NovelEnglishChapter 738: Noah didn't respond, but instead leaned in even closer. His silver mask hovered just inches from Sadie's flushed cheek, his warm breath softly brushing past her ear. A shiver shot through Sadie, her heartbeat faltering as warmth bloomed fiercely across her cheeks.
Just as the tension becalmost unbearable, a voice suddenly cut through the silence.

Quickly overcoming her initial shock, Isabel smiled, a mixture of understanding and embarrassment crossing her face. She certainly understood what the scene meant. Despite the brief pang of discomfort at the thought of Noah, Isabel comforted herself. This Patrick seemed like a decent man, and Sadie deserved to move on. Clinging to the past wouldn't do anyone any good.
"Oh dear! It seems I've arrived at an inconvenient moment!" Isabel chuckled apologetically, already taking a step back. "Please, carry on-I didn't mean to interrupt!" She swiftly retreated, quietly closing the door behind her with care.
Sadie stood there, stunned, her cheeks burning. She knew exactly what Isabel was thinking. Without thinking, she quickly raised her hand and pressed it firmly against Noah's chest, pushing him away—not roughly, but with unmistakable resistance.
Noah allowed himself to step back gracefully, quietly noting the mix of embarrassment and irritation flickering across her flushed face. Beneath the silver mask, a faint smile briefly curved his lips.
Sadie turned abruptly toward the window, avoiding his penetrating gaze as she tried to steady her pounding heart.

New Rise Corporation will not partner with Wall Group," he assured calmly yet firmly. "Even if Briley truly were pregnant, such a scenawould be impossible." His confident declaration immediately piqued Sadie's curiosity. Turning back to face him, she regarded him inquisitively. Why was he so certain? First appeared in golnov els.☐☐ Noah didn't prolong the mystery, directly clarifying the truth. "Yesterday, New Rise Corporation signed an official strategic partnership with the Peterson family abroad. Their next move is expansion into the international market. Right now, they would never bind themselves closely to a domestic entity like Wall Group."
Understanding instantly dawned on Sadie. No wonder Alex had tossed Coyle out without hesitation. Alex had likely anticipated Coyle's tricks from the very start and must've been thoroughly disgusted with Briley's attempts. Coyle's grand scheme-leveraging New Rise Corporation and forcing a marriage alliance-had always been nothing but a fool's gamble. He had truly dug his own grave.
Sadie silently absorbed the flood of information she'd received taking a же moment to process it all.
