HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 604

Chapter 604

“Yes. I’ve already asked Richard to strengthen her legal status-separate from Selena administratively. It’s a bit complicated since Eli is still a minor.”

“But the most important thing,” Althea added softly, “is that Eli remains under our supervision.”

“You’re right.” Daven pressed a gentle kiss to the side of her head. “We talked about Eli’s school before, didn’t we?”

“Yes.” Althea remembered their conversation from a few days earlier, when Daven had first mentioned finding a new school for Eli.

“That school is still the best option,” Daven said.

Althea studied him. “You’ve checked everything?”

“Of course.” His tone was calm but certain. “The environment is good. Their monitoring system is strict. She’ll be able to focus on studying without attracting unnecessary attention. And… Selena doesn’t know about this school.”

He paused briefly.

“Unlike Saint Loisse. She knew Eli was studying there. Who knows what Selena might try to do.”

Althea drew in a quiet breath.

She had already told Eli that the girl didn’t need to feel burdened about staying at the Miller house. Giving her a new routine might help Eli feel like her life had direction again.

“Do you think she’ll be ready for all of this?” Althea asked softly.

“Not immediately,” Daven replied honestly.

Althea smiled faintly at his answer.

“But I think she’ll try,” he continued. “Didn’t you notice the determination in her eyes when she talked about a new school that would actually nurture her talents?”

Althea looked at him for a few seconds.

“You’re right.”

Daven straightened slightly. “So… what would my wife like to eat this morning? I’ll order room service.”

He stepped over to the small table beside the bed. “I don’t want you skipping breakfast. We’ll just eat here in the room. Do you mind?”

Althea shook her head with a bright smile. “Not at all. Whatever you choose, I’ll eat it. I don’t think I’m picky with food during this pregnancy.”

Daven chuckled softly.

While her husband spoke to the hotel’s room service, Althea found herself thinking about several things.

Including one idea.

“Daven,” she called once he seemed to have finished ordering their breakfast.

“Yes, darling?” His attention returned to her immediately.
