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

Chapter 1020:

The door opened quietly as Breck entered, anxiety still etched in the lines around his eyes.

“Mr. Noel, perhaps you should consider returning home for proper rest? I can maintain vigilance over Ms. Hudson’s condition,” Breck suggested gently.

The unspoken subtext hung heavily between them. Noah’s marital status made an overnight vigil at another woman’s sickbed potentially inappropriate—and scandalous.

Noah kept his gaze downward, his fingers instinctively tightening their protective grip around Sadie’s limp hand.

“That won’t be necessary,” he replied calmly, his tone brooking no contradiction. “You’re dismissed for the evening.” He flicked a meaningful glance.

Noah turned toward Jack, who hovered uncertainly at the threshold, the same moral turmoil evident in his expression. “The same applies to you.”noveldrama

Breck and Jack shared a moment of silent understanding, mutual resignation reflected in their exchanged glances.

When Noah made a decision, attempting to change his course proved invariably futile.

Acknowledging defeat, they offered respectful nods before quietly retreating from the hospital suite.

The door whispered shut behind them, creating a sanctuary free from external judgments and prying eyes.

Noah redirected his full attention to Sadie’s vulnerable form, his fingers entwining with hers in a protective gesture that spoke volumes his words never could.

The next morning, Sadie’s lashes fluttered as she slowly blinked into wakefulness.

She was first greeted by the wide expanse of the stark white ceiling. Her body felt drained of strength, her limbs heavy, and her mind cloudy.

This… Was she in a hospital? What happened to her last night? Her memory was patchy at best. She remembered feeling terrible, then everything went black.

She gingerly turned her head to the side, and her gaze landed on the figure slouched on the edge of the bed, fast asleep. His profile was just as sharp as she remembered, his features chiseled and well-defined, though his brows were furrowed slightly.

Noah?

Sadie stared at him in shock. What was he doing here?

Her thoughts were still a little muddled, so she couldn’t quite think clearly.

She shifted positions and tried to reach for the glass of water on the bedside table. But her movements—small as they were—were enough to rouse the sleeping man.

Noah’s eyes were glassy with sleep as he lifted his head, but they instantly snapped into focus when he saw that Sadie was awake.

“You’re awake?” he rasped. “What are you trying to do? Do you need me to carry you to the bathroom?” He was already getting to his feet as he spoke.
