Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 659

Briony started to stand, but Kendal quickly said, "No need to get up, really. We're all family here no need for formalities."

Hearing that, Briony let her politeness drop.

Ferdinand's death.

Stewart walked over and handed some medicine to Briony. "Here, take this first."

She accepted the cup and drank it all in one go, lowering her gaze.

Stewart unwrapped a piece of hard candy and offered it to her.

Briony took the candy and placed it in her mouth.

Stewart took the empty cup from her hands.

Kendal watched from the side, a gentle smile in his eyes.

It looked like these two-once married-had finally made peace.

Since Kendal had taken the trouble to visit her as an elder, Briony felt she should at least invite him inside.

She stood and welcomed Kendal into the house.
