He Wanted an Heir, So I Gave Him Ashes Chapter 32

In a daze, Rhett seemed to see the Ellie of the past, running toward him with a smile.

“You’re back? The kitchen made your favorite grilled ribs. I’ve been waiting for you.”

“Why aren’t you coming in?”

Rhett instinctively called her name.

“Ellie.”

The moment the sound left his lips, the vision vanished.

Only the dim lights of the hall and the old butler’s questioning gaze remained.

“Sir, are you missing Mrs. Walker?”

Rhett didn’t answer.

Of course he missed her.

But now, even saying her name felt like a privilege he no longer had.

The old butler paused before saying, “Perhaps she still remembers your past affection.”

Rhett smiled bitterly.

Would she?

It was because she had remembered their past that she had given him a second chance.

And he had destroyed it.

Just then, Beau came out of his room.

He had thought it might be Daisy returning. When he saw it was Rhett, his eyes dimmed.

Rhett looked at the child and found it hard to feel any affection.

He instructed the butler coldly, “Send him to military school tomorrow.”

Then he turned and left.
