All Chapters of My Ex-Husband’s Regret: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Henry. I let out a sigh for the nth time today, since I woke up my day has been going shitty with Emily’s whines and nagging and now my day just got shittier by trying to get my little girl to eat. “Please Jas, just take a little bite from this food and daddy promise to get you any ice cream you want.” I begged. My hand has been hanging on the air for some minute now and I was getting tired of it. Jasmine wouldn’t take a single spoon of food from the cereal I prepared for her and it was truly getting frustrating. “I want mommy.” She muttered, then took her eyes from the little toy in her hand to mine. Her blue eyed peered into mine and I sighed. I don’t know how to explain this to her anymore, no matter how simple I try to place it she just wouldn’t stop asking for her mother. “Mommy isn’t here Jas now eat your food.” She stubbornly shook her head. “I won’t eat until I see mommy. I want mommy back daddy, please bring her back.” Her lips pouted as they started wobbling again, I

Gwen. I took another long drag of deep breath as I peered at the huge house before me for the nth time. This was it, I was here and all I needed right now was the courage to go in and meet them and that was something I was lacking right now—courage. I kept on asking myself through the ride if I was ready to meet them or if they would accept me back as their daughter and even with so much thought I was unable to come up with an answer.My head feels fussy by now. I glanced at my side and saw Ryan taking his time to check the place out, I knew he must have his questions. Because it wasn’t every day you saw someone who knew a person in the Blue Residential Area. This neighborhood was built for the rich and the elites and only those with big money and well known in the country were allowed to live here. “Are you sure this is the right place, Gwen?” Ryan finally asked after looking at the place over and over again. I hummed and said, “This is it.” He looked skeptical as he took the pl

Gwen. We stepped into the living room and in no time Mom called out my sisters. “Jade, Nina come see who we have here!” Mother called out excitedly as I let my eyes stay on the stairs because I knew that in no time the girls would be running downstairs to come to see what Mother was talking about. I have two sisters, Jade and Nina. Jade was the youngest of the three of us and Nina was the second child after me. Jade is thirteen this year while Nina is twenty-one, they were both cute little girls I loved playing with when I was still with them. But now I wonder if they would even come near me if they saw me. Ryan came to my side and held my hand in his as a sign of him comforting me. I smiled appreciatively at him. He just knew what I was thinking at the right time and now I was scared. I don’t know how my sisters were going to react if they saw me. “Don’t worry, it’s going to be fine,” Ryan whispers in my ear and I nod. It’s going to be fine. For someone who didn’t know what was

Gwen. There was this feeling in your chest when you accepted by the family you thought wouldn’t be by your side. There is an overwhelming feeling that surrounds you when they welcome you back into their lives and that’s exactly what I’m feeling right now. Mom was going ballistic about Jasmine, and the concern in her voice was genuine. You can hear how hard she’s trying to keep herself from crying. She was sad that she wasn’t in my life when Jasmine was born, she felt sad and angry at herself that she wasn’t there for me when I was going through this. Honestly, I don’t blame her at all. I was the one who decided to leave, dad gave me an option and I picked leaving over being with my family. “What do you want to do right now?” She asked after she was done fuming. I sighed, “I want to take him to court mom, that’s why I brought Ryan with me.” I answered. She nodded agreeing with my suggestion. “Yes, I think that is a good idea.” She kept quiet for a while before looking at me. “

Gwen. Once I was done telling them all that truly happened, I brought my eyes down so I wouldn’t see the disappointment and hurt on my family’s faces. Jade did a surprising thing by pulling me into a hug and I really appreciated that. “He did all of that to you Gwen and you still decided to stay with him?” Mom asked. Dad hasn’t spoken any word since I stopped talking and that makes me wonder what he was thinking about. He probably wasn’t thinking of dealing with Henry right?“Say something, Gwen, tell me why you still decide to stay with him after seeing how he acts. That doesn’t define marriage.” Mom insisted. “I love him Mother and as shameless as this may sound, I still do. I…I thought he was going to change after Jasmine was born, I thought he would spend more time with us but I was wrong.” I was so damn wrong. Henry wasn’t going to change, his mind had been set on Emily and that is who he was going to go for not me. “He shouldn’t have done that.” Finally, Dad said something
