Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 149

Chapter 0149 

When I was around her, she rarely smiled. Let alone laugh. If she smiled, it was cold and detached. The fact that someone else was making her laugh was a fucking hard pill to swallow. 

“Yeah, what did Noah say to make you so mad?” Travis jumps in looking at me curiously. 

“Nothing. Just some stuff about their new neighbor being cozy in Ava’s house and making her laugh” I 

ground out, fisting my hands. 

Travis and Gabe look at each other before laughing. I didn’t care though, because my mind was in turmoil. a 

The need to punch something or someone was there and it was fucking strong. All I could see is red. 

There was this primal part of me that wanted to scream that she was mine. That no other man should 

dare come close to her. 

That part of me took me by surprise because I never considered her as mine. She has always just been 

Ava. The woman w 

destroyed my fucking life. 

“It’s obvious he’s trying to make you jealous” Gabe states after their laughter dies down. “It’s not a secret that he wants you and Ava back together. He wanted to see your reaction and from how you’ve reacted it just proves to him that you care about Ava and that you care a lot” 

I glare at my brother. I want to deny what he just said, but I can’t. If I was being honest, then I would admit that I was feeling jealous. Pure, undiluted jealousy. 

I want Ava to smile at me. To laugh a lot around me. I want to be the one in her house helping her set the damn table. Heck, I want to be the one to help her plant her vegetable garden. 

The intense feeling brings my whole world to a stand still. I am Rowan Woods for fucks sake, yet I don’t mind getting down on my knees, with my hands in the dirt to help Ava plant her garden. As long as I was next to her, as long as I was the only man near her, then nothing else mattered. 

I am shocked as those thoughts cross my mind. I never would have imagined wanting anything to do with Ava, but here I was, a completely changed man. 

“Do you want Ava back?” Travis looks at me seriously. 

His question take me aback, but I don’t have a fucking answer. How do I tell him that I was confused as shit? How do I tell him that I can’t connect or comprehend all these feelings that were running amuck in my heart. That the intense feelings I have for Ava now, confused the living daylights out of me? 

it just didn’t make any fucking sense. Why now? Why not all those years back? 

The endless questions were giving me a headache. Worst of all, I didn’t have a damn answer to any of 

them. 

groan then stand up instead of answering. I ignore the questioning looks from my parents, the 

triumphant look from Noah and the confused look from Kate. 

I needed space to breathe. Space to sort out my head and feelings. I thought I would get it inside the 

house away from everyone, but I was wrong. 

Emma was sitting in the living room alone. 

When she sees me, she jumps on her feet and approaches me. 

“Please, Rowan, talk to me. Tell me how I can fix things” she pleads. 

I don’t like hurting her, but that’s exactly what I will be doing if I continue giving her false hope. I don’t
