Regrets Come Too Late (Sierra and Johnny) novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248

Sierra watched everything unfold, her chest tighter than it had ever been, filled with all kinds of complex emotions.

She had always known John and his parents didn’t get along, but she had never imagined he would go that far for her.

Solomon said John’s childhood had been bad, but what kind of childhood made him like this? How were Danny and Agnes involved in his past? Had he considered his own history at that moment, no matter how briefly?

For a moment, Sierra wanted to hug him.

But she knew he didn’t need pity. He didn’t need anyone’s sympathy. He needed someone to choose him completely without

hesitation.

However, she couldn’t choose him like that. She couldn’t pretend there was nothing between him and Pamela.

Even so…

She walked over and took his hand. It was the first time she had reached for him on her own since they started the divorce.”

You’re still soaked. Let’s go back and get you changed.”

John froze.

The coldness in his eyes melted the second he looked at her:

Sierra had no idea what was going through his mind, but she knew they had to get out of here fast. If his childhood really had been as bad as Solomon said, what happened today could drag him right back into its darkness.

She tightened her grip around his hand and said it again. “Come on.”

John didn’t say anything and simply let her lead him away.

Once they were some distance off, Lucy caught the look John tossed her before he left and turned to Robin. “Alright, little birdie. Wrap things up.”

“Sure.”

Robin dragged Danny to the edge of the pond and let go.

With nowhere else to put her rage, Agnes focused her rage on Robin and screamed, “I’ll have you kicked out of the Henderson Group!”

“Agnes, Robin is the CEO’s most capable right–hand man,” Lucy said, pale lips turning into a smile, looking handsome without trying, “The board might not agree to let him go, even if you wanted to.”

Robin might have been just a personal assistant, but his status at Henderson Group and personal abilities were above those of most senior executives.

Not to mention, John had his back all the way.

Agnes kept yelling behind them, but Lucy and Robin ignored her. Watching how calm Robin stayed from start to finish, Lary couldn’t help but ask, “You’re really not afraid if something goes wrong and John makes you take the fall?”

“He won’t,” Robin said without hesitation.

Lucy blinked.

She had grown up with John, so it made sense that she understood him.

But Robin’s relationship with him was one of a superior and a subordinate. How could he trust John this much?

“The boss can be hard to read sometimes, but he’s someone very reliable,” Robi said, completely trusting John. “Even if I

really messed something up, he would still clean it up for me.”

“You’re too trusting,” Lucy muttered.

The words were sharp as usual, but she was glad John had someone like Robin as his personal assistant.

As they were chatting, John opened the car door and got out, handing a bag of clothes to the drenched Robin.

“Go straight for about 150 feet, then turn left. There’s a lounge. Change into dry clothes there.”

“Thanks, Boss.” Robin took the clothes.

John looked at Lucy.

She understood right away. “I’ll wait here for him. When you’re done talking, roll the window down and let me know.”

After what just happened, a certain someone needed to calm his shaken wife down.
