Chapter 148

The kiss was forceful, marked by a fierce possessiveness that seemed to overpower Sadie.

“Mm… let… let go…” Sadie desperately twisted her head away. Noah’s breathing grew heavier. He scooped her up and tossed her into the car.

The car door slammed shut with a bang, muffling the sounds of the outside world.

He leaned in closer, his presence pressing against her as he gently pulled her shirt open, exposing her delicate shoulders.

Sadie’s eyes widened in fear as she noticed the intense emotion in his gaze. She knew it all too well.

A loud slap echoed inside the car.

Noah paused suddenly, his expression shifting to one of surprise. He looked at Sadie, a mix of emotions flickering in his eyes, quickly replaced by anger.

“Noah, get a grip!” Sadie’s voice trembled with fear and anger. “We’re already divorced!”

“Divorced?” Noah said, his face close to hers. “The divorce papers aren’t signed. You’re still my wife, Sadie!”

Sadie closed her eyes in despair, tears streaming down her face. Noah kissed her again, this time more gently, but the humiliation for her deepened.

Feeling her tremble and the tears on her cheeks, Noah finally paused. He gazed at her, a tumult of emotions swirling in his eyes.

“Where have you been these three years?” His voice was low and hoarse.

“Where I’ve been is none of your business,” Sadie responded coldly, regaining some composure.

“None of my business?” Noah said, his smile turning into a mocking sneer. “Are you refusing to be intimate with me because of Alex? Did you ask him to take you away?” His tone was accusatory.

Sadie pushed him away with all her strength, her eyes flashing with anger.

“Noah, stop this madness! You have no right to control me anymore! From the moment you decided to get a divorce, everything between us was over,” she declared firmly.

Noah opened his mouth to argue, but Sadie cut him off.noveldrama

“Enough!” She took a deep breath to steady herself. “Noah, it’s over between us. Please don’t disturb my life anymore.”

With that, she pushed open the car door and walked away without looking back.

Noah sat in the car, watching her depart, his expression unreadable. After adjusting her slightly disheveled clothes, Sadie walked back to her grandma’s apartment slowly.

As soon as she entered, a small figure rushed over, hugging her leg tightly.

“Mommy, where did you go? I missed you!” Averi’s soft, childish voice carried a hint of sadness as he looked up with big, hopeful eyes. Sadie’s heart melted. She bent down, lifting him into her arms and kissing his chubby cheek.

“I just had to run some errands. Were you a good boy?”

“I was!” Averi nodded enthusiastically, his arms tightening around Sadie’s neck.

Sadie smiled.

“Sadie, you’re back? Why so late?” Laura appeared from the kitchen with a steaming bowl of soup. “Come have some soup to warm up.”

“Thank you, Grandma.” Sadie set Averi on the sofa and took the bowl, sipping the soup thoughtfully.

Laura watched her with concern. “Has Alex been busy recently?”

Sadie paused. “Yes.”

Laura sighed. “Alex is a good man. He’s been very kind to both you and Averi…”

“I know,” Sadie said. “But right now, I need to focus on my career, so I might not have much time to look after you and Averi.”
