Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 351

I didn't spare him another glance.

Standing before me, Lilliana seemed even more formidable than Margaret ever was. I certainly didn't want to bump heads with her.

"Maybe you should get a DNA test too."

"Jane, answer me."

"Playing hooky again?"

...

The atmosphere in the hall maintained a superficial lightness as my phone kept buzzing with one message after another.

I frowned, setting Gregory Ford's chat to Do Not Disturb.

With the very much alive Lilliana standing right here, he still thought maybe I was the one.

"Ms. Webster, fresh off your divorce and your phone's buzzing non-stop."

Susan, ever observant of my situation, chimed in with a snide remark, "You're quick to jump back in the dating pool, aren't you?"

Gregory clicked his tongue, ready to blow up on the spot.

I didn't want to get entangled with him at this crucial moment, so I replied first, "Average at best, can't top Dorothy Myers. I've just gotten a divorce, and she's already been engaged and broken it off with my ex!"

Susan glared at me fiercely. She did it on purpose, intending to embarrass me in front of all these people.

But again, who doesn't know how to hit a nerve?

Adah seemed to catch the underlying tension and frowned, "Jane, was your ex-husband Bryant Ferguson from the Ferguson family of RiverCity?"

"Yes, that's him." I admitted openly.

Having loved someone and been married isn't something to be ashamed of.

She was all smiles.

After hanging up, she looked at me as if to gloat, "Jane, you're the only one who treasures your ex-husband like he's some kind of gem. Our Dorothy might just become the lady of RF Group, or at the very least, a CEO's wife."

York probably never thought he'd go from being Bryant's underling to his backup plan.

Couldn't marry Bryant? Marry him instead?

I couldn't help but laugh, looking at Susan, "Well then... congratulations to Ms. Myers in advance, once again."

"Stop being so sarcastic."

Susan and I never got along, she scoffed, "You're just jealous of Dorothy. After all, it's her first marriage - she's leagues ahead of you!"

"Susan," Gregory suddenly spoke up with a smirk, "Only the worthless compare first marriages to second ones. Besides being her first marriage, what else does Dorothy have to brag about?"
