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

Chapter 814:

“It’s late. Averi has school tomorrow. You… you should leave.”

Noah sighed softly to himself. He was being dismissed.

“I’ll go, then. Have a good night.”

With that, he turned and left the study.

Meanwhile, Hailey returned to the suburban villa feeling utterly defeated.

Her meeting with Evan had not only been unfruitful, but it had also been extremely frustrating.

She walked into a brightly lit living room, but she didn’t see Noah anywhere.

Her chest tightened as she looked around for any sign of him.

Was Noah not home?

He should be back by this time.

A sense of foreboding crept over Hailey.

Right on cue, Nicolas, the butler, emerged from the servants’ quarters and approached her.

“Ms. Burgess,” he said, his tone and face cautious. “You’re back.”

Hailey looked him up and down with narrowed eyes.

“Where’s Patrick?”

Something flickered in Nicolas’s face, and he lowered his head.

“Mr. Noel…”

His voice faltered, as though he was afraid to say the rest of the words.

This immediately triggered Hailey’s temper. She hated when people acted like this in front of her.

“Speak!”

Nicolas jumped and shuddered.

Hailey was usually sweet and charming to others, but once she snapped, she was quite frightening.

Nicolas thought better than to hide anything and told Hailey all he knew.

“Mr. Noel left about two hours ago. I noticed that he didn’t look well, so I had the driver follow him. The driver just reported back that he went to Myrtlewood Estate.”

Myrtlewood Estate!

So, Noah had gone to see that wretched woman again!

Hailey’s hands clenched into fists. She was about to burst with rage.

Her lips curled into a bitter smile when she recalled how she had painted herself as a victim to Evan a while ago. She had told him that she was afraid Noah would abandon her if he regained his memory.
