Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 340

Like Lucas, he had a dangerous aura—but in very different ways.

Lucas rarely spoke. His gaze was sharp, his deep eyes holding a quiet destruction that looked down on everything.

Sherry hadn't seen it at first, but people always said Lucas was like a destroyer. Most people were too scared to go near him.

Sherry saw care and sensitivity beneath his coldness. He noticed every shift in her mood. He could never be a real destroyer.

Not until she started watching him more closely.

Hector was different. He looked roguish and playful, but the darkness in his eyes was just as deep as Lucas'.

Sherry was dead sure he was scarier.

With Lucas, you felt afraid from the start and stayed away instinctively.

But with Hector, you were drawn to him. Then you were swallowed and destroyed.

He wasn't ridiculously stupid like Gilbert. He was a master at controlling hearts.

The kind that made people fall hopelessly.

Back in school, to avoid being beaten, Sherry learned to read people—students and adults alike.

She hadn't realized it then; she just felt when someone was dangerous and stayed away.

Hector was exactly that kind of person. And every time they met, Yelena...

Hector cut off her thoughts.

"You don't really think your friend is some brave warrior, do you?"

"Of course I do!" Sherry stood straight. "Because of my useless mother, I was bullied and isolated by everyone when I was little. Yelena gave me the courage to fight back!

"She was the fragile one, small and weak, but she refused to back down. She fought anyway."

And they won.

That was when she discovered she had a talent for fighting.

She'd run home happily to tell Claire, only to be screamed at and called a disgrace.

Later, when the Hunt family exempted her from all tuition, her mother added sweetly, "My child has a real talent for fighting."

Just like that.

Right. Yelena had given her so much courage. So how did she end up living like this?

She lost herself and became a housewife.

Hector leaned down and whispered into Yelena's ear.

"Is that really how it was? Were you really that brave...?"

Yelena suddenly grabbed Sherry's hand.

"Let's go somewhere else. I don't want to eat here anymore."
