Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret
Chapter 671:
âAlex, donât be sad,â Briley murmured, her voice full of tenderness.
She enveloped his hand in hers, her grip comforting.
His gaze, clouded and uncertain in the low light, struggled to identify her.
In his drunken state, he mistook her for Sadie.
Was it really her?
âSadie?â Alex murmured.
Suddenly, he gripped Brileyâs hand with surprising force.
A thrill of joy surged through Briley.
He had fallen for it! It didnât matter that he had mistaken her for another woman.
She chose not to correct him. Instead, she leaned in, her body nearly touching his.
âItâs me, Alex.â
Engulfed in the fog of alcohol, Alex struggled to recognize the person before him.
All he knew was that he saw Sadieâthe woman who haunted his every thought, the one he deeply missed.
For mðrÑ, vð¾ðð¾t gðªlð·ovÑls.ð¬âð¶
âSadie, donât leave me.â
Alexâs voice, filled with a childlike fear of abandonment, made him cling to Briley.
Briley initially tensed at his embrace but quickly composed herself.
A subtle, triumphant smile played across her lips.
She soothed Alex by gently patting his back.
âI wonât, Alex. I wonât leave you.â
Alexâs embrace tightened, his grip strong.
He buried his face in the crook of Brileyâs neck, breathing deeply, taking in her scent.
Over and over, he whispered, âDonât leave me, Sadie, donât leave me.â
Briley let him hold her, her smile growing more seductive, laced with excitement.
For many women, being embraced by a man like Alex was a dream.
Now, she had effortlessly made it a reality.
Alex stayed in Brileyâs arms for a long time.
Eventually, the alcohol took full control.
He drifted into a deep sleep, his breaths heavy and irregular.
Briley felt his body relax completely in her embrace, and she carefully helped him sit up.
His weight was a challenge to manage.
She managed to take Alex to a nearby hotel, and with effort, placed him onto a soft bed.
He remained unresponsive.
Briley took in the lavish suite, noting every luxurious detail.
Feeling satisfied, she retrieved her phone from her bag and captured several suggestive photos of Alex and herself on the bed.
She chose her angles carefully and used the dim lighting to enhance the allure of the images.
After securing the photos, she stowed her phone away, a playful smirk playing across her lips.
These images would give her leverage.
âAlex, you wonât escape me,â she murmured.
Briley turned to leave the room.
As she reached the door, a sudden movement from behind made her pause.
Alex had awoken.
