Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 755

Stewart wasn’t an expert, but even he could tell by now that she was doing it on purpose.

The man’s long, narrow eyes narrowed as he stared at her clean, makeup-free face. “Bryn, what are you afraid of?”

Briony’s movements paused. She pretended not to understand.

“What would I be afraid of?” She looked at him and retorted, “I’ve had my milk. Shouldn’t you be getting some rest too?”

“I’m waiting for you.”

“Don’t wait for me.” Briony’s lips curved slightly, ignoring his hint. “The injured patient should rest early.”

“I had to shower and wash my hair with a glove on last night. It was so awkward. I feel like I never got properly clean.”

Briony said, “…It’s just for a few days. You’ll have to make do.”

“Fine.” Briony stood up. “I’ll go change. You go upstairs first…”

“The guest room I’m in doesn’t have a bathtub.”

Briony paused, looking at him sideways.

Stewart met her gaze, his expression completely serious. “I’m just borrowing your bathtub. You don’t mind, do you?”

Briony pursed her lips.

They were a newly reconciled couple. Refusing to let him use her bathtub would seem a bit too dramatic.

Briony nodded. “Alright.”

Stewart went upstairs to get his clothes.

Briony went into the bathroom, gave the tub a quick rinse, and started filling it with water.
