Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 40

  1. Avenging angel

“How dare you?” the anger in Ava’s voice was palpable.

Brenda sneers as if she had more important things to do. “It’s not my fault that the she can’t look

where she’s going. This is a limited edition Luis Vuitton dress and the brat almost ruined it by

splashing juice on it”

Brenda and Ava have never gotten along. I knew she was bullied at school and that Brenda was

her biggest tormentor.

The girl I they were talking about was cowaring behind Ava. She couldn’t have been more than

five years old. She was cute, with a pretty pink dress, a heart shaped face, round lips and long

orphan child who doesn’t know the meaning of what it is to be rich ruin a dress that costs more

than she’ll ever see in her life”

Shocked gasps fill the room. Brenda turns and realizes that she had an audience and that they

aren’t happy with her.

“That’s not what I meant…” she rushes to save face after noticing the angry gazes that were

directed at her.

“You know what? Leave. Given your attitude towards these children, I don’t see the need for your
