Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 703



After wrapping up a long meeting, Gregory flicked on his phone only to find a message from Dailey waiting for him. But another notification quickly caught his eye.

There was a hierarchy to these things, so without hesitation, he exited Dailey's chat to dive into the other.

Mrs. Ford: [Greg, Chris found us the perfect wedding venue~]

A wedding venue-Gregory had his own ideas about that.

But knowing Christine had poured her heart into it, and that his wife-to-be would love it, he decided to go along.

He replied to his fiancée first: [In that case, Mrs. Jane, when can we swing by the city hall?]

Only after sending that did he bother to reply to Dailey: [Getting married now. You gonna show up in your hospital gown or what?]

Dailey shot back instantly: [Dare you to do it now. I'll crawl there if I have to.]

Crazy.

Gregory ignored that, opening the top message again.

Mrs. Ford: [Anytime works for me. It's all about Mr. Ford's busy schedule now.]

Gregory was so excited he nearly dropped his phone.

Lucius came in to report, only to see Gregory storm past him, a man on a mission.

He didn't even give Lucius a chance to speak, disappearing from view in an instant. What urgent matter could this be?

Concerned, Lucius hurried after him.

Down in the parking garage, all he saw was the tail end of a car.

And there was still a meeting to attend!

He tried calling Gregory.

No answer-just a text.

[Clear my schedule for today.]

Lucius: "..."

...

Elmwood Villas.

After texting Gregory, I went to play with the kids, never imagining Gregory would ditch a mountain of work to come back.

Marriage was already a done deal between us.

Wedding first, license after—it made no difference to us.

But I hadn't expected him to be so impatient.

Driving to city hall, I hadn't even fully grasped the situation.

"Shouldn't we pick a day?"

Clutching the necessary documents, I was excited and nervous.

"There's no holiday coming up, but we should at least check the

calendar, right? Just in case it'el

unlucky day for this." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Not that I was superstitious, but getting a marriage license felt Significant. Maybe we should find an day? Content belongs to

Gregory glanced at me at a red light, silent.

When the light turned green, he kept his eyes on the road and drove on.

Seeing he had no comment, I pulled out my phone to check myself.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

But before I could, a hand with distinctly articulated bones snatched it away. "What the heck?"

"The more you look up that stuff, the more nervous I get."

I couldn't help but tease, "So, our wild and free Mr. Ford gets nervous too?"

Gregory tossed the phone aside and took my hand in his.

His usually dry hands felt slightly damp.

I squeezed his hand back, a silent reassurance.

We remained silent the rest of the drive.

It wasn't until we pulled up to city hall that Gregory finally turned to me.

His brown eyes were deep, filled with warmth that could drown you.

"Jane, I can't wait any longer, not even for a second."

"If you're willing, then today is the perfect day to do this."

He had a point.

So, regardless of the day, whether it was deemed lucky or not, as long as we were willing, as long as we loved each other, we could overcome any obstacle. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
