Christine knew full well that Gregory had come over.
The couple hadn't seen each other all evening, probably caught up in their own little world of affection, so she wasn't in a hurry to have Jane return.
She was keeping an eye on the medication, and just as she was starting to feel drowsy, the door to the room swung open.
Expecting Jane, she greeted the newcomer with a smile, "I thought you wouldn't be back until lunchtime..."
But the person who walked in wasn't Jane. Instead, Christine saw a face that, despite the marks of time, was well-maintained.
Sitting up straighter, she acknowledged the visitor, "Madge."
"Can I get you some water?"
Christine reached out, intending to pour a glass of water.
Madge stepped closer, stopping her with a gesture, "No need."
Then, taking a seat in the chair nearby, she said, "Don't be nervous, I just wanted to have a chat."
Christine was a social butterfly, comfortable in conversation with just about anyone.
But facing Gregory's grandmother, she felt a bit uneasy.
"You want to talk about me and Dailey, right?"
Madge was a veteran of the corporate world, having carved a path for herself before playing matchmaker for her son with a woman of similar resolve and a family with a business pedigree.
For Dailey, it seemed she had been scouting potential partners since his birth.
The Clarkson family wasn't exactly like the Ford family.
Their enemies were numerous.
Now that Caldwell had stepped down, his son was still active in politics, and Dailey was expected to follow suit.

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.....
