Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 385

Stewart found out about Fiona being sued the next afternoon.

Fiona was the first to call, her voice sharp and shrill. "That witch Briony! You need to divorce her, now! Can you believe she's suing me?"

"She's suing you?" Stewart frowned. "What did you do?"

"What could I possibly have done?" Fiona snapped. "I was just standing up for Irwin. It was just a slap! She's a jinx, she deserved it! She lost her own son and now she's scheming against Irwin, really thinks the Wentworth family is a pushover-"

"You hit her?" Stewart's tone turned icy. "Who gave you the right to lay a hand on her?"

"So what if I did? I regret not slapping her a few more times-"

Stewart cut her off, his voice cold and hard. "You'd better tell me everything, right now. Otherwise, don't expect me to help you with this lawsuit."

Fiona hesitated, suddenly aware of the anger in Stewart's voice. Her bravado faded.

"I—I was just so angry! Irwin is our family's eldest grandson! And she actually told you to send Irwin away!"

Stewart's frown deepened. "Who told you I was sending Irwin away?"

Fiona faltered, not daring to mention Rosita for fear of making Stewart even angrier. "I went to see Irwin yesterday. He seemed off, so I asked him, and that's what he told me."

"Are you sure?" Stewart narrowed his eyes.
