Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67 I’ve Cried Over

You For The Last Time

Sadie didn’t care what Noah was up toshe just wanted him gone, the sooner, the better.

So, she played along and opened the box. Nestled inside lay a set of gleaming, pink car keys for a Mercedes, which caught the sunlight and twinkled mesmerizingly.

You’re giving me a car?she inquired, her voice steady and devoid of any real shock.

Noah gazed at her, his lips slightly parted in anticipation. Do you like it?

There was a subtle tremor of nervousness in his voice, almost imperceptible.

Before Sadie could muster a reply, the door to the hospital room burst open.

Kyla strode in with effortless grace, her white dress flowing as a serene smile adorned her face.

Sadie, Noah took me along to pick this for you. It’s pinkabsolutely your color.

Her voice carried a tinge of pride, bordering on arrogance.

At those words, Sadie’s grip on the box tightened momentarily, a flash of irritation crossing her features before she forced

herself to relax.

With a swift motion, she snapped the box shut and extended it back towards Noah. Take it back,she demanded calmly.

Noah’s expression morphed into one of confusion. You don’t like it?

His eyebrows knitted together, betraying his surprise at her refusal.

Before Sadie could formulate a response, Kyla inserted herself into the conversation with an overly sweet tone. Sadie, you really should accept this. It’s Noah’s gift to you, and if you don’t, he’ll always feel guilty.

Guilty?

Sadie’s mind raced to the reason why. It was because when, battered from her accident, she had called for help and Noah

had hung up on her.

What made it worse was his decision to bring Kyla here now, flaunting their bond as if to spite her.

As these thoughts swirled in her head, Sadie fixed Kyla with a sardonic smile and said with deliberate nonchalance, Do you like it? I certainly don’t care for it anymore, so you might as well have it.

Her words carried a hidden edge, hinting not just at the car, but at Noah as well.

Kyla’s face flushed with a mix of surprise and embarrassment. She was clearly stung by the implication that she was merely taking Sadie’s unwanted stuff.

She bit her lip in a visible sign of distress and tugged at Noah’s sleeve, her eyes pleading. Noah, did you hear what she said?

Noah, catching the undercurrents of Sadie’s disdain, bristled with indignation. Is it that you don’t like this

car I chose for you?

Does it make a difference?Sadie retorted, her voice dripping with icy detachment. You’ve delivered your gift, now you can leave. And don’t make me press the call button to have you escorted out like last time.

Noah gave a casual shrug and an indifferent arch of his eyebrow before settling into a chair beside Sadie’s hospital bed. With deliberate slowness, he picked up an apple and started to peel it, seemingly unaffected by the gravity of the moment.

Just so you know,he said, his tone effortlessly composed. I’m now a major shareholder of this hospital. If I run into a problem, a quick call to the director will take care of it.

Sadie couldn’t mask her incredulity. What the hell do you want?she demanded, fixing him with a piercing stare that

seemed to search his soul. You made it clear you wanted a divorce, which I agreed to, yet you refuse to sign the papers.
