Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 674

Christine had been on the hunt all day.

Finally, she found a place that ticked all her boxes.

If only it wouldn't rain, then it would be absolutely perfect.

“Oh, my back...”

Exhausted, she collapsed onto the couch as soon as she got home, too tired to move or think about doing anything.

But after a while, she forced herself up to remove her makeup.

While she was putting on a face mask, her phone on the coffee table wouldn't stop buzzing.

Picking it up, she saw the caller ID and let out a scoff.

Nope, not answering that.

And straight to the block list it went.

Meanwhile, Dailey was left hanging.

He had waited all day, and Christine hadn’t sent even a single message his way.

Did she really not care about him anymore?

Was she really ready to reduce him to less than a stranger in her life?

Rubbing his aching forehead, he sent her a message.

"Tomorrow, 4 PM, at the Hillside Café. We need to talk."

Christine never got the message.

Blocking someone meant no notifications, no hints.

Dailey didn't check to see if she'd received it. He assumed she had.

...

The wind picked up in the evening, sneaking through the slightly ajar balcony door and causing the curtains to flutter.

Moonlight illuminated the entwined figures on the bed.

I pushed against Gregory, "We agreed, just this once."

Bare-chested, Gregory’s body radiated heat, making my cheeks flush. His deep brown eyes were filled with a hidden depth, clearly not satisfied.

But I wanted to try on my dress early in the morning, to sort any issues in good time.

If we let this drag on, I wouldn't sleep till the early hours.

And then, waking up early would be a struggle.
