Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret
Chapter 332:
If Sadie had never come back, Noah wouldnât be like thisâso cold, so distant. He was supposed to be hers. He should shield her and protect her. Not Sadie. Never Sadie.
âI wonât give up. I will never give up!â she snarled, her voice thick with determination.
Meanwhile, Sadie approached the hospital entrance, carrying a thermal lunch box.
Laura had been in the hospital for some time now, and today Sadie had gone out of her way to bring her favorite pot roast and fish soupâsomething warm, something comforting.
But as she stepped closer to the hospital entrance, her steps faltered. A familiar black luxury car was parked there. Noah. Her pulse quickened unexpectedly.
What was he doing here?
Shaking off the unease, Sadie walked through the hallways until she reached Lauraâs ward.
Just as she was about to step inside, a familiar low voice drifted through the door. âYou donât need to worry. Iâll make sure you get the best doctors. Whatever it takes.â
Sadie froze. Pushing the door open, she took in the sight before her. Noah was seated beside Lauraâs bed, his gaze soft, his voice full of quiet reassurance.
âAh, there you are!â Lauraâs face brightened with a warm smile the moment she saw Sadie step in.
Noah turned as well, his gaze landing on her.
For a fleeting second, their eyes metâcharged with something unspoken, something electric.
MⱺÉÉ ÉÏÈ¡Ä Å£ÉÅ Ä©Å É¢Ä ÅÅøνÉÅÅ.çøɱ
Sadie hesitated at the doorway, caught off guard by the sudden wave of emotions stirring inside her. But she quickly steadied herself, forcing down whatever it was threatening to surface.
She stepped forward, setting the thermal lunch box on the bedside table.
âHow are you feeling, Grandma?â she asked gently.
Laura gave her hand a reassuring pat. âMuch better,â she said, her voice filled with warmth. âI only just realized how lucky I am. Noah helped arrange my transfer to this ward. The doctors and nurses here are incredible. Theyâve been taking such good care of me.â
Sadieâs fingers curled slightly, her gaze drifting toward Noah before she could stop herself.
He stood off to the side, silent but present. When he heard what Laura said, a barely perceptible smile touched his lipsâso fleeting, it almost wasnât there.
âYes⦠Mr. Wall has been very considerate.â Her voice held a touch of stiffness, betraying the emotions she was still trying to suppress.
Noahâs eyes met hers again, filled with something she couldnât quite decipher. âIt was the least I could do,â he replied, his tone calm, devoid of any sentiment. Silence settled over the room. The faint scent of disinfectant mixed with the comforting aroma of the food Sadie had broughtâa strange, almost surreal contrast.
After a beat, Noah turned to Laura. âGet some rest. Iâll be going now.â
Laura nodded. âTake care on the road.â
With a brief nod, Noah turned and strode out of the room.
âSadie, why donât you walk Noah out?â Lauraâs voice was light but firm.
