Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 843

"Right, right, right."

Christine nodded enthusiastically, her expression like a bobbing chicken. "You really know me best."

Jane patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry, there's no way you're getting that marriage certificate."

Christine asked, "How come?"

Jane replied, "With Dailey's father's influence, just a word from him and no one at city hall would dare register you in the system."

"That's true."

Christine realized her earlier anger had clouded her judgment.

Now, she wasn't worried at all.

Merritt also breathed a sigh of relief, though he still apologized to Christine.

Christine waved it off. "Let's not dwell on it."

However, she did apologize to Helena. "Sorry if we disturbed you."

Helena smiled warmly. "I've lived long enough not to be startled by such things. Let me make up a bed for you. I have a room with a big enough bed for a few of you to share, so you can chat comfortably."

Christine went to help her.

Meanwhile, Merritt poured tea for Jane and Bella and brought some snacks. He also steamed an egg custard for Mira before heading to the room across the hall.
