Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 798

Greg's eyes turned a shade colder, "If she finds a way to get rid of the baby after the wedding, then it's not yours. If she doesn't, then it's definitely yours."

Dailey couldn't help but laugh, "Let me ask you something, if you were in the same boat, would you use this tactic?"

Greg leaned back in his chair, his casual tone piercing straight to the heart, "I wouldn't let such a situation happen in the first place."

...

Hospital.

After getting her IV removed, Christine was ready to leave the hospital.

She didn't fancy staying any longer, risking more unwanted conversations.

Back in her cozy apartment, she felt her spirits lifting. Maybe all she needed was to be home to start feeling better.

"Did you start cooking?"

Jane went to pour her a glass of water, noticing the kitchen was filled with new utensils and the fridge was stocked full.

"If I remember correctly, you couldn’t cook to save your life."

"Nice way to put it."

Christine leaned against the doorframe, sipping on a yogurt drink, "Dailey cooks, I do the dishes."

Jane was surprised, "You're doing dishes?"

"I thought you hated the feel of grease on your hands."

"And didn’t you install a dishwasher for that very reason?"

Jane could never understand why Christine would bother getting a dishwasher if she didn’t cook.

It seemed pointless then. But now, it was hard to argue.

"It looks like you two are getting along well, in every aspect."

Christine tossed the yogurt container in the trash and rubbed her face, her voice unusually low, "Jane, coming home, I suddenly feel..."

Knowing each other for years, even Christine's hesitations were clear to Jane.

Jane hugged her, gently patting her back, "Chris, you've walked through tougher paths before. I believe you'll do even better now and in the future, and I'll always be here with you."

"I'll take it."

Jane took the meals from their hands, "Thanks for the trouble."

"It's our duty."

Lucius clearly had other matters to attend to and left promptly.

Primo stepped aside, standing upright.

Jane didn’t inquire further, guessing Dailey must have found out Christine was discharged and sent his trusted man to ensure she wasn't disturbed.

She walked in, teasing Christine with the meal Primo brought, "Your love meal."

Christine shot her a look, "Like you're any different."

Jane laughed, "Remember when I gave you the bouquet at my wedding? When you wished me happiness, I said we'd be happy together, sharing in the joy."

Christine smiled too.

Taking a bite of the meal Dailey had sent over, she still thought his cooking was the best.
