Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 141

Chapter 0141 

“What? It’s true and I am so proud of you” 

He gives me a mischievous smile and I just know he got me right where he wanted me. 

“Can I play video games then since I’m a math genius?” 

I just knew it. He has been battering me up. 

I sigh. “Fine, but only for an hour” 

He rushes up the stairs screaming thank you over and over again making me smile in the process. 

“Hey, Maria. You’re free to leave” I tell our nanny as I walk into the kitchen. 

“Are you sure?” 

“Yes. Now go” 

She smiles at me before taking her things. Fifteen minutes later she’s gone and I wish I hadn’t insisted on 

her to leaving. 

With Noah in his room. I was alone. I had nothing to occupy my mind and so my thoughts started running 

rampant. 

I was just contemplating starting dinner early when my front door opened. 

“Yoohoo. Ava where are you?” 

Letty voice brings a smile to my face. 

“In the kitchen” I shout back. 

Minutes later, she walks into the room and I am surprised to see Corrine following behind her. 

“Look who I found. We got here at the same time” Letty says sitting at the kitchen island. 

I’d told Letty how Corrine stood up for me against Anita. She has immediately liked her, reasoning that 

anyone who stood up for me was worth her respect. 

“What are you doing here?” I ask Corrine. 

“Well, you gave me an inch at the restaurant and I thought to myself, she’s ready. I’ve always wanted to be 

your friend, so here I am.” 

There was this part of me that was sceptical. It wanted to shut her off. Instead I push it back. It was time I 

stepped pushing people away. 

“Well, welcome to my humble home” 

She smiles and I smile back at her. Genuinely happy that she was here. 

“I came for an entirely different reason. Have you seen the gossip column? It was posted like an hour 

ago” Letty asks. 

“No. Why?” 

She hands me a phone and I read the caption. With each word I read, my mood sours. 

[Billionaire Rowan Woods seen going on a lunch date with ex–wife, Ava Sharp months after their divorce 

and weeks after rumours of him dating her elder sister, Emma Sharp] 

Below was a picture of Rowan escorting me to the restaurant with his hand on my lower back. 

“Shit” I curse. “This is going to cause unnecessary drama” 

Emma was going to shit a brick. I wasn’t afraid of her, but I just didn’t want trouble. The image portrayed a 

certain intimacy that wasn’t truly there. Anyone looking at it was going to think that there was something 

more between us. 

“Is there something going on that I’m unaware of?” Letty asks as Corrine just stares between the two of 

“Nothing. He unexpectedly showed up at my appointment and then asked me if we could talk over lunch” 

after that I recount everything that happened. Including his apology. 

When I am done, I am even more confused than I was before. Things were just not making sense no 

matter which angle I tried looking at it from. 

“What if he is genuinely sorry?” Letty asks. 

That is a question I kept asking myself since he apologized. I kept pushing it to the back of my mind 

because I was just not strong enough to deal with it right now. 

1 don’t know” I sigh in defeat. “Forgiveness is something that has to be earned and so far he has done nothing to earn it. All he has managed to do is leave me with confusion and more unanswered questions” 

Honestly, how can I move past everything? He has spent the last nine years drilling into me that he hates my fucking guts and now all of a sudden he’s sorry?

His quick three hundred and sixty degree turn just doesn’t seem genuine. There is no way someone can 

change that fast. 

“What do you think Corrine?” Letty asks her since she had been too quiet. 

“I think these are the actions of a man who doesn’t know he’s in love”
