Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 The Child Was

Gone

As Sadie observed Kyla’s smug grin, a shiver of dread crept across her heart.

So, Noah was already aware that she was pregnant.

He had known all along and had heartlessly allowed her to perish in that tragic car accident.

She had once harbored the naive hope that Noah’s heart was just unreachable, that perhaps his love was something she

“The child… is gone?” Kyla’s voice cracked, a mix of disbelief and sudden elation coloring her tone as she shifted her focus back to Sadie, searching her face for confirmation.

Sadie offered no reply, only allowing the silent tears to gather and fall, leaving moist traces on her nose.

She portrayed the image of utter devastation.

As Kyla observed Sadie’s breakdown, a flicker of doubt shadowed her triumph..

Sadie had always presented a facade of toughness in her presence. Since when had she become so visibly broken?

Yet Kyla quickly brushed aside the flicker of doubt.

Sadie a pathetic fool. What kind of schemes could she even come up with?
