The Unexpected Heir Regret
Chapter twenty nine"I apologize for my ignorance; I had no knowledge of your situation. I erroneously assumed that you and your partner had ended things, and perhaps it was you who had broken the relationship off. It saddens me to see that many women have a tendency to discard good men. Please accept my sincerest apologies for any offense caused."His tone, infused with a mixture of disappointment and anger towards his ex-wife, underscored his remarks. However, he quickly shifted gears and attempted to persuade his friend."It's crucial not to let the actions of your ex-wife affect your perspective on others.
