Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 442

Eh, what do I say to that? I’m not a believer of positive and negative energies.

“So, if I may ask, why are you here, Emma? What made you decide on therapy?” her question comes as a surprise and for a moment I fumble with my answer.

“I didn’t want to come. Hell, I’m not even the one that booked it, but my friend thinks it will be beneficial for me. She thinks I need to heal and forgive myself before I can move forward.”

The words just tumble out of my mouth without warning, which shocks me. I never intended to tell her the truth.

She smiles at me, her face radiating peace. “Honesty, I like that. That’s one thing that I prefer my clients having. Without honesty, how can I help them, right?”

When I don’t say anything, she continues.

“You mentioned forgiving yourself, am I wrong to assume that you feel guilty about something?”

“I feel guilty about a lot of things,”

What the hell? Did she do something to me? Is there something in the humidifier that makes people open up and talk? Because how the hell did I admit that to her so easily when I never admitted it to Molly?

“Guilt is a strong emotion. What else do you feel?”

“Regret, loss”

“That’s good. Guilt and regret usually go hand in hand. It’s hard to feel regret and not guilt and vice versa. In your case, I think you lost someone precious to you, and the guilt and regret of not valuing them is eating you inside”

I fight back the tears, because she was damn right. She hit the mark on the spot.
