Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 124

The car door swung open, and Briony stepped out with Irwin at her side.

Across the driveway, the driver’s side of a black Mercedes popped open, and Carl hurried over to meet them.

“Ms. Kensington, I’m so sorry for all the trouble,” he apologized, sounding genuinely contrite.

Carl, of course, had no idea that Stewart and Briony were secretly married.

But Briony didn’t care about Carl’s attitude; after handing Irwin over to him, she turned on her heel and headed inside.

James slipped out of the car and jogged a few steps to catch up with her.

Meanwhile, Carl took Irwin by the hand and led him toward the Mercedes. As he glanced back over his shoulder, Irwin caught a glimpse of James and Briony side by side, disappearing into the elevator together.

Irwin frowned, a shadow of resentment flickering in his wide, expressive eyes.

The black Mercedes rolled to a stop in the driveway. Carl got out, circled around to the back, and unbuckled Irwin, lifting him gently out of the car.

Hearing the engine, Rosita hurried out to greet them.

Irwin, still in Carl’s arms, spotted Rosita and gave a dismissive little huff, turning away to bury his face in Carl’s shoulder. He made it clear he didn’t want anything to do with her.

Rosita paused, a little taken aback, but quickly moved closer and ruffled Irwin’s hair. “Are you upset, sweetheart?”

Irwin didn’t answer.

Rosita shot Carl an awkward look. “Carl, could you please help me bring Irwin inside?”

“Of course.”

Carl carried Irwin into the house.

Irwin, still sulking, grumbled that he just wanted to go upstairs and sleep.

Carl glanced at Rosita for guidance.

She forced a smile, resigned. “He’s just having a tantrum. Would you mind taking him up to his room?”

Carl nodded and did as he was told.

After settling Irwin onto his small bed, Carl quietly excused himself.

Rosita closed the door behind him, then sat on the edge of the bed.

Irwin pulled the covers over his head, curling up into a tight little ball.
