Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 363

So when he saw Briony return with Little Nina, he wasn't really surprised—though he couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment.

Because Briony only had eyes for Little Nina. She never spared him a glance.

He'd always thought Briony's coldness meant she had her own child now and didn't need him anymore.

But what did Dad mean by what he just said?

Irwin spoke up, "But doesn't Mom Bryn have Little Nina now?"

Stewart looked right at him. "She was pregnant with twins. There were complications, and one of the babies died. Irwin, you should have had a little brother. She was the reason he didn't make it."

Irwin's eyes widened in shock. He turned to look at Rosita.

Rosita shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. "No, Irwin, it's not true—it wasn't like that! Please believe me, sweetheart. I would never hurt Briony. Your brother's death was an accident…"

Irwin frowned, staring at Rosita.

He suddenly didn't know who to believe.

"Irwin, I told you—you have nothing to do with Rosita anymore," Stewart said, voice steely.

Stewart had never wanted Irwin to know any of this. He'd wanted to shield him from the burden.

But tonight, Rosita's actions had pushed him over the edge.

"She ran off four years ago, without a word, because she was afraid I'd come after her!"

"That's not true! Stewart, please—please don't say anymore. Irwin is my son! If you hate me, just let me have him. I'll raise him myself…"

"You're not worthy." Stewart's eyes were cold as he stared down at Rosita, sobbing on the floor. "Someone like you doesn't deserve to be a mother."

With that, Stewart grabbed Irwin's hand and pulled him toward the door.

Irwin stumbled along behind his father, trying to keep up.

He could still hear Rosita's desperate cries echoing behind him. "Irwin! Irwin—!"

The sound twisted something inside him.

When they reached the car, Irwin didn't dare ask any more questions. He sat in silence, tears rolling down his face.

Stewart said nothing to comfort him. He simply floored the gas pedal, and the sleek Maybach roared away into the night.

…

Sunset Ridge Villas.

Jeannie heard the car pull up and hurried out to greet them.
