Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 336

After four years away, Briony's studio was still running smoothly.

Back when she first left, they lost a handful of regular clients, but over the past couple of years, business had slowly picked up again.

Briony's return, with Little Nina in tow, sent a ripple of excitement through the staff.

Everyone crowded around to coo at Little Nina, immediately charmed by her sweetness and how much she resembled her mother.

Little Nina was a natural social butterfly; the unfamiliar faces didn't faze her in the slightest.

James scooped her up to introduce her to everyone, then led her off to meet the golden retriever.

Four years ago, he'd been just a fluffy puppy. Now, he'd grown into a full-sized, dignified dog.

His old little dog bed had long since been outgrown.

Hannah Lane had cleared out a storage room, turning it into his own private space.

Sensing something special, Lucky's tail wagged furiously the moment he saw Little Nina.

James kept a gentle hand on Nina's shoulder, not letting her pet the dog-she might be allergic to his fur.
