Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 72

Dead love

+15 BONUS

Today we were having our monthly get together. The Woods and the Sharps have made this a

tradition since I was about five years old.

Our families have always been close. Mainly because our mother’s have been best of friends since

they were little girls.

It made logical sense that their children would end up being best friends too and that both

families would be close.

“Dad, why are you driving so slow? You’re going to make us miss grandpa’s barbecue stake” Noah

complains, his brows pulled together in irritation.

If it wasn’t for Noah, I wouldn’t even have gone. I used to love them. Especially when I knew that

Ava wasn’t going to be around. When I knew that she wasn’t invited.

I used to think it was the only place I could escape her. That being in a room where everyone

except Noah hated her guts was the best place to be.

Now though, it doesn’t fucking feel like that anymore. Instead I hate myself and the rest for the

pain we have put her through.

“I’m going as fast as I can“I answer him.

“No, you’re not. You’re driving slower than a ninety year old grandma!” He huffs in annoyance.

Did I just get fried by an eight year old boy? I shake my head and chuckle before increasing the

speed just a little bit.

The moment silence reigns in the car, my mind immediately goes to Ava.

She looked fucking radiant when she opened the door for me.

To me she looked like a damn fertility goddess in a white flowing dress, long curled thick hair, her

small baby bump and her beautiful flawless skin.

I was shocked by my reaction when I wanted nothing more than to take her in my arms and lock

ourselves in her bedroom for hours.

This reaction to her is something that has never happened before and it took me by surprise.
