Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 0140

I nod and begin to get out. He stops me by grabbing my hand.

“I want you to let me know anytime you have appointments” he tells me, his eyes staring deep into mine.

I stare at him once again, unable to understand what the hell was going on in his damn mind.

“Why the hell would I do that?” I ask in confusion, pulling my hand from his.
