Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 298

Chapter 0298

“It’s never a good thing when someone starts a sentence like that.” His brows pull together in a frown as he stares at me. It was almost as if he was trying to figure out if he did something wrong.

I don’t say anything. First of all, I was trying to come down from the high of sexual arousal. Second, I didn’t yet know how to broach the subject with him. I was trying my best to put my thoughts in order.

“You’re scaring me, Ava,” he says, shocking me and making me scoff a bit.

“Nothing scares you.”

And it was the dam n truth. Nothing ever scared the man standing in front of me. Have things changed that much? Did something happen during the period I couldn’t remember to make him afraid?

Standing up, he walks the short distance to where I am standing. Cupping my cheeks, he gives me a small, quick kiss. It wasn’t as powerful as the one we had moments ago, but it still weakened my knees



“Before, yes, but now? Now I’m scared of losing you,” he pauses as his eyes drill into mine. Showing me the truth and sincerity in his words. “I’m scared of living in a world without you.”

I’m taken aback by his confession. Never in a million years did I ever think I would hear Rowan utter such sweet words at me. It felt really good to hear them. It felt like a dream come true.

I used to lie in bed every night, thinking how good it would feel if Rowan wanted me. I wanted him to love me and care for me. I wanted to be the one that his heart beats for. I always imagined how happy I would feel when he told me sweet things.

It was happening now, and it has been happening since I woke up. I can’t stop the flutter in my heart or the dam n butterflies that are causing havoc inside me.

“You’ll never lose me, Rowan.” I finally get my mouth to move and say something.

I see the small doubt filter in his eyes. It puzzles me that he doesn’t believe me. That part of him doubts and thinks that I’ll ever leave him. Why would I? Especially now that I have everything I’ve always wanted and desired.

the first step and walks away from me, I don’t think I ever will. I can’t imagine anything that would cause me to walk away from this version of Rowan. “Trust me,” I tell him while holding his hand. “There’s nothing that can take me away from you. Not even death His eyes continue shift between mine. As if he was trying to search for the truth of my words in them. I let from the depths of my soul.


He nods his head and then takes my hand. His eyes search the living room. They land on the baby monitor. Without a second thought he grabs it and silently leads us to his office.

“So, what did you want us to talk about?” he asks once we get to his office.

The door is locked, and I watch him as he confidently sits down.

“I want to go see Ethan,” I say, deciding to rip it off like a freaking band aid.

“Over my dead body.” The words are growled rather than said.

The calm atmosphere suddenly becomes charged. The peacefulness and calmness that had come over him completely disappears. In its place is a cold mask and anger.
