Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 536

Molly is one of my bridesmaids, and so are Ava, Connie, Letty, Harper and Kinley. They have been my girls for the past four years since my accident. Of course, I could never replace Molly, she’s my best friend, but I am grateful that I have them.

Plus, yesterday Molly told me that she’s thinking of moving here. I was so excited. I love her, but we admitted that it was difficult doing the whole long-distance friendship. I am honestly over the moon that she’ll be around.

The music slows down, and Gunner approaches, breaking all other conversation.

“Can I have this dance, Mom?”

There’s a series of aaws, and I swear my heart melts right on the spot.

“Of course, my handsome boy,” I answer before taking his hand.

Gunner is fourteen, now a teenager. Can you believe that? He’s as tall as I am, and I’m sure in a few years he’ll be taller than I am. I don’t mind though. He’ll always be my baby boy.

Calvin and I put him in therapy the moment I got discharged. We did a joint session in some and talked about our relationship and about the day of the accident. I believe being able to lay it all out during those sessions brought us closer.

“I love seeing you this happy,” Gunner murmurs, his eyes searing my soul in ways I can’t even understand.

“I was happy, sweet boy.”

“True, but not this happy. This kind of happiness suits you. It’s radiating off of you in waves. I’m happy that you found someone. I was worried about you.”

Tears begin filling my eyes. His words spread warmth throughout my entire body.

“Oh no, you don’t. Please don’t cry… Aunt Ava will seriously kill me if I ruin your makeup.”
