Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 454

Just off the phone, Gregory's message was crystal clear to Clarence. Gregory was off the market! Clarence wondered which lucky lady had managed to snag Gregory, making him forget his old flame and fall for her instead. But, in the grand scheme of things, that detail was minor. Ever since that drama two years ago, their tight-knit group had been rooting for Gregory to move on and embrace a fresh start. And now, it seemed they had their wish. Whoever this new girl was, in their eyes, she must be something special to have won Gregory over!

Clarence was determined to clear any hurdles for Gregory and Jane, ensuring no misunderstandings cropped up between her and Gregory because of Jane. Christine was in disbelief, even more shocked than Clarence, "What did you say? He’s got a girlfriend now??" Just half an hour ago, Jane had asked her to head over first with Ike, leaving her to have a one-on-one with Gregory at Elmwood Villas. And now, Clarence was telling her Gregory had a girlfriend. What was going on???

Her savvy-in-love bestie had been swept off her feet! Completely taken in by Gregory. Seeing her reaction, Clarence grew even more smug, "Surprised, huh? I'm just saying, you better take that little rascal with you and leave before it gets embarrassing..." "I can leave, fine," Christine looked at him as if he were nuts, pointing at Ike, "But him too?"

Dailey looked up from his phone, his tone indifferent. "Clarence, maybe wait till Gregory shows up before jumping to conclusions." "Once Gregory shows, it’ll be too late!" After all, his girlfriend would be with him. Clarence glanced at Christine, nodding as if it were the most natural conclusion, "What else? Leave the kid here? How are we supposed to explain him to Jane? Pretend he's Gregory's nephew?"

Christine felt a vengeful satisfaction, smiling, "Are you sure? What if he really is Gregory’s nephew?" Little Ike sat on the couch, big eyes blinking, legs swinging, oblivious to the adult drama unfolding. This uncle was being horribly rude. He had to let his uncle know how he was being bullied!
