Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 20

  1. Eye opener

Rowan.

I sat at my desk going through some papers that needed my attention. I try to focus but I can’t. My

would ever know how she was fairing.

I still can’t believe how much she’s fucking changed. It was safe to say that the AvaI knew was

When Emma decided that she was moving back, I was afraid that Ava would cause us problems.

That she would be a nuisance like she was back when she was a teenager. She proved me wrong

part of me was bothered by it. It was so fucking strange how bothered I was and I hated how she

He was a retired detective and had also served in the army when he was younger.
