Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 317

Yancey stumbled home in a daze, and even before entering the house, he could already hear Lily's crying.

"What does she want from me? How long does she plan to torment me? I've had enough! I'm going to fight her to the end!"

Lily had been mentally stretched to her limit these days. Every time she closed her eyes, all she saw was people laughing at her.

Her husband, Andrew, had gotten involved with her own sister, and now, everyone was treating her like a joke. Andrew couldn't stand her constant meltdowns at home and simply stopped coming back. Lily tried to complain to Jordan, but after going too many times, the Hendersons stopped letting her in.

Lily was left to argue daily with Yelena, shouting and screaming like a madwoman.

As Yancey stepped into the living room, completely drenched, he was struck by an ashtray thrown by Lily. He didn't even feel the pain. He merely stumbled back a few steps and stared blankly at the blood dripping onto the floor.

Lily was startled and rushed over in a panic. "Yancey, are you alright?"

Yancey raised a hand to cover the wound in a daze.

He suddenly remembered the day Yelena and Andrew got together. He suspected Grace was behind it but later convinced himself she truly loved him and couldn't have done such a thing. So, he let it go. But looking at the chaos around him now, he suddenly started laughing.

Grace held some of the world's most difficult certifications. That woman was no fool. Back when she pursued him, her acting had been eerily convincing. Clearly, she was incredibly capable.

At the time, Lily had tormented Grace and tried to marry her off to her brother, Hendricks Parker. Soon after, Lily's perfect marriage fell apart, and Hendricks ended up in trouble too.

One by one, piece by piece, once it all clicked in his mind, Yancey began to laugh uncontrollably.
