All Chapters of MY EX-HUSBAND REGRET : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Murder Taint.CLARAI was in trouble.Shock sneaked in like a thief in the night and I was rooted to a spot, trying to understand how this happened, why it happened, and how to take care of it. Lucy was standing directly before her mother and I was still at the top of the stairs, trying to comprehend what just happened.She wasn't moving! She didn't bulge! "Oh my god!" I opened my eyes yet it seemed like there was a veil cast over my eyes. Like I wasn't seeing clearly even though it played out right before me. My body was stiff."What did you do to her!?" Lucy screeched, falling to the floor and grabbing her mother who was unresponsive. "What did you do, Rosaline!?" She continued to yell and I didn't dare take umbrage.I couldn't feel anything was the case. The shock was getting to me, wounding into my chest and stifling my heart. I turned blue, my breathing slow and labored. She wasn't responding! Lucy must think this cavalier attitude was on purpose, or I didn't deign to say a wo

Whose Phone?MIKE Maybe I didn't see right. Or maybe my brain denied it.I ran to the tub in the nook of time and reached into it to grab the phone. Lucy took that opportunity to slip past me, and she ran out the door while I picked up the drowning phone and rubbed it against my chest to lessen its wetness. It didn't seem like that was happening anytime soon, it was dripping at both ends.How dare she? I looked up ahead, though there was nothing in sight. "Lucy ! I'm going to get you!" I yelled, staring up ahead. "I'm going to get you!"I didn't know why I said that, like it made the problem less of a problem. I was screwed, and that was it. Immediately, I started looking for a means to dry it off, knowing fully well that Clara needed this to get out of this problem. I didn't know what to do. It had been a while since I had faced this level of anxiety.Lucy , as expected, was nowhere in sight. It was better that way, or I might have her crucified. That urge wasn't one that I could c

Stuck In The Middle.CLARAI was out of it, whatever trouble was lurking in the shadows for me. I was out of it. It appeared like I had it all under control, and I forced a smile to assure everyone that I knew what I was doing, like I wasn't a confused woman smeared with an accusation of murder.There was no greater torture. I owed Mike everything, right now. He was the reason I was walking out of here with handcuffs, and I couldn't possibly ask him for any more favors or help. He already looked exhausted, no doubt. Mike has had enough of me these past few days, and I didn't want to put him in a spot.They rejoiced, obviously happy that I was back and it was all cleaned out, though some investigations were still ongoing, but the worst was over, and we'd survive. I'd survive. Beverly and Mike talked as we walked out while Rodney stuck by me. I could feel his eyes on me as we walked, like he was trying to pick up on any inconsistencies."I can feel you looking at me, you know?" I coc

Sex In The Air.MIKE Clara pushed past me and walked to the front. It could either be the beginning of a disaster or the start of something beautiful, which I wanted.She walked in front, I couldn't help but admire the outline of her perfect body in the dress she was wearing. The sexual tension during the car ride could be cut with a butter knife. She opened the door and we both walked in and then I locked it behind us, never daring to say a word.Clara sighed tiredly. "Well, here we are. The humble abode for the next couple of hours. Uh, I'll just go freshen up and..." Her voice trailed as she scanned the room.There was one bed and one bathroom. It was so small and I knew she hated that. "Yeah..." I drawled. "Yeah, uhh- you do that."I picked my words. She nodded and pointed toward the door and then walked in the direction. I could just let her walk by me.Or not. Please!"Clara, wait," I said calmly before grabbing her hand to stop her.She looked at me and smiled. Her smile soon

Dad?CLARAI dropped the call with Mike and started pacing around the room, my mind racing with thoughts and worries. How did this happen? Who leaked this information? And what did it even mean?As I paced, I noticed that my phone was blowing up with notifications. I had multiple missed calls and texts from unknown numbers.And then I saw it - a message from an unknown number offering me a large sum of money to reveal more information about Mike and our relationship. My heart sank. This was getting out of control. How could I have failed to protect my own daughter?Just then, Agatha, came into the living room with a glass of water. I was surprised because I hadn't asked for it, but I took it gratefully, flashing her a big smile. "Thank you."Agatha lingered around and I could see the question at the tip of her tongue. Definitely, she must have seen the news too. Not only did that happen, but Agatha had also seen me kiss him. There wasn't exactly too much to explain. It was very eas
