Chapter 188:

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!”

“Finally!” Sadie exhaled deeply, a smile of relief spreading across her face. After days of searching, she had secured a three-bedroom apartment. It was ideally located near the city center and a reputable public kindergarten, and best of all, it was within her budget.

“Miss Hudson, please review the contract. If everything’s satisfactory, you can sign here,” the agent said, offering her the document with a beaming smile.

Sadie examined each clause meticulously. Satisfied, she signed her name on the dotted line.

“You’re very decisive!” the agent remarked as he collected the signed contract. “Just so you know, I’m only the agent. The landlord is someone else, but you can contact me directly.”

“Thank you,” Sadie responded, making a mental note of the information.

With Averi’s school documents in hand, she grasped his small hand and walked to the nearby public kindergarten.

Averi, dressed in a neat blue shirt, blinked curiously at his surroundings. He clutched Sadie’s hand tightly, his little face tinged with nervousness.

The kindergarten instructors were intrigued by the lively young boy who had recently returned from abroad, eager to uncover more about his unique experiences.

Averi, with his effortless command of a foreign language and his bright, sociable nature, quickly endeared himself to them. The interview process unfolded without a hitch, and Averi was officially enrolled.

Sadie observed the warmth in Averi’s radiant grin and felt a profound wave of comfort and satisfaction.

Leaving the kindergarten behind, Sadie clasped Averi’s hand as they wandered along the shaded, tree-lined walkways of their community.

Once they stepped inside their home, Averi lifted his small face, gazing up at Sadie with wide eyes. In a soft, melodious voice, he asked, “Mommy, are we staying here now?”

“Yes, this will be our home from now on,” Sadie reassured him, her fingers gently brushing through his hair, her voice both soothing and certain.

Averi’s face lit up with delight, his tiny teeth peeking through as he grinned.

Golden rays of morning light streamed through the translucent curtains.

Sadie stretched languidly before pushing herself upright in bed.

Relocating was far from simple. She had taken the day off specifically to manage the moving process.

Her first order of business was to contact Carol.

“Carol, I’m moving today. Could you drop by and lend a hand with the packing?”

“Of course, Sadie! I’ll be there right away,” Carol responded with enthusiasm.

Sadie rose, made her way to the window, and drew back the curtains.

Sunlight spilled into the room, wrapping it in warmth. She exhaled slowly.

A new residence—a blank slate brimming with opportunities.

Sadie headed to Laura’s room, tapping lightly on the door. “Grandma, are you up?”
