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

Chapter 1053:

But exposing him now meant little to Alex. Right now, his only focus was Sadie. He wasn’t going to let anyone hurt her again.

Alex set down his coffee cup, the bottom touching the table with a soft clink. His voice carried a quiet chill, distant and steady. “Mr. Noel, if I’m not mistaken, you’re a married man. So why do you keep showing up, bothering Sadie over and over? It’s unfair—not just to her, but to your wife as well.”

Noah’s lips curled faintly under the mask. A soft, mocking laugh slipped out. He remembered hearing rumors about Alex, the head of Howe Group, being closely tied to Briley from the Wall family. Some even said they were once close to marriage. Yet here Alex was, sitting in front of him, casting judgment.

“Mr. Howe, you make it sound like I’ve committed a crime,” Noah replied, his tone cool. “I’m simply looking out for Sadie. We’ve known each other for a long time.
