Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 553

Pearl immediately regretted spoiling Dorothy to the point where she had become so entitled!

Yet when it came time to discipline her, Pearl couldn’t bring herself to really lay into her.

Dorothy was left utterly speechless from the rebuke, "What the heck are you doing?! Are you hitting me over some shady guy? Who is he to you, huh? Your ex-flame?!"

Pearl snapped, “Shut up!”

“I won’t! I’m telling Dad!” Fuming, Dorothy’s eyes blazed with anger as she turned to storm out. After all, compared to Jane inheriting the Myers estate, Victor would rather pass it on to her. She didn’t need to rely on Pearl for anything!

But just as she turned, someone knocked her out from behind.

Pearl caught her limp body in time and gently laid her on the couch, sighing deeply before turning to Kane, “Kane... don’t take to heart what Dorothy said. I’ve spoiled her rotten since she was little, that’s why…”

“Why bother explaining?” Kane took her hand, comforting her, “When I got into trouble and vanished so suddenly, it was you who looked after her, managed to bring her into the Myers household, and took care of her personally. I owe you for being so good to her.”

“But it all happened because of me...”

Pearl’s affection for Dorothy was half because she was Kane’s daughter, and half out of guilt and self-reproach.

Kane chuckled, dismissing the past. “Let’s not dwell on that. What’s done is done. What about Jane now?”

“Is there only one antidote?”

“Yes.” Kane confirmed, his eyes narrowing shrewdly, “Should I try to get it back from Mark?”

If they could secure the Myers estate, falling out with Mark wouldn’t matter.
