take you home.” His voice left no room for further discussion.

Reluctantly, Sadie consented.

Exiting the restaurant, they headed towards Noah’s car. Upon trying to start the car, Noah found the engine unresponsive.

Noah, feigning confusion, muttered, “What’s wrong with this thing?”

Despite multiple attempts, the car remained silent.

“Could it be broken?” inquired Sadie.

“That looks to be the case,” Noah said, his expression one of genuine dismay.

Sadie, growing concerned, wondered aloud, “What do we do now?”

“No worries. It’s a short walk to your place from here,” Noah suggested, surveying the surroundings.

Glancing at her watch, Sadie noted the lateness of the hour.

After a brief pause, she agreed. “Okay, walking sounds good.”

“Just one second,” Noah said unexpectedly.

Sadie, puzzled, asked, “What seems to be the problem?”

Noah replied worriedly, “Given the hour, it’s unsafe for you and Averi to walk home alone. Allow me to accompany you

until you’re home.” His eyes conveyed true concern.

This unexpected offer left Sadie momentarily speechless.

This behavior was uncharacteristic for the Noah she thought she knew.

Emotions swelled within Sadie.

Facing Noah’s earnest gaze, she found herself at a loss for words.

“I’m not sure about this plan,” Sadie said, her voice wavering.

Noah responded confidently, “Why hesitate? As Averi’s… friend, it’s my responsibility to ensure you both get home safely.” His face bore a look of obvious certainty.

Sadie opened her mouth as if to protest, but then thought better of it.

Reluctantly, she responded, “Okay, fine.”

She grasped Averi’s hand, and together with Noah, they started their walk home.

The streetlights cast long shadows of them on the ground.

With one hand in Sadie’s and the other in Noah’s, Averi walked between them, his expression filled with joy.

A subtle smile played on Noah’s lips, his eyes reflecting a trace of contentment.

All of a sudden, Averi halted and said, “Mommy, I’m too tired to walk.”

“I’ll carry you,” Sadie said, bending down swiftly.

“No, allow me,” Noah interjected, lifting Averi into his arms effortlessly.

“Thank you, Mr. Wall.” Averi sweetly expressed his gratitude.

Noah replied with a gentle voice, “You’re welcome.”

Continuing their journey, he carried Averi.

Eventually, they reached Sadie’s apartment building.

“Alright, you can go up now. I’m leaving,” said Noah.

“Okay,” Sadie responded, beginning to enter the building.

“Hold on, Sadie.” Noah halted her.

Turning, Sadie inquired, “Is there something else?”

Noah, with a hint of embarrassment, asked, “I… I’m a bit thirsty. May I come up for a glass of water?”

This caught Sadie off guard.

She hadn’t anticipated such a request from Noah.

Wasn’t this a bit too much?

Sadie’s expression grew stern.

“You should head home, Mr. Wall. It’s late,” she said, her voice cold.
