Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 492

Chapter 492 Such A Scenario Would Be…

Noah didn’t reply, but instead leaned in even closer.

His silver mask hovered just inches from Sadie’s flushed cheek, his warm breath softly brushing past her ear.

A shiver shot through Sadie, her heartbeat stumbling as warmth bloomed fiercely across her cheeks.

Just as the tension grew unbearably thick, a voice broke through the silence.

“Sadie!”

Isabel stood frozen in the doorway, holding a bowl of steaming soup.

Her eyes widened at the unexpectedly intimate scene she’d stumbled upon.

Though Patrick wore a mask, his stance and the way he leaned into Sadie radiated an undeniable intimacy.

Quickly overcoming her initial shock, Isabel smiled with both understanding and embarrassment.

She surely understood what the scene meant.

Despite feeling a gentle pang at the thought of Noah, Isabel comforted herself. This Patrick seemed like a decent man, and Sadie deserved to move forward.

Clinging to the past wouldn’t do anyone any good.

“Oh dear! It seems I’ve arrived at an inconvenient moment!”

Isabel chuckled apologetically, already stepping back hurriedly. “Please, carry on–I didn’t mean to interrupt!”

Isabel swiftly retreated, closing the door quietly behind her with care.

Sadie was stunned, cheeks aflame.

She knew exactly what Isabel was thinking.

Without thinking, she quickly raised her hand and pressed it firmly against Noah’s chest, pushing him away- not roughly, but with unmistakable resistance.

Noah allowed himself to step back gracefully, quietly noting the mix of embarrassment and irritation flickering across her flushed face. Beneath the silver mask, a faint smile briefly curved his lips.

Sadie turned abruptly toward the window, avoiding his penetrating gaze as she tried to steady her pounding heart.

Noah discarded his earlier teasing tone, his voice settling back into cool neutrality.

“You don’t have to worry. New Rise Corporation will not partner with Wall Group,” he assured calmly yet firmly. “Even if Briley truly were pregnant, such a scenario would be impossible.”

Chapter 492 Such A Scenario Would Be Impossible

His confident declaration immediately drew Sadie’s curiosity. Turning back to face him, she regarded him inquisitively.

Why was he so certain?

Noah didn’t prolong the mystery, directly clarifying the truth.

“Yesterday, New Rise Corporation signed an official strategic partnership with the Peterson family abroad. Their next move is expansion into the international market. Right now, they would never bind themselves closely to a domestic entity like Wall Group.”

Understanding instantly dawned upon Sadie.

No wonder Alex had tossed Coyle out without hesitation.

Alex had likely anticipated Coyle’s tricks from the very start and must’ve been thoroughly disgusted with Briley’s attempts.

Coyle’s grand scheme–leveraging New Rise Corporation and forcing a marriage alliance–had always been nothing but a fool’s gamble.

He had truly dug his own grave.

Sadie silently absorbed the flood of information she’d received, taking a moment to process it all.

Seeing her deep in contemplation, Noah knew he’d accomplished what he’d set out to do.

Without another word, he quietly turned and made his way to the door.

“Where are you going?”

The words slipped from Sadie’s lips before she even realized it, leaving her momentarily startled at her own reaction.

Why did she care where he was headed?

Noah paused, glancing over his shoulder with an amused, teasing gleam in his eyes, clearly savoring the rare moment of vulnerability she had revealed.

“Naturally, I have to go back,” he answered softly, voice carrying a playful undertone. “Our plans are almost complete.”

He hesitated briefly, eyes locked meaningfully onto hers. “I’ll see you soon in Jazmah.”

Sadie immediately understood his implication, nodding calmly without pressing further.

Once the door softly clicked shut behind him, she pulled out her phone and dialed a number, her voice quiet but firm.

“Find a way to have the news of New Rise Corporation’s partnership with the Peterson family leaked–discreetly—to the Wall family elders.”

“Understood, Ms. Hudson.”

As Sadie ended the call, her eyes turned cold and determined.

Coyle’s last hope was shattered.

Now it was the shareholders‘ turn to make their choice.

In the chairman office of Wall Group, Coyle stood rigid, fingers trembling as they tightly clenched the papers in his hand.
