Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339 Deceased

As Kyla stepped out of the spa, she ended the call with a sharp tap, her fingers trembling ever so slightly.

Her heart pounded in her ears, but she forced herself to steady the whirlwind of emotions threatening to consume her.

“Noah actually went after the Howe family…” she murmured, the words barely above a whisper. A flicker of exhilaration danced in her eyes, though she kept her expression carefully neutral.

If–no, when–Sadie found out, how would she react?

The image of Sadie crumbling under the weight of devastation, her world crashing down around her, sent a surge of satisfaction through Kyla.

She could almost taste the moment, savor the despair that would undoubtedly grip Sadie’s heart.

But she wouldn’t be reckless. No, flaunting this openly would be a mistake.

A sudden thought struck her, and without hesitation, she snatched up her phone and dialed.

“Nanette,” she said smoothly as the line connected, “where are you? Meet me at our usual spot. Now.”

She didn’t wait for a reply before ending the call. Sliding into her car, she pressed her foot to the gas, a slow smirk tugging

at the corners of her lips as she sped off.

Vivi’s expression was a thundercloud, dark and brooding.

“Sadie…” She spat the name like venom, her jaw clenched so tightly it ached. Her eyes burned with raw jealousy.

Why? Why did Sadie get to have both Noah and Alex wrapped around her finger?

What did she have that Vivi didn’t?

In terms of family background, talent and looks, Vivi knew she was every bit Sadie’s equal, if not superior.

And yet, Noah saw only Sadie. Even Alex treated her as though she were something special.

The memory of Susannah’s confrontation with Sadie that day replayed in Vivi’s mind, igniting her frustration all over again.

No. She refused to accept this. She would not stand by and watch Sadie revel in her undeserved glory.

A thousand schemes raced through her mind, twisting and shifting like a storm–until her gaze settled on the glowing

screen of her phone.

Without hesitation, she dialed. The moment the call connected, her voice was crisp, cutting through the silence like a blade.

“Saylor, it’s me.”

“Vivi? What can I do for you?” Saylor’s response was polite and so Vivi didn’t waste time.

“Did our studio take on a project from the Eills family yesterday?” Vivi cut straight to the point.

“The Ellis family?” Saylor hesitated for a beat, then something clicked.

“Ah, I see. You’re talking about Lamont Ellis’s wedding–the son of Philip Ellis, right? Yes, they placed an order for a full jewelry set with our studio”

“That’s the one!” Vivi confirmed, her tone chilling by the second. “Move that project up. I want to meet the Ellis family

tomorrow I’ll be discussing the details with them personally.”

“Tomorrow?” Saylor sounded caught off guard. “But, Vivi, that project was scheduled for next month. Isn’t this a bit rushed?

Won’t it be–

“Enough!” Vivi snapped, slicing through Saylor’s concerns with cold impatience. “Just do as I say. Stop wasting my time.”

A brief silence came before Saylor’s reluctant response. He didn’t dare to challenge Vivi any further. “Okay. Consider it

done.”

Vivi ended the call with a slow, satisfied smirk curling at the edges of her lips.

“Sadie… you love the spotlight, don’t you?” she murmured, her fingers lightly tracing the phone screen. “Then I’ll make

sure you get all the attention you could ever want.”

She could already picture it–the mortification on Sadie’s face, the way she would crumble under the weight of the Ellis

family’s scrutiny.

It would be justice. Retribution for the way Noah had disgraced the Quinn family, all for Sadie’s sake. His actions had been

brutal, leaving the Quinns in a precarious position within the industry.

Vivi had never forgotten. And she never forgave.

The next morning, soft golden sunlight filtered through sheer curtains, casting a warm, gentle glow over Averi’s room.

Sadie carefully pushed open the bedroom door, her lips curving into a tender smile as she took in the sight before her—

Averi, rolling across the bed in a fit of laughter, clutching a small dinosaur.

“Mommy!”

The moment Averi spotted Sadie, his face lit up like the morning sun. With an excited squeal, he scrambled off the bed, his

little legs wobbling as he dashed straight into her arms.

Sadie caught him effortlessly, lifting him up and pressing a soft kiss to his chubby cheek.

“Sweetheart, today’s your first day at your new kindergarten. Are you excited?” she asked, her voice warm with affection.

“Yes, I am!” Averi cheered, waving his tiny hands with boundless enthusiasm. “I’m going to make lots of new friends!”

“That’s my boy!” Sadie laughed, tapping his nose playfully. “Alright then, let’s get you ready.”

After dressing for the day, Sadie and Averi stepped outside, their hands clasped together.

The morning sunlight bathed them in a golden glow. Sadie’s tailored business suit, simple yet elegant, accentuated her

graceful figure. Loose waves of chestnut hair cascaded over her shoulders, adding to her poised and professional aura.

Beside her, Averi was the picture of charm, dressed in a crisp blue shirt and suspenders. With his bright eyes and endearing
