Betrayed By Husband And Child (Romina) novel Chapter 36

chapter36

Before she could finish her sentence, Joaquin interrupted her

directly. “If you can’t hold your liquor, you shouldn’t drink. You

should be grateful that the person who shared a room with you

last night was me.”

The implication was that if it had been another man, she might

not have been so lucky.

Whether it was Jericho or anyone else.

Romina’s lips curled into a slight smile, but there was a hint of

bitterness in it. “Jericho and I have long been married in name

only. Even if we really shared a room, he wouldn’t do anything

to me.”

“The reason you think that is because you don’t understand

men well enough.”

After hearing what he said, Romina’s body involuntarily

stiffened.

When she turned her head and met his gloomy gaze, a chill ran

through her.

She didn’t say anything more, just smiled and then lowered her

head.

She might not understand men, but she knew Jericho well

enough.

His heart was filled only with his unforgettable love; there was

no room for her at all. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ended up

like this.

Romina didn’t let Joaquin drive her to the entrance of Breeze

Vista, but got out of the car nearby instead.

Because she had just gotten out of prison, and after what

happened at the orphanage, she suspected that Jericho had sent

someone to follow her. So she guessed there might be Jericho’s

spies near Breeze Vista as well.

Perhaps because of her time in prison, she had become even

more cautious after getting out.

She would no longer let herself be easily caught out.

When Romina got home, she received a call from Elliana.

She had just put the phone to her ear when Elliana’s anxious

voice came through. “Romi, we’ve found the whereabouts of

the child.”

Romina’s hand holding the cup trembled instantly.

She asked in disbelief, “Where is the child?”

“In a very remote orphanage, close to the outskirts, about thirty

kilometers from here. I’ll send you the address right away.

You’d better bring all the documents with you, and if possible,

take the child away today!”

“Okay.””

After Romina hung up, a location popped up on WhatsApp.

There was also the phone number of the director, Cade

Ferguson.

Before going to the orphanage, Romina called Cade to ask about

the child’s basic situation.

After confirming that the child was indeed there, she quickly

gathered the documents, hurried downstairs, and took a taxi to

the orphanage.

By the time she arrived at the orphanage, it was already close to

eleven o’clock.

Seeing that she was a stranger, the security guard stopped her

immediately. “Ma’am, what are you here for? Do you have an

appointment?”

This orphanage was managed even more strictly than the ones

she had visited before.

Romina showed the security guard her recent call with Cade

and accurately stated the child’s name.

After checking with Cade, the security guard finally let her in.

Romina had thought that with such strict management, the

orphanage must also provide good education for the children.

But as soon as she walked in, she saw some children bullying

Lina.

Romina had just stepped onto the stairs when she heard a

child’s cries from above. “Stop hitting me! If you keep hitting

me, I’ll tell Cade…”

“I’ll let you tell Cade! I’ll let you tell Cade!”

“Ah! It hurts…”

Romina rushed up and saw several older girls bullying a much

younger girl.

There were no adults nearby, so the older girls were even more

brazen, kicking and punching the little girl.
