Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 446

I stay quiet as I watch him take off his coat, then tie, then socks. The rest of his clothes come off, until he’s left in nothing but his boxers. I watch him as he crosses the room and disappears into the bathroom. Seconds later, the shower turns on, and I pull my eyes from the door, and focus straight on. Not really seeing anything.

My mind wanders back to Emma.

I got my happy ending, but what about her? Should I even be calling it a happy ending when Rowan was hers in the beginning? Would they have been together had I let go? Would they have been happy?

All these questions keep running through my head. All these doubts keep making me question my decision to stay with Rowan. I want everyone happy. I hate knowing that I got my happy ending while Emma and Calvin didn’t.

Maybe if I’d let go, Emma and Rowan would have remained together. They would have remained in love. Then Calvin would have moved on and so would I. Everyone would have gotten their happy ending.

“Ava, are you okay?” his voice pulls me from my musings.

I stare up at him to find him in nothing but a towel. It's low on his hips, and that delicious V is visible for me to see. Water droplets run slowly down his chest and abs, and for a second I forget what he had asked me.

This is the effect he had on me. One look at him, and I completely forget everything.

Sighing, I look away from his naked chest. “I met Emma today, and we spent some time together.”

When I stare at his eyes, there is nothing at the mention of her name. No regret. No longing. No love. There was absolutely nothing.
