Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 0290

Ava.

It’s been about a week since I was discharged from the hospital. Everything so far has been great, even

though I still have this small fear that everything will fall apart.

Emma wasn’t wrong that day. Rowan had always belonged to her. Sure, he is a human being and not simply a damn possession, but Emma always had a hold on his heart. Something I never fully understood.

I used to ask myself what made her special. I wondered how she garnered such love and loyalty from a formidable man such as Rowan. It used to bug me. Used to annoy me. While she had his soft side, I had

his mean and ugly side.

Now the tables are turned, and I’m not ashamed to say that I don’t fully trust this turn of events and

change of heart.

I see the gentleness and affection in his eyes for me. He looked at me like I always wanted, but there is

this nagging feeling that something isn’t really right.

I mean, when did this change happen? Is it before I was shot? Or after? Did the thought of losing me bring

him to his senses? Making him see what was always right in front of him, or was it something else?

He did tell me he was jealous when I started dating Ethan. So maybe that is it. Men are jealous and

possessive creatures. He probably didn’t like it that another man was taking his place in my life when I’d

worshiped him since I was a kid.

“Ava, should I prepare a bath for Iris?” asks Teresa from the doorway to the living room.

“Yes, please”

It was a beautiful day, and the sun was shining. It was the perfect day for my little angel to have her bath.

Minutes later, Teresa informed me that everything was ready. Picking Iris up, I head to the bathroom,
