Chapter 177 Regret

Chapter 127 Regret It?

Whitney’s face was ghostly pale as she looked down, her fashes trembling. She saw Klein crash onto the air cushion the firefighters had just set up

She had no idea if he was hurt

Whitney rushed downstairs, her legs still weak and shaky When she spotted Justin looking completely lost and shattered, her voice snapped with anger. “Why are you just standing there? Come with, mel

Justin knew he’d messed up big time. He stumbled to his feet and hurled after her

As soon as they hit the first floor, Klein got up, rubbing his shoulder. “I’m fine…”

Before he could finish, Whitney hugged him tightly.

Her voice trembling, Whitney buried her face against his shoulder. “You scared me to death. I’m just so relieved you’re okay. I was really terrified…”

Klein let out a low, involuntary laugh, a rush of joy flooding through him.

‘She’s actually worried about me, Klein realized.

“Babe, everyone’s watching. Let’s save the hugs for when we get home,” Klein joked.

Whitney glanced up at him, both startled and flustered, meeting his eyes that sparkled with laughter.

Out of the corner of her eye, Whitney noticed the crowd of onlookers gossiping. “Aww, look at these two. So in love! Must ve scared you, huh? Next time, be careful playing the hero!”

“Atta boy! Go on, take your wife home,” someone else called out.

Then the older folks in the neighborhood crowded around Justin, the guy who had almost jumped.

“Kid, why would you lose hope like that?” one of them asked.

“Justin, I heard you were planning to go back home to see your mom. No parent should ever have to bury their child. She’d be devastated,” another chimed in.

“Yeah, we get that life’s tough for young people these days, but you can’t just give up. All those years of hard work would go to waste!” someone else added.

The elders kept trying to talk sense into him, repeating their advice over and over. Justin just nodded, looking lost and embarrassed, his face flushed with shame.

Justin finally squeezed through the crowd and gave Whitney and Klein a deep, apologetic bow. “I’m really sorry.

“I won’t do anything like that again!”

Whitney and Klein exchanged a smile, glad their rescue hadn’t been for nothing.

Klein’s gaze turned sharp. “That’s the spirit, Justin. You’re a man. Don’t act weak. If you don’t like your fate, get out there and change it yourself!”

Carter, are you really going to cancel me?” she asked, her voice trembling

Carter frowned. “Uncle Klein stepped in Emily, why did you have to go after Whitney?

‘Here we go again, Emily thought, frustration bubbling up inside her
