Chapter 122

Chapter 122:

Kyla fixed her with a stern look. “I’ve made myself clear. Stay away from Noah,” she said, her voice sharp. “If you don’t, I’ll sabotage your plan.”

A chill ran through Sadie as she realized Kyla meant what she said. She clenched her jaw tightly. “I’m going to leave the country, and get as far away as possible.”

A triumphant smile played on Kyla’s lips. “That’s excellent.”

Once Kyla left, Sadie inhaled deeply, struggling to calm the storm of feelings within her, and picked up the phone to call Alex.

“Alex, could you book a plane ticket for me? I need to depart after the Maple Group CEO’s wedding anniversary event tomorrow night,” she said with forced calmness, though her voice quivered slightly.

“The anniversary event? When does it start, and where is it happening?” Alex asked.

“It’s set for eight in the evening at the Pearl Hotel,” Sadie responded quickly, thinking about her escape plan.

“Understood. I’ll take care of it. Stay safe,” Alex replied, concern evident in his voice.

“I will,” Sadie answered, hanging up the phone with a sense of reassurance. She now had a way out.
