บททั้งหมดของ Too Late to Regret: บทที่ 421 - บทที่ 430

Candice’s scalp tingled. She felt as if a female ghost was following them. She couldn't leave her back exposed to a ghost, so she turned around and shouted sharply, "Gabrielle!"Gabrielle stopped abruptly.Candice massaged her forehead, feeling a mix of palpitation and a strange urge to laugh at the fact that so many of them couldn't handle one simpleton. She pointed ahead and said to Kyle, "You guys walk in front."Since they couldn't shake them off, she at least wouldn't leave their backs to two people who carried a high risk factor.Kyle now regretted egging Gabrielle to come out. He was forced to soften his voice. "Gabrielle, Sister and Brother Charlie agreed to play together. Stop crying and let's go."He pulled her arm gently.Only then did Gabrielle stop crying. She walked forward a few steps, constantly looking back as if afraid Charlie would run away."Forget it, let's just finish the walk and head inside," Old Mrs. Law

After Rosie’s passing, the one hit hardest was Mrs. Harrison. She had suffered through several severe bouts of illness, and her health had completely collapsed."I’m very happy to meet you, too," Candice replied gently.These words acted as a soothing balm to Mrs. Harrison’s heart. It was as if a ray of light had finally pierced through the dark years of a mother drowning in grief, unable to move on from the past."I’m happy, so happy. Grandma is happy too." Mrs. Harrison raised a hand to stroke her granddaughter’s face, as if seeing her own daughter through the girl’s features.Colin and Iris stepped forward to support the old lady."Alright, Mom, let's stop crying," Iris said, wiping her mother-in-law’s tears. "You’re making Candice feel shy.""That’s right, we’ll have plenty of time from now on," Colin added, comforting his mother while ushering the Clemens family inside.

Candice: "..."She had attempted to steer their relationship back to its original track.She failed.Hah, typical.Regarding the child and their future, she had previously agreed to give birth under his subtle, relentless brainwashing. She had even dug a hole for herself by agreeing to sign a contract as proof. However, due to the poisoned needle incident at Bianca’s house, he had been so frantic to hide her away that the contract was sidelined. She had planned to act as if it were never mentioned, but now she wanted to use that very contract to remind him of their actual "progress."That progress bar could not simply be dragged all the way to "Marriage" in one go."Um—"She slid a bit further away on the sofa, adopting the serious, rigorous posture of a lead negotiator. "I think we shouldn't let external factors disrupt our plans.""Marriage..." She took a deep breath, holding it for a few seconds amidst her intern

When Jim had picked them up at the airport and saw Kyle disembarking from the same plane, he had been on the verge of saying something several times. However, seeing his Young Master’s grim expression, he decided it was best to keep his mouth shut. The entire group had returned in a heavy, stifling silence.Now, as they stepped out of the car, Kyle and Terry followed suit. When they entered the elevator, the other two stepped right in behind them.The elevator was instantly packed. Even though the building’s elevators were spacious, having this many people—all of whom were exceptionally tall—made the space feel incredibly cramped.Charlie knit his brows. Candice looked utterly done with the world."Kyle, couldn't you take the one next to this? Don't you think it's too crowded with all of us in here?" Sophia snapped, unable to take it anymore, while simultaneously positioning herself as a human shield to stop him from getting closer

Candice’s expression stiffened.After a long pause, she muttered a silent curse in her head: ...Damn it!It really was true—one false move could lead to a lifetime of regret. She had let her guard down just that one time to ask him for a favor, and now it had become a permanent piece of leverage against her.Seeing Candice falter, even Sophia began to lose her nerve. If even her best friend was wavering, the others were naturally even more suspicious. It wasn't exactly unheard of for a couple divorced for less than six months to rekindle an old flame and start meeting in secret.The others wanted to check Charlie’s reaction, but as curious as they were, they didn't dare look. At the same time, they were sweating bullets on Candice's behalf.Charlie’s expression at this moment was not much different from before, though he had grown even more silent, standing as still as a perfect marble statue."Kyle, I simply asked yo
