Ex-Husband's Regret (Ava and Rowan) novel Chapter 478

As we chat, Ava’s eyes keep going back to Rowan. You can see the love that is there. Despite everything he put her through she still managed to give him another chance.

Rowan’s eyes, of course, keep drifting to his wife too. It’s like he simply can’t keep his eyes from her or his hand for that matter, given he keeps finding ways to touch her.

I know how cruel Rowan was to Ava in those three years of marriage to Gabriel. He treated her like she was nothing. Now though, she seems to be his whole world. His love for her openly shines. I never thought that he’d ever change towards her, but the evidence of his change and love is staring at me directly in the face.

“Something is bothering you,” Ava whispers, pulling me from my thoughts.

I turn to her, my eyes searching her face. “Have you truly forgiven Rowan? How did you do it? How did you let go of the past?”

I just didn’t get it and, if I am being honest, I am freaking scared of taking that step with Gabriel.

Her eyes shift to her husband, before the refocus back on me.

“I have forgiven him, and that’s the easy part. The hard part is letting go and forgetting. I won’t lie to you, Harper, it isn’t easy. There isn’t a magic potion that will make you forget what he did. Other days are harder than others, especially when those memories hit me and infiltrate my mind, making me question my decision to give him a chance.”
