Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 885

Libby noticed the angry red mark on his neck.

There was even a bite mark on his Adam’s apple.

It was all too clear what had just happened between him and Christine.

Her worst fears had come true.

"And it hasn't even been twenty-four hours since the last time."

Dailey spoke again, his voice as cold as ice, sending a chill through the room.

Libby met his piercing gaze, instinctively taking a step back.

Realizing her mistake, she stepped forward again, standing directly in front of him.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand."

She reached out, trying to grab his arm.

Dailey sidestepped her touch, and Quinn swiftly restrained Libby, kicking the back of her knee and forcing her to kneel.

"Dailey!"

Libby had never been humiliated like this before.

From a young age, everyone had catered to her every whim.

Whatever she desired was handed to her without her even asking.

Dailey, too, was presented to her like a gift from her parents.

Their families were perfectly matched, which opened the door to this opportunity.

An opportunity Christine would never have.

Yet somehow, Christine had captured Dailey's heart.

A love that surpassed everything else.

It was intolerable.

Jayne had even given her tacit approval for what Libby had planned.

"Your mother handed you over to me, so if you want to blame someone, it shouldn't be me."

Dailey looked down at her, his gaze as condescending as looking at trash.

"I'll deal with her in due time. For now, you have a choice: either tell your family you won't marry me, or I'll ensure the Carters never have the capital to join the Clarkson family."

Libby thought of Serena’s fate.
