Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 0205

I slowly turn in the direction of the sound to find Rowan seated next to me. It’s like I’d wished him into existence. That wasn’t all. For the first time since I’ve known him, Rowan wasn’t wearing a suit. He had a black V–neck t–shirt and blue jeans.

“What are you doing here?” I stammer, still not believing he was here.

“Noah mentioned you’d be here, so here I am” he shrugs his shoulder casually as if what he just said

wasn’t insane.

Unable to withstand his presence anymore, I stand up and walk away without saying another word. I hear him calling my name, but I ignore him.

I go to the bathroom and try to calm myself. Why now? Why couldn’t he have been like this years ago? Just when I’ve decided to move on, he gets a change in character? It doesn’t work like that.

Splashing water on my face, I harden my heart. It doesn’t matter why he all of a sudden wants to be part

of my life. He and I are done. We were done before we even began.

After I feel more anchored, I step outside only to bump into someone. The scent of the cologne

immediately alerts me to who the person I bumped into is.
