Regretting The Wife He Threw Away

Cedric Clarke looked at Stewart with a weary sigh, helplessness etched across his face.

He couldn't help but think-when a woman makes up her mind, she can be downright terrifying.

To fake something as serious as a hysterectomy... This was full-blown medical fraud.

For a moment, Cedric felt utterly lost.

Had he made the right choice today?

If this ever blew up, knowing Stewart's personality, he'd be the first to go after Stella.

And then, Stella would be staring down a medical malpractice lawsuit.

But it was too late to turn back now. All he could do was take things one step at a time.

Director Grant stood by, his face grave as he fixed Stella with a stern look. "Star, this is reckless. Do you realize how serious the consequences will be if anyone finds out?"

"I'm sorry, Professor Grant-I know I shouldn't have done it, but..." Stella's eyes reddened as she glanced at Briony, still unconscious on the surgical table. "Bryn's been through enough. I can't stand the thought of her being trapped by Stewart just because of these twins."
