All Chapters of Too Late to Regret: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Candice pointed to herself in shock. “...You want me to go?”A defenseless woman like her? He really wanted her to face some terrifying unknown creature?Was he serious?“Miss Hale, I’m scared.”That deep voice came with warm breath brushing against her cheek. His large hand on her shoulder tightened, as if gripped by fear.He was tall. And “helpless.”Candice: “...I’m scared too!”She shook off his hand and turned to flee.“Don’t run.”Charlie pulled her back and wrapped her tightly in his arms like she might bolt any second. His broad chest made her look even more petite, and his thin lips once again leaned close to her ear. “If you run off, what am I supposed to do? I’m counting on you to protect me.”Candice’s ears flushed red.She was on the verge of tears.Could someone please manage this lunat

The ultimate traitor, Sophia, sold her out in mere seconds—didn’t even ask for a reason.She might as well join Rex’s fan club at this point!In the restaurant.Candice had just finished ordering when Bianca arrived.As always, she was charming and sweet, every strand of hair meticulously styled. Her perfume filled the room with a floral aroma, making one feel as though they were transported to a blooming garden. What a scent.The two chatted as they ate.One moment, they were seriously discussing jewelry, and the next, Bianca suddenly shifted gears:“Did you see the pictures? Which one do you like best?”“... Cough, cough, cough—”Candice choked, coughing violently.Sis, could you not transition like that?!Bianca laughed at her reaction. “Oh, come on, don’t be so shy. We’re going to check them out in person later, so relax. Don’t act like you’ve never seen the world.”Candice took a sip of water and calmed herself. “Okay, I’ll relax.”“It’s only awkward the first time. After you buy

“What are we waiting for?”Charlie looked at her, puzzled.Candice’s heart was racing at 180 bpm, to the point it was affecting her ability to think and speak. She was afraid that if she didn’t say something now, something might really happen that would cause endless trouble later. But she was also afraid she’d mess it up with too many words. So she decided to go with the simplest and clearest approach.She took a deep breath and then braced herself.“…Can we do this without responsibilities?”Charlie narrowed his eyes slightly.Who said this woman was timid?She had guts—more than enough.After she spoke, he didn’t say a word. He just looked at her, silently, for so long that Candice felt like a whole century had passed. Long enough for mushrooms to grow on them both.“…Alright.”Finally, Charlie spoke, nodding seriously.&ldqu

“Jerry.”Her voice was soft as she called his name, her pretty, rosy cheeks tinged with an unnatural flush. “Your tie doesn’t really match your suit today… you might want to change it.”Jerry was momentarily distracted by her comment and looked down. “Really? It doesn’t? Then what color do you think would—”When he looked back up, she was already gone.He frowned in confusion. What’s up with Candice today? She’s acting weird.Candice returned to her office.As she was walking toward her chair, her high heel snagged slightly on the carpet, making her stumble and land crookedly in the chair.She stared blankly ahead.Jerry’s voice still echoed in her ears: “Jim made the president a full meal of aphrodisiacs.”So that means…Jim knew. Knew knew.She slumped backward in her chair, collapsing into it like a dead fis

Candice was utterly speechless.But since she was already here, what else could she do?She turned to Charlie and said in a formal subordinate tone, “President, why don’t you sit and watch some TV? I’ll go help out in the kitchen.”Charlie gave a mild, affable smile. “Candice, we’re off the clock.”Candice: “...!”The three people standing at the kitchen door: “...!”The air froze.Everyone looked like they’d been struck by lightning—shocked, stunned, confused.Thud—a potato slipped from Sophia’s hand and rolled across the floor.Jerry’s already swollen, teary eyes widened further, and another tear slipped down from the emotional overload.Rex… completely tore apart the Australian lobster he was holding.The atmosphere turned awkwardly bizarre.Candice felt like she was being roasted over a volcano.
