Chapter 468 Noah’s Last Vestiges Of Control…
The face that had haunted Sadie’s thoughts day and night suddenly materialized before her.
She froze in place, her gaze unfocused as she stared at Noah.
It was indeed him- Noah. Her Noah was back!
Tears welled up in Sadie’s eyes, as the longing she’d pent up overflowed.
In a sudden move, she lifted her head, her eyes rimmed with red, and kissed Noah. Her lips met his with a fervent warmth.
Noah shuddered under her touch.
His mind blanked out, every rational thought eclipsed by the intensity of the moment.
His soul seemed to tremble. This sensation was both familiar and strange, yet irresistibly captivating.
Desire overtook Noah’s reason, overwhelming his restraint.
He cradled Sadie’s head as he deepened their kiss.
Her response was a blend of raw passion and clumsiness, filled with deep longing and attachment.
She clung to him, seeking solace in his warmth and the comforting scent of him.
“Noah…” she whispered, her voice laden with emotion. “I need you…”
At that, Noah’s last vestiges of control vanished.
“Sadie.”
They embraced fiercely, their bodies entwining as they fell onto the soft bed.
The room’s temperature seemed to spike.
Meanwhile, outside, Samuel returned to the hallway after finishing his tasks.
Several bodyguards stood guard by the door.
As he approached, strange noises emanated from the room.
His heart raced.
The sounds grew louder, unmistakably the deep, low tones of a man intertwined with a woman’s soft moans.
The man’s voice… it sounded uncannily like Mr. Noel’s.
Shock painted Samuel’s face.

What could Mr. Noel and Ms. Hudson possibly be doing?
He glanced back at the bodyguards, his expression betraying his astonishment.
The bodyguards exchanged glances, their expressions uneasy as if they too had heard the sounds but were unsure how to
react.
Samuel paused, deciding it was best to withdraw.
The complexities of what was happening inside the room were beyond their scope to intervene.
Moreover, Samuel sensed something different about Mr. Noel today.
From the moment he learned of Ms. Hudson’s disappearance at the restaurant, his demeanor had been unusually tense and
agitated.
All his reactions since then felt strangely familiar to Samuel.
A troubling thought flashed through his mind.
Why did Mr. Noel’s voice so closely resemble Mr. Wall’s?
Samuel’s pulse quickened.
He pushed the thought aside.
With a composed gesture, he signaled the bodyguards.
“Let’s step back for now. No one approaches this area without my say–so.”
The bodyguards nodded in unison. “Yes, sir.”
Silently, Samuel led them away.
Meanwhile, Hailey had returned alone to the suburban villa.
The villa was ablaze with lights yet felt unsettlingly vacant.
She pulled out her phone.
Still no answer from Noah.
Hailey’s brow furrowed, a surge of worry washing over her.
What was happening? Why wasn’t he answering? Could he possibly be with Sadie?
The thought struck Hailey forcefully.
No, that couldn’t be right!
Noah loathed that woman.
Perhaps he was simply too busy to notice his phone.
That had to be the explanation.
Despite her attempts to reassure herself, a nagging unease persisted.
She set down her phone and began pacing the living room, lost in thought.

As morning arrived, sunlight crept through the blinds, gently illuminating Sadie’s face.
She blinked open her eyes to an unfamiliar ceiling above her.
Her body felt as though it had been disassembled and pieced back together.
Sadie frowned, slowly propping herself up into a sitting position.
The air still held a faint, lingering fragrance.
Memories of the previous night- familiar yet elusive sensations–gradually filled her mind.
Suddenly, Sadie froze.
She recalled being drugged, her consciousness becoming foggy, then everything turning fragmented.
