A Regret too Late のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 431 - チャプター 440

Jonathan winked at her with a teasing smile.Maria didn't expect Jonathan to accept her new life so calmly, including accepting the fact that she no longer loved Richard and that there was no reason for them to return together.For a moment, she couldn't tell what she was feeling. Of course, she couldn't give him an answer right away.When she thought about it carefully, what she felt for Cameron was mostly admiration and a sense of safety, as well as the feeling that he could give her a steady life. There was no flutter of excitement at all. She also had no idea what Cameron felt. If so many people married without love, then… What difference would it make if she were just another one of them?Maria was still lost in her thoughts when she felt Jonathan tug at her sleeve. She looked at him with a smile. "What's wrong?""We haven't heard from Dad in a long time. Is his treatment still not finished? Are there any results?" Jonathan asked as he looked up at Maria, looking at Maria

Cameron didn't want Maria to worry too, so he forced himself to ignore that uneasy feeling. With a nod and a smile, he went upstairs with her.They wandered through several stores. They didn't just buy heels, but also a few beautiful outfits.Cameron spent freely, buying several collections of jewelry for Maria. He even picked out pieces from Brooks Jewelry on purpose, just to show her that he could also support his future brother-in-law's business.They chatted and laughed. The thought of someone secretly watching them had slipped from their minds.Only when they walked out to the parking lot and were about to get into the car did they suddenly see someone.The moment she saw who it was, Maria stopped. She gritted her teeth, as if she didn't expect to run into Richard now.Richard's hands turned into fists. His face was dark as he stared at her. More precisely, he stared at Cameron standing beside her.Cameron sensed the danger at once and stepped in front of Maria. He asked co

Cameron continued to yell at Richard. "She suffered because of you! Now that she has chosen someone else and wants to try a different life, you still won't allow it. You call that love? All you really have is obsession, isn't it?"Richard froze when he heard this, complicated emotions in his eyes.Just when Cameron thought he had finally gotten through to him, Richard's lips twisted into a crooked smile. "Pursue her happiness? I'm the only one in this world who can make Maria happy! Who do you think you are, bragging that you can make her happy? You think you deserve to say that?"Maria couldn't stand it anymore and glared coldly at Richard. "That's enough! I'm getting engaged to Cameron, whether you like it or not! The only kindness I'm willing to give you is to push the engagement back for a few days so you have time to accept it. Nothing more! If you keep on causing trouble here, don't blame me for hiring bodyguards and not letting you come anywhere near me again!"When Ma

Hearing Richard say that, Trent remained silent for a long time before letting out another sigh. "I don't have any solution. I can't give you any real advice. I can only say that with how things are now, you won't be able to win Maria back no matter what you do."Richard lowered his head and stared at the floor. His expression kept shifting so much that no one could tell what he was thinking.Seeing this, Trent raised his brows. "You think I'm wrong. She was only going to push the engagement back two days at most because you couldn't emotionally handle it. You have no reason to go to her and try to stop her at all, unless you threaten her with your life. But from the way things look now, she probably doesn't care whether you live or die…"That last line hit Richard even harder.He closed his eyes and said in a muffled voice, "So between the two of us..."Trent shrugged. "From how it looks right now, this is the only ending you two will have. I'm not trying to tear you down, bu

Trent was holding his keys, about to leave the residence, when he saw Maria walk up to him. He froze for a moment and asked, "Why are you here so suddenly?"Urgency flashed in Maria's eyes. "I wanted to ask you where Richard is right now."Trent felt a little surprised when he saw that she was actually thinking about Richard. He quickly answered, "He should be at the hospital right now."Hearing that, Maria asked again. "Did my brother come here looking for him?"Trent shrugged. "I've been home the whole time. No one came to see him. Why? Is your brother looking for him?"Maria nodded, thinking for a moment. "They should have already met by now, and I'm getting worried. I want to see whether anything is happening at the company. You should come with me."Trent got into the car immediately and went with her. On the way, he kept glancing at the tension on Maria's face and couldn't help but smile. "Never thought I would see this."Maria frowned and turned her toward him. "See what
