Chapter 0203
I get to my home thirty minutes later. The cold air had done nothing to cool my frayed
nerves. I wanted to storm to Ava’s place and claim her. I wanted to tell her she can’t go
out with this Calvin guy. I wanted to declare my love for her.
“Mr. Woods, there is someone here to see you,” my butler informs me the moment I step
into my
house.
“Who is it?” I ask.
Before he can answer, her voice interrupts us. I swear as I turn around to face her. Fuck! I
didn’t have the
time or patience to deal with her.
“How can I help you, Emma?” I feel it as Rodgers, my butler, leaves,
I study her features. She was beautiful, yes, but her beauty had deemed in my eyes. I

the scorching feelings I used to have for her, but there was nothing. The place that once
housed them
was completely empty.
“How are you, Ro?” she asks instead of answering my question.
I didn’t want to be rude, but I didn’t have time for her.
Tell me why you’re here, Emma. I have a lot of things on my plate.
She sighs. Her face losing its color. “I’m here because of us. I want us to talk about our
relationship.”
My face completely shouts down. I feel coldness radiating from me. She flinches, but I
don’t give a shit.
“What relationship? There is no ‘us‘ Emma. Don’t you understand that?” I ask her in a hard
tone, my hands fisted at my side.
Damn it. I wanted her to leave. Doesn’t she understand that being near her irritates me?
That things have changed and it’s like I can’t stand being around her.
“That’s not true. I love you, and you love me. It’s always been that way. You can’t tell me
that things have changed. Is it because of Ava?” Tears were swimming in her eyes.
I didn’t love her, but I cared for her. I didn’t want to hurt, but if it means that’s the only
way she’ll understand that we’re done, then so be it.
“Yes, but I also came to realize that I don’t love you. I may have in the past, but not
anymore. You’re wasting your time on me. You should be looking for someone who’ll give
you the love I can’t.”
The tears she was holding back begin to fall. Pain flashed in her features. I wanted to E
“You love her, don’t you?” she asks in a broken voice.
Her pain tugs at the parts of me that used to love her. I stamp them down. Not allowing
them to win.

you “Yes, I know it’s not what you want to hear, but yes I love her” I tell her as gently as I
can. “Now that know the truth, I’m also letting you know that I’m going to pursue her and I
don’t want you standing in my
way”
“She’ll never give you a chance. She’ll never forgive you.” Her voice is bitter and
wounded.
I run my hand through my hair in frustration. “That may be the case, but it still won’t stop
me from trying to
win back her love.”
“And I won’t stop trying to win back yours. I lost you once, Rowan, and I’m not going to
lose you again. I
won’t accept defeat that easily,” she says determinedly.
Before I can tell that she’s wasting her time, she flounces past me and leaves.
I head upstairs while pushing the encounter with Emma to the back of my mind. Nothing
she said
mattered. Ava is my main focus now.
It was time for me to win back my ex–wife.
