Do Your Best To Regret It Novels & Stories

“ I thought that I would let you be and keep to myself but I realise now that it was a mistake. I should have confronted you about the welcome party you threw for her when you said you were going to attend a gala. I was an idiot for believing whatever you say. In a sense, this is my fault. I didn't even mention that I wasn't feeling well and I missed my parents. In case you forgot, my parents died. They have been gone for a long time and this is where they are buried. That is why I came here to visit them. I'm not some crazy stalker like you think but yeah, you can think whatever. I don't care anymore. You can continue taking care of Anna. She matters more to you than I do.” I lost my compos

Her face turned completely pale. I continued calmly, "You said the greatest regret of your life was not being able to marry him, so I decided to help you fix that regret. I met with Vince and told him I was willing to step aside. As long as you could stand in front of everyone and say 'I do,' I would back out completely."

She whispered: “Mommy, why does that man's face look so red?” I smoothed her damp hair back. “Because he threw away the best thing he ever had, and now it's too late for regrets.” The red in Dante's face went toward purple. Humiliated by a civilian in front of everyone. Exposed by a five-year-old. Whatever was left of his dignity crumbled. “Mia. Don't push me.” He stepped forward fast, hand reaching for my arm. “A Moretti woman doesn't just leave for whoever she—” His hand didn't reach me.

"You look worse." Something in his face shifted, not a smile exactly, but the precursor of one. It was the specific expression she remembered from before he'd become an Alpha. When he was still the person who laughed easily and didn't yet know what authority cost. She registered the memory of that person and registered that registering it hurt in a way that had nothing to do with the rejection ceremony and everything to do with time. "I'm trying to figure out," he said carefully, "how to say I'm sorry in a way that isn't completely inadequate."

Yet no matter how hard he tried, the pain only grew more suffocating. In the end, all he could do was look at Elena with complete resignation. “Don’t worry, Elena. I will never burden you or make any part of the process difficult,” Charlie replied softly. Regret was unmistakable in his eyes. “Tomorrow afternoon, I will return Leo to you... completely. And...” Charlie abruptly stopped speaking. His throat felt tight and stiff. He could not bring himself to finish the sentence. Charlie lowered his head deeply, hiding the sorrow beginning to well up in his eyes while simultaneously struggling to control the storm of emotions tearing through his chest.

He climbs slowly to his feet, grunting as he stretches out his back, before reaching down to pick up my plate. “Do you ever regret it?” I can’t help but ask, though I’m not even sure what I want to know. Regret life? Regret logging? He seems to understand what I mean though, as he smiles gently. “Nothing in life is ever worth regretting. You see, Lena, regret is like mold. You can scrub and scrub until it’s out of sight, but it always comes back if you let things get damp again. So, I try not to let life get damp.”

But then, he stubbornly said, "I can live without the company. I just want you back. I'd give up anything to be with you." Sasha's lips curled into a derisive smile. She lifted her cold gaze and said, "I know you, Aidan. Even if I walked away with you today, you'd regret it ten years from now. You'd tell me, 'Sasha, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be so broke.'" "You're just a selfish businessman, Aidan. You're always calculating what you can gain and what you might lose. Why bother pretending you're some lovesick fool? I know you better than you think."

“What are you really trying to do?” I felt a regret at how I had given in to the fire he had lit inside me. I couldn’t take back the truth that I had been corrupted by his charm.. . He’s just in his usual black tux, but he’s hot like hell. And he turned on the shit out of me! “I just want to remind you who we were before, and who we could’ve been now."

he said, gesturing with his hand. The three of us sat on the floor in front of him. He was smiling at us. I didn’t know what he was going to say next, but let’s hear it. “First of all, don’t get nervous. It’s not like the world is ending today even if we don’t win. No one is pressuring you. Just do your best. Never think that you can’t do it, because in the future you should be able to say that you gave your best, it was just that you didn’t have the talent at the time. Don’t do anything that will make you think later that you should have tried harder. At least you must not have any regrets. Never do something that will make you regret it later.”

Rуаn рlеаdеd, muсh tо mу annoyance. “Were being the operative wоrd, it саn’t bе undone. I think іt’ѕ best fоr bоth of uѕ that wе hаvе ѕоmе tіmе аwау frоm еасh оthеr.” “You’ll rеgrеt this, Iz. Yоu ѕhоuldn’t allow thіngѕ lіkе thіѕ to come bеtwееn уоu.”
