Betrayed By Husband And Child (Romina) novel Chapter 54

chapter54

“Why aren’t you saying anything? What are you spacing out for?”

Jericho waved his hand in front of her eyes.

Romina snapped back to reality and nodded lightly. “Yes, he’s much better now.”

At that moment, her phone rang on the table. She quickly walked over, picked it up, and saw a message from Lina’s homeroom teacher, Abbie Payne, asking her to bring the child to school at nine o’clock.

Only then did she remember that she was supposed to take Lina to school–today.

After replying to Abbie, she was about to exit her phone when she noticed a missed call.

It wasn’t from her main SIM card, but from the secondary one.

She used the secondary SIM for contacting patients and quartz clients. During her years in prison, Elliana had kept it for her, and only recently had it been returned to her.

For this reason, she had even bought a dual–SIM phone.

Seeing that phone number, it looked increasingly familiar.

It felt like she’d seen it somewhere before.

After a moment, as if recalling something, she quickly opened the contacts on her main SIM.

She looked up Joaquin’s number and compared it to the one on the

secondary SIM.

Her pupils instantly widened.

Why did Joaquin have the number for her secondary SIM?

Where did he get it from?

“Today is Kash’s graduation ceremony. You should be attending, right? The teacher said both parents should come to give the child a perfect graduation.”

Just then, a familiar voice sounded from behind, interrupting Romina’s thoughts.

Hearing footsteps behind her, Romina quickly turned off her phone

screen.

Before the man could get close, she swiftly tossed her phone into her bag by the bed.

She hadn’t expected Jericho to still be there.

Romina glanced back at him with a cold, indifferent look. “I have something very important to handle today. I don’t have time to attend his graduation ceremony.”

She had just taken a step when the man suddenly grabbed her wrist. “Romina, Kash isn’t just my child. You already skip his parent–teacher meetings, and now you won’t even attend his graduation, which is so important. Is this how you act as a mother?”

“Anyway, as a mother and wife, I’m dispensable to both you and him. What difference does it make if I go or not? As long as Nadine goes, isn’t that enough?”

Her tone was calm, but her voice was full of coldness.

Joaquin had only intended to go downstairs, but unexpectedly, he overheard the entire conversation between the two.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of the man’s lips.

Only after hearing footsteps inside the door did he finally go downstairs.

Just as Jericho opened the door, he saw Joaquin’s figure heading downstairs.

At that moment, a familiar voice called out, “Dad, today is my graduation ceremony. Will Nadi come? I called her, but she didn’t answer…”

Hearing the child’s voice, Jericho instinctively looked toward the man going downstairs.

After confirming the man hadn’t turned back, he replied calmly, “I’ll call Nadi for you later, okay?”

“Okay! Thank you, Dad.” Kashton said expectantly, “Mom doesn’t have to come, but Nadi must come. You have to make sure Nadi comes, alright?”

“You don’t want your mom to go? You’d rather have Nadi come instead?”

Jericho deliberately lowered his voice a little as he asked the child in front of him.

Kashton pouted, then said indifferently, “If Mom goes, she’ll just embarrass me. But Nadi is different. Nadi is a movie star, and she’s even won Best Actress. If she could attend, my classmates would definitely be jealous…”
