Chapter 382 Fiona understood instantly.
If the child was three years old, that meant Rosita had betrayed Stewart four years ago. She'd abandoned Irwin and run off to the arms of spowerful Westerfield tycoon.
Just thinking about it made Fiona's opinion of Rosita plummet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo when she picked up Rosita's call now, her tone was anything but warm.
"Aunt Fiona, may I see you for a moment?" "Ms. Lockwood, you're Mrs. Ferguson now. I don't think there's any need for us to stay in touch." "It's about Irwin." Rosita's voice was urgent. "I know I have no right to contact you anymore, but I'm still Irwin's mother. I just can't stand by and watch him be mistreated-" "Mistreated?" Fiona let out a sharp, cold laugh. "Do you even know what you're talking about? Irwin is the only heir to the Wentworth family. As if we'd ever let anything happen to him." "Then... you must not have heard yet..." Rosita's voice caught, trembling with emotion. "I always thought, with you and Stewart there, Irwin would be well taken care of. But I didn't expect-" "What are you getting at?" Fiona snapped, losing patience. "If you have something to say, say it. Don't just sit there sniveling!" "I heard from Irwin's teacher that Briony is forcing Stewart to send Irwin away." "Briony?" Fiona sounded confused. "Wasn't that woman dead years ago?" "No. We were all deceived." Rosita's words were choked with tears. "Four years ago, she faked her death and hid with her daughter in another city. But recently, she cback. Stewart's already brought her and her daughter into their new house. But Briony refuses to accept Irwin." "Briony isn't dead?" Fiona was dumbstruck. "Back then Stewart brought ha dead infant, said it was his and Briony's son... So Briony had twins?" "Yes." "What a curse!" Fiona spat, her anger boiling over. "Useless woman! She lost the boy and only kept the girl-what good is that?" A flash of coldness flickered in Rosita's eyes. "I don't know everything that happened, but from what I heard, her health was already fragile during the pregnancy. The doctors begged her to stay in the hospital, but she insisted on working. That's why tragedy struck. If she'd just listened to them, maybe the boy would still be alive..." "Foolish woman!" Fiona growled, her temper flaring. "She cost herself her own son, and now she's jealous of Irwin? Irwin is the Wentworth family's eldest grandson! Who does she think she is, trying to drive Irwin away? Not as long as I'm alive!" Beep. Beep.
Fiona hung up.
Rosita smiled with satisfaction.
With Fiona's temperament, there was no way she'd ever let Stewart send Irwin away.
Her Irwin would stay right where he belonged-in the Wentworth family, by Stewart's side.
