Chapter 62 You Don’t
Deserve Her
Alex hesitated, his words catching in his throat. “Well…”
He trailed off, the weight of his thoughts manifesting in a heavy sigh. Slowly, he reached out, drawing Sadie into a tender embrace, his hand patting her back with a steady, comforting rhythm.
“Sadie, there’s no need to pretend you’re not hurting.” he murmured gently.
The warmth from his embrace seemed to dissolve the barriers Sadie had built around her emotions, and tears cascaded
down her cheeks, each drop heavier than the last.
In that vulnerable moment, the door to the hospital room slammed open with a jarring bang.
“Sadie! How are you?” The urgency in Noah’s voice was palpable, his words laced with a tremor that betrayed his concern.
Caught in the midst of her tears, Sadie froze, her sobs suspended.
Noah’s tone shifted suddenly, the warmth seeping out to leave a chill. “What the hell are you doing?” he demanded, his eyes narrowing into a frosty glare as they swept across Alex’s comforting hold on Sadie, fixating on Alex’s arms encircling

her from me? Go ahead and try–I’ll rip you apart!”
In Noah, jealousy and rage roiled, untamed and ferocious, threatening to consume him whole,
Alex, taken aback, barely had time to brace himself before the punch landed. His head whipped to the side, a thin line of blood tracing down from the corner of his mouth.
Calmly, he wiped it away, his gaze steady and unflinching, a silent promise of retaliation glinting in his eyes.
Sadie, her heart pounding with shock at the sudden violence, stepped in hurriedly. Her voice, though firm, trembled slightly as she said, “Noah, stop it right now!”
