Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 865

Dailey and Christine's relationship was kept under wraps. It was no surprise that the employees at the corporation were unaware.

Without offering a response, Dailey took the phone from the reception desk. Serena stood beside him, silent, but their behavior was as good as a confirmation to onlookers. Someone even offered their congratulations.

Dailey paid no mind. He didn’t head upstairs; instead, he turned and left the building. This time, he didn’t even ride with Serena. The scent in her car was overwhelming, making him feel dizzy.

Serena trailed him into a nearby café. He didn’t go directly to Christine’s place, but Serena knew it was just a diversion. She wasn’t worried, though. After all, the Clarkson family would never approve of him being with Christine.

She figured she'd have some time to enjoy his company.

“Mr. Clarkson, are you really not considering my proposal?” she asked.

“Honestly, you might not find anyone else as accommodating as I am.”

“Marrying me would also be a great way to protect her. Our combined strength would deter any enemies.”

Dailey was nearly thirty, not a naïve child. Who was she kidding, thinking she could win him over?

Dailey remained silent. After a moment, Serena pressed on.

“Did you know she left Vista Town?”

A flicker of something crossed Dailey’s eyes, but he still didn’t speak. Serena noticed this slight change and smirked.

He was only pretending not to care.

“The Clarkson family knows where she is. She can’t hide from them, and you won’t be able to find her on your own. But I can arrange a meeting between you two.”

“I hope Mr. Clarkson will show some sincerity in return.”

Dailey’s expression was indifferent. “Sincerity? Marrying you?”

Serena coaxed, “Isn’t a win-win situation desirable?”
