Chapter 531 The Fact Remained That Hailey W…
Hailey was silent for a long time, leading Briley to think that she didn’t believe her.
Briley leaned forward and lowered her voice.
“You have to trust me, Hailey. That bitch, Sadie–she ruined my family! She caused my father to have a stroke, and now most of his body is paralyzed. Not only that, but she also caused my brother’s death! Why should she keep the position of chairwoman when her hands are so dirty?”
The more she talked, the more agitated she felt, and by the time she finished her speech, her eyes were wide and blazing with rage.
It was all Briley could do not to storm right into Sadie’s house and confront her. She wanted that bitch to pay for everything she had done!
Realizing she had almost snapped, Briley calmed herself and tried to sound more sincere. “I genuinely want to cooperate with you. I know that you want the title of Noah’s wife, and I want revenge. We can work together to bring Sadie down, and we will both get what we want.”
Hailey blinked and took a good look at the woman in front of her, whose face was twisted in an ugly and stupid expression.
She sneered inwardly.
This was perfect!
Since Briley had proposed the idea herself, then she couldn’t blame her for going along and using her.
She would use this fool to deal with Sadie, and if things went awry, Briley would be the one to take the fall.
All of Hailey’s misgivings vanished in an instant, and she plastered a sympathetic look on her face. She even managed to tear up. “Miss Wall, I truly sympathize with your situation. Honestly, Sadie has been a problem for me for a while now. Since you’re gracious enough to extend such an offer to me, I’ll gladly take it. We’re in this together from now on.”
Meanwhile, Sadie walked towards the entrance of the hospital.
Hailey’s words kept repeating in her head, like a haunting death toll.
Hailey was pregnant. Noah was worried. So just how much of the things he had told her was true? How much should she believe?
Sadie walked in a daze, barely noticing someone up ahead.
Her face collided with a solid chest, causing her to stagger a few steps back.
Her first instinct was to apologize. “Sorry, I-”
The rest of her words died in her throat as she looked up and met a piercing, yet concerned gaze.

<Chapter 531 The Fact Remained That Hailey Was Pregnant
It was Noah!
Sadie froze completely. Even her heart seemed to stutter.
What was he doing here?
Noah noted Sadie’s pallid color and felt his chest tighten.
He was about to ask why she was in the hospital and if she was feeling unwell, but she suddenly turned away, as if she couldn’t stand the mere sight of him.
She rushed past him and toward the hospital entrance without saying another word.
Noah immediately sensed that something was wrong.
He caught up to her in two, quick strides and a her wrist.
Sadie struggled as soon as he touched her. “Let go!”
Noah frowned and stepped closer. “Sadie, what’s wrong?”
Sadie felt like the entire universe was mocking her.
She scoffed and glared at him. “You’ve already made your choice, so why are you still bothering with me? Your beloved wife is eagerly waiting for you to join her in her hospital room.
Noah gritted his teeth, and his free hand clenched into a fist so tight, the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
He could practically see the walls Sadie had put up around her, but strangely enough, he was the one who felt suffocated.
