Cody, with a dark expression, said, “Riley, you need to apologize to Yara right now and then go back to taking care of our daughter. For her sake, I’m willing to overlook this.”
I let out a harsh laugh. “You’re talking about our daughter? When she was suffering from pneumonia, you ran off to be with this woman and left her alone at home. Where was your concern then?”
Cody ignored my words, acting like he had all the answers. “With your attitude, it’s no wonder our daughter turned out this way. You’ve clearly harmed her.”
“I’ve decided that as soon as she’s out of the hospital, we’re getting a divorce. She can’t stay with you any longer.”
“And you need to apologize to Yara today!”
I scoffed. “And what if I don’t?”
“Then you leave me no choice!”
Cody yanked me by the arm, while Yara grabbed the urn from my hands. I tried to rush at her, but Cody held me back.
Yara, with a triumphant look, dumped the ashes out of the urn and replaced them with the ashes of the teddy bear.
Cody stared at me with cold contempt. “You shouldn’t even go to the hospital. With your attitude, you might just end up harming our daughter.”
Just then, Cody’s phone rang. He answered with a strained smile.
