I can barely bring myself to think about yesterday's antics. Even through a screen, I could feel my cheeks burning up.
And yet, I'm baffled. How does he have so much energy? He was the one doing all the heavy lifting, after all.
I was about to reply when the doorbell rang.
I got up to answer it and was greeted by Christine's pallid face. I quickly shot Greg a message, then pulled Christine into the kitchen to sit down.
"Bet you haven't eaten anything yet."
I ladled some chicken soup for her.
...
Greg noticed my half-hearted reply and figured Christine had shown up, so he didn't respond and went back to his meeting.
The execs understood their CEO was in the honeymoon phase, always a bit more glued to his phone.
Besides, even if they didn't get it, no one dared suggest Greg should stay off his phone during meetings.
...
Elmwood Villas.
Christine accepted the bowl of soup but didn't drink any, listlessly resting her chin in her hand.
I served her a shrimp dumpling, joking, "Did you come here just to show off that pretty but gloomy face of yours?"
Christine didn't crack a smile, instead, she heaved a sigh.
I was clueless, "What's going on, really?"
She ran her fingers through her hair, looking frustrated.
A thought struck me, "Is it... Dailey?"
Christine let out a weak hum.
I remembered the mess from yesterday and asked, "What happened after Greg and I left? Did you guys end up fighting?"
"In a civilized society? Really," Christine said, "Besides, fighting in public is just embarrassing."
"So, you fought at home?"

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.....
