Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 455



So, I hadn't heard a peep about Gregory getting back together with Jane when I dropped by his place yesterday. After mulling it over, Clarence was adamant, shaking his head. "No way, Dailey. You might not get Gregory as well as you think..."

Dailey fell silent, not bothering to argue. He knew all too well what was going on in Gregory's mind. A guy who could wait for someone for over two decades without a glimmer of hope wasn't about to switch lanes that easily.

Christine, finding Clarence's naivety amusing and never one to shy away from stirring the pot, chimed in, "How about we make a bet?"

Clarence was intrigued, "Bet on what?"
