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

Chapter 960:

They tightened their grip on her and practically dragged her to the gates.

Along the way, one of her heels got caught in the gravel and broke, causing her to stumble. She was even more of a mess than when she had arrived.

“Let go of me! Noah! Noah, come out! Come out here and face me!” she kept screaming. But the only response she got was a loud bang as the gates slammed shut in her face.

Hailey had been thrown unceremoniously out onto the gravel path.

Her knees and elbows stung, having been scraped raw during her fall.

Her face was ashen, and she felt cold all over.

How could this be happening? Noah didn’t even want to see her! Was he truly going to divorce her? What would happen to her afterward? What would become of the Burgess family?

Just then, her phone rang from her pocket. It was Briley.

That imbecile! Of all the times to call, Briley had to do it when she was at her lowest.noveldrama

But Hailey managed to gather herself, then picked up the call. “Hello? What’s going on, Briley?”

She acted clueless, even though she already knew Briley’s reason for calling.

Sure enough, Briley exploded on the other end of the line. “Hailey! That bitch Sadie has ruined me!” Her shrill voice was dripping with venom.

“Remember when I was ambushed by reporters outside the police station? I hired people to bury the scandal, but it’s been days, and it’s still going around online! So I had someone look into it, and guess what? It’s that bitch Sadie again! It’s her all along! That despicable woman! I swear, I won’t let her get away with this!”

Briley was so furious that she didn’t even bother to keep her mouth in check.

Meanwhile, Hailey’s lips curled into a cold, mocking smile.

Briley really was a fool, through and through. Manipulating her was just a walk in the park.

Little did Briley know that those so-called schemes perpetrated by Sadie were, in fact, masterminded by Hailey herself.

Her goal, of course, was to pit Briley and Sadie against each other until one of them was destroyed.

Hailey sneered, but she masked her disdain with short, pitiful sobs.

“Oh gosh, Briley. That’s… Are you okay?”

“My situation right now…” Hailey began before trailing off with a dramatic exhale. “Sadie, she… She’s already engaged to that spoiled heir from the Higgins family, but she still keeps clinging to Patrick. She has somehow poisoned him against me, and now he wants a divorce. He doesn’t even care about our baby.”

Hailey choked on a sob. “I would have been fine with it if it were just me, but my poor child… They aren’t even born yet, and their father is already abandoning them. I just know that once Patrick finalizes our divorce, he will run back to Sadie without a second thought. They would no doubt rekindle their relationship! They will be unstoppable. The entire fortune of the Wall family will fall into their hands. How are we going to survive then?”
