Brady begged Ava to give them another chance, hoping to fix things between them. But Ava, still struggling with everything that had happened, knew she had to focus on herself. She told Brady that no matter how much she loved him, something always got in their way. With a heavy heart, she ended their relationship, leaving Brady standing outside in the cold, all alone.
Kristen’s ultimatum to EJ
