Ex-Husband's Regret (Ava and Rowan) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 0152

I watch my lawyer nervously as he goes through the business proposal Corrine sent me.

I have to hand it to her. The woman worked fast. It hasn’t even been a day since we discussed the ideal and already she had the proposal ready.

It was either that or she had already worked on it beforehand and she was just waiting for Letty and I to agree.

Staring at Rodgers, I wonder what was going on inside his head right now. He has been not only my

lawyer but my advisor since I made my first million. I never get into a business without having his input.

first. So far he is the best and has never been wrong.

All the businesses he told me had the potential to prosper actually did and those he warned me against ended up failing. So as you can see, his input is really important.

“What do you think?” I ask him when I can’t take the nervousness anymore.

His eyes scan the document one more time before he lifts his head.

“It’s a great idea. I can see its potential” he answers.

I’ve worked with the man long enough to know that there was a ‘but‘ in there. With the way he paused, it was clear that he had concerns, but he didn’t know how to let me know.

“What is it?” I prompt, wanting him to speak up before my heart bursts in anxiety.

He stares at me carefully. As if he was trying to gather his thoughts and organize them before speaking.

The more he continued to stare at me without speaking, the more anxious I got.

“Spit it out, Rodger’s”

“I just feel like this isn’t really a traditional idea” he finally says.

“know it’s not”

“Plus there is the other aspect.” He pauses before continuing. “Have you thought about how this will affect the foundation aspect of your life”

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea. It’s actually really good and has the potential to become a huge company, All I’m saying is that as the founder of Hope foundation you have an image to uphold. Now that people

“Okay. And thanks once again Rodger’s for your help

“No problem. After all, you do pay me a hefty amount to make sure I sort out your worries” he says with a wink, making me chuckle.

Tl see you, Ava”

See you too, Rodger’s”

He leaves after that and I immediately pick up my phone. I was going to talk to Letty first, then Comine

She picks after the first ring.

Letty, I’ve got..” she cuts me off before I can finish my sentence.

I’m really sorry Ava. I’ve wanted to apologize, I just didn’t know where to start”

Her voice is so remorseful and so sad. It makes me want to soothe her by taking away what was worrying her

“What are you talking about, Letty? What are you sorry about?”

I stare at the wall opposite me in confusion. As far as I can tell, we haven’t gotten into an argument. She hasn’t done anything that would warrant me forgiving her.
