HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 1038

[Josh.M: I'm going to Raven this afternoon. You probably know that my club is having a friendly match against Raven. I hope I get to play against David. I want to see just how good your boyfriend really is.]

It had been more than three hours since the message was sent, but Eli had not replied at all. Josh clicked his tongue in annoyance because, once again, Eli had ignored him. Although he did not like it, Josh could not force Eli to keep replying to his messages.

"Come on, Josh," one of his teammates called. "The shuttle is ready. We need to warm up before the game."

In the end, Josh slipped the phone he had been watching all this time into his pocket. Letting out a long sigh, he said, "All right. Let's go to Raven."

That day, the Raven University multipurpose building was packed with students. The friendly matches between Raven University, Miller University, Oakloam University, and Olahoma University were one of the major events held before the intercollegiate competition series began.

Cheers could be heard from almost every corner of the building, while players from several other universities were also seen arriving to watch the games. The team Josh led as a representative of Miller University was there as well.

Eli was not particularly interested in staying there for too long. However, since David was playing, she came as usual. After the match ended, Eli happened to see someone she had known for a very long time walking out of the players' area.

Josh.

He had just finished playing against Oakloam University in the friendly match held earlier. The moment he saw Eli, his face immediately brightened.

"Eli?"

Eli smiled back. "Josh."

Josh immediately approached her. "I thought you weren't going to come."

"I came because David is playing."

Josh nodded slightly. However, his happiness at seeing Eli was much greater than his curiosity about the match. It had been almost two months since Eli had gone home. Two months without seeing the girl in person made him realize just how much he missed having Eli around.

"You really haven't gone home for two months." Josh's voice sounded like a mild complaint.

Eli lowered her face. She knew she was at fault. "Yes. Like I said, I've been busy."

"I understand." Josh smiled faintly. "But still, I feel like you're starting to forget about home."

Eli chuckled softly. "I haven't forgotten."

"Then prove it."

Eli lifted her face. "How?"

"Come with me for a while. Oh, why didn't you reply to my message?"

Eli looked at Josh guiltily. "I'm sorry. I had a discussion with Professor Benedict this morning. He really drained me emotionally."
