Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 338

Chapter 0338 

I continue staring at Emma in shock. When Mother said that she’s been in a depressing state, I didn’t think it would be this bad. 

She looked nothing like her old self. She did try to dress up, or maybe Mother tried forcing her to dress up, and even though her black pair of jeans, navy blue halter top, and a pair of wedge sandals looked nice, they did nothing to improve her appearance. 

Her face was ashen; her glorious blonde mane now looked greasy and thinning. Her cheek bones were also pronounced, but not in a good way, and she looked like she had lost a lot of weight. 

“Oh my God,” mom whispers next to me. 

We take a step forward. I wasn’t really sure what to do. I didn’t know whether to welcome them or just avoid them. 

Mom takes the initiative and leads me towards them. They both turn and look at us. 

“Welcome,” I murmur, feeling completely awkward. 

Kate smiles at me, but when her eyes fall on mom and she looks at her protective hand around my waist, her happiness dims a little bit.

Kate nods her head and guides her daughter. She wasn’t a stranger at this house, so she knew where she was going. 

“That girl is in a world of pain and regret,” Mom says in sympathy after both of them have left. 

She was right, though. Parts of me feel like I’ve been there before, but I don’t know why.

like the interior because I felt like I was living in Emma’s shadow, and he proposed we change everything. 

Obviously, that hadn’t happened. With everything that went down after that night, I completely forgot about it. Now, I wonder if that will even ever take place. 

I shake myself from those thoughts. Right now, it doesn’t even matter. Not when I was yet to make a decision. 

“Mom, you can go and mingle with the rest; I’ll call Noah down, and we’ll invite the guests.” 

She nods her head before squeezing my hand and leaving. I quickly headed up the stairs and called an excited Noah. When we get down, we find Rowan standing near the door, waiting for
