Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 506

At Vista Town International Airport, Edith stepped out in her striking red heels, making her way confidently towards the waiting Rolls-Royce. As she bent to get in, her dress fluttered slightly, revealing her slender, pale legs for a fleeting moment.

Herbert Taylor's gaze darkened with memories of just two days ago, how those legs were wrapped around his waist in a passionate embrace.

Leaving the freeway behind, they headed straight for the downtown area, with Edith humming a tune, seemingly in a good mood.

Suddenly, Herbert answered a call, his voice laced with seriousness and a hint of excitement, "Are you sure about that? Alright, send me her address on Messenger."

Edith glanced at him curiously, "That excited? Did your uncle finally kick the bucket?"

Herbert's uncle was notorious for his schemes and even kidnapped their son, Ike, once. Edith couldn't hide her disdain for the man, especially when she remembered Ike's injuries.

Herbert's expression softened slightly, "Aaron found out my sister has settled in Vista Town. I'm planning to drop by."

"Your sister?" Edith was confused for a moment before realization hit her, "The one who cut ties with the Taylor family years ago and whom you never talk about?"

Even within the family, her name was rarely mentioned, shrouded in a sort of respectful silence.

Herbert simply nodded.

Upon reaching Cloud Villas, Edith chose to wait in the car to avoid any awkwardness. For the first time, she saw hesitation on Herbert's face.

"If you don't want to wait, the driver can take you home," Herbert offered, his voice unusually gentle.

Edith quickly agreed.

...

Later that evening, as we were about to start dinner, the doorbell rang. It was Edith.

Ike rushed into his mother's arms, and after their heartfelt reunion, I invited Edith to join us for dinner.

Gregory teased her, "Had enough fun?"
