Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 143

Chapter 0143 

“Never in my life have I seen a person’s heart melt so fast when it comes to my dog. Most people usually find him annoying as hell” the warm voice makes me whip my head so fast, I almost break it in the 

process. 

Holy smokes. The man was hot this close up. Black hair, green eyes, high cheekbones, a chiselled jaw line, lips that begged to be kissed and a body that enticed you to do dirty things. He was freaking hot and 

he knew it. 

I know what you’re thinking. ‘Slow down Ava, you got fooled once by great looks, don’t make the same 

mistake again‘. 

I wasn’t. I swore off love and men, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t appreciate a fine specimen when I 

see one. I’m not blind. 

“Have we met before?” The words tumble out of my mouth before I can stop them. “It’s just that you look 

familiar“. 

He stares for a while before answering. “Yes, we used to go to the same school, you were two years 

behind me“. 

I 

I try to remember him, but it still doesn’t ring much of a bell. Probably because I was so obsessed with 

Rowan that I didn’t see anyone else. 

“Calvin Garcia” he supplies when I still continue staring at him confused. 

The moment he mentions his name, it hits me. 

“Oh my goodness, you’re Nerdy Cal” for some weird reason, I shriek this. 

He groans at the name he used to go by when he was in school. He glares at me, but it doesn’t faze me at 

all. 

Wow, you had a big fucking glow up” I stare at him dumbfounded. 

The Cal I remember was skinny, with too wide glasses that kept slipping down his nose. He had braces 

and his face used to be covered in big red pimples. 

He was also a nerd, spent most of his time studying in the library while others his age were busy fucking 

in the janitor’s closet. 

To simply put it, he wasn’t someone you would look at twice. 

He looked good now. Really good. I am glad that everything worked out for him. He changed into someone any woman would die to have. He was now in the same category as Rowan. 

“Yeah, well, thanks” he says awkwardly. 

“I also remember you used to have a massive crush on Emma, how did that crush turn out for you?” I teased. I wasn’t trying to be mean or anything. 

When he wasn’t studying, just like all the other boys, he was busy following Emma around like a lost puppy. 

The only problem was that Emma had eyes for Rowan only. When they started dating, they were the it 

couple. 

Every boy except Gabe and Travis wanted to be in Rowan’s shows. Every girl wanted to be in Emma’s 

shoes. 

“And you loved Rowan, how did that turn out for you?” He fired back in irritation. 

“Touché” I murmur. 

The pain was still there, but I managed to push it away. 

I didn’t know Cal that way, but I thanked God on his behalf. Thanked him for looking after Cal, happy that he never got a chance with Emma. 

Emma’s love for Rowan would have destroyed him, just like Rowan’s love for Emma destroyed me. 

“Dad, can I watch TV?” The sweet voice pulls me from my bitter memories. 

I turn to find a cute boy standing behind Cal. He had the same captivating green eyes as his father. 

I 

“Hi, my name is Ava” I just couldn’t help myself. 

“Hello” he says shyly, and my heart immediately falls in love with him. 

“What’s your name?” I ask him gently. 

Gunner 

1 have a son about your age, his name is Noah. How about you come over and meet him when he gets out of school? He’ll be excited to have a new friend.” I pause before adding. “If it’s okay with your dad,
