Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M
Chapter 228

Chapter 0228

"What's up, Ava?"

We rarely talk. Most of the time, it's just a message here and there. All of them consist of him letting me know he has sent a package and me thanking him for it.

I know it's dangerous, but he's the only one I can think of to help me right now. I won't lie. The second note has totally scared the crap out of me.

"I need your help, Reaper," I simply state. There was no need for small talk. Plus, from what I've learned

about him, he doesn't like them.

It took some time before I finally had the courage to call him. I've been debating whether I should go to the police or him. Finally, reason won over. The last time I was in danger, the police weren't able to help. Reaper knew what was happening the whole time. 1

I reasoned that maybe he would be able to help me catch whoever was after me.

"Okay, what is it?" he asks curiously. Probably because I've never asked him for anything.

"Someone seems to be after."

"Oh, is it about the notes you've been getting?"

I am shocked, but not at the same time. See? This is why I thought he would be the best person to help.

1. me. He was a step ahead of me 1

"Yes," I answer. "Do you know who's behind it, and how do you even know about them?"

I crossed my fingers, hoping that he knew. It would be even better if he was in the process of taking care of the problem for me. After all, didn't he promise me his protection?

"I have my sources... I don't know who's behind them, but my source tells me that the person who leaves. them usually wears a mask and a long black coat. From what he gathered, he thinks it's a woman."

I try to think about which woman would want to harm me, but I come up short. This past few months, I've offended a lot of people, with Emma being the most recent. It was just hard to tell who could hold such a Why didn't he stop whoever the person is?" I ask.

I mean, it's reasonable. If you see a strange person leaving such notes, you stop them.

"He didn't think much of it until the second note. That's when he started getting suspicious."

I can't really blame him. I didn't think too much into it until the second note, too.

"What do the notes contain?"

"Give me a second. Let me send you a picture."

I snap a picture of them side by side and then send it to him. He's quiet while he's studying them. I can't help but think of how I could get into trouble if the police ever found out.

Reaper

was s

still in hiding, and the police were still on his case. I took a risk with him. A risk that could put me in prison for being his accomplice and hiding his whereabouts.

In my defense, I don't really know where he's hiding, and we rarely communicate, but I don't think that would be enough to convince the jury of my innocence. "Looks like whoever it is has a grudge and wants to hurt you," he finally says.

"Gee thanks Sherlock" I tell him sarcastically. "I've already gathered that....you know, with the whole say

goodbye to your loved ones thing"

I didn't want to be snappy, but I was on edge. It's scary to know someone is planning my death. It's event

scarier because I'm pregnant. If I die, my baby dies, too. I can't have that.

"There's not much I can gather except that," he sighs. "Who have you offended in recent months? Who do

you think could be angry enough to want revenge? Let's start there."

"I honestly don't know, Reaper. You seem to know everything that goes on around me, so you know that I've made a lot of people angry these past few months." "Okay then. Just send me a list of those you've crossed, and I'll see what I can do. Okay?" he asks.

I nod my head before realizing he can't see me. "Okay"
