Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret

Chapter 264

Chapter 264:

The group around them nodded their heads in agreement. While Susannah had only been half-listening, the mention of the “Cardilla Pink Diamond” made her brows furrow in concern. She recalled that Alex had approached her, requesting a necklace, claiming it was for a special friend. A chill of apprehension washed over her.

She gently set her champagne glass down and quietly excused herself from the gathering, exiting the banquet hall. Her mind was a whirlwind of confusion and concern. Without delay, she dialed her team, directing them to investigate the issues surrounding Sadie and the Cardilla Pink Diamond. The response arrived swiftly.

“Mrs. Howe, our investigation confirms that Sadie Hudson was indeed involved in a design project for the Lawrence Group. Prior to its completion, the Cardilla Pink Diamond disappeared, and she substituted it with a sapphire. We also found that during that period, Mr. Howe’s assistant made a visit to Sadie’s studio, apparently to deliver an item.”

Hearing this, Susannah felt a jolt of shock. Could it be possible that Alex’s ‘important friend’ was this very Sadie? And… Hudson?

She recognized the surname, but her recollection was vague, blurred by the years.
