Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 694

Dailey waved it off, "No big deal."

Nelly turned to Clarence, "Would you mind giving me a ride home?"

It wasn't really an inconvenience, but Clarence couldn't quite grasp the situation.

Why was Dailey acting so cool towards his ex?

Especially considering he almost cut ties with his family over her.

But then it clicked.

Dailey was naturally reserved, and he had his pride.

Unless he was sure his ex had come back for him, he probably wouldn't make the first move towards reconciliation.

No matter, Nelly wasn't going anywhere soon; there was plenty of time to rekindle old flames.

Besides, Dailey was under the weather, probably not in the mood for matters of the heart.

Once he was back on his feet, he'd surely be ready to talk romance.

"Dailey, come on, give us a smile."

Hearing this, Dailey looked up, his illness making him a bit slow on the uptake.

Clarence snapped a picture, satisfied, and posted it to his social feed.

"I'll drop her off, you just wait here at the hospital."

"I've got other plans. Head home after you're done."

The noise was too much; Dailey didn't feel like talking to Clarence these days.

Clarence, clueless about Dailey's reluctance, waved goodbye, and took Nelly with him.

On the way, Nelly asked with a soft smile, "I noticed Dai seems a bit down lately. I just got back; did something happen?"

"They are, but you're not far behind. With your international education and Dailey's resources, you're set for success. Don't worry."

Nelly wasn't really in the mood to chat with Clarence, but she still wanted to learn more.

Dailey was too reserved, offering no information.

"Speaking of which, there was this tall, handsome guy with them today, looked like a college student."

"He kept calling them 'sis', but they didn't seem related. I didn't want to ask and be intrusive."

Neither of them had a brother.

Greg wouldn't stand a young man hanging around Jane.

So, that guy must be connected to Christine.

"Did you catch how he addressed Christine and Jane?"
