Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 767

Dailey was too tired to argue, his feet carrying him towards the sanctuary of his room.

At the door, he spotted Nelly.

He brushed past her, his mind preoccupied with formulating an excuse for Christine, explaining why he couldn't make it to her place tonight.

No time for distractions.

"Dai."

Nelly blocked his path.

Dailey stepped back, his voice icy, "If you can come clean about what really happened that night, I'll stand here and listen. If not, I don't have a minute to spare for your stories."

Nelly looked genuinely shocked. "Dai, what are you talking about? What 'truth' about that night?"

"Are you accusing me of lying to everyone?"

Dailey's silence was enough of an answer.

Tears streamed down Nelly's face. "Dai, even though society has progressed, and women's virtue isn't as scrutinized, do you really think I'd tarnish my reputation with a lie?"

Dailey observed her coldly, disillusioned.

He had been blind to the deceit beneath her innocent exterior.

"I'm starting to believe your 'almost assault' was nothing but a performance."

"Nelly, no matter how well you bury your deeds, the truth has a way of surfacing."

Nelly swayed, as if about to faint.

"Dai... how could you think so low of me?"

"Why would I do such a thing?"

Dailey glanced at his watch, clearly uninterested in her act.

It was all to make him and the Clarkson family feel guilty, he thought.

Nelly's hands tightened inside her pajama sleeves, nearly drawing blood.

Everything had been going smoothly. Why this sudden change?

Christine!
