Lost Me Gained Regret

Gregory's gaze landed on the tea caddy next to the kettle, and Mark, sensing his attention, struggled to rise but was too weakened from the beating to succeed.

Instead, Gregory grabbed a handful of loose tea leaves and sprinkled them over Mark, revealing something slightly.

He smirked, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Looks like I guessed right."

Mark mustered all his strength to stand, attempting to snatch back the black glass vial from Gregory's grasp.

It contained the only antidote.

But even breathing was a struggle for him, let alone fighting back.

With a slight movement of his hand, Gregory made it impossible for Mark to reach it.

"You think you've won?" Mark managed to say, each word causing him pain, but he pressed on, "Forget everything else, but this time, you can't win. Jane will always choose me." Gregory lifted his finger slightly.

Lucius immediately stepped forward to restrain Mark, while Gregory picked up a butter knife from the coffee table, knelt down in front of Mark, and tapped his face with the blunt side of the knife before turning the blade.

In the next moment, the tip of the knife pierced Mark's calf, cutting through skin and flesh!

Mark clenched his teeth and remained silent, while Gregory stood up, chuckling coldly, "She has good taste, not wasting it on someone like you."
