Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 452

“Edith told me to get them.”

Gregory’s eyes were fixed on mine, his voice laden with meaning. “She said if I’m serious about pursuing you, I should always be ready to move in together, and have all these feminine products stocked up.”

My cheeks flushed. “Who said anything about moving in? Besides, we’re just friends right now!”

“Alright, alright,”

He pulled me closer, his lips meeting mine in a brief, sparkling kiss. “Friends who can kiss and hug: Are you satisfied with that?”

“Stop it, you’re being a rascal!”

I felt a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, quickly standing up to escape his hold.

Gregory grasped my wrist, looking up at me. “Then what are we, according to you?”

“I’m not telling.”

I shot him a look. “Since when does the person being pursued have to make the first move?”

“What about my birthday present, then?”

I sensed a slight shift in his mood, planning to give him his gift later, but now I didn’t want

to wait any longer. “Your present… just give me a second!”

With that, I hurried upstairs, returning with the gift I had initially prepared for him.
