I turned around and saw Gregory striding in.
He had an icy aura, unusually dressed in a suit and tie, the latter loosely undone, a rare sight for him.
It looked like he had rushed over from the Ford Group.
My panic and desperation dissipated at the sight of him, and I let out a long sigh of relief.
Gregory came over and embraced me, not saying a word of comfort, but his hand gently soothed my back.
Then, his gaze shifted coldly towards Pearl, "I didn't come looking for trouble, but it seems you've invited it upon yourself."
He was usually laid back, rarely speaking in such a manner.
Even though he was trying to control his emotions, I could feel the raging anger within him.
I knew, he was doing this for me.
"You've got the antidote, yet you never stopped harassing my daughter. Without taking drastic measures, how could you, Gregory, possibly show up to listen to me?" Pearl said, glancing behind Gregory at Dorothy, who was held by Lucius, looking unharmed but unconscious.
"What have you done to my daughter?"
Gregory nodded indifferently, his voice cool yet infuriating, "Whatever you did, I’ve done the same. Fair is fair."
"You—"
Gregory cut her off, "I'm not known for my patience. Don't think kidnapping Ramona will intimidate me. Your daughter is here, now let Ramona go."
Pearl was afraid of Gregory, but she had to achieve her goal now that things had come this far.
"Just exchanging hostages isn’t enough, I want the Myers family fortune too."
Gregory's lips pressed tightly together.
Feeling his emotions, I gripped his hand tighter.
Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson)
This story is useless now. there is no essence. Jane is a whore, at least Bryant never sleep around. There was a misunderstanding between him and his step sister but he never slept with anyone. Bryant should just find a good woman by his side. Jane and Gregory will have a baby. Jane found her biological mother. So what else to be expect in this story?...
Who is the ML ? Hope its Greg.. but I kinda feel pity for Bryant too now.....
