Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 695



Clarence had just dropped Nelly off and was now driving over to Christine's place.

Reaching the building, he called Christine, but she didn't pick up. Instead, she texted him back.

["Big bro, I'm asleep."]

However, the doorman told him that she had just left with a young guy, heading into the alley across the street.

Christine wasn't a celebrity by any means, but her outgoing nature and stunning looks meant she could strike up a conversation with anyone and definitely turned heads.

Having lived there for a while, she had become friendly with the doorman, often giving him small gifts or local delicacies during the holidays.

So, whenever a guy came looking for her, the doorman would inform her first instead of just letting him through.

Thinking Clarence was just another lovestruck guy who couldn't take a hint, the doorman mentioned that Christine had a boyfriend now - a younger, more handsome one at that.

It was no surprise someone as gorgeous as Christine had plenty of admirers.

"You shouldn't be out here in the cold," the doorman said, noting Clarence's luxury car and speaking with a polite tone. "Ms. Jackson isn't the type to be swayed by money alone, and she's doing quite well for herself. Love can't be forced, after all."

Taking the doorman's words to heart, Clarence sullenly returned to his car and pulled out his phone to message his friends in their group chat. ["I've been dumped."]

Without waiting for a reply, he continued to vent.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

["I can't stand how that guy keeps calling her 'Chris.' It's so cheesy. Knowing guys, he's definitely not good news - probably just after her good looks and her money."]

["And Christine is falling for it.

Clearly, I'm the better catch in every

way. What does that college kid

have over me besides being younger

and able to call her 'big sis'?"

["The guy's barely started acting and hasn't even finished college. Does he think he can make it big? He's only cozying up to Christine for her wealth and connections. Heck, she's tight with Bella, so throwing him a bone or two wouldn't be hard."] Content belongs to

["Ugh, they even went to a private cinema. What good can come of that, especially this late at night?"]

["Guys, I'm heartbroken... this really sucks..."]

Clarence wasn't new to airing his grievances in the group chat.

Gregory would respond when he had the patience, and Dailey would chip in when he felt like it.

But today, Gregory was busy.

Dailey, however, did notice the message his attention caught not by Clarence's heartbreak but by the mention of a private cinema. He was nearly home but decided to have his driver turn around...

Clarence waited for a response from his friends but got none. Restless, he couldn't help but send Christine another message.

["He's bad news, trust me. Men know these things. We've known each other too long for me not to warn you. If you're just looking for fun, he's the worst choice."]

When Christine first met Clarence, she knew he was interested in her. But to her, he was just another guy charmed by her looks, nothing serious. She wasn't overly conservative by any means, but at the time, her eyes were set on Dailey.

And lately, even though Clarence seemed to still be interested, she didn't want anything to do with someone close to Dailey.

Besides, Clarence lacked the charm that made Merritt so appealing to her.
