Ex-Husband's Regret (by Evelyn M.M) novel Chapter 58

I wanted to reach out and hold him but he was thousands of miles away.

“I’m so sorry, baby…May be he got caught up with work”

“But he promised me!” he shouts through the screen. “He said he will never break his promises and he did” he was full crying now and it tore me down to pieces.

Mother and Joyce, Rowan’s mom came to comfort him. I wanted to be there for him and it killed me that I couldn’t.

“He’ll make it up to you, my love…remember he loves you and he has never missed any of your functions” I try to soothe him.

He doesn’t answer. Just continues staring into nothing with silent tears running down his face. He looks so lost. When he doesn’t move or say anything, Joyce tells me that they'll look after him before ending the call.

I stomp out of the school and head towards the parking lot. Most cars were already gone.

I was just about to get into my own when I see Rowan’s black Mercedes drives in. He parks, gets out and rushes to me.

“I’m so fucking sorry I’m late…is the meeting over?” he was dressed casually, something that is very rare for him.

“Obviously, given it’s almost six thirty… four fucking hours after you were supposed to be here” I shout.

I was so pissed that I contemplated on murder

“I know you’re angry, but…”

“Angry doesn’t begin to cover what I fucking feel right now Rowan”
