Lost Me Gained Regret



Jane slid the wedding invitation across the table, "Can't skip town just yet. Dailey's getting hitched in three days."

Gregory, being Dailey's lifelong buddy, couldn't possibly miss it.

Christine glanced at the invite and said, "Guess I'll head over first and wait for you guys."

"Planning to stay for a bit, or are you thinking of settling down there?" Jane teased.

Flipping her hair with a hint of mystery, Christine replied, "Well, who knows?"

Jane said, "Whatever you decide to do, I'm behind you, as long as you're happy."

After wrapping up some loose ends at work, Christine booked a flight to Mistwood. Right before takeoff, she shot Merritt a quick message.

Just as she was about to doze off, the person next to her got up, and then someone else took the seat.

The familiar, crisp scent of tobacco made her frown.

Turning her head, she was met with a face that was always cool and detached.

...

Having made some money and established her career, Christine never settled for less.

Naturally, she had booked a first-class ticket.

Seeing Dailey in first class wasn't the issue; it was him taking the seat next to her.

But she didn't say anything, just turned away and tried to sleep.

Waking up, she found a black and gray coat covering her, even though she had asked a flight attendant for a blanket earlier.

Glancing over, the person next to her was covered with a blanket.

Since all the blankets looked the same, she couldn't claim it as hers.

But it was pretty clear whose coat it was.

She took it off and tossed it back at him.

Dailey opened his eyes just as the announcement for the plane's descent started. Christine didn't speak.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

But once they landed, he was still following her, and she couldn't stand it anymore.

"What are you doing?"

"Didn't you say 'no' when I asked you to call off the wedding yesterday?"

"So, you're okay with us breaking up. What's the deal with following me now?"

"Get lost."

After her rant, Dailey just coolly replied, "Business trip."

Christine didn't believe him for a second.

"Dailey, this is pointless."

"Let's end this with some dignity. I don't want to look back and only feel disgust." "Merritt!" she called out as he approached, all smiles and warmth.

He took Christine's luggage, "Didn't l tell you not to bother picking me up? You just got home and now you're out again. Shouldn't you be visiting grandma?"

Merritt chuckled, "Then let's hurry back, don't want to keep grandma waiting."

Dailey might as well have been invisible to him as he took Christine's hand and started to walk away.

But they hadn't gone far when Dailey grabbed Christine's other hand.

"Christine, I regret it."

Christine didn't care about his regrets and tried to shake off his grip.

But he held on tighter.

"Merritt, call the police."

Before she could react further, a shadow loomed over her, and a cool kiss landed on her lips.

She instantly tried to push him away, but his hand was firm against the back of her head, deepening the kiss.

Unbelievable!

Christine bit him in response.

The incident was so sudden and shocking.

Merritt quickly pulled Christine away and they jumped into a cab, urging the driver to speed off.

Seeing Dailey hadn't followed, they breathed a sigh of relief. Merritt handed her a tissue to wipe the

mouth.

Christine took the tissue, covering her mouth and spat disdainfully several times.
