Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 657



I was at my breaking point.

There were kids to think about, and after breakfast, it was straight to bed for me.

Gregory had collapsed, Lucius was nursing an injury, and Dailey had been on watch for two days straight. The backlog at Ford Group and SZ Technology was piling up.

I had to step in and help sort things out.

Before leaving, I wanted to have a word with Christine, but she just sat on the couch, scrolling through her phone, completely ignoring me.

It wasn't the right time for a heart-to-heart.

I'd wait.

I dreamt of Grandma again.

She must be worried about me, visiting my dreams so often.

"Lily, life's journey is all about experiencing birth, aging, illness, and death."

"I'm glad, my dear, that I got to spend some time with you, to share this bond, while I was still alive."

"I had thought I might never see you again in this lifetime."

I hugged her tightly.

"Grandma..."

I cried freely in her arms, not wanting to hear those words.

I didn't want to lose her, yet I had to accept that I already had. "Grandma."

I kept calling out to her, over and over.

"Grandma, can't you come back?"

I knew it was a vain hope.

But I still wished she could come back.

Grandma stroked my back, speaking softly, "Lily, you need to live well."

"I'm waiting to be called 'great-grandma.' You promised me, so you can't break your word."

"I can't always come to see you, and you shouldn't dwell too much on missing me."

"You're my granddaughter, but you will also be Gregory's wife, the mother of your children. Let me reside in the deepest corner of your heart, and save the rest for them."

"Be brave, don't let sorrow consume you because of me."

I sensed Grandma was about to leave, and I clung to her.

But she still faded away from my embrace.

"Mr. Abdul, is Jane okay?"

Christine looked worried.

Jane had been sleeping soundly but suddenly started crying, now she's trembling.

Gregory, his anesthesia worn off, woke up and insisted on staying by her side, despite his condition.

Christine was beside herself with worry.

Mr. Abdul, trying not to alarm them further, said, "It was a nightmare."Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"It's expected, considering her Grandma just passed away."

Gregory suddenly spoke, as if making a tough decision.

"Mr. Abdul, about this child, we can't..."

"Gregory,"

I woke up just in time to stop him, "This child is ours, you can't decide this alone."

I sat up, gripping his arm as he adjusted my pillows.

I touched his forehead, "As for you, how can you not rest properly?"

How could Gregory rest when he was so worried? "Jane, this child..." "Keep her."

I placed his hand on my belly, "I will definitely keep her. Don't speak

Gregory's lips were a thin line, silent for a long while before he tried to speak again.

I looked at Lucius, "Did you take care of that thing?"

"It's done."

Lucius immediately came over, handing me a small square box.

I opened it and took out a ring, sliding it onto Gregory's finger.

Gregory's brows knitted together, staring at the ring as if trying to bore a hole through it.

I handed him the other ring, "Will you put this on me?"

He was puzzled but did as I asked.

Our hands, with the rings, linked together, said, "Greg, I need to honor my grandmother's memory,

so we can't get married just yet. But with this, I'm making you a promise." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
