Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret
Chapter 667:
Noahâs patience waned, and he withdrew his arm sharply, his voice chilling. âMs. Hudson, you gave up the partnership with the Burgess Group yourself. What is this about now?â With that, he turned and walked away.
Rachael, who had been watching the exchange, gently patted Sadieâs shoulder and sighed. âI met Patrick while hosting an exhibition abroad.â Knowing the story between Sadie and Noah, she assumed Sadie was distraught because she had mistaken someone else for Noah.
âPeople often say they look alike,â Rachael tried to comfort her. âBut Patrick is not Noah. I heard heâs married. Sadie, try not to dwell on the past too much. I need to return to my duties.â With that, Rachael left.
Standing there, Sadie felt a whirl of confusion engulf her.
She tried to remember Patrickâs voice, his manner, how he carried himselfâall strikingly similar to her memories of Noah.
If he wasnât Noah, then who was he?
She couldnât understand.
She was determined to uncover whether Patrick was indeed Noah. The next thing she knew, Sadie was in the car, her mind a torrent of thoughts.

Tina, noticing her pale face and trembling lips, spoke cautiously. âSadie, try not to let this get to you.â
Sadie simply shook her head, signaling that she was alright, though her mind was far from calm.
âKeep looking,â Sadie said softly, her voice quivering slightly. âIf we find nothing here, weâll hire a detective in Zupren.â
âAlright, Iâll handle it immediately.â
Tina nodded and promptly made a phone call.
Sadie rested her head against the car window, her eyes hollow as she watched the city blur by.
Over the past three years, Noah had appeared in her dreams countless times.
In those dreams, he smiled gently and reached out to her.
But each time she awoke, she was met with the stark chill of reality. Could it be that she missed Noah so much that she was seeing things and thought Patrick resembled him?
Closing her eyes, Sadie tried to steady her nerves.
Yet, her heart pounded relentlessly, refusing to be calmed.
Meanwhile, back at his suburban villa, Noah removed his mask.
His features were still handsome, albeit marked by weariness.
Hailey greeted him as he entered.
âNoah, youâre back,â she said softly. âWerenât you at the jewelry exhibition? Why did you come back so soon? Oh, and Iâve been meaning to askâwhat are your thoughts on Coyle and his son?â She posed the question tentatively, her eyes keenly observing his reaction.
Noah scowled, annoyed by the memory of the woman who had clung to him at the exhibition.
âCoyle and his son are going nowhere,â he replied indifferently, his gaze distant. âSadie has even managed to dominate them for three years.â
Hailey nodded, her expression thoughtful.
âSo, should we still choose to work with Sadie?â she asked.
At the mention of Sadie, Noahâs expression darkened further.
Her conduct at the exhibition had taken him by surprise.
She didnât match the rumors.
