Regretting the Wife He Threw Away novel Chapter 726

Stewart glanced at him. “If you don't want to go through with this, you still have a chance. You….”

“Who said I don’t? You really think I can't live without her? She doesn't even want me or our son anymore, and she went behind my back….”

The back door of the car opened, and Stella slid inside, cutting Cedric Clarke’s rant short.

This time, no one spoke. The atmosphere was heavy with unspoken tension.

The black Bentley pulled away from the airport, heading toward City Hall.

Normally, the drive from the airport to City Hall took about twenty minutes. But today, half an hour had passed and they were still on the road.

Stella finally realized something was wrong. She looked toward the driver's seat. “Mr. Wentworth, could you please drive a little faster?”

Stewart glanced into the rearview mirror, his eyes meeting Briony’s. She pressed her lips together and sighed, knowing exactly what he was trying to do. But if stalling for time was going to work, the two of them would have reconciled during the long flight home.

“Stewart, just do as Star says,” Briony said.

At the sound of her voice, Stewart cleared his throat. “Alright, whatever you say.”

His voice was deep, and as soon as he finished speaking, the car accelerated.

Briony was speechless.

Cedric Clarke put a hand to his forehead. That bastard, always putting her first.

…

They arrived at City Hall at ten past two, just as it was reopening for the afternoon.
