Regretting The Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 222

Irwin's eyes sparkled with excitement. "When the time comes, I'll be Mom Bryn's only child-she'll love and take care of me forever!"

...

Lauren parked the car at the base of the office building.

Once they got out, she took Irwin's hand and led him inside.

Irwin had visited here often before; he knew the place like the back of his hand. With practiced confidence, he guided Lauren straight to Briony's studio.

The moment they stepped in, Hannah greeted them at the door.

At the sight of Irwin, Hannah's brows knit together.

Briony had already warned her: if Irwin showed up again—no matter who brought him or what excuse was given-he was not to be let in.

Hannah didn't recognize Lauren, so she put on a polite but firm smile. "Excuse me, ma'am, may I ask who you are? Is there something I can help you with?"

Lauren answered with calm warmth. "I'm Irwin's grandmother. His parents are busy today, so I brought him along. We'll leave right after we discuss the cooperation I mentioned."

Cooperation?

Hannah gave Lauren a quick once-over.

Her elegant outfit and composed manner certainly gave off an air of wealth.

"I'm sorry, but our boss doesn't take walk-ins. You'll need an appointment. I'm afraid you'll have to come another day."

"I'm here on someone's recommendation-Mr. Lewis of Northborough. I'm sure you know the name?"

Mr. Lewis had powerful connections; everyone in the city whispered about it.
