Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 515

Briony told Stella everything that had happened at The Wentworth Group, including what she’d seen—Stewart coughing up blood.

Stella fell silent for a long time after listening.

Then suddenly, as if something clicked, she exclaimed, “No wonder I thought Cedric Clarke’s been showing up in the ER way more often. Turns out he wasn’t there for work, he was treating Stewart in secret, wasn’t he?”

Briony pressed her lips together and said nothing.

“So just now, when Cedric said he was going to the hospital, was he going to see Stewart again?”

“Most likely.”

Stella lapsed into silence again.

Coughing up blood—things must be serious.

She might despise Stewart, but with someone that sick, she decided she’d better hold her tongue and not say anything harsh.

Stella fixed her gaze on Briony. “If Stewart really is this sick, what are you going to do?”

Briony met Stella’s eyes, her expression calm. “I’d feel sorry.”

“Briony! Say that again—”

“I mean, I’d feel sorry for the kids.”

Stella let out an exasperated sigh. “Can you just finish a sentence without all the suspense?”

“Star, I really have moved on. Everything between Stewart and me—it’s in the past.”

“Are you sure?” Stella narrowed her eyes.

“I’m sure.” Briony’s voice was steady. “We have kids together, so I can’t cut him out entirely, but any contact is just for them. That’s all.”

“My only worry is that he’ll get the wrong idea and think you’re giving him another chance,” Stella grumbled.
