Lost Me Gained Regret

Clarence had just dropped Nelly off and was now driving over to Christine's place.

Reaching the building, he called Christine, but she didn't pick up. Instead, she texted him back.

["Big bro, I'm asleep."]

However, the doorman told him that she had just left with a young guy, heading into the alley across the street.

Christine wasn't a celebrity by any means, but her outgoing nature and stunning looks meant she could strike up a conversation with anyone and definitely turned heads.

Having lived there for a while, she had become friendly with the doorman, often giving him small gifts or local delicacies during the holidays.

So, whenever a guy came looking for her, the doorman would inform her first instead of just letting him through.

Thinking Clarence was just another lovestruck guy who couldn't take a hint, the doorman mentioned that Christine had a boyfriend now - a younger, more handsome one at that.

It was no surprise someone as gorgeous as Christine had plenty of admirers.

"You shouldn't be out here in the cold," the doorman said, noting Clarence's luxury car and speaking with a polite tone. "Ms. Jackson isn't the type to be swayed by money alone, and she's doing quite well for herself. Love can't be forced, after all." Taking the doorman's words to heart, Clarence sullenly returned to his car and pulled out his phone to message his friends in their group chat.

["I've been dumped."]
