Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 690

"Bryn, please—don't cry, I..."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Briony looked at him, her voice trembling. "Stewart, this

is my life. I don't need you to save me like this."

A sharp pain twisted in Stewart's chest.

"Bryn, the only thing that matters is that you're alive."

He reached out, wanting to wipe away her tears, but Briony stepped back and

stood up, just out of reach.

She brushed the tears from her face, her voice icy. "You traded ten years of

marriage to save my life, Stewart. Do you really think that makes you some kind of

hero?"

Stewart's breath caught. "I didn't think about any of that. In that moment, all I

wanted was for you to survive. Bryn, everything else pales in comparison to you

being alive..."

Briony stared at him, eyes shining with tears.

Suddenly, she let out a brittle laugh and nodded. "You're right. Compared to being

alive, nothing else matters."

"Bryn, don't overthink this. You have to live. Our kids need their mother."

Stewart swallowed hard. "Don't pay any attention to what Xenia Cooper says. The
