Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383 Noah Must Pay

“Shut your mouth!” Terrance raised a trembling hand, intending to slap Alex.

“Mr. Howe, what are you doing?” the family butler called out, his sudden presence breaking the tension.

The hapless man stood in the doorway, looking horrified as he processed the scene before him.

“Get out!” Terrance roared.

The butler flinched and fled quickly.

“Come on, Dad, be rational!” Alex pleaded when they were alone again. “You may think your plan is for the good of the

Howe family, but you’re wrong. It will only lead us to ruin.”

“What do you know?” Terrance barked at him. “You know nothing!”

“Nothing?” Alex sneered. “I do know that you’ve been making mistake after mistake. I don’t want to see our family fall by

your own hands!”

“You…” Terrance sputtered, too furious to get the rest of his words out.

“Dad, please, just stop!” Alex softened his tone slightly. “It’s not too late to turn back.”

“Impossible!” Terrance declared. “I won’t back down, no matter what! Noah must pay!”

“Seriously?” Alex asked, utterly bewildered. “But why? Why do you have such a deep–seated hatred for Noah? Is there

something I don’t know?”

“You don’t need to know,” Terrance snapped. “Just remember that I am your father. It may not look like it now, but

everything I do is for your own good.”

“For my own good?” Alex echoed with a bitter laugh. “Do you think I’d buy that nonsense?”

“Believe whatever you want, then!”

“You’ve really changed, Dad.” Alex’s voice had turned quiet. He paused and gave his father a look of utter disappointment.

“Somehow, you’ve become someone I no longer recognize, someone I fear.”

“I haven’t changed!” Terrance boomed. “I am still your father! I will always be your father.”

“No, you’re not.” Alex helplessly shook his head. “You’re not the father I once knew.”

Terrance gnashed his teeth together, his hands clenched into fists.

“I’m not giving up, Dad.” Alex met his angry gaze with one of determination. “I will stop you, and I will reveal your true

nature!”

“I dare you!” Terrance yelled.

“You think I wouldn’t?” Alex countered arrogantly. “For Sadie, for the Howe family, I’m willing to do anything!”

“You…” Once again, Terrance was so overcome with rage, he could barely speak.

In the end, he called for his men. “Guards!”

A group of tall, burly men rushed into the room.

“Take Alex back to his room and keep a close eye on him!” Terrance ordered. “No one is allowed near him without my

permission.”

“Yes, Mr. Howe!” the men responded in unison, then stepped forward to restrain Alex.

“Let go of me! I said, let me go!” Alex tried to struggle, but he was outnumbered.

The bodyguards practically hauled him away.

Terrance watched them go, his expression dark and menacing.

“It’s you who have disappointed me, Alex,” he muttered to himself. “Since you refused to listen to me, you can’t blame me for using drastic measures.”

He turned to his desk, grabbed the phone, and dialed a number.

“It’s me.” Terrance’s voice was cold and ruthless. “Move the plan up… Yes, as soon as possible. I don’t want to see that woman again… What? Noah? Don’t worry about him. He has his own problems to deal with… Good. That’s all.”

When he hung up the phone, Terrance was sporting a sinister smile. “Just you wait, Noah. I will make you regret ever crossing me!”

Meanwhile, Alex had been safely locked inside his room.

He suddenly remembered something.

He strode across the room to his desk, opened a drawer, and fished out an old phone.

It was his, from when he was much younger. It had gone unused for a long time.

Holding on to a glimmer of hope, he pressed the power button. The screen immediately lit up, and the battery icon was

full.
