Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

Chapter 0351

“What do you mean?” he asks, clearly not believing what I was saying.

Before I could answer, a knock on the door interrupted. Brian excuses himself and goes to open the door. For some reason, I’m not surprised when Rowan walks into the room.

Rowan studies me before speaking: “You remembered something.” He says it more like a statement than a question.

I simply nod my head. Something flutters inside my heart. How did he read me so well? I didn’t even have to tell him anything. He just knew.

“Who was it?” Rowan asks almost in a pleading voice.
