Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 328

Chapter 328 Intrigued

Noah manipulated those around him like a puppeteer with his strings, while Sadie found herself a mere pawn in his elaborate game, powerless over her own destiny.

“Grandma, how are you? Are you still in pain?” Sadie asked, suppressing the bitterness within her.

She watched Laura intently, not wanting to overlook any detail.

“I’m fine now, Sadie. Really,” Laura assured her with a kind smile. “I just miss you and Averi.”

The mention of Averi renewed the pain in Sadie’s heart.

Sadie strove for calm, but her voice still betrayed a hint of emotion. “Grandma, both Averi and I are well.”

“Good. Good.”

A gentle pat from Laura on Sadie’s hand conveyed her affection and encouragement.

Sadie nodded and managed a forced smile.

She hid her vulnerability from Laura, not wanting to add to her worries.

With resolve, Sadie composed herself, aiming to show strength.

Meanwhile, in a lavish banquet hall, the clinking of glasses and the low murmur of conversations filled the air amid the

rustling of fine gowns.

Noah, impeccably dressed in a tailored suit, commanded attention with his authoritative presence, attracting every eye in

the room.

He held a glass of red wine, swirling it slowly, his expression unreadable.

“Mr. Wall, you truly are a rising star!”

“With you at the helm, Wall Group will surely soar to new heights.”

“I couldn’t agree more.”

The crowd kept lavishing Noah with praise.

He responded with a polite, distant smile, his demeanor cool and detached.

Just then, a familiar figure made her way toward him.

Vivi, in a stunning red gown that highlighted her elegant posture, approached. Her makeup was perfect, enhancing her striking beauty.

“Mr. Wall, what a coincidence to see you here,” she said, her voice softly flirtatious.

A business associate, unaware of the truth, asked, “Mr. Wall, is this your wife?”

With a slight frown, Noah cast a glance at Vivi and stated flatly, “No, she is not.” 0.0%

His words quenched the room’s enthusiasm.

The business associate’s smile faltered, and he uttered an apology, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wall. That was presumptuous of me.

He quickly excused himself.

Vivi’s confident demeanor slipped, but she swiftly recovered, teasing, “Mr. Wall, you’re as unromantic as ever.”

Noah remained silent, his gaze fixed on her.

Under his scrutiny, Vivi appeared slightly uncomfortable. She changed the subject. “Do you know, while I was abroad, Sadie and I worked together at Majestic Ego for three years?”

Noah’s expression tightened.

“What’s that look for? Are you intrigued now?” Vivi laughed playfully, noticing his reaction.

“It’s too noisy here. Shall we go upstairs to talk?” she suggested, catching a glint of interest in Noah’s eyes.

Noah’s frown deepened. He was discomforted by being seen through.

Yet, he agreed, nodding slightly.
