Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 304

Nature had its way of showing favor. Otherwise, why would Bryant flip his stance so fast, from marriage alliances to divorce papers flying?

And Dorothy was on the same wavelength as me. Even more confident, she lifted her chin, “Otherwise? I am far better than Jane, right?”

Shit! I got caught in the crossfire for no reason.

Thankfully, a servant hurried in soon after, announcing, “Lady Ramona, Miss Dorothy, Mrs. Myers has returned.”

Dorothy stood tall and proud, grabbed Bryant's arm, and couldn’t wait to complain to her mother.

All I could think was, ‘This is not the place to stay.’

One Dorothy was troublesome enough, let alone Susan adding to the mess. Sitting straight, I turned to Ramona, whispering, “Ramona, I need to head back to RiverCity today. I’ll visit you in Vista Town another time.”

Ramona seemed disappointed, but she didn’t say much, only asking me to follow the butler to fetch something, leaving Gregory to chat.

Gregory had just left the living room when I returned with the item. Walking over leisurely, he glanced at the jewelry box in my hand. “What did Ramona give you? Let me see.”

I didn't have the guts to open it in front of the butler. He just said it was a little something from Ramona. Upon seeing a gem bracelet inside, I quickly closed it, heading back to Ramona’s quarters. It was too valuable.

Gregory said, “Keep it.”
