HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 1095

Several players who had still been talking to one another fell silent. The other conversations around the edge of the court gradually died down, as if everyone was beginning to realize that something more serious was happening.

Josh’s family, who were not far away, also began paying attention. Althea and Grace exchanged glances, while Chris and Naomi also turned their attention toward Eli and Natalie.

David stood without saying anything, his gaze fixed on Eli.

Meanwhile, Natalie looked at the girl with an expression that appeared hurt.

“I don’t understand why you always misunderstand me,” she said softly. “I just want to be nice.”

Eli almost laughed out of frustration. “Be nice?”

She stared intently at Natalie.

“If that’s how you act when you’re being nice, I don’t want to know what you’re like when you’re actually against me.”

Several people around them began whispering. Some exchanged glances, while others simply remained silent and watched.

Natalie lowered her head slightly.

She did not respond with anger. Instead, she made herself look even smaller, as if Eli’s words had truly hurt her.

And that made several people begin looking at Eli differently.

Eli noticed it. She knew exactly what Natalie was doing. The woman always knew how to make herself look like the one who had been hurt without having to say too much.

But this time, Eli had no intention of backing down. She was already too tired to keep letting herself be cornered.

Meanwhile, David was still standing silently. He did not know whom to look at.

The Raven victory that should have been the happiest moment for him now felt like something far more complicated. The argument before him made his mind return to everything he had heard about Eli all this time.

His gaze fell back on the girl.

For the first time, doubt arose within him. Was everything he had believed about Eli all this time really true? But before he could say anything, Josh stepped forward.

With one hand still wrapped in a bandage, he stood beside Eli. His expression was calm, but his gaze was far more serious than before.

“Eli.”
