The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1596

Seeing Matilda's agitated expression and the impact she felt, Rosalind realized she had misspoken and hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, Mom. I shouldn’t have said that.”

Matilda, breathing heavily with a mix of anger and frustration, exclaimed, “I can’t believe I let myself be mocked by my own husband’s secret child! How useless can I get?”

Her words were not just spoken in anger but were a true reflection of her feelings and grievances.

When she found out that Joshua’s daughter was Thalassa, Matilda struggled to accept this reality, feeling a mix of distress and anger. She was also extremely averse to Thalassa, not wanting to see her at all. Every time she saw Thalassa, it was a reminder that her husband had been with another woman and even had a child with her. It was evidence of her husband’s betrayal!

But no matter how unwilling she was to accept this or how much anguish she felt, the fact remained that her husband’s child with another woman was already grown up. Apart from trying to suppress her pain and accept reality, what else could she do?

“Mom, I’m sorry...” Rosalind, feeling guilty for her words, apologized.

Just then, doctors and nurses wheeled Joshua out of the emergency room. Matilda, putting her distress aside, hurried to check on Joshua.

Various monitors beeped around him, his chest wrapped in bandages, with his hospital gown partially open, revealing bandages stained with iodine. His eyes were closed, unconscious.
