Chasing His Ex-Wife: My Ex-Husband Regret

Laura's Point of ViewI'm stuck at the end of the banquet hall, poking at the ice in my drink. It's better than listening to the laughter and easy conversation between my husband and his ex-girlfriend.But their voices are stuck in my head no matter how hard I try.Faith Miller, my husband's childhood sweetheart, happily remarks. "I've heard much about the Jackson Group in the past few months. How's it going?"Kairo Jackson, my husband, smiles and gulps the glass of wine in his hand. "There have been some minor issues, but overall, we're thriving.""I always knew you were capable of doing incredible things. But I'm surprised you're a natural-born leader," Faith compliments. "I mean, I thought you were just a nerdy student.""Thank you, Faith. You're doing great yourself," Kairo replies. "And just so you know, there are many things you still don't know about me."I catch a quick wink from Kairo to Faith, and my blood starts to boil. How could he flirt so shamelessly with his wife sitti

Laura's Point of ViewI clutch my belly with one hand while gripping the paper bag containing Kairo's lunch with the other.Stepping into the elevator, I press the button for his floor.

You don't understand how important this meeting is!" he snaps before hanging up.(End of Flashback)And that's how our conversation ended.I stare at my reflection in the elevator doors, noticing the dark circles under my eyes.

"Maybe you're just hurt and making a quick decision.""There's no way I'm rushing this after everything I've been through, Jam.And..." I place my hand on my stomach and smile. "If I stay, I might lose myself and my twins. They're my reason to keep on going."Jamaica sits on the bed and holds my hand, smiling at me. "Well, if that's what you want, you know I'll always support you.""Thank you, Jam. For not leaving me," I reply tearfully and hug her. As we hug, we both glance at the side table. My phone rings.Unknown number calling...Even though I deleted the number from my contacts, I still know who it is.Without hesitation, I answer, "What do you want, Kairo?""Stop it already. Aren't you tired of this? You're just wasting my time acting like a baby," Kairo says, sounding frustrated."A waste of time for you, maybe, but not for me!" I snap back. "If you don't want to waste your time, then
