Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 465

Chapter 465 Look Who You Delivered

Noah froze mid–gesture, his fingers clamped around the coffee mug.

What was that supposed to mean?

His eyes lifted, sharp and searching.

Under the weight of Noah’s unwavering gaze, Samuel felt a ripple of discomfort but forced himself to recount the situation

briskly and clearly.

Noah’s brow knitted tightly as uneasiness surged within him.

He carefully placed the mug down and sprang upright, knocking his chair aside in his urgency.

The crash of the chair hitting the floor shattered the restaurant’s stillness, prompting nearby patrons to glance over

curiously.

But Noah paid them no mind.

His expression hardened, his tone cold and commanding as he instructed his bodyguards, “Find her now! Shut down the

mall and review the security cameras!”

The guards instantly sprang into action, the restaurant’s air thickening with tension.

Noah remained motionless, his demeanor shifting between emotions.

Why did he feel so unsettled? Sadie was just a business partner. Her vanishing had no bearing on him.

Yet the moment he learned of her disappearance, dread gripped him, as though something precious was slipping away.

The feeling rattled him.

Noah couldn’t process it–nor did he want to.

Without delay, he exited the restaurant alongside Samuel, leaving behind the vacant table.

When Hailey returned, she paused, puzzled.

Where was Noah? Why had he left so abruptly?

She slid into her seat, prompting a waitress to approach, voice polite. “Ma’am, can I help you?”

Hailey steadied herself and asked with calm curiosity, “The gentleman who was here earlier–where is he?”

“The gentleman? Are you referring to Mr. Noel?” the waitress replied with mild confusion. “Mr. Noel seemed to have an urgent issue and departed suddenly.”

An urgent issue? What could have driven Noah to leave without notice?

Hailey’s confusion deepened. She needed answers.

Without wasting another moment, she stood and hurried out of the establishment.

Elsewhere, inside an apartment building. Sadie’s captors ushered Sutton into an apartment.

“Mr. Wall,” the thug leader said with an oily smile. “We delivered her just as you asked. Everything’s been handled, and the

drugs are working. You’re in for a great fun.”

Sutton’s lips curled into a satisfied grin.

“Nicely done. Here–your payment.”

He flung a thick stack of bills toward the thug leader, indifferent.

The thug leader’s eyes sparkled at the sight of the cash, his grin stretching wider.

“It’s a pleasure to work for you, Mr. Wall. We’re always happy to assist.”

With a wave of his hand, Sutton dismissed the thugs. “Get lost.”

“Yes, of course. Enjoy yourself,” the thug leader said, bowing before retreating with the others, quietly closing the door

behind them.

Sutton adjusted his collar, a dark smirk playing on his lips.

“Hailey… let’s see how long you can keep up that pure facade,” he mused.

Anticipation buzzing in his veins, he stepped into the dimly lit room.

Shadows stretched along the walls, and a slender figure lay still on the mattress.

Sutton rubbed his palms together, eagerness radiating from him.

With feverish impatience, he stripped off his clothes, his laughter low and salacious.

“Come on, sweetheart, drop the act. I know you’ve been waiting for this. Don’t think I’ve forgotten how wild you once were.

Today, I’ll make sure you have the time of your life.”

He lunged toward the bed, but just as he did, the person stirred.

Sadie felt feverish, her mind clouded and her senses blurred.

She shifted, tugging at her collar in a bid to cool down.

That slight movement made Sutton freeze in place.

His muscles tightened as he finally saw the woman’s face in the faint glow.

It wasn’t Hailey. It was Sadie!

Shock slammed into him, snuffing out any previous desire.

He recoiled, stumbling away from the bed, terror flooding his veins.

How was this possible? How did Sadie end up here? He had clearly instructed the thugs to bring Hailey!

Sutton’s mind reeled in frantic confusion.

As he glanced down at his disheveled clothes, disgust rolled through him.

He had almost laid hands on Sadie–mistaking her for Hailey.

The thought alone made him sick.
