Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 264

Like I’ve been told multiple times, you aren’t my family, so he wasn’t my father. Despite the fact that that man treated me like a damn abomination, I would never wish him harm, and besides, he should have had them Investigated before entering into a contract with them.”

“So you’re saying it’s his own fault he’s dead?” Travis asks between clenched teeth.

I shrug. “What the hell did you expect? You don’t betray a criminal organization and expect to walk away

happily.”

“I can’t believe you would say that,” Mother whispers, fighting back tears.

I’m surprised at the words coming out of my mouth. This isn’t really like me. It’s like someone else total control of my body. I couldn’t stop the venomous words that were pouring out of my mouth.

Emma stands up in a fluff of anger, throwing her hands in the air. “I told you. I tried warning you. She’s still

a fucking bitch, even with her memories gone.”

“Emma” Rowan growls, standing up. His face was contorted in pure

Before any of us can do anything, we are all surprised when we see a fast movement before Emma is shoved back. She falls on the couch, luckily. Though I wouldn’t have shed a tear if she fell on the floor.

“Don’t you ever talk to my mom like that again.” Noah screams at her, his fist firmly on his side. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

This startles Iris, and I try to soothe her before she can burst out crying.

Noah looked ready to commit murder.

The way he looked at her with so much hate let me know that there was something more to this. It wasn’t

just because Emma was rude to me.

“Noah…” mother tries to say something, but Noah cuts her off.

“No!” Noah shouts angrily. “You just sat there as your daughter disrespected my mom.”

“Ava wasn’t nice to her either,” Travis tries to justify.

What they did to me wasn’t okay, but this was my battle. Not his. I would never drag him into whatever was wrong between them and me. He loved Mother and Travis. I would never get in the way of that.

“You don’t mean that, Noah,” Mother says with a teary frown.

“Yes, I do,” he growls. “No one, and I mean no one, hurts my mom. You get that?”

I didn’t know whether to be proud of him or scared of his forceful nature. I just hope that one day it won’t

be a problem.

They all nod. For Mother and Travis, it’s because they would do anything for Noah, but for Emma, it’s

because she didn’t have a choice.

Her eyes kept swinging to Rowan, meaning she was agreeing because of him. I don’t know how to feel
