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

Chapter 79
Chapter 79:
Alex’s expression grew thoughtful as he processed her words. After a brief pause, he inquired, “What project are you
considering?”
“There’s a fashion brand that’s embracing classic styles,” Sadie answered, a spark of enthusiasm in her tone despite the
circumstances. “It perfectly matches my design skills. I’ve been trying to connect with them, but it’s been tough to break through.”
Alex raised an eyebrow, his voice tinged with curiosity. “Which one?”
“The Maple Group,” Sadie replied, her voice a gentle whisper, as if confiding a secret. “The CEO’s surname is Dominguez. Does
that ring a bell?”
A mischievous grin slowly spread across Alex’s face, his eyes lighting up. “You should’ve led with that. Our families have been
friends for generations. Consider it done.”
A flicker of excitement danced in Sadie’s eyes, igniting them with hope. “Really? Help me get that project, and I’ll owe you a
dinner at the finest restaurant in town!”

Alex’s laughter echoed in the room, warm and infectious, enhancing his already striking features.
“It’s a promise!” he declared. “Once you’re on your feet again, I’ll arrange a meeting with Mr. Dominguez myself.”
Sadie’s spirits lifted, a soft blush tinting her pale cheeks. “It’s a deal!”
Alex reached over to press the call button beside her bed, signaling the nurse to attend to the finished IV drip.
As he stood to leave, his voice softened, filled with a tender earnestness. “Rest up. I’ll be here tomorrow to keep you company
again.”
A wave of warmth washed over Sadie, her heart swelling with gratitude, yet burdened by the thought of the inconvenience she
was causing Alex.
“That’s sweet, but really, I’ll be fine on my own,” she murmured gently, turning down the offer.

The concern in Alex’s eyes deepened, reflecting sincere compassion as he gazed at her. “Sadie, don’t shut yourself away from
the kindness others offer. This world has its harshness, but there’s also a lot of kindness. Let yourself accept it; you deserve that
much.”
The words made Sadie’s eyes brim with unshed tears again.
With a quick, shaky breath, she lowered her gaze to mask her vulnerability and managed a subdued nod. Her voice, thick with

emotion, barely whispered, “Okay.”
After Alex’s departure, a heavy silence reclaimed the room.
Sadie pulled out her tablet, her fingers brushing over its surface before she immersed herself in crafting her presentation and
refining her documents.
Next time she met Roy, she wanted to be ready—impressive enough to win him over.
The weight of her decision to part ways with Noah pressed heavily on Sadie, reminding her that, from now on, she needed to be
her own anchor. Once a vibrant and promising designer, she had allowed her talents to dim in Noah’s shadow.
But that was about to change. Determined, she vowed to herself that she would reclaim the value she had once placed on her
own worth.
The following day, as the noon sun cast stark light through her window, Sadie’s eyes fluttered open. Groggy and disoriented, she
squinted against the bright light and noticed a shadowy figure looming nearby. Assuming it was Alex, she called out, “Alex, is that
you?”
But the response came in a harsh, irate tone that chilled the air. “Sadie, look carefully at who I am!”
Sadie’s eyes snapped into focus, her brow furrowing in distress as the figure before her became clearer.
Noah stood tall in his impeccably tailored suit, his presence commanding and his expression unyielding. Confidence and power
radiated from him, but the fire of displeasure flickered in his gaze.
