Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345 Do Something

Susannah suddenly felt dizzy, her vision blurred, and she collapsed to the floor.

“Mom!”

“Aunt Susannah!”

Alex and Lamont cried out in unison, rushing to her side.

“Are you okay, Mom? You’re scaring me.” Alex had never seen his mother so overwhelmed or vulnerable.

Lamont, visibly shaken, tried to revive Susannah by gently tapping her cheek, his voice urgent, “Alex, what do we do? Aunt

Susannah has fainted.”

“Let’s take her to the hospital!” Alex responded instantly, lifting Susannah in his arms and heading for the door.

Before he left, he gave Sadie a deep, apologetic, and concerned look.

“Sadie, I’m sorry… You should leave… I’ll take care of everything here…”

With that, he hurried out with Susannah.

Sadie remained frozen, watching Alex disappear, her emotions in turmoil.

She longed to follow, to demand explanations, but found herself unable to move.

The crowd around her didn’t disperse with Susannah’s collapse; their chatter intensified.

“Oh my! Isn’t she the one involved with Mr. Wall three years ago?”

“Yes, that’s her! I remember now. The newspapers had photos, accused her of wrecking Kyla and Mr. Wall’s relationship, branding her the other woman.”

“It’s surprising, isn’t it? She appears so innocent, yet she’s been involved in such scandals.”

“Exactly! After Mr. Wall, now Mr. Howe? She’s quite the character.”

“Women like her just have a way with men, don’t they?”

“TSK, TSK. How brazen! And to think she’d show up here, as if she can do whatever she wants with the Howe family.”

“I agree…”

Each biting remark struck Sadie like a sharp jab.

She bit her lower lip tightly.

Desperately, she wanted to refute the accusations, to proclaim to all that she was not the other woman. Yet, her throat tightened, rendering her speechless.

In such a hostile environment, any defense seemed feeble and futile, only inciting further attacks.

Chapter 345 Do Something

In the crowd, a woman in a business suit observed Sadie with a cold detachment.

Her name was Aliza Perry, a secretary in the CEO’s office at Howe Group and a secret admirer of Alex.

Additionally, she was a Perry family heiress, who had concealed her true identity to work closely with Alex.

She had watched silently as Alex repeatedly faced problems because of Sadie, fueling a fierce jealousy within her.

Today, when she saw Alex defend Sadie against his own mother, resulting in Susannah’s collapse, her jealousy flared

uncontrollably.

She could not bear seeing the man she loved suffer for a woman she believed to be shameless.

She refused to lose to someone she considered vastly inferior.

“What’s wrong, Aliza? You seem very upset,” a colleague, familiar with her feelings, inquired with concern.

“Nothing,” Aliza responded sharply, turning her back on the unfolding scene.

Her eyes narrowed, lips curling into a sneer.

“Sadie, you seem to thrive on attention. Well, I’ll ensure you receive more than you can handle. I’ll see to it that you’re thoroughly disgraced, and unable to show your face again,” Aliza vowed silently.

Sadie felt utterly forsaken, isolated in the midst of the crowd.

Her body shook, her legs nearly giving way beneath her.

She didn’t know how she managed to exit the Howe Group building.

The piercing comments followed her, offering no respite.
