Goodbye, Mr. Regret
Chapter 1
As soon as she closed the car door, the world's noise vanished.
Jessica Greene stared at the liver cancer diagnosis in her lap, her hazel eyes rimmed red. The paper trembled in her hands, crumpling beneath her grip.
The doctor had told her she'd missed the window for surgery-six months left, at best.

Lawson had told her she should come.
Seven years had passed since the day Timothy, once the untouchable darling of high society, became her husband.
In all those years, he'd never once brought her to a public event.

She hadn't planned to go to the school event at all.
But she couldn't bear the thought of disappointing her son.
She could shut Timothy out of her heart, but she couldn't do the same to Henry- the little boy she'd carried for nine long months.
