Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 197

The delivery guy sat on the floor for quite a while before he finally managed to get back on his feet.

He was clearly bruised from the fall, but thankfully, he’d bundled up in enough layers that he seemed mostly okay.

Briony quickly called the building management.

The hallway had security cameras.

A property manager soon arrived with a cleaner in tow. Once the sudsy mess on the floor was scrubbed away, the manager led Briony, Gina, and the unfortunate delivery guy to the security office.

Inside the surveillance room, a staff member spoke up.

“Found it.” He paused the footage and turned the monitor toward them.

The video showed that just before seven that morning, the little boy from the apartment across the hall had been playing with bubble solution in the corridor.

The kid looked to be about five or six years old.

He raced up and down the hallway, sloshing soapy water everywhere. The most infuriating part? There were a few moments where he quite deliberately poured bubbles right in front of Briony’s door.

“Don’t the parents ever watch him?” Gina fumed. “This is unacceptable. They need to come out and apologize!”

“Don’t worry,” the manager assured her. “We’ll get in touch with them right away.”

He immediately called the apartment’s owners.

Unfortunately, the man of the house was away on a business trip and had no idea what was going on. He hung up without much concern.

Clearly, they weren’t taking this seriously.

The delivery guy, anxious to get back to work, waved it off. “Forget it. Just my luck, I guess.”

He started limping away.

Briony, seeing how shaken he still looked, called after him. “Wait a second.”

He paused, glancing back at her with confusion.

Briony walked over and pulled out her phone. “Show me your payment code.”
