Ex-Husband's Regret (by Evelyn M.M) novel Chapter 111

“Please come in” Letty says behind me, startling the crap out of me.

I realize that I had just been staring at them like a fool. Too lost in my head to say anything to them.

I move aside and let them through. My mind still reeling from the fact that The Howell’s were in my house right now. Also that they were potentially my family.

“How are you even out?” I ask turning to face Ethan the moment we were all seated.

“Bail” is all he said, his eyes looking everywhere except in my direction.

Yesterday Brian had asked me if I wanted to press charges against Ethan. He said that it would make our case stronger against him.

I wasn’t able to give him an answer because I wasn’t sure. Yes, I get what he did to me was horrible and I don’t know if I can ever forgive him or forget.

Despite all that, Ethan has also taught me a lot about myself and life. I just didn’t know if I had it in me to press charges.

Travis was pressing charges and so were the police department. To get in, Ethan had faked documents. As much I couldn’t press the charges myself, Brian said that they would still do it because they had opened a file on me when the murder attempts had began.

“I’m sorry for what my son did to you, Ava” Nora says, her voice cutting through the tense and awkward atmosphere.

I just stare at her. I didn’t know what to feel honestly. The fact that she still called her his son meant that she was okay with what he did. If she was, then I am not sure I want her in my life if that the case, and if it turns out that she is my mother.
