Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 27

Lucky woman
Anonymous POV.

I am pissed off. That is an understatement. I am beyond pissed off, I was downright furious. Once

“She’s already escaped you thrice!” I boomed, feeling the need to end is pathetic life.

He doesn’t speak. Instead he continues staring at the ground like it was interesting.
