NovelUSAChapter 456 Chapter 456: Susannah's eyes lingered on Averi briefly before shifting back to Sadie.
"Miss Hudson, I'm here to discuss you and Alex," she said bluntly.
Sadie's heart skipped a beat, and she had a strong sense of what Susannah's intentions were.
"Mrs. Howe, I think you're mistaken. There's nothing between Mr. Howe and me..." Sadie tried to clarify, but Susannah cut her off.
"You don't need to explain, Miss Hudson. I'm not here to cause trouble." Susannah's voice remained calm, but it carried undeniable authority.

She paused before adding, "Of course, I'm not unreasonable. If you're willing to part with this child, I might still consider allowing you to marry Alex." The impact of Susannah's words hit Sadie like a shockwave.
Sadie blinked, barely processing what had just been said.
"Mrs. Howe, what did you just say?" she asked, sure she had misunderstood.
"I said, if you're prepared to let go of this child, I might allow you to marry Alex," Susannah repeated, her voice even firmer.
Sadie felt a surge of frustration. She clenched her fists, trying to contain her emotions.
"Mrs. Howe, I believe you're confused. Mr. Howe and I are only friends. As for Averi, he is my world, and there's no way I would ever give him up." Susannah's expression grew more serious; she hadn't expected Sadie to be so resolute.
"Miss Hudson, you should reconsider. As a single mother with a child, what future awaits you? Becoming part of our family would assure you wealth and security. Why turn that down?" she asked, trying to tempt Sadie with the promise of material wealth.
Sadie scoffed, finding Susannah's arguments ridiculous.

Susannah stood, watching them walk away, her face darkening with rage.
"Fine! You turn down a good opportunity, and you'll have to face the consequences,” she muttered through clenched teeth, turning back to her car.
"If you're going to be this stubborn, don't blme for what happens next!" Susannah spat, her jaw tightening.

"Well, well, what a spectacle," she muttered with a mocking tone. “Who would have guessed? Sadie certainly knows how to play her cards. Not only has she ensnared Noah, but now Alex is completely smitten. And now, Alex's own mother has stepped in? What a turn of events!" Jealousy and resentment laced Vivi's words. To her, Sadie had always been a nuisance—someone she wished would just disappear. But now, watching her rival thrive while she struggled was unbearable.
Turning to the driver, Vivi motioned toward a nearby apartment building. "Pull over right there," she instructed coolly.
