Betrayed By Husband And Child (Romina) novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Cleaning?

She had almost died!

Romina bit back her fury. Kashton was just a little boy and didn’t mean what he

Perhaps she should Besides, Jericho was born indifferent.

Compromise was essential in marriage.

After all, they already had Kashton. She couldn’t file for a divorce, could she?

Later, Nadine fell from a high platform at a banquet and insisted Romina had pushed her.

Jericho and Kashton vouched for Nadine, not even bothering to check the surveillance footage.

Pressing a hand to her lower abdomen, Romina grabbed

Jericho’s sleeve, begging him to believe her till her voice cracked.

But he only frowned expressionlessly, slowly wiping his sleeve with a handkerchief.

He was disgusted by her touch.

With a cold sneer, Kashton shoved her aside hard. “You mean bitch. You don’t get to be my mommy! Why didn’t you die on the operating table while giving birth to me? Then Nadi could’ve been my mommy instead.”

Collapsing to the floor, Romina burst into laughter in desperation. How could she be so stupid, wasting all those years on those two men who never deserved her sacrifice?

Eventually, they had her imprisoned for intentional assault.

She spent three years in prison.

Those ruthless, brutal monsters turned her every day into pure torture.

Jericho and Kashton never even called, let alone visited her.

If not for … she would have already died in there.

Jericho said icily, “You’re an ex-con now, but Kash and I are still here to take you home. You should be grateful. Get in. Nadine is at home. I don’t wanna keep her waiting.”

Kashton echoed impatiently, “That’s right. Mommy, don’t be such a drama queen. Nadi promised to make me teddy bear cookies tonight. Let’s head back before the ice cream cake I got her melts.”

Romina remained motionless as their words reached her ears.

She couldn’t help but want to laugh sarcastically.

Teddy bear cookies?

Though they had always given her the cold shoulder, treating her unfairly while getting close to Nadine, she had always expected they’d come around one day.

But not anymore. Three years of torment had burned her hope to ashes.

It turned out her husband and son were never hers to keep.

She didn’t want them anymore.

She said to Jericho, her tone indifferent, “Let’s get a divorce.”

Kashton blurted out, “Mommy, you’re already an ex-con. If you get a divorce, what will people think of you?”

Even Jericho was stunned when he heard Romina’s words.

He had expected her to play the victim to ask for compensation.

After all, money had been her sole purpose for marrying him.

But a divorce?

Three years ago, she had gone all out just to stay by Kashton and his side.

And now, she had spent three years in prison.
