Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 523

When Briony pulled into the drive at Skybreeze Retreat, her phone buzzed with another unfamiliar number.

She killed the engine, stayed in her seat, and answered the call.

"Bryn, you finally picked up." Ferdinand sounded anxious. "Please don't get the wrong idea-I'm not trying to bother you. There's just something I need to discuss."

Briony kept her tone neutral. "What is it?"

"Would you mind talking in person?"

"Sorry, I'm a bit busy these days." Her voice was distant. "If you have something to say, Ferdinand, just say it."

He fell silent for a moment, letting out a resigned sigh. "Bryn, my father wants you to sell me the shares Stewart left to Little Nina. He's hoping you'll cash them out."

"And if I don't want to sell?"

"Bryn, please. Just sell them." His voice grew heavy. "My father doesn't want Stewart to have anything from the Wentworth family-not him, not his child."

Briony's eyes turned cold.
