Regretting The Wife He Threw Away

"Don't talk nonsense. If you want a divorce, there's no way Stewart would refuse -he doesn't even love you..."

"That's right, he doesn't love me. But he thinks I'm just perfect to play nanny and stepmom to Irwin, doesn't he?"

Briony's voice turned icy. "Even after Irwin's own mother, Rosita, was the reason my son died, Stewart didn't bat an eye. He still expects me to go back and care for Irwin, as if nothing happened! Fiona, you could have had another grandchild, but Rosita took that away from you!"

"That's impossible!"

Fiona shot back, furious. "Rosita told me herself—it was your own fault! You ignored the doctor's advice and insisted on working. That's why my grandson was born early and didn't survive!"

"Oh?" Briony arched an eyebrow. "Rosita told you that herself?"

"She did!" Fiona's voice rose to a shout. "If she didn't call me, I never would have known just how malicious you are! You lost your own son, and now you want to get rid of Irwin too!"

"Listen to me, Briony. As long as I'm alive, you'll never lay a finger on Irwin!"

"Then why don't you go home and tell your son to hurry up and divorce me? Because I can't stand being Mrs. Wentworth for even another second."

"You'd better remember what you just said!" Fiona glared at Briony, practically grinding her teeth.
