Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440 Burgess Group’s CEO

Samuel nodded in response.

“The marketing department has selected the Burgess family. They have been rapidly developing in the last couple of years, and are now one of the top families in Zupren. It emerged as an unexpected contender in the international scene, and sources say that they are in par with the Wall Group.”

Sadie was not surprised to hear this.

She had already heard of the Burgess family three years ago.

Back then, they were on the brink of collapse, struggling with overwhelming debts and the never–ending swarm of

creditors.

Yet in just three short years, the Burgess family managed to make a comeback and even rise to join the elite.

They must have employed unusual strategies in order to achieve such an accomplishment.

“Coyle and Sutton seem to be in frequent contact with the current chairman of the Burgess Group, Patrick Noel,” Samuel continued. “I heard that he is the husband of the Burgess family’s heiress. But this Mr. Noel is very mysterious. There is no

public information about him, not even a single photograph.”

Sadie’s brows furrowed slightly at that, and she tapped her finger on her knee.

After a moment’s consideration, she instructed, “Arrange a meeting with Mr. Noel for me. In our line of work, it’s always

better to have more friends than enemies.”

“Of course, Ms. Hudson. I’ll make the appointment right away.”

Just minutes later, the car pulled over in front of the company.

Instead of getting out, Samuel hesitated for a moment then said, “Ms. Hudson, the people we sent to Rosewood Hospital

have reported back. Still no news.”

Sadie seemed to fall into a daze for a brief moment, but she quickly regained her composure with a sharp intake of breath.

She said nothing to acknowledge Samuel’s words, simply opened the door and entered the company building.

Tina approached Sadie as soon as the latter came into view. “Ms. Hudson, the detective just delivered two sets of documents. They’re already in your office.”

Sadie nodded without breaking her stride. “Briley still hasn’t come to the company?”

Tina nodded as she jogged to keep up with her. “That’s right. Briley hasn’t come in today.”

Sadie finally slowed her pace. “Notify the HR department that Briley is fired. Tell them to make a company–wide announcement to inform everyone.”

Tina was visibly taken aback, but she wasn’t one to question her boss. “Yes, I’ll get right to it.”

Once inside her office, Sadie sat behind her desk and picked up the documents sent by the detective. She spent the next half hour reviewing them.

They contained information on the Burgess Group and its chairman, Patrick Noel.

Much to Sadie’s dismay, the information she received was very limited, with only a few notes about this Patrick guy.

Mysterious, low–key, and highly skilled.

That was how he was evaluated by the detective she had hired.

By the time Sadie finished reading everything, her brows were knitted into a tight frown.

Whoever that man was, he really was mysterious to an excessive extent. Even the country’s top detective couldn’t find any useful information about his background.

It looked like he would be more challenging to deal with than Sadie had initially anticipated.

Still, the more elusive he was, the more determined she was to meet him.

After finishing the day’s work, Sadie clocked off and drove to the Wall Manor.

No sooner had she walked through the foyer than a small figure barreled into her.

“Mommy!”

After three years, Averi had grown quite a bit. His baby fat had tapered to more refined features, and he looked more and

more like Noah with each passing day.

Sitting on the sofa, Isabel smiled and waved Sadie over. “Come here, Sadie. Averi missed you so much.”

Sadie picked up her son and carried him into the living room, a rare smile gracing her face.

“Did you behave, Averi? Did you follow everything Grandma said?”

Averi clung to his mother’s neck and nodded vigorously. “Yes! I always listen to Grandma’s words.”

Isabel’s expression grew tender as she watched mother and son.

Her attitude toward Sadie had changed drastically over the past three years. She used to dislike her daughter–in–law, but

now, she treated Sadie like her own, biological daughter.

After what happened to Noah, Isabel had pinned all her hopes on Sadie and Averi.

Dinner was prepared by Isabel herself. The family sat around the dining table, enjoying a cozy and harmonious meal.

They were still eating when a servant rushed in. “Mrs. Wall, Mr. Coyle Wall and Mr. Sutton Wall have arrived.”
