Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 19

Eye opener

I sat at my desk going through some papers that needed my attention. I try to focus but I can’t. My

I still can’t believe how much she’s fucking changed. It was safe to say that the AvaI knew was

part of me was bothered by it. It was so fucking strange how bothered I was and I hated how she

was now constantly on my fucking mind.

I eventually give up on trying to focus and stand up. Moving to the windows, I stare outside, trying

to clear Ava from my mind.

Brian was around sixty years. Despite his age, he was still fit and on top of that, he was still sharp.

He was a retired detective and had also served in the army when he was younger.
