Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55 What Makes

You Think He’ll Give A…

Kyla turned around and stormed off, her footsteps echoing hastily down the corridor.

Sadie stood there, watching her retreat, her brows knitting together as a profound unease settled heavily in her chest.

There was something about Kyla’s panicked gaze and her fumbled, half–hearted excuse that felt like sharp thorns digging into Sadie’s thoughts.

Determined, Sadie sought out Jim to arrange her discharge, eager to dash to Laura’s apartment and find that letter.

However, Jim firmly objected. “You’re pregnant, and you were really shaken up yesterday. It’s crucial that you rest to maintain your pregnancy’s stability. Wandering about is the last thing you should be doing now.”

But Sadie was resolute. “There’s something pressing that I need to attend to immediately. As for the baby, I have a strong feeling–they’re just fine.”

Despite his reservations, Jim could not sway her; eventually, he gave in.

On her way out of Jim’s office, Sadie unexpectedly encountered Kyla again.

Their paths crossing so frequently seemed almost orchestrated.

Had she not known of Kyla’s heart condition and her urgent need for medical attention, Sadie might have suspected Kyla

of snooping on her conversations.

With her patience wearing thin, Sadie brushed past Kyla, barely acknowledging her presence.

“Sadie!” Kyla’s voice, laced with urgency and a tremor of panic, halted her.

Sadie stopped dead in her tracks yet didn’t turn to face Kyla.

“Y–you’re pregnant?” Kyla stammered, her voice a mix of disbelief and fear.

At that moment, a cold dread washed over Sadie, her heart plunging into an abyss of worry.

Under Kyla’s icy glare, a shiver skittered down Sadie’s spine, her posture rigid with unease.

“What does that have to do with you?” she demanded, her voice edged with defensiveness.

Sadie instinctively wrapped her arms around her stomach, a protective gesture that didn’t go unnoticed.

“Then why haven’t you told Noah you’re pregnant?” Kyla snapped, her fingers clamping around Sadie’s wrist with a force

that bordered on painful, her nails threatening to break skin.

“Let me guess–you’re going to have the baby behind his back and then shove them in his face to blackmail him?” she went on, pure contempt lacing her words.

Chapter 55 What Makes You Think He’ll Give A Damn About That Baby

The sharp pinch forced a grimace onto Sadie’s face as she wrenched her arm free, her scorn palpable. “Do you think I’m as

desperate as you? Clinging to Noah by any deceitful means necessary?” Sadie retorted, her disdain for Kyla’s touch evident

in her shudder of revulsion.

Kyla, momentarily unbalanced by the force, steadied herself and sneered. “Pathetic. You actually believe having his child

will keep Noah by your side? If he couldn’t care less about you now, what makes you think he’ll give a damn about that

baby?”

She paused, her voice dropping colder with each word. “If you’re hoping this baby will boost your standing, you’re living in a fantasy. A man of Noah’s caliber could father countless heirs if he chose.”

With a mocking laugh, Sadie shot back, “Then I sincerely wish you luck in bearing Noah’s child soon!”

With a final, dismissive glance at Kyla, Sadie turned around and strode away.

All she wanted now was to get that letter and put an end to this nightmare once and for all.

Kyla watched, her chest burning with pure rage as Sadie’s silhouette faded into the distance.

The sting of Sadie’s parting words lingered, as sharp and sudden as a slap across her face.

Noah hadn’t even laid a damn finger on her–not even once!

What would happen if Noah found out that Sadie was carrying his child?
