Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 426

The timestamp on the recording lined up perfectly. At the exact moment Selena had fallen, Sherry had been talking about marriage with Lucas.

It was a direct, undeniable clapback.

The expressions on everyone's faces turned utterly hideous.

None of them had imagined the two were this close.

Lying in bed together, so intimate—and worst of all, Lucas had openly said he wanted to marry her.

He never made empty promises. When he said something like that, he meant it. How could he do this?

What gave this woman the right to be with Lucas, let alone marry him?

"I really did underestimate you," Sherry said. "I almost fell for your trap. What you did has taught me exactly what kind of people you are."

These people would truly stop at nothing to get what they wanted.

From now on, Sherry would never underestimate them again.

"But I can also file a counterclaim for false accusation and attempted framing. I wonder what the sentence is for that here in Keiperian."

Where there had been stubborn defiance before, sudden panic spread across their faces.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I took this too far," Selena stammered, staring at Lucas. "I've already been punished enough. Please, let me off this once.

"We've been together for so long, been through so much. You know I love you more than anyone. Just let me be selfish this one time, okay?"

Lucas didn't even glance at her.

He kept his eyes on Sherry and asked, "How do you want to handle this?"

Was he leaving the choice up to her?

Honestly, with everything that had happened lately, if it had been anyone else, Sherry would have walked away already. The only reason she hadn't was that Lucas had treated her incredibly well.

But her patience had run thin. She was already sick of their attitudes. He wanted her to decide? She wouldn't hold back anymore.

"They wanted to lock me up earlier," she said. "So we'll do it their way. Don't accuse me of being cold later. You all chose this."

Her words cut off anything Selena had been about to say.
