After The Divorce: Ex-husband's Regret Chapter 158
Epilogue Three Years Later Ava and Grace have decided to move back to the country. The morning sun poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Taylor Holdings, washing the executive office in warm light. Ava stood beside the glass wall with a cup of coffee cradled between her palms, watching the city wake beneath her. Cars crawled through the streets below while employees streamed into nearby office buildings, each carrying the quiet determination of another workday. Three years, the number still surprised her. There had been a time when waking up without pain had seemed impossible. Every memory had carried sharp edges; every familiar place had reminded her of everything she had lost. Now the ache had softened into something she could carry. It had become part of her story instead of controlling it. A gentle knock sounded at the door. "Come in." Mr. Martin stepped inside, holding a neatly organized folder. "I thought I would find you standing here." Ava smile

Three months had slipped by with a quietness that neither healed every wound nor erased the past. Time had simply done what it always did. It had carried everyone forward, whether they were ready or not. Matthew sat across from his therapist, his fingers loosely wrapped around a paper cup of untouched coffee. The office was warm, lined with bookshelves and large windows that overlooked the city. A fountain outside sent a gentle ripple through the silence between them. Dr. Harris closed the notebook on his lap. "You have been coming here every week without missing a single appointment." Matthew nodded. "I know." "You rarely speak about getting Ava back anymore." Matthew lowered his eyes briefly before lifting them again. "That is because I finally understand something." "What is that?" "I spent a long time believing that apologizing should erase what I did." Dr. Harris remained quiet. Matthew continued. "It doesn't." "No, it doesn't." "I cannot expect one apology to un

Matthew's hand fell slowly to his side after Ava lifted the baby from his arms. He had held on for a heartbeat longer than necessary, not because he wanted to stop her, but because letting go felt painfully symbolic. First, his son, then, in a few hours, Ava herself. She shifted the baby against her shoulder until he settled comfortably, his small face tucked into the curve of her neck. "I need you to understand something before I leave," she repeated quietly. Matthew nodded. "I am listening." Ava held his gaze for a long moment. She had rehearsed this conversation countless times, yet now that it stood between them, the words seemed far heavier than she remembered. "When I came back after your accident, everyone assumed I had returned because I wanted our marriage again." She shook her head gently. "That was never why I came." Matthew did not speak. "I came because you were lying in a hospital bed with no memory of who you were. Your parents were overwhelmed. Clar

Morning arrived quietly. The apartment had not changed overnight, yet everything inside it carried the unmistakable weight of departure. A suitcase stood beside the front door, neatly zipped. Grace had packed before dawn, moving through the house with the quiet efficiency of someone who had always known this day would come. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee drifted from the kitchen, mingling with the scent of baby lotion that lingered wherever Ava's son had been carried. Ava stood by the nursery window, gently rocking her baby against her shoulder. The little boy yawned, his tiny fingers curling around a strand of her hair before relaxing again. She kissed his forehead. "We are going on a long journey today," she whispered. "I hope one day you understand why your mother had to make this choice." A soft knock sounded against the open door. Grace leaned against the frame with a fond smile. "You have not changed out of your pajamas." Ava laughed under her breath. "I

Ava looked across the living room. Sophie stood quietly beside the sofa, the envelope still clutched in her hand, her eyes lowered as though she were afraid of hearing disappointment on the other end of the call. "She wants to speak with you," Ava said softly, holding out the phone. Sophie hesitated before accepting it. "Hello... Mrs. Taylor." There was a brief silence. When Mrs. Taylor finally spoke, her voice carried none of the resentment Sophie had expected. "My dear, how are you feeling?" Sophie's throat tightened. "I have been better." "I imagine you have." A tear escaped before Sophie could stop it. "I am sorry." Mrs. Taylor sighed gently. "I know." "I hurt your son." "You did." "I ruined his marriage." "You played a part in it." Sophie's breathing became uneven. "I do not know whether I deserve anyone's kindness anymore." Mrs. Taylor was quiet for a moment before answering. "My child, every one of us sitting in that house has made mistakes. Some mistakes

Ava remained rooted to the spot long after Sophie finished speaking. The words settled over the living room like the last light before nightfall, quiet yet impossible to ignore. Sophie stood a few feet away, her hands clasped together as though she needed something to stop them from trembling. Her face was pale from exhaustion, and grief had hollowed her eyes in a way Ava had never seen before. For months, she had imagined this moment differently. She had imagined anger. She had imagined demanding answers. She had imagined closing every door Sophie tried to reopen. Instead, all she could see was her younger sister standing before her with nothing left to defend. Ava crossed the distance between them. Without saying a word, she wrapped her arms around Sophie. The embrace caught Sophie completely off guard. For a heartbeat, her arms remained frozen at her sides. Then they lifted slowly, uncertainly, before tightening around Ava's back. Neither of them spoke. The silence betwee

Matthew said nothing. But the surprise in his eyes lingered. It wasn’t outrage. It wasn’t anger. It was something quieter. Something unsettled. Like she’d shifted a piece on a board he hadn’t realized they were playing on. Ava didn’t mind. She let him look. Let him wonder. He lowered his gaze t

Matthew’s hand had already reached the door. The cool metal handle pressed into his palm as he twisted it slightly. The hallway outside lay quiet, the muted hotel lights slipping through the small gap as the door opened a fraction. “I should go,” he said, his voice low. Behind him, the bed shif

Ava didn’t drive far after dropping Daniel off. The city stretched ahead of her in slow afternoon motion—traffic lights blinking lazily between green and amber, pedestrians weaving through sidewalks, vendors shouting from roadside stalls. Ordinary sounds. Familiar rhythms. She turned into a quiet
