Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 74

Gina grinned. “No worries, Ms. Kensington. Just go take care of your business—I’ve got everything under control here!”

Briony nodded, then glanced over at Julia.

Julia was sitting up in bed, watching her. She lifted a hand and waved her off. “Go on, now. And drive safe.”

“Alright.” Briony flashed a bright, reassuring smile before turning to leave.

Over the years, she’d heard plenty of rumors: after Malcolm passed away, the Kensington Group’s business had gone downhill year after year. Mack simply wasn’t cut out for the corporate world. Word was, every project the Kensington Group had invested in recently had crashed and burned.

At the mention of her name, the guard’s expression shifted instantly—now openly disdainful. “Oh, it’s you. Mrs. Kensington left instructions: you’ll need to park out here.”

Briony had expected nothing less.

She parked, stepped out of the car, and closed the door behind her.

The guard had already notified the family.
