Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 606

Elmwood Villas was just a short drive from the hospital.

Gregory didn't want to sleep, yet at my insistence, he closed his eyes for a quick nap.

That brief moment of rest was enough to show how tired he was.

I didn't want to wake him, feeling secure with the bodyguard by our side.

Yet, as soon as the car gently stopped, Gregory woke up, instinctively tightening his grip on my hand, protecting me as we got out.

He had made arrangements with the hospital director in advance, so our visit was swift.

While waiting for the results, Gregory, fearing I would overthink, started talking about the Myers family saga, "Pearl knew I wouldn't let them off easily. That night, after returning, she poisoned Victor, manipulating him into signing over his assets."

Hearing this, my emotions were flat. Victor had it coming. I only asked, "Does he know about Pearl and Josiah's affair?"

"And that Dorothy is Pearl and Josiah's daughter?"

Gregory shook his head, "It was all a charade. Josiah kidnapped Pearl and Dorothy, forcing Victor to sign. He thought the poison was Josiah's doing, not Pearl's."

I smirked, "He truly loved Pearl, didn't he?"

Gregory played with my hand, "Let's not dwell on it anymore."

"Jane!"

Christine Jackson came running over, excited, "Ramona! Ramona wants to see you!"

I was momentarily confused, "What did you say?"

"Ramona wants to see you!"

Realizing what she meant, I was overjoyed, quickly following Gregory to Ramona's room, "She recognizes me?"

Christine was beaming, "Yes, I was just checking on her, and she asked for you by name. I had to come find you right away."

My heart, which was in limbo, finally found peace. I was so moved, I almost cried.
