Regretting The Wife He Threw Away
Chapter 227
The heavy rain had delayed all departures, and Briony's flight was no exception.
She'd booked a first-class ticket, so she waited out the storm in the airport's VIP lounge.
To pass the time, Briony picked up a magazine from a nearby table and began flipping through it absently.

Briony said nothing.
He glanced at the empty seat beside her and, without the slightest hesitation, sat down.
"Are you going for the Antiquarian Society's documentary shoot?" he asked.
