Lost Me Gained Regret

Hearing that, Gregory didn't even bat an eyelid, as if everything was going exactly as he had expected. He just nodded slightly, an acknowledgment of "Hmm," and then strode off towards the sidewalk. Lucius hurried to keep up, methodically planning their next move, "Should I have the guys follow him?"

"Let it be."

"Let it be?"

Lucius usually kept pace with Gregory's thinking, but this time, he was genuinely struggling to keep up. "He's definitely off to meet the big boss behind the scenes, right? Aren't we going to miss a golden opportunity if we don't tail him?"

While saying this, he sprinted ahead of Gregory, pulled open the rear car door, and then, after walking around to the driver's side, got into the car and started it, only to hear Gregory speak in a calm voice: "Josiah might fall into the same trap twice in a moment of desperation, but the person behind him isn't that foolish."

In fact, they might be even more cunning than we anticipated.

Lucius merged into the traffic, pondering for a moment before carefully saying, "You mean, following them this time would be all risk and no reward for us?"

Gregory nodded slightly, his gaze cool, "Pretty much."

He never engaged in a losing deal.

Lucius caught on, scratching his nose and solemnly admitting his mistake, "I was too slow on the uptake, almost put our guys in harm's way."
