Chapter 366
Chapter 0366 Rowan.
Fuck, | am a nervous wreck. My heart was beating erratically, and | could barely contain the shaking in my hands. The last time we did this, we were both young, and neither of us wanted it.
She'd been trying to escape from me with my baby, and I’d been angry at the whole universe for the fact that | had to marry a girl | hated. Parts of me still wonder what would have happened if Ava had managed to run away. Of course | would have been fucking angry that she ran away and denied me the chance at knowing my baby, but would we still have found our way back to each other?
| didn’t see it before, but | truly, fucking believe that Ava is my soulmate. It took a while to see that, to realize that, but better late than never.
“Will you fucking come down?” Gabe growls beside me.
Taking a deep breath, | try to calm myself down, but nothing happens.
| guess | won't be able to calm down until | see her walking down the aisle.
“‘lcan't”
“Well, you better; you’re making me nervous, and I’m not the one getting married.”
We were standing at the front, waiting for Ava to arrive. Neither she nor her bridesmaid had arrived yet.
Despite me wanting the most lavish wedding money could buy, Ava didn’t. | wanted the whole damn world to know that she was mine.
That she’d chosen me. That she’d given me a second chance. Nobody was ever going to be able to take her away from me.
Ava, wanted something simple and intimate. That is one thing that still surprises me about her. She is one of the richest women in the city, yet she’s so simple and down to earth. She didn’t want any paparazzi at our wedding, or strangers. Just friends and family.
“| saw mom’s wedding dress, it’s beautiful, and she looked beautiful in it.” Noah says it on my other side. “Wait and see, you won't be able to take your eyes off her.”
You fucking guessed it. My groom’s men were Gabe and Noah. | would have chosen Travis, my oldest friend, but our friendship has been the same since everything went down between me and Emma. Ava has also yet to forgive him, so there is that.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“| can’t wait to see her.” | smiled at my son, who was bouncing in excitement. He was our biggest champion, always trying his best to push us together when Ava and | divorced. He never gave up on us. | guess he saw something between us that we didn’t until it was almost too late.
| turn and stare into the crowd. My parents were seated at the front. The talk between my mom and Ava had somehow brought them a bit closer. They’ll never be best friends, but there’s no longer bad blood between them.
Nora and Theo weren’t here, but that’s understandable. They're with Ava and her bride’s maid. Travis, Kate, and Emma were also present. Only a few of the kids Ava has helped were present here. The rest would join us at the reception. Her assistant and a few of our colleagues were also present. Also present are Calvin and Gunner.
“What if she doesn’t come?” | whisper to my brother as a different kind of panic takes over.
“You're kidding me, right?” He gives me a look that suggests he finds me to be the dumbest human being in existence. | ignore that.
“Maybe she decided I’m not good enough for her, which, by the way, I’m not. | wouldn't blame her if she decides she’s better off without me in her life.”
Gabe discretely shakes me. “Get a fucking hold of yourself!”
