The Ex-Wife's Secret (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 846

Chapter 846

“Alright, let’s go get something to eat,” Edward said, slinging his arm around her shoulders. “Then we can catch a movie. There’s this midnight horror flick I’ve been dying to watch. I’m so hyped.”

The two of them left together, all sweet and lovey–dovey.

Meanwhile, Irene was livid, about to explode from how much Miriam had pissed her off.

Heidi said, “I don’t like Miriam either. Edward is just fooling around. He’s only twenty. There’s no way he’d marry someone that old. Honestly, I think she’s pathetic.”

“That’s more like it,” Irene said, finally feeling a bit better. “Otherwise, Edward will end up with the same fate as Jonathan.”

“I mean, Jonathan’s got so much going for him. Why does he have to be so fixated on just one woman?” Heidi asked, shaking her head.

After a pause, Heidi said, “It must be because Jonathan is worried about the child. If you take custody and cut Teresa off, they’ll have no reason to stay in contact anymore.”

“You’re right,” Irene said, getting to her feet. “I’m heading home now. Tomorrow, I’ll go find Teresa and have a proper talk with her.”

After Irene left, Heidi said with a long sigh of relief, “Finally, she’s gone.”

Every time Irene came over, it was either to show off or to whine about something. No one could put up with that for long.

The next day at work, Teresa got a message from Irene asking to meet her alone. ‘Is she going to apologize this time?‘ Teresa wondered to herself.

Honestly, she wished she could sit down and have a peaceful, grown–up talk with Irene.

But every single time, that woman would give her that look of utter disdain, always acting like Teresa was chasing after her son.

‘Sorry, baby. You’ll have to put up with this for a bit,‘ Teresa murmured, gently rubbing her belly. She didn’t want Irene to notice she was pregnant, so she used a waist binder to hide it before heading out to meet her.

Teresa arrived at a private café five minutes late. She sat down across from Irene and explained, “Sorry, there was traffic.”

Irene studied her face. “You know why I came to meet you, right?”

Teresa asked, her tone half–mocking, “Are you here to apologize to me?”

“Apologize?” Irene said as she drummed her fingers on the table. “Why should I apologize to you? Just say how much you want. Name your

price.”

“What do you mean by saying that?” Teresa pressed, her confusion growing.

Irene spoke each word slowly and deliberately. “How much do you want in exchange for giving up custody of Mike and leaving Nareigh for

good?”

Teresa had hoped Irene might treat her a little better this time. ‘What was leven hoping for?‘ she scoffed inwardly at her wishful thinking.

“Why don’t you get lost yourself? Who are you to tell me to leave? If I ever go, I’m taking my kid with me. And trust me, none of your family will ever lay eyes on Mike again,” Teresa snapped back.
