Chapter 393
“A disturbance?” Sadie gestured toward the front desk. “I made a reservation in advance, and now I’m being told I can’t stay here. Isn’t that the real disturbance?”
As the standoff continued, the hotel’s revolving door turned slowly and a figure emerged.
The man was dressed in a custom-tailored dark gray suit, his appearance marked by deep-set eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly pursed lips, exuding a sense of detached elegance.
It was Noah.
The hotel manager, noticing him, quickly approached with a deferential smile. “Mr. Wall, I apologize for this unfortunate scene. I’ll take care of it immediately.”
As he spoke, he cast a stern glance at Sadie and addressed the staff behind him.
“What are you doing, just standing there? Escort this lady out!”
Two staff members immediately stepped forward, each grabbing one of Sadie’s arms, and began to drag her out.
“What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me!” Sadie struggled with all she had, but she was no match for two burly men.
Noah’s brows furrowed, his gaze narrowed in confusion as he looked at Sadie.
“What are you doing here?”
Sadie froze at the sound of his voice. She even forgot to struggle. She hadn’t expected to run into Noah.
Before she could answer his question, the manager interjected. He addressed Noah with the utmost respect as he pointed at Sadie.
“Apologies, Mr. Wall. This young lady is causing a scene. She insists on staying at our hotel, but you have booked the entire place for the night. I have explained to her countless times that we are not accepting guests, but she wouldn’t take no for an answer. Her outburst is damaging the hotel’s reputation.”
Noah glanced back and forth between Sadie and the manager, his gaze deep and inscrutable.

“Do you know this lady, Mr. Wall?” the manager asked carefully, trying to read the situation.
Noah fixed him with a cold glance and said in a calm but authoritative voice, “She is my wife.”
“You—Your wife?” the manager gasped, his voice rising sharply. His earlier arrogance was now replaced with shock and fear.
He had never considered that the woman he had branded as a troublemaker would turn out to be Noah Wall’s wife!
His knees buckled under him, and he collapsed on the floor. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead and back.
He had made a grave mistake—perhaps the worst mistake of all.
“M-Mrs. Wall! I am terribly sorry, Mrs. Wall. I—I had no idea…” the manager stammered in a trembling voice.noveldrama
Sadie gave him a look that was far from forgiving.
“Release Mrs. Wall right this instant!” the manager barked at the staff holding her. “You fools, are you blind? You didn’t even recognize Mrs. Wall!”
The two staff members quickly let Sadie go, their heads lowered with fear. They didn’t even have it in them to defend themselves.
The manager wiped the sweat from his forehead and bowed in front of Sadie.
“Please accept my sincerest apologies, Mrs. Wall. I was blind and failed to recognize your status. I implore you to be the bigger person and forgive me, just this once.”
Sadie continued to look at him without saying anything.
A few seconds passed, and the manager became more anxious. He turned to direct his pleas to Noah.
