Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 799

Even without the finesse of a fancy restaurant, the meal was still delicious.

"But Jane, I'm thinking of splitting up with Dailey."

...

When Dailey returned to the Clarkson household, Nelly was descending the stairs.

He glanced her way but silently headed to his room.

For some reason, Nelly seemed to lose her footing as if she was about to tumble down the stairs.

He didn't reach out, but Nelly grabbed his arm.

After steadying herself, she was visibly shaken. "That scared me to death, thank goodness you were here, Dai."

"Otherwise, we might have lost our baby."

Dailey's expression remained indifferent.

Since that night at the hotel, he couldn't make sense of Nelly anymore and didn't intend to try.

In the end, he was sure he wouldn't give her another chance to manipulate the situation.

After a long silence, a suggestion from Gregory crossed his mind.

"Nelly, would you marry me?"

Nelly was stunned, hardly believing what she had heard.

Especially since Dailey had feigned illness just to visit Christine at the hospital.

And now, out of the blue, he was proposing marriage.

Knowing it could be a trap, her happiness was uncontrollable.

"Dai, you do have me in your heart after all…"

"Let's have the wedding before your belly gets too big. Go pick out a wedding dress with my mom."

"Of course!"

Nelly was thrilled, yet a sliver of rationality remained. "But… will the Clarksons agree to you marrying me?"

To the Clarksons, what mattered was whether the child was indeed his.

The Clarksons were known for their calm composure and cold indifference, something Nelly was all too familiar with.

But she understood it, too.

Kindness alone wouldn't have brought them to their current status.

Dailey looked down. "As long as the child is well and proven to be mine in a month, they will naturally agree."
