Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 329

Chapter 0329 

“I still don’t like her, and I don’t think I’ll ever like her, but I understand Mom,” he finally says after a while. “I’ll invite her then, but don’t expect me to ever be her friend.” 

I nod, my smile growing bigger. “Thank you, my love.” 

He hugs me, and my heart settles down. I haven’t hugged my baby boy in more than a week and a half. It felt good to have him in my arms again. 

“I love you, mommy,” he murmurs against my chest. 

My heart soars. There is just something about your baby calling you mommy even though he’s no longer a little baby. I can’t describe it, but it’s one of the best feelings. 

“I love you too, my sweets” I whisper back, “Now hurry up or you’ll be late for school.” 

We pull away from each other. After kissing his forehead, I leave his room and head downstairs. I greet Teresa, who was busy making breakfast, before taking a glass of water, some painkillers, and heading up the stairs again. 

Entering the master bedroom, I was hoping Rowan was still asleep and I could just leave the water and pills, but unfortunately for me he’s awake. 

To be honest, I don’t think I’m ready to face or talk to him. Without saying a word, I walk across the room and place the items on the bedside table. 

I was about to leave, but just like yesterday night he stops me. 

“Morning, Ava” he greets, his eyes 

shadowed. 

I know it’s petulant, but I ignore his greetings. I try to pull away, but he holds firm, refusing 

to let go. 

“Let go of my hand,” I demand in a crisp voice. 

“Not until you listen to me.” 

I was starting to get angry. The day had started well with my reconciliation with Noah, and now he wanted to ruin it. Over my dead body. I wasn’t going to let him. 

“Listen to what? To how you used my body as a substitute for Emma?” I fume, trying to pull 

my hand away. 

He doesn’t budge. Instead, he tugs, and I end up falling on his lap. Once there, he wraps both of his hands around me and cages me in. I try to free myself, but it’s no use. He was stronger 

than me, and twice my size. 

I keep struggling, even after he kisses my exposed shoulders.

“What I said, I said in a fit of anger. You know me, Ava, and you know I say things without thinking when I’m angry. It’s not an excuse, but I want you to understand me. Emma had said that you hurt her and that you’d told her some pretty hurtful things. I didn’t know she’d lied, so I came to confront you. I wanted to hurt you just like you hurt her. I knew those words would kill you, that’s why I said them in the first place.” 

I stop struggling, but not by much. Hearing what he said for some reason just hurt even more.
