A Regret too Late のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 271 - チャプター 280

Willow tightened his grip on Richard's shoulder and warned him, "I'm warning you. Back off from Marina. Don't bring some random person over here to disturb her again."Richard looked at him with a faint smile as he looked at Willow. "I'm not bothering her. My son is here, so I brought Jonathan over for dinner. Is that really worth getting so agitated?"Willow grew even angrier and moved to swing his fist at him, but Maria stepped in front of him. "Mr. Brooks, what are you doing? Stop. The boy is still watching."Willow gritted his teeth, glaring hard at Richard before finally looking away. He gave a cold laugh. "Fine. Just don't let me see that boy here again. If I do, I'll do everything I can to send him back to Sidonia. Got it?"Richard's hand tightened into a fist, but he said nothing."Marina isn't anyone's replacement, and she's not some vessel. If you keep bothering her like this, I won't hold back next time," Willow said, voice low and sharp. Part of him wanted to get r

Maria's voice when she was talking about Jonathan was thick with disgust.Willow gave her a small nod, then looked at Maria in the eyes with an aching heart. "Since you're not going to budge, then leave that kid outside. He's betting that you'll feel sorry for him. Don't let him in."Maria nodded. "I know, Will. Speaking of which, you should go. It won't be easy for you to explain why you're here so late. Ask Hector to come over."Willow glanced toward the door, forcing down his irritation, and nodded. "Alright, I understand. I'll call him here right now. Don't get worried and don't get angry. This can be handled easily. Just ignore the kid."Maria gave an uncaring little smile and said calmly, "There's nothing for me to worry about. Just have Hector come over. Relax, Will. I loathe that boy even more than you do. I won't relent."Only then did Willow truly relax. He sighed and left.Once he was gone, Maria went upstairs to take care of her own things.It wasn't long before he

Did Jonathan fall unconscious from hypothermia?Maria's hands turned into fists. After a long struggle, she finally decided to go over and look.She wouldn't be able to really turn a blind eye even when a stray cat or dog was at risk of freezing. Similarly, she wouldn't be able to ignore it happening to a living child.Maria went in and picked up the sofa blanket. She walked out and used the light from her phone to check on him. She saw that Jonathan's face was already ghostly white from the cold, his lips completely bloodless. She threw the blanket straight over him."If you aren't afraid of dying, then wrap yourself in that blanket and hurry back home. Stop being an eyesore out here. You're pulling this stunt to force me to take you in… You have quite the imagination!" Maria mumbled under her breath.Meanwhile, Jonathan slowly lifted his head at the sound of her voice. Before he could look at her, Maria turned and started walking back to her house. Suddenly, a small hand gra

Richard gave Trent a faint glance. "I had a feeling she wouldn't let him in. I just didn't expect her to be this resolute."Richard was beyond unnerved.What truly unnerved him was Maria's absolute, ruthless calm. Whether it was him or Jonathan, neither of them stirred the slightest ripple in her heart anymore.That was what he couldn't accept.He didn't fully understand how disappointed she had been in those dark days, but he understood that no matter what happened to him or the child now, Maria wasn't going to look back.There was no path to win her over again, and that terrified him more than anything.Seeing how rigid Richard's whole body had become, Trent slid his hands into his pockets and let out a helpless sigh."I think what you should be worrying about now is not that, but what happens when Jonathan wakes up and realizes Maria still doesn't want him. He's going to be very upset."Tren looked through the glass into the ward and saw that Jonathan was frowning even in hi

"Everything happened so suddenly, and I probably can't find anyone else willing to be a donor. I'm sorry to have bothered you. I'll think of something," Richard said.Then, he ended the call.Maria slowly tightened her hand on the phone, her mind in chaos.What Richard told her was a genuine piece of information. Cells from the mother really did lower the risk of rejection. She just didn't expect this to happen to Jonathan at this exact moment, when there was no way to find a willing donor in time.She frowned, torn for a long time, then finally let out a sigh.Forget it.This had nothing to do with her anymore.She had already cut all ties with Jonathan. Whatever happened to him in the future was no longer something she should care about.Maria blocked Richard's number so he couldn't call her again. Then, she took her cello to the studio to practice for tomorrow's competition.After several pieces, someone knocked on the studio door.When she saw Wyatt walk in, Maria raised
