Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 260

I frowned, catching the crux of the matter, "For me? Did he get hurt this time because of me again?"

Kevin scratched his head. "Uh..."

I racked my brains but couldn't think of any trouble I'd recently caused Bryant. We had barely even spoken these past few days.

Kevin hesitated, so I went straight to the point. " I'm just going to ask him myself if you don't tell me."

"Don't..." Kevin finally compromised, "It's about that abandoned building on the outskirts of town, remember?"

I was shocked. "How could I forget?"

That was the place where my first kidnapping happened, not something easily forgotten. But I thought Bryant had that problem solved.

Mentioning it, Kevin got a bit heated. "That jerk Jarrod, the bald guy, remember? He tried to force us to hand over the lot in West End. When he bit off more than he could chew, he crawled back to Mr. Ferguson, offering a deal but wanting an 80% cut. Mr. Ferguson disagreed."

I asked, "And then?"

Kevin continued, "He got desperate and tried to 'invite' Mr. Ferguson to his turf two nights ago, hoping to force an agreement. But his guys, as dumb as bricks, caused a major car accident while trying to stop Mr. Ferguson's car."

When hearing that, my feelings were mixed. It was because of me.

Seeing my reaction, Kevin added, "Mrs. Ferguson, you know Mr. Ferguson doesn't like others fussing over him, and I'm not the caring type..."

I clenched my hand. "I understand."

After all, he brought himself the trouble while trying to save me last time.

When I entered again, Bryant was about to lie down, wincing from the pain of his injury.

"Why didn't you call for help?" I went over to assist him, letting him use me to ease himself down.

"I don't need anyone else." He said it softly, pulling me closer, causing me to nearly stumble onto his wounds, his eyes filled with anticipation, "Are you worried about me?"
