Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 501

Briony's Saturday was nothing if not productive.

She started her day stopping by to check on the renovations at her new house, then headed over to her studio.

Since she'd come back to Northborough, old clients had begun to turn up again— most of them seeking her out personally.

Restoring artifacts was Briony's true passion; even though she now ran Starlight Entertainment single-handedly, she still prioritized the studio above all else.

The building now belonged to her outright. With the studio's business expanding, Briony was already planning ahead: once the lease upstairs expired after the New Year, she'd reclaim that floor and convert it into a gallery.

But not a traditional one. She wanted to combine it with a training center, focusing on outreach-offering art education to people with special needs.

It was a dream she'd carried for years.

Little Mario had almost been diagnosed with autism, and the experience left a deep impression on her. Her son had been lucky, but she knew many children didn't have the same good fortune.

She understood her own abilities were limited, but with the opportunities and resources at her disposal, she felt compelled to do what she could-however much or little that might be.

Motherhood had only deepened Briony's belief that good deeds matter, and that by helping others, she was in some small way blessing her own two children.

Just last week, the excavation team had unearthed several new artifacts-all porcelain-which Carney promptly delivered to the studio for her and James Delaney to restore.
