?Chapter 812:


    Noah stared after her in stunned silence until she disappeared around the corner.


    He turned to Averi and crouched down.


    “Be a good boy and do your puzzles on your own for a bit, okay? Daddy and Mommy have something to talk about. I’ll join you soon.”


    Averi pouted again, obviously reluctant to say yes, but he ultimately nodded his agreement.


    Noah shot up to his feet and hurried after Sadie.


    He needed to find out what was going on, once and for all. The sense of familiarity and the deep unease that constantly haunted him… And then there was that child. Everything just felt off.


    Sadie heard the study door open behind her, just a couple of seconds after she had closed it.


    She whipped around to find Noah standing there, and she didn’t bother masking her impatience.


    What was he up to now? All she wanted was peace, and to be away from him.


    But Noah didn’t give her a chance to send him away. He stepped forward and grabbed her by the wrist.


    “What exactly happened three years ago?” he asked, his voice deep and urgent.


    Sadie struggled against the force of his grip. She hissed through gritted teeth, eyes shing.


    “Let go!”


    She tried to shake off his hand with all her might, but she was no match for his strength.


    In the end, Sadie threw back her head and let out a bitterugh.


    “What even is the point of asking me this now?” she asked, her voice dripping with disdain. “You already have a new wife, with a baby on the way. Hailey is pregnant, isn’t she? Why even bother with me still?”


    When Noah heard this, his grip tightened, and his brows drew into a frown.

    Hailey was pregnant? What the hell was going on?


    No, that waspletely impossible.


    Sadie caught the shock that crossed his face.


    It only made her despise him more; he was still putting on an act after everything?


    “Mr. Noel—or should I say, Noah Wall.” She practically spat out his name, a name she hadn’t said in a long time. “Your wife is pregnant, and here you are, acting like you don’t know. What kind of husband does that make you? Or perhaps you’re just a really good actor.”


    Either way, she had no interest in getting tangled up with him anymore.


    A muscle ticked in Noah’s jaw. It was clear that Sadie didn’t trust him. She wouldn’t believe a word he said, even if it was the truth.
