Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 190

On the way, Mark gripped the steering wheel, glancing over at me, “Still
worried about Christine?”
“Not really.” I shook my head. “She can handle her stuff.”
Christine always had a way of weighing things out in her mind. I believed she
knew when to step back.
“Right.” Mark responded softly, “So, what about the offer? Have you given it
any thought?”
“Mark, I appreciate your offer.” After expressing my gratitude, I explained, “I
can’t make it for now. Too much has been going on lately. I need some time to
process.”

I needed to sort things out calmly and then focus wholeheartedly on work.
Mark didn’t seem to mind but chuckled, “Guess we won’t even be colleagues
for a day.”
“Huh?” I was puzzled.
Mark’s eyes deepened, and his lips parted slightly with a hint of warmth,
hardly noticed. “Some things came up that I need to address sooner, so I’m
heading back to the Larson family soon.”

about the lash he took earlier that day made me worry for him.
Mark’s smile was evident. “Are you worried about me?”
“A bit, yes.”
“Don’t be.” His face carried a gentle warmth, exuding a reassuring presence.
“I know what I’m doing. I won’t let myself get into trouble again.”
I didn’t press further, vaguely guessing his return to the Larson family must be
about the girl he liked. Or perhaps it was all for the girl he loved?
