Regretting You Colleen Hoover Summary Novels & Stories

The betrayal sat like a heavy weight in my chest, suffocating me. Caroline let out a slow, tired breath. When she spoke again, her voice wasn’t sharp or demanding—it was quiet. Almost… remorseful.

Cole went silent for a few minutes.

My thoughts are having difficulty moving on from you; I know you were unhappy about the presents, but I would not have sent them if I had known; please forgive me.

SLAP! “Fu***ng bastard! ” I screamed, my voice trembling with rage. A red handprint bloomed on his cheek, but he didn’t even flinch. Instead, he stood there, his eyes filled with desperate longing. “Can you come back?" he pleaded, his voice breaking. “Come back to what?" I shot back, my words like venom. “This is the path you chose, Cole! Don’t tell me you regret it now.” “Yes, I regret it! ” he blurted out, the raw emotion in his voice catching me off guard. “I never thought I’d feel this way, but I do. I regret everything. I regret driving you away.” I froze, momentarily stunned. This was Cole, proud, arrogant Cole.

One day you’ll realize what kind of mistake you’ve made.” I paused at the doorway and looked back, my jaw tight. “The only mistake I ever made was thinking I needed your approval.” And then I walked out. By the time I reached the back porch, the evening air felt like ice against my skin, but at least it was real. I sat on the steps, hands buried in my hair, breathing in the cold until the burn in my chest dulled. I was the man Coleen believed in. And that was enough.

He exhaled slowly and sank back into the couch. His elbows rested on his knees as he stared down at the floor.

"I can't stop you from leaving. I always thought this would happen. It's Ryan who wasn't meant to keep you." I rested against her shoulders in silence. The old woman had been the only shield I had in this house. With her around, Kate and Walker had kept their distance. Because of her, the place had somehow felt less cruel. And now, letting go meant leaving behind the one person here who had treated me as family. My voice was quiet. "I don't regret the divorce. I regret that I won't be here to care for you." Ruth studied me. "If he comes back to his senses and asks you to return, would you?"

"Aaron! I regret it! I really regret it! I regret not stopping my mom from asking you to pay for Christmas Eve dinner. I regret not stopping her when she stole the property deed. I regret not standing up for you when you needed me most! I regret not treating you well after marrying you, and I regret making you suffer so much!"
