Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 670

Debating whether to speak up first, Christine downed a glass of ice water and, clenching her teeth, burst out, "Dailey's out of his mind, you know!"

I nodded in agreement.

If you like someone, just say it, right? Get it out in the open, start dating, and do all that couple stuff. What's happening now is just out of line, almost like he's acting like some sort of thug.

Anyone would be upset in this situation.

"Maybe we should call the cops on him."

"I want him to learn his lesson the hard way," Christine said, then paused, realizing something. "Wait, I didn't even tell you what he did. Why would you suggest calling the cops?"

"Ah, I get it."

She leaned back on the couch, arms crossed, looking at me with an inquisitive stare. "Were you spying on us from upstairs last night?"

"..."

I felt guilty; I had intended to go downstairs, but Gregory stopped me. I figured it was their issue, and as a friend, I shouldn't interfere too much.

"I messed up, so let me help you. I'll have a word with Gregory, maybe sway him a bit to take your side."

"But let's not go overboard. After all, Dailey has been a major help to us in the past."

Christine gave a sarcastic laugh. "You're sounding like Gregory's fiancée now, not the unconditional ally you used to be."

I touched my nose, feeling a bit awkward. "I'm just trying to be fair. We can't be too harsh, right? Wouldn't be right."

Christine was just blowing off steam.

After all, Dailey was a major client and Gregory's friend.

She didn't want to put her best friend in a difficult position.

"This time, I'll let it slide, as if I've been bitten by a dog. But if there's a next time, I'll make sure he loses face completely!"
