Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 413

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Gregory’s eyes were fixed on me, piercing. “When did this happen?”

I told him the truth, “Yesterday.”

“So you’re saying…” He laughed, a sound laced with sarcasm. “So, you went back to him, spent two years realizing it’s not working out, and now you’re thinking of turning back to me?”

My fingers tightened involuntarily, but he seemed oblivious to the pain, his gaze mocking yet intense. His eyes were full of scrutiny and questioning.

Abruptly, I withdrew my hand and stood up hastily, instinctively denying, “That’s not it.”

Gregory’s smile turned roguish. “Then what is it?”

I avoided his gaze. “How’s your leg doing?”

“Jane, aren’t you usually quite sharp with your words?” He grabbed my wrist, pulling me closer, his voice tight with emotion, “Why so silent now? Feeling guilty?”

“Gregory…”

He wasn’t using much strength; I managed to pull away with a little effort, whispering, “If you have to think that way, then maybe I am guilty.”

Perhaps, I was guilty after all.

He smirked. “Do you know what this sounds like?”

“What?”

“The playbook of a heartbreaker.”

I pursed my lips, then I said, “It’s getting late, should go.”

As I left River Villa in a hurry…

Gregory watched my retreating figure, a shadow of restraint crossing his face.
