Love In Between

CHAPTER 41

Ava felt her anger and frustration melting away as she was enveloped in his embrace. She couldn’t deny the way his arms felt around her, and she found herself leaning into him. She felt her struggles losing and her anger slowly dissipating.

Bruce, I appreciate the apology, but I need some space,” she said, looking him in the eyes. “I can’t just forget what happened between us, so don’t ever think you can waltz your way back into my life ever again, it’s already over between us.”

Bruce nodded, understanding her need for space. “I understand, Ava. I’ll give you all the space you need. But please know that I’m here for you, whenever you’re ready to talk.”

Ava felt a wave of emotions as he spoke. She knew that he meant well, but she wasn’t sure if she could ever trust him again.

“Stay away from me” she warned him sternly.

As Bruce saw her turn away, he couldn’t shake off the feeling that he had made a huge mistake. He realized that he still loved Ava and that he wanted to be a part of her life and the life of their child. He stopped in his tracks and turned around, making his way back to the elevator.

He stepped back in and saw Ava standing there, her expression a mix of emotions. Without hesitation, he pulled her into his arms once again, holding her tight.

“Ava, please, I know I messed up, but I can’t stand the thought of not being in my daughter’s life,” he said, his voice filled with emotion. “I beg you, give me another chance. Let me prove to you that I can be the father and the partner that you and our child deserve.”

Ava could feel his heart beating fast as he held her and she couldn’t deny the feelings she had for him. She knew that she still loved him but it was too late. She also knew that she had to think about what was best for her and her child.

“Bruce, I need time to think about this,” Ava lied, gently pulling out of his embrace. “I can’t just forgive and forget everything that has happened.”

Bruce nodded, understanding that it was going to take time and effort to earn back her trust.

As Bruce stood there watching her, he felt a sense of resolve wash over him. He realized that he couldn’t continue living his life according to his parents’ wishes. He had to make a stand for what he truly wanted, and that meant breaking off his engagement with Nora.

He knew it would be difficult, but he was willing to do whatever it takes to be with Ava and their child. He turns around and goes back to the elevator and Ava.

“Ava, there’s something else I need to tell you,” He said with determination in his voice. “I’m breaking off my engagement with Nora. I can’t continue living my life according to my parents’ wishes. I want to be with you and our child.”

Ava looked at him with surprise, she couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

“Bruce, I appreciate your honesty and your willingness to make a stand for what you truly want,” Ava said, her voice filled with emotion. “But it’s not something that can be decided in a day.”

Bruce nodded, understanding that it was going to take time and effort to earn back her trust. He promised her that he would do whatever it takes to make things right, and that he would be there for her and their child.

As they continued to talk, Ava felt he was getting on her nerves and she had no other choice other than to tell him the truth. Bruce’s hopes of reconciliation were suddenly dashed when Ava revealed that she was seeing someone else.

“Wait, what? You’re seeing someone else?” Bruce asked, taken aback by the revelation.

Ava nodded, her expression stoic. “Yes, I am. I’ve moved on and I’m happy with the person I’m seeing now.”

Bruce felt a sense of shock and heartbreak wash over him. He couldn’t believe that she had moved on so quickly. He had been so sure that they still had a chance.

“Who is he? Can I at least meet him?” Bruce asked, trying to hold onto some shred of hope.

Ava shook her head. “I’m sorry, Bruce. That’s not something I’m comfortable with. I hope you can understand that.”

As the elevator doors opened, Ava took the opportunity to leave. Bruce stood there, watching as she walked away, feeling a mix of emotions. He was heartbroken that she had moved on but he also knew that he deserved it after everything he had done.

He knew that he would have to come to terms with the fact that Ava had moved on and that it was time for him to move on as well. He took a deep breath, and walked out of the building, ready to start a new chapter in his life.

As Ava walked away, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of anger towards Bruce. She turned around and faced him, her voice filled with frustration.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“You chose everything over me, Bruce! Everything! Your career, your family, your reputation. And now it’s too late. You had your chance and you blew it,” Ava yelled, her voice filled with emotion.

Bruce could see the hurt and anger in her eyes and he knew that he deserved it. He had made so many mistakes and he knew that it was going to take a lot to make things right.

“I know, Ava. I know. And I’m sorry. I was wrong and I regret it every day. I wish I could turn back time and do things differently,” Bruce said, his voice filled with remorse.

Ava shook her head, tears streaming down her face. “I can’t do this right now, Bruce. I’m sorry,” she said, before turning and walking away, leaving him standing there, heartbroken and alone.

Bruce knew that it was over, and that Ava had moved on. He felt a deep sense of regret and loss, knowing that he had lost the love of his life and the mother of his child. He took a deep breath and walked away, embarrassed.

Bruce was determined to find out who Ava was seeing. He knew that it was a long shot, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that there was still a chance for him to win her back. He thought about all the things he could do to find out who she was seeing, and decided to start by asking around.
