Chapter 552

작가: Ink the Seventh
John did not like it when others showed him pity or sympathy. He did not want anyone treating him differently because of what he had been through.

If he found out Kenneth had told her about his past, and that was the reason why she stayed, he would definitely pull away from her and treat her coldly.

But… So what?

Sierra did not care how he felt he had toward her. She could handle anything else, as long as he didn't hold onto her or make choices for her without asking first like he used to.

  • Regrets Come Too Late   Chapter 568

    It wasn't long when a middle-aged woman walked over. The moment she saw Pamela standing there with eyes red, she grabbed her by the hair and growled, "You worthless girl! I've been looking all over for you! You don't answer my calls or reply to my messages. Do you think you can do whatever you want?""Ah! That hurts!" Pamela yelped when her scalp started hurting badly."So you do know what pain feels like?" The woman's face darkened a lot more. "Why didn't you think about that when you ignored my messages?""Why should I reply to you?" Pamela yanked herself free, forcing herself out of the woman's grip through the pain. "I already know what you want every time you call. It's always the same thing! I can already tell you now to stop dreaming if you think you're going to marry me off for money!"The woman slapped Pamela on the face. Blood welled at the corner of her mouth immediately, but she glared back stubbornly and refused to back down."Watch your tone with me." The woman's e

    "Then I'm off," Kenneth said after making sure John was doing alright. "Call Robin or me if anything comes up."John gave a quiet grunt.Kenneth was gone in an instant.By the time he got downstairs, Sierra had just gotten into Nicholas's car.Holly was sitting in the passenger seat. She turned and asked Sierra with worry, "John didn't do anything to you, did he?"Sierra shook her head. "No.""Good." Ever since Holly heard Sierra had gone to the hospital because of John, the worry inside had not gone away. "I was afraid he would lose it again like earlier and give you a hard time.""If he tried anything, I would have just turned around and left." Sierra reminded herself to always keep a clear head. "We're not married anymore. He wouldn't dare stop me by force."If something like that happened between husband and wife, people might treat it as a domestic dispute. They might try to mediate it, and nothing would come of it. But after a divorce, there was no relationship that kep

    After half an hour, Sierra sent Kenneth a message. [How much longer until you get here?]Kenneth replied: [Two minutes.]Sierra set her phone down and waited.Thankfully, when Kenneth said two minutes, he meant it and he came up soon after. Sierra did not stay any longer and left after a quick nod.Kenneth began to talk to John again. He looked at the man who had not said a word to make her stay. "Sometimes, I really can't tell whether you have a high or low emotional intelligence. If you had just acted a little weaker, Sierra would not have taken one look and left."John picked up the tablet again and went back to work."I'm serious." Kenneth pressed a hand over his. "Why don't you try the wounded gazelle gambit?""Get out." John had mostly recovered mentally by now. What remained was the damage this whole time had done to his body, and that still needed time to heal."I know what you're thinking, but things are different now. If you don't use pity to make Sierra feel bad for

    Robin glanced toward the hospital room and thought. He hoped his and Kenneth's plan would go well.When Sierra arrived that afternoon, John was sitting up in bed, scrolling through his tablet and handling work. The moment he saw her, he set it aside. His eyes were laid on her and did not move.Sierra sat in the chair beside him.John waited for a while, but when she still did not speak, he finally took the initiative. "What do you want for dinner tonight? I'll have Robin order it for takeaway.""It's fine." Sierra did not fall for it and ignored him. "I'm only staying for half an hour, then I'm leaving. I still have things to do at home.""Work?" John asked."Yeah." Sierra nodded."Let me help you, then," John offered.Sierra refused without the slightest change in expression. "I can handle it myself. Just focus on getting better.""You..." John had only said one word when Sierra's phone rang.She glanced at it, then took her phone and stepped aside to answer. Even without he

    Sierra stayed in the master bedroom for a while, her thoughts drifting back to John's life now. Ever since she had known him, there were always several people taking care of his daily needs. Mr. Rogers, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Lewis, and several other servants as well as private chefs for the major cuisines.He was used to villas and estates surrounded by flowers and greenery. To him, all that green meant life.So why was he living in an apartment now?It could not be about money. What he made in a month was enough to buy a whole villa.As she thought about it, she took out her phone to look something up. Before she could open the browser, she saw a message from Kenneth. [Are you free this afternoon?]Her fingers tapped on the phone. [I am, but not for long.]She still had to review the projects in Jade City and the neighboring city. If she had time, she would write two bid proposals for the tenders. If she got too busy, she would only do one.Kenneth quickly sent a voice message.

    "Don't let your pity make you forget everything that happened before," Marcus added when he saw Sierra looking at him with a confused look.Sierra looked at him, even more curious. "So… Who hurt you?""I'm still single to this day. No one has ever hurt me," Marcus said."Then where did all this experience come from?" Sierra asked."A real master prepares in advance before trouble comes knocking," Marcus said in the same rigid tone as always. "I have read books and watched shows. I have also summed up the experiences of countless people."Sierra blinked at him a few more times.Marcus asked, "If I were a husband, what score would you give me?""I don't know." Sierra answered honestly instead of making assumptions. "I'm not your wife, so I can't score you.""Then imagine I'm your husband." Marcus seemed unusually stubborn about it. "What score would I get?"Sierra looked at him suspiciously. "Do you have a woman you like?"Marcus said nothing.Sierra made a bold guess. "Or a m

    John stopped in front of Sierra and said, "Go back to Campanile Estate and wait for me. Once I have the full picture, I'll come talk to you.""Okay." Sierra didn't argue.John added, "I've already had Grant pick Tommy up, so don't worry."Sierra nodded. "Alright."John grunted in acknowledgment,

    "No," the manager replied to her with a good attitude."You'll know when you get there," Leona said, cutting off everyone else before they could start gossiping. "Maybe he wants you to keep an eye on us for the next few days since the director and Jenny are not here.""Alright." Gratitude appeared

    That night, John had dinner with Sierra and Tommy. As John watched Sierra and Tommy quietly put food into each other's plates, he felt like the old days had briefly come back."Ms. Bell, is this yours?" Grant suddenly lifted a folder.Sierra followed the sound of his voice, stood up at once, and w

    Mr. Gold from the games division eagerly hosted John, fully aware he was dealing with his direct superior. "This way, Mr. Henderson. Your seat is here. Mr. Robin's, too."John nodded, glanced at Sierra, and sent her a message on his phone. [Want to sit next to me?]Sierra replied immediately. [No
