Alle Kapitel von Regrets Come Too Late: Kapitel 401 – Kapitel 410

Sierra stepped out of the car, her chest tight as she stared at the open front door.She still had no idea whether John was out of danger even now."You're back?" Lucy came out from inside, looking at Sierra the same way she always did. "Kenneth told me what happened at the hotel. Were you scared?"Sierra looked at her, a mix of emotions inside her.Lucy walked up to her and pulled a strand of hair back. "What is it?"Sierra bit her lip. She waited for quite some time before saying, "Don't you guys...blame me?"They did not know the full story and what she and John had talked about. Normally, his friends would have come straight at her, saying that no matter how bad their fight got, she should never have picked up a knife, that she knew exactly how important John was, and that a lot of things would fall apart if something happened to him.Then they would have blamed her and decided it was all her fault.Lucy was wearing a faint smile, making others who saw her feel relaxed. "No

By the time the two of them finished talking, it was already noon.Anna sent a message saying she wouldn't be home for lunch, so Sierra only ordered food for herself, Lucy, and Tommy.They had just finished eating when a message from Robin popped up on her phone. [Mr. John is out of danger now.]Sierra then told Lucy about it."No matter how maddening he was, he won't actually kill himself. At worst, he'll end up half-dead," Lucy said, sounding completely unsurprised. "His only goal is to win you back. Even when he loses it, he won't put himself under any real threat.""Was he like this before, too?" Sierra asked."In the past. He used to take it out on other people." Lucy remembered what happened in the past quite clearly. "Especially his parents."When she thought about John's ties with Danny and the others, Sierra didn't ask about it anymore. Still, the more she knew, the softer she would go with him. It was better to keep her heart cold for now.-Meanwhile, at the hospi

When Robin said John would cheer up after seeing her, Sierra kept her voice as cool as she could. "Not necessarily."Robin blinked. "Huh?"Kenneth echoed, "What?"They traded a look, having a bad feeling about this. By then, the three of them were already inside John's room. The man on the bed was pale, his eyes closed as he lay motionless in sleep. Sierra's eyes went straight to his chest, where he stabbed himself."Sir," Robin stepped to the bedside and called softly. "Ms. Bell is here."John slowly opened his eyes. The eyes that were usually distant and cold had lost some of their iciness. There was now a hint of softness. When he saw her, something flickered in his gaze."I have something I want to say to him alone," Sierra said. She put the handbag on the bedside cabinet.She wore a simple dress today.John gave the other two a look.After Robin raised the bed for John, he slipped out with Kenneth. Once outside, they both traded another look.Kenneth started first, sta

A hint of gentleness touched Cyrus King's eyes as he looked at the confused Sierra. "You're Sierra Bell, correct?"Sierra didn't answer him. "And you are?""I'm your grandfather." As he spoke, Cyrus looked at her as if his gaze was looking at someone else through her. "Would you be willing to come back to the King residence with me so we can have a proper talk?""I don't have a grandfather. My mom's last name is Bell, not King," Sierra refused."Your grandmother's last name is Bell." Cyrus took a photograph from inside his jacket and handed it to her. "This was taken a long time ago. Why don't you see if that's your mother when she was young?"Sierra took it.Her mother was indeed in the photo."If you don't want to come back to the residence, we can find a quiet place across the street to have a chat," Cyrus said. He had a natural air of authority, but he subconsciously softened it when he was speaking to Sierra. "If not, we can go to your home."Sierra's brows furrowed. She a

"Give him," John said to Kenneth as his eyes were on Joey.Kenneth blinked. "Give what?"The answer was two small mangoes Robin took out seemingly from thin air.Joey glanced at them, still looking lazy and careless. "My, you really do hold a grudge."John's expression did not change. "They're right there. What you do with them is your choice.""Do what, exactly? If I want to calm my dear brother-in-law down, there's really only one option, isn't it?" Joey took both mangoes in hand, looking every bit the troublemaker.The male secretary who had come in with him frowned. "If you eat them, you'll die."Joey rolled the mangoes in his palm. "Well, it won't go that far. The worst case scenario is that I can't breathe."The secretary decided to say nothing after that."By the way, Skyler. This is my idea," Joey nodded at his secretary. "If something happens later, it has nothing to do with my brother-in-law. Don't get him into trouble, alright?"There was only helplessness in Skyle
