Chapter 148 Looking For An Apartment
After finishing her work, Sadie collected her belongings and exited the office.
She made her way to the entrance of the Wall Group building, ready to hail a cab.
Having recently returned to the country, she hadn’t yet purchased a car. Since she finished work early today, she decided to seize the chance to explore some potential homes.
The evening breeze carried a crisp hint of early autumn.
Sadie tightened her coat and looked into the distance.
At that moment, a man approached her.
It was Samuel.
“Miss Hudson, Mr. Wall wants your presence.”
Sadie glanced at the nearby parked Maybach.
“That’s not necessary,” she responded with a cool detachment. “I have other matters to attend to.”
Samuel appeared troubled. “But Mr. Wall specifically instructed-”
“Mr. Ford.” Sadie cut him off. “My personal time is my own after work hours. It’s not subject to Mr. Wall’s approval.”
With that, she turned and walked to the curb, flagged down a cab, and left in a swirl of dust.
Samuel stood watching the cab vanish, then sighed helplessly.
He pulled out his phone and called Noah.
“Mr. Wall, Miss Hudson declined.”
In the back seat of the Maybach, Noah’s expression turned icy.
“Find out where Sadie went.”
Samuel nodded. “Yes, Mr. Wall.”
After ending the call, he stared out at the traffic, his lips pressed tightly together in frustration.
Later, at a real estate agency, Sadie pointed to a photo of a property, her brow furrowed.
“This one doesn’t have good lighting, and it’s too far from Averi’s school,” she noted.
The agent quickly offered another option. “How about this one? It’s well–ventilated, newly renovated, and located in a fantastic community. Plus, it’s very close to an elementary school and several kindergartens.”

Sadie’s eyes lingered on the photo of the two–bedroom apartment, noting its simple and elegant decor. It was indeed quite appealing.
But she still shook her head. “It’s slightly over my budget.”
The agent tried to persuade her further, but Sadie had already stood up. “I’ll think about it.”
She left the agency as the night deepened.
House–hunting was indeed exhausting!
Noah sat in his expansive office chair, his long fingers tapping a rhythmic pattern on the desk.
Samuel knocked and entered. “Mr. Wall, we’ve located her. Miss Hudson visited several real estate agencies today. It appears she’s looking for an apartment.”
Noah stopped tapping. “Which apartments did she consider?”
Samuel handed him the compiled information. “All the details are right here, Mr. Wall.”
Noah skimmed the documents.
All these apartments were far from Myrtlewood Estate.
“Arrange for someone to handle this,” he instructed.
Samuel, momentarily surprised, quickly nodded in understanding. “Understood!”
