Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 342

I continue staring at the officers in shock. We all were. It’s like we were all frozen, not believing what was going on.

It wasn’t until they were done cuffing her and had begun dragging her that Trevor and Kate unfroze and moved into action.

“What the hell? You got the wrong person!” Trevor shouted, but the cops just gave him a dirty stare.

They stop and turn to look at him. Emma looked like she was in a dream. It’s like she’d detached somehow, and a look of unbelief was plastered on her face.

“I’m sure we didn't,” the blonde answered. “She told us herself that she was Emma Sharp and that’s who we were sent to arrest.”

Emma didn’t move, and she didn’t struggle. She was frozen in place, her eyes lost and confused. I get her, though. I was also confused as fuck. Why would they arrest her? Why would they think that she was responsible for my attempted murder?

“There has to be a mistake. Emma wouldn’t try to kill Ava no matter their issues,” Kate pleads, but her pleas fall on deaf ears.

“We are just following orders, ma'am," the other cop said. “I suggest you start looking for a lawyer.”

They start dragging Emma away, with Travis and Kate shouting profanities at them. The rest of us are left there, stunned, and completely out of it.

It happened so fast, or was it so slow? I can’t tell because I was having a hard time wrapping my head around everything that was happening. Emma couldn’t be the one to order my shouting, could she?

“Why did none of you do anything?” Trevor comes back and shouts at the rest of us.

“And what were we supposed to do?” Gabe fires back.
