Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 724

The sound of bones cracking could be heard distinctly in the air.

But Dailey didn't seem to have any intention of letting go. Instead, he gripped Merritt's hand tighter and twisted it forcefully.

Merritt, struggling to keep silent, turned red in the face, his eyes brimming with unshed tears.

Dailey, on the other hand, even though his fingers were slightly twisted and his forearm bore scratches from Merritt, remained stoic. "This is none of your business," he said coolly.

The sound of a slap echoed, freezing everyone in place.

Except for Christine.

She shook her hand out, her gaze icy as she looked at Dailey, "I hope that slap gives Mr. Clarkson a clear message."

Dailey's face registered shock as he released Merritt, and rubbed the cheek that had been slapped.

Now, with one side still bearing scratches and the other marked by a slap, his face had become oddly symmetrical. "Dai!"

Nelly stepped forward, her voice laced with concern, "It's swollen. Does it hurt a lot?"

While speaking, she took Dailey by the arm, "Let's go over there. I'll get some ice for that."

Dailey didn't move, his gaze fixed on Christine.

Christine tried to pull her arm away, but his grip was firm.

Her patience was wearing thin.

"Dailey, you're really devaluing yourself with this behavior."
