Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 456

Isn’t love beautiful? But I sensed that something happened. Something changed. If everything was okay, he should be with her right now. He never would have married me.

His voice is hoarse as he continues. “Everything was perfect. She was just amazing and every day I continued to fall more and more in love with her. I had yet to introduce her to Rowan because I wanted her to myself. I wasn’t hiding her, but I wanted more time with her before she met my family. Every day I woke up thinking of how lucky I was to find someone like her. You know our world, Harper, and you know finding a love match isn’t easy.”

That’s just how our society works. It’s hard finding someone who truly loves you. Some of the marriages in our society are business deals and few are founded on love and respect. Then there are the gold diggers. Marriages based on what you can get from your rich partners. I think those are the majority.

“I was so in love I could barely see or think straight. She’d managed to get me to clean up my act because I didn’t want to hurt her. I didn’t want to break her heart. My eyes were on her alone and no one other girl even registered in my head. That’s how deep I was in” he pauses, catching his breath before continuing.

“We had been dating for around seven months and everything was going so well I thought it was a fucking dream. This one day, I’d talked to Rowan and my parents and told them I’d be inviting someone to our weekend lunch. They agreed. I was so fucking excited because I’d been dying to introduce her to my family.”

His voice catches, and I see the shadows in those eyes. This was going to be bad, I just knew it in my heart.

“We weren’t supposed to meet that day, but I didn’t think it would be a problem. She didn’t live on campus, so I went to her apartment. With my excitement, I forgot to tell her that I was stopping by, but looking at it now, I see it as a blessing in disguise. I had a key to her apartment, so I let myself in. She destroyed me that day.”

Rubbing my chest, I push the uncomfortable feeling in my heart.
