Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 0533

Three years later.

Emma.

*Seriously, Emma, when are you going to start dating?" Ava asks, sitting down next to me.

I look out at the backyard, and I can't help the smile that forms on my lips. Today is Travis and Letty's son's birthday. James, named after our dad, is turning one today.

Letty and Travis got married about two years ago. Travis proposed immediately. I woke up after that accident that almost robbed me of my life. You might be wondering what happened to the driver. Well, he is currently serving a five-year sentence for reckless driving. I do hope he learned his lesson.

Back to Travis and Letty. I guess seeing me in the hospital made him realize just how short life is. He proposed, and Letty said yes. They got married in a beautiful spring wedding.

As a result of being friends with Ava, I was brought into the fold. Connie and Reaper got married in a small intimate wedding with close friends and family. They welcomed their daughter, Haven, four months later. Connie is now currently pregnant with their second child. Another girl.

Harper and Gabriel are expecting too. This will be their third child. Harper told us that Gabriel was against the idea of having another baby after the pain he witnessed Harp going through, even though at first he was at the forefront of them having a whole basketball team of kids. They argued and fought about it, but eventually Harper won. She couldn't have been happier.

Now, Ava and Rowan. They are still growing strong. They have three children so far, but something tells me that it won't stay that way for long. You know about Noah and Iris, but I bet you didn't know that three years ago they welcomed another baby girl. They named her Emery.

*Emma...
