Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 619

Chapter 619 Going To Marry Nathan

The next morning, Sadie’s lashes fluttered as she slowly blinked into wakefulness.

She was first greeted by the wide expanse of the stark white ceiling. Her body felt drained of strength, her

limbs leaden, and her mind cloudy.

This… Was she in a hospital? What happened to her last night?

Her memory was patchy at best. She remembered feeling terrible, then everything went black.

She gingerly turned her head to the side, and her gaze landed on the figure slouched on the edge of the bed, fast asleep. His profile was just as sharp as she remembered, his features chiseled and well–defined, though his

brows were furrowed slightly.

Noah?

Sadie stared at him in shock. What was he doing here?

Her thoughts were still a little muddled, so she couldn’t quite think clearly.

She shifted positions and tried to reach for the glass of water on the bedside table.

But her movements–small as they were–were enough to rouse the sleeping man.

Noah’s eyes were glassy with sleep as he lifted his head, but they instantly snapped into focus when he saw

that Sadie was up.

“You’re awake?” he rasped. “What are you trying to do? Do you need me to carry you to the bathroom?” He was already getting to his feet as he spoke.

Sadie blinked, caught off–guard by the worry in his voice. Wasn’t he being a little too dramatic?

Her gaze dropped instinctively to her still–flat stomach.

Noah was likely unaware of her pregnancy yet. Otherwise, given his current feelings toward her, he would have already forced her to get rid of the baby.

Then an idea crossed her mind. She decided to test whether he knew about her pregnancy or not.

She sank back into the pillows and did her best to look frail and weak.

“What… What happened to me?” she asked softly.

Noah braced his elbows on the bed and leaned in to peer at her face.

The faint scent of lavender and something unmistakably his lingered in the air between them. It wafted over to

Sadie and practically wrapped around her, as if to lay claim.

The scent brought a rush of feelings and memories from the past, causing her to briefly lose focus.

Thankfully, Noah didn’t seem to notice her reaction to his proximity. He reached out and pressed his large, warm palm against her forehead “You’re okay now. The fever broke.”

A soft breath of relief rushed past his lips, but then he frowned again. “You had a high fever. Don’t you remember anything? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere now? I’ll call the doctor.”

He was already turning toward the door.

“Wait!” Sadie grabbed his arm without thinking.

She hadn’t meant for him to actually call the doctor. What if they found something other than her fever?

Noah stopped in his tracks, clearly surprised by the sudden touch. Then he pivoted on his feet–so quickly that he lost balance at the last second and found himself tipping forward.

The next thing Sadie knew, a weight was about to press down on her. His broad chest, his toned abdomen…

She stayed still, eyes wide open.

Fortunately, Noah caught himself just in time before he crushed her with his body. His hands were braced on either side of Sadie, their faces so close to each other, their noses were nearly touching.

Sadie couldn’t look away. She could feel his warm breath fanning against her cheek.

Noah couldn’t stop staring, either–her luscious lips were parted slightly, her eyes wide with innocent surprise. His gaze darkened, and a teasing smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

“Sadie,” he said, low and mischievous. “There’s really no need for you to try so hard to hang on to me…: He had more to say, but never got the chance to.

Sadie’s eyes suddenly flashed with anger. Without any warning, she jerked her knee upward.

Noah hadn’t been ready for it. The pain hit him like a tidal wave. He gasped as he fell back and doubled over, his hands cupping his crotch as if he feared another attack was coming.

Sadie hadn’t held back at all!

He was still trying to compose himself when she sat upright and straightened her clothes. Then she shot him a cold, distant glare. “I would thank you to extend me some basic courtesy, Mr. Noel. In case you’ve forgotten, you are a married man. And for the record…”

She paused and lifted her chin, her tone turning even more chilly. “I’m about to marry Nathan, so I would greatly appreciate it if you kept your distance from now on.”

Noah’s breath caught at her words. He froze, still clutching his crotch, as he processed Sadie’s declaration. The pain on his face was soon replaced with disbelief.

Her? Marry Nathan?
