Semua Bab My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret: Bab 241 - Bab 250

Chapter 242Riley Burke ~•~“I’m sorry I didn’t reach out to you throughout the day, I was occupied with some stuff.” Mason apologized as I answered the phone. It was already dark and we didn’t speak throughout the day. A part of me felt that he wasn’t being honest with me. He wasn’t busy with anything, he just wasn’t interested in speaking to me. Maybe he needed space. Or some time to think. “It’s okay.” I brushed off his concerns with a dismissal wave even if it wasn’t okay. I felt bad because he didn’t speak to me throughout the day when we clearly had a lot to talk about. “How are you doing? What did your parents say?” Mason asked with a hint of concern and curiosity in his voice. “I shouldn’t be going out with the enemy.” I held back a scoff as I told him. “Forget about me. I wanted to apologize for leaving you at the restaurant. I’m really sorry.” “I felt bad about it but I realized it wasn’t entirely your fault.” Mason’s words calmed my frazzled nerves. “At the end of th

Chapter 244Riley Burke ~•~I listened to Rowan’s advice and sent my father an email. It felt so weird as I drafted an apology email for my father. I mean, I could talk to him freely, but now, our relationship was strained. After I sent it, I went over to my mother’s room. “Riley, I haven’t seen you all day.” My mother said as I walked into her room. “How are you doing?” She asked with a hint of genuine concern in her voice. I was a bit confused. Wasn’t she also angry at me? I sat down on her bed while she sat in front of that vanity. “You didn’t want to see,” I replied, my voice tight. “I’m doing fine, how are you doing?”My mother turned around with a puzzled expression registered on her face. “What do you mean by that?” She asked, staring intently at me. “Nobody even cared if I was dead or alive in my room.” My mother laughed. “I just thought you needed space after everything that happened.” She replied, rubbing her hands together. “Or maybe you didn’t.” “Daddy doesn’t want

Chapter 245Riley Burke ~•~I was skeptical about going to the room at first, so I stood by the side and pulled out my phone from my bag. I wanted to call my friends, maybe they had an explanation for what was happening. Harper answered the call on the first ring. “Hey, I’ve been trying to reach you.” She said with a hint of urgency in her voice.My heart skipped a bit. “Why? What happened?” After Harper’s explanation, I realized what was happening. As soon as I left the house, my father sent some men to my dorm room. He wanted them to prevent me from getting into my room. He didn’t want me to have anywhere else to stay after I disrespected him. He wanted me to go back to the house. I couldn’t help but scoff. “Are the school authorities aware of this?” I asked Harper. “I have no idea. We decided to wait for you to arrive when we realized what was happening.” Harper replied. “Are you coming inside?” She asked with a hint of concern in her voice. “Yes.” I hung up the call and ke

Riley Burke ~•~Mason stayed with me throughout the whole period while I tried to figure out what I was going to do. I called my father and asked him to give me access to my bank accounts and dorm room, but he refused. He wanted me to go back home, but I wasn’t going to do that. I was upset. After everything, Mason offered to take me to his house, but I couldn’t accept his offer. Instead, I decided to go over to my Auntie Amanda’s house. “Are you sure you don’t want to come with me?” Mason asked for the umpteenth time as he walked me to my car. “You shouldn’t be worried about my parents, they don’t really care if I go out with you anymore.” I rolled my eyes. I wished my father felt the same way. “It’s fine,” I assured him. “My parents would be more upset if they found out I followed you home. I just have to find a way to fix this situation.” Mason let out a defeated sigh. “Fine, but if you need money for anything, don’t hesitate to call me.” He continued. I nodded. “Sure.” I

Chapter 250Riley Burke ~•~What was I thinking about lying to Amanda? Of course, my mother would call her to tell her about what was happening. I didn’t think anything through, I just did the first thing that came to my mind. I felt bad as I saw her disappointed look. I shouldn’t have lied to her. I didn’t even want to watch the movie anymore. I couldn’t look her in the face. I just wanted to sleep until the next day. Everyone thought I was missing but my father didn’t even bother calling me. I felt so terrible. Didn’t he love me anymore? I just wanted to cry myself to sleep. When I was done bathing, I dried my body with a clean towel and changed into the nightwear that Amanda had handed over to me earlier. I decided to sit for a while before heading to the living room. My mind raced with different thoughts as I sat down on the bed. Was there any possibility that my father would have an open mind about Mason? Was our argument ever going to end? Was Mason even worth all the
