Betrayed By Husband And Child (Romina) novel Chapter 128

As soon as he said this, shock flashed in Nasir’s eyes: “There was something in Romina’s juice too? If that’s the case, she was planning for me and Ms. Sandoval to…”

He gestured with his hand, but didn’t finish the sentence.

Joaquin nodded without hesitation: “That’s probably it.”

“That damn woman, just to get at Ms. Sandoval, she dragged me down with her? I really can’t swallow this!”

“Looks like you’re planning to deal with her?”

“If Ms. Sandoval knows the truth, I bet she’ll want to deal with her too, just like me, right?”

Joaquin replied nonchalantly: “She already knows the truth, but she doesn’t plan to take revenge on Na- dine.”

Anger instantly surged on Nasir’s face: “She can tolerate this?”

“Maybe she thinks it’s not the right time to strike back, so she’s choosing to swallow her anger for now.” Joaquin curled his lips, responding lightly, “But if you’re planning to deal with her, you might as well add Romina’s grudge to the list.”

“Heh.” Nasir let out a low, hoarse laugh. “This trick of yours, using someone else’s hand to do the dirty work, is really ruthless.”

“Is there any difference between you making a move and me making a move?”

Joaquin rested his hand on the edge of the chair, his fingertip touching his jaw, a hint of coldness at the corner of his lips.

“Are you planning to help Ms. Sandoval get revenge?”

“I was planning to, but she doesn’t want me to.”

Nasir squinted at him, his gaze meaningful: “Joaquin, I heard you’ve been getting close to Ms. Sandoval lately. You even gave her a car. What’s going on between you two?”

Joaquin lifted his shimmering eyes and quietly stared at him, but said nothing.

“Don’t tell me you have other intentions toward her?” Nasir saw the look on his face and instantly seemed to understand something. “She’s Jericho’s woman…”

“They’re about to get divorced. Didn’t you already know that?”

The man’s tone was indifferent, and his voice was much lower.

“They’re about to get divorced, but they haven’t yet, right? As long as they’re not divorced, they’re still legally married.”

“Mind your own business.”

Joaquin had no intention of responding to him. He quickly got up from the sofa and walked toward the second floor.

Nasir’s voice came from behind: “Joaquin, if Jericho finds out about this, he’ll probably skin you alive.”

“We’ll see if he has the guts and the skill to do it.”

The man’s footsteps on the stairs never stopped, but his voice rose a notch.

Nasir watched his back as he went upstairs, and the corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl up slightly.

All these years, Joaquin had devoted himself to his career, never having time for romance.

Who would have thought that when this thousand–year–old iron tree finally bloomed, it would be so ex- plosive.

If this news got out, with Joaquin’s status and position, the entire business circle of Straland would probably be shaken.

The next morning.

When Romina arrived at the wellness clinic, it was still raining outside.

Today’s rain wasn’t as heavy as yesterday’s, but it wasn’t light either. It affected the clinic’s business somewhat; from morning to noon, only two patients had come in.

She sat at the consultation desk, her eyes lowered as she replied to Elliana’s WhatsApp message, when a piece of gossip news suddenly popped up on her screen.

Seeing a familiar name, she quickly clicked on it.

It was a scandal about Nadine’s explosive temper, spreading wildly across major platforms.

Nadine had always maintained a good public image, never having such a scandal before.
