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!"
