Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 615

Briony shot Mary a cool glance-she never bothered to put on a friendly face around her, especially in front of others. "What? Are you disappointed?"

Mary, used to Briony's sharp tongue by now, just brushed it off and edged closer anyway, undeterred.

"I'm happy for you, Briony. You see, Ferdinand treats you well. Maybe you shouldn't upset him so much anymore. Nortia is a place where polygamy is the norm-shouldn't we try to get along as sisters?"

Briony let out a dry laugh and walked over to the seat furthest from Mary, sitting down without another word.

Seeing this, Mary lowered her head, looking thoroughly dejected, eyes brimming with silent complaint.

Belinda brought over a bowl of nourishing soup for Briony.

Ferdinand said, "Most of the toxins in your system have been cleared out. You should focus on eating something restorative for now."

Briony gave a cold, bitter smile. "And what's the point in that? No matter how well I recover, if you're in a bad mood one day, you could just decide to poison me again. Tell me, Ferdinand—are you satisfied with your little lab rat?"

Ferdinand's expression darkened as her words hit home.

Mary hurried to smooth things over. "Briony, please don't say that. Ferdinand really does care about you."

Briony scoffed and lowered her head, sipping her soup in silence.

Mary looked to Ferdinand, her voice pleading. "Don't be angry with her. Briony didn't mean it..."
