All Chapters of A Regret too Late: Chapter 331 - Chapter 340

Cameron stood up as well and walked beside Maria toward the villa.He couldn't help glancing at Maria's face. Ever since Scarlet had brought that message, she seemed distracted, her thoughts clearly somewhere else.As expected, that man could still affect her.If she had really let go, she wouldn't be so restless the moment she heard his name. If she no longer cared about Richard at all, her mood would be still right now, without a ripple. A faint disappointment brushed through Cameron's heart.He smiled and deliberately shifted the subject. "That piece you performed at the Royal Music Theatre… It's the one you composed after you won your very first award, isn't it?"Maria looked at him in surprise. "How did you know that? You can tell just by listening?""No. I just wanted to tell you a story," Cameron said with a smile. "Back then, I had just returned from studying abroad. My family wanted me to manage the company and marry into another wealthy family. They arranged a blind d

Willow realized Jonathan had a very strange talent. He could always get what he wanted with his quiet, innocent act.Willow's study had always been strictly off limits for everyone. Even Maria had to knock and wait for his permission before going in. Yet somehow, Jonathan had moved in at some point and started doing his homework right beside him.The worst part was that Willow didn't feel annoyed at all. He couldn't even bring himself to tell the boy to leave.He drew in a long breath. For him to go soft over a child like this, he really must be getting old and ready to start a family.He grabbed Jonathan by the collar and hauled the boy to the door. "I'll hire a tutor for you tomorrow. One online and one in person. I refuse to believe you can't finish your homework after that. Stop bothering me!"With that, Willow shut the door on Jonathan without mercy.Jonathan pursed his lips together, clearly disappointed. Since he had no way to stay in the study any longer, he had no ch

Trent knew he couldn't stop Richard. Doing so would be no different from killing the man.He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and then slowly said, "I really don't know how to talk you out of this. Since you're determined to take the risk, I'll arrange a few professional swimmers to escort you."Richard gave a slight nod. "I'll leave that to you."Trent looked at Richard for a long moment, then left. Before he reached the door, Richard called him. "Trent." Richard's voice was quiet and steady. "I know it has been difficult for you lately. Other than Jonathan and me, you're the only one who truly repented after hurting Maria."Trent turned back with a bitter smile. "Why bring that up now?""I just want you to know that if anything happens to me this time, the company will be yours. All I ask is that you set aside enough money for Jonathan to live. I'll feel comfortable if you hold it." He said it almost casually, as if the moment he decided to go after Maria, he had alr

Cameron heaved a sigh of relief at Maria's explanation and sat down, pouring her a glass of milk.Maria took a few sips and looked around. "Scarlet would already be up usually by now.""I am," Scarlet answered from the doorway as she came in, yawning, sitting down next to the table. "I was up early checking the satellite feed. The patrol team Mr. Lane arranged also reported in. They picked up a drone signal out there today."She was out and about since early in the morning, and she was exhausted.A flicker of surprise passed over Maria's eyes. "A drone signal?" She hesitated. "Why would there be a drone? Is someone getting close or trying to scout the area?"Scarlet waved it off. "No, no. It is probably just some drone filming the scenery. Tourists and backpackers nowadays love to explore random coastlines, don't they? There's no way anyone could pin this place down so accurately."Maria's expression didn't ease.Cameron smiled. "The drone signal only showed up for a moment. E

Cameron walked toward the high reef with a slight frown, stepping carefully through the shallow water. He had never actually seen a sea lion before, so he was a little anxious as he moved toward the red-stained seawater.Then, a pair of human legs suddenly came into view.Cameron took a deep breath when he saw the legs. His shock was obvious.Hearing the change in Cameron's breathing, Maria immediately asked, "What is it? Did something happen?"Cameron hesitated for a moment, not sure how to describe what he was seeing. He let out a slow breath and said quietly, "It's not an animal. It's a person. It looks like he swam over here on purpose. Come and see if you recognize him?"Maria traded a quick glance with Scarlet, then they hurried over.Behind the reef, a man in a torn swimsuit lay half sprawled on the rocks, his whole body soaked, and his arm still bleeding.The two women looked at each other. Maria asked, "Do you know him?"Scarlet shook her head. "Do you?""I don't. I'v
