Between Ruin And Resolve My Ex-Husband's Regret novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 A

Conversation

To Isabel, Sadie was merely a gold digger who had married Noah for his wealth, and now, she suspected infidelity.

Kyla cast her eyes downward, her long lashes concealing the cunning thoughts brewing within. She nibbled on her lip,

appearing as though she was wrestling with whether to divulge more.

“Tell me! What’s really going on?”

“Mrs. Wall, I heard… Three years ago, Alex frequently visited Sadie and seemed to often take care of her…”

“Care? What kind of care? When a man and a woman are alone, what could they be doing?!” Isabel erupted, her anger

spilling over. “Noah must divorce her!”

Outside the mall.

“Sadie, are you alright?” Alex asked, his face etched with concern.

Sadie inhaled deeply, steadying herself, and mustered a weak smile. “I’m fine.”

They walked in silence until Sadie broke it. “How did you find me here?”

Alex paused, then chose honesty. “I saw the news about your studio’s designs being leaked online. I was concerned about you, so I came to see if you were alright. Your assistant mentioned you were at Hermes… What happened?”

Sadie chuckled dryly. “The usual schemes. But I won’t be brought down so easily.”

Isabel’s words echoed in her mind, causing a sharp pain in her heart.

“Get in the car. I’ll take you home,” Alex offered softly, pulling Sadie from her reverie.

Sadie nodded, slipped into the car, and closed the door behind her.

The ride home was quiet.

Breaking the silence, Sadie suddenly asked, “Alex, do you know where Mrs. Lawrence often goes?”

Alex blinked, surprised by the question. “Mrs. Lawrence? The wife of the Lawrence Group CEO?”

Sadie nodded in confirmation.

“I heard she’s quite fond of limited–edition handbags, and I happen to have one she’s been searching for. I thought I’d try

my luck and see if I can meet with her.”

“I do know a few of her favorite spots…” Alex shared a list of places, which Sadie noted carefully.

Over the next few days, Sadie embarked on a thorough quest, visiting each venue Alex mentioned, hoping for a chance

encounter.

Her determination paid off. At a high–end art gallery, she finally crossed paths with Leanna.

“Mrs. Lawrence, hello. I’m Sadie.” Sadie introduced herself with polite assertiveness.

Leanna gave her a brief look, her response brusque. “I know who you are, the one whose designs have been leaked. If this

is about work, you should speak with my husband.”

Her voice was frosty, signaling her lack of interest in further discussion.

Taking a deep breath to steady her nerves, Sadie produced the Hermes bag.

“I heard you appreciate this style, so I brought it for you.”

Leanna’s attention shifted to the bag, her expression revealing a hint of surprise, though she quickly masked it.

She checked her watch. “I’ll give you five minutes.”

Sadie’s excitement grew.

“Mrs. Lawrence, in addition to this bag, I have another gift for you,” Sadie continued with composure, retrieving a design

portfolio from her bag.

“I’m truly sorry about the leak. To rectify that and to demonstrate my sincerity, I’ve created new drafts and also crafted an

extra set…”

She paused, gauging Leanna’s reaction. Seeing no interruption, she continued, “I understand that your ten–year wedding anniversary with Mr. Lawrence is approaching, and I’ve taken the liberty of designing a special collection to mark the

occasion. I hope these can serve as a token of my apologies and goodwill from my studio.”

Leanna finally showed some interest. She picked up the portfolio and began flipping through its pages.

With each page turned, Sadie’s heart raced faster.

The portfolio was the culmination of her tireless efforts over the past few days.

When Leanna finished, she placed the portfolio back on the table, her expression unreadable.

“Nice designs.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Lawrence.” A spark of hope ignited in Sadie’s chest.

“These designs not only fulfill Mr. Lawrence’s specifications, but I’ve also introduced some innovative ideas… They were inspired by the love story between you and Mr. Lawrence, symbolizing a decade of companionship and commitment. I hope they resonate as more than just jewelry, but as a testament to your journey together.”
