Ex-Husband's Regret (Ava and Rowan) novel Chapter 223

Chapter 0223

The thought of that brings a certain kind of panic inside me. I didn’t want to think of that. I didn’t want to let go of my dream of being with Rowan. I stay quiet as I fight her words in my head.

“Emma?” she calls.

I know her; she wants me to agree. She wants me to tell her that I’ll think about it, but I don’t want to.

I’m saved from answering her when a knock sounds on my door.

have to go, Molly. There is someone at the door” I tell her in a hurry as I walk towards said door.

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing, Em. This…”

I hang up the phone before she can finish her sentence.

Opening the door, I’m surprised to find mom on the other side. She wasn’t smiling, but hope still bubbles

inside me.

She doesn’t wait for an invitation, she just walks in.

“I’m going to make this short,” she says, and all the hope that I had a moment ago shrinks and dies.

I close the door and face her. Looking at her, I fight my tears when I notice the angry fire dancing behind her eyes.

“I want to meet my grandson. I expect you to properly introduce him to me,” she begins. “You’re also going to acknowledge him as your son and part of the Sharp family. You’re going to establish a bond with him, get to know him, and you’re going to include him in your life. Am I understood?”

I stare at her wide–eyed. She couldn’t be serious, right? Was she really going to force me to get to know him?

“You can’t be serious, Mom. I don’t want to know him!” I shout, appalled by the idea.

I’ve regretted him since I learned I was pregnant, so how could I turn around and try and build a life with him?
