Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 796

In the hospital room, Dailey was carefully peeling an apple for Christine.

The two hadn't spoken much all day.

Yet, everything that needed to be said was understood.

Dailey peeled the apple meticulously, making sure even the smallest bits of peel were gone.

He fed Christine piece by piece.

After she finished the apple, he offered her some water.

Then, he finally spoke up, "Hungry for anything special? I can go grab it for you."

Christine couldn't really shake her head, so she just waved her hand, "You should head back."

...

After a moment of silent understanding, Dailey leaned over and gently kissed her forehead.

"I'm sorry."

Christine reached up to embrace him, patting his back, "You've got nothing to be sorry for."

"It's not about Nelly."

So, it was Madge's harsh words then.

Christine caught on and asked, "Were you at the door when your grandma came?"

"Yeah."

"So, you heard everything."

"I did."

Dailey hugged her tenderly, then suddenly tightened his arms around her as if wishing he could meld her into his very bones.

"I told them, too, I'm sticking by you no matter what."

Christine managed a laugh, "That's all I needed to hear. Now, go on, get back."

"Don't come see me until you've sorted things out."

Dailey let go of her, adjusting her pillow and tucking the blanket around her more snugly.

"Rest up. I'll come see you whenever I get a chance."

"Alright, off you go."

Leaving the room took Dailey what seemed like an eternity, though it was only a few steps to the door.
