Lost Me Gained Regret Read Online Novel

"Huh?"

I should have remembered that Gregory never beats around the bush. I tried to cover his mouth, but it was too late. "Babe, are you dropping hints?"

I glared at him, exchanged a few hurried words with Christine, and quickly dragged Gregory into the elevator.

Once we got home, Gregory raised an eyebrow with a mischievous grin, "In a hurry?"

It took me a moment to catch on.

Then, I poked him hard in the cheek, "Why did you have to say that?"

Gregory sounded genuinely puzzled, "Say what?"

I withdrew my hand, "The thing with Christine and Dailey. She is Mira's godmother, after all. You figure it out."

Gregory pulled me into his arms and kissed me softly, "Nope, I'm just here for the drama."

Before I could respond, he swept me off my feet.

"Besides, I've got more pressing matters at hand."

Gregory's urgency was palpable.

He was so eager that we ended up showering together.

But just as we were about to undress, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

"Mrs. Ferguson..."

Zoe's voice was cautious, "Um...Mira's awake. It's feeding time."

...

Zoe didn't want to interrupt us and even took the baby to her room to soothe her back to sleep.

Who would have thought she'd wake up just then?

I quickly wrapped myself in a bathrobe, tying it loosely, and hurried to the guest bedroom.

Zoe seemed embarrassed, "Actually, the baby's feeding schedule is quite consistent..."

Mira was indeed well-behaved, quietly waiting for me to feed her without making a fuss.

Such timing.

Gregory played with Mira, "She's the only one allowed to bully me."

I couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.

...

In the parking garage.

Christine didn't even glance at Dailey, heading straight for her car.

Lucius saw Dailey approach Christine and just turned around to leave.

They weren't tired, but he had been struggling to get a full eight hours of sleep lately.

No time to waste with them here.

Christine was about to unlock her car when she saw Gregory's car speed away and stopped.

Dailey had already made it to the passenger side but didn't open the door.

"Are we not leaving?"

Lately, Christine had been unable to figure Dailey out.

His words had been so harsh before, clearly indicating he didn't want to pursue anything with her.

Now, with his first love back, he definitely wouldn't want to take things further with her.

She had stepped back to just being friends, but he kept showing up.

During busy times, they had worked side by side, and he had always been there to offer warmth amidst the chaos.

Back then, she hadn't had the heart to focus on this, and later felt it unnecessary to bring up.

Things cooled off, and knowing Dailey's personality, he wasn't one to chase after anyone.

It was always the other way around.

"Mr. Clarkson, I'm not comfortable letting a drunk adult man into my car."

Dailey, having drunk too quickly and feeling frustrated, was now dizzy and irritated.

He felt that those words shouldn't have come from her but didn't think it through and blurted out, "But you said before, if I ever got drunk, to call you to pick me up, and then we could..."

"Mr. Clarkson." Christine cut him off coldly.
