All Chapters of Regrets Come Too Late: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

She was wondering why Kenneth, who was supposed to be humble and polite with a good reputation, seemed so different from the rumors."Why?" She couldn't exactly comprehend it.John's gaze was cold, as if he were looking at someone insignificant with his harsh words. "Just look at how clueless you can get without me. The truth is that there's no end to how clueless you can get.""You know better than anyone else if I'm clueless or you're just being a scum," Sierra shot back as she met his eyes. It was the first time that she clearly separated the two of them. "If you didn't meddle in my life, none of this would have happened."The mood around John grew even heavier, his expression dark.Sierra took her phone back from Kenneth and threw John one last sentence. "If you are man enough, just live your life with Pamela and stop bothering me."She left with Holly without another word.Once only John and Kenneth were left in the bathroom, the air felt stuffy, like standing in the

Holly pulled out her phone, wanting to transfer the money to Sierra. Her cards were frozen, but she still had some funds left on her shopping apps and digital wallets.Sierra stopped her."The most important thing we need to do is use this money to save your mother's life," Holly said.She didn't care about anything else. If John was going to stop her, let him."It's fine." Sierra already had a plan in mind. "I've got a plan."Holly was immediately alerted. "What plan? Don't tell me you're going back to John? If that's your plan, you might as well let him come after me instead!""Not him. John's older brother Solomon." Sierra was reminded by Holly's earlier comment about enemies. "He won't say no to purchasing something worth more than ten million for one million. Since John warned everyone not to buy it, his brother will only be more inclined to defy him.""But his brother isn't exactly some harmless man." Holly had not met him, but she had heard enough. "If you make a deal wit

Sierra tried to push for a better price as she negotiated with the men Kenneth sent. "One hundred thousand.""You should know this ring is useless to our boss." The man stayed in character, his tone cold and flat. "He's only buying this to cause Mr. John some trouble.""If you want to get him, a hundred thousand is even better," Sierra answered.The man stood up as if he were about to leave. "Looks like you're not really interested in the trade, Ms. Bell.""Fine, sixty thousand." Sierra stopped him, tightening her grip on the ring box. "Transfer the money now."He agreed without hesitation.Once the fund transfer was done, Sierra would give up the ring. The moment the transfer was done, Sierra handed the ring over to the man.It was at this time that she knew these men were not Solomon's men at all. His people would never just buy the ring and walk away. They would offer advice and discuss working together.A man like Solomon would never pass up a chance to get at John.But

"Well?" Pamela asked Sierra in the hospital hallway.Sierra knew the buyer was never giving that ring back, so she didn't bother arguing and answered Pamela calmly. "You really like the things I discarded?" Pamela could barely swallow the insult, but she forced it down and said, "You're still acting tough at a time like this? Believe it or not, I can make John throw your mother out of this hospital with one word."Sierra didn't even look at Pamela and walked right past her. She understood John better than Pamela ever would."You're not John's wife anymore. Why are you still acting so arrogant?" Pamela grabbed Sierra's arm and pulled her back. "Don't forget, John has already kicked you out and erased every bit of access you had to that house.""And?" Sierra felt nothing. She had stopped caring about that long ago.Pamela's words were caught in her throat.And...?"That doesn't change the fact that you have broken the habit of picking up things I left behind," Sierra said, her

Sierra turned her head away. She was in no mood to deal with both John and Pamela anymore. She forced down the feeling of being glared at and steadied herself before turning back to Dr. Smith. "Doctor, let's continue."Dr. Smith gulped. It was really impossible to ignore the intense pressure coming from his boss.He was just about to suggest she come back later when John said, "Dr. Smith.""Yes, Mr. Henderson." Dr. Smith answered at once."From now on, you're no longer in charge of Sierra's mother." John's words were directed at Dr. Smith, but his dark eyes stayed on Sierra. "Transfer her case to someone else."Dr. Smith instinctively glanced at Sierra.Sierra's heart tightened, and her protest came out without thinking. "Dr. Smith has been treating my mom from the beginning. Why are you replacing him with someone else?"Dr. Smith had always been the one to take care of her mom since the accident some years ago. He had been there, from all the daily checks to the sudden need f
