Chapter 574

Sadie was immediately fond of it.

The entire time, Noah stood silently to the side, observing Sadie’s expression and noting every slight twitch of her lips or widening of her eyes.

Needless to say, he caught her interest on that particular dress, and made a mental note of it.

“What do you two think? Would you like to try one on?” the saleswoman finally asked, noticing that neither Sadie nor Noah had said anything.

Her words snapped Sadie back to the present.

“We, uh…” She glanced at Noah, then at Averi, her brows furrowed slightly.

She and Noah were already separated, so trying on a wedding dress seemed inappropriate.

“Mommy, please try one on,” Averi pleaded, tugging at her sleeve. “I want to see you in a wedding dress.”

Sadie still hesitated.

“Mommy, please! Pretty please!” Averi used his ultimate weapon—pursing his lips and giving his mother puppy-dog eyes.

Sadie couldn’t resist, of course.

“All right,” she said with a sigh. “I’ll try this one on.”

“Perfect!” The saleswoman happily clapped her hands. “Please come this way.”

She led Sadie to the fitting room, while Noah and Averi waited on the sofa outside.

Averi could barely sit still. He kept glancing toward the fitting room, then at Noah, looking anxious.

“Mr. Wall, what do you think Mommy will look like in a wedding dress?” he asked in his cute little voice.

“She will look stunning,” Noah answered without missing a beat, though his hands paused briefly from flipping through a magazine. His tone was tender, yet certain.

He still remembered their wedding from five years ago. The whole thing was rushed; they didn’t even have a ceremony.

“Yeah!” Averi bobbed his head vigorously. “I think Mommy will look beautiful, too!”

Soon enough, the door of the fitting room opened.

Sadie slowly stepped out in the simple, pearl dress.

All at once, time stood still.

Both Noah and Averi were stunned by the sight before them.

Sadie’s slender figure perfectly showcased the dress.

Her face had a faint blush, a mix of shyness and joy in her eyes.

“You look great, Mommy!” Averi cried out as he bounded over to Sadie and hugged her waist.

Noah stood up, swallowing the lump in his throat as he approached Sadie.

“You look gorgeous,” he complimented, his soft voice trembling ever so slightly.

Sadie felt a bit uneasy under his gaze. She lowered her head, unable to meet his eyes.

“I knew it! You really are a perfect match! A couple made in heaven!” the saleswoman said again.

Her words only made Sadie’s face turn even redder.

Noah was her ex-husband. How could they be considered a couple made in heaven? Or just a couple, even?
