Goodbye, Mr. Regret

"All of this is just wishful thinking on your part. You might believe your relationship is something extraordinary, earth-shattering even, but honestly, it has absolutely nothing to do with me. I'm busy and have no interest in listening to your pointless drama."

Sheila watched her walk away, mind churning-was Jessica truly this indifferent, or was it just an act?

Jessica's cool expression certainly seemed genuine.

But Timothy was such a good man-could she really let him go so easily?

No matter how she tried to convince herself, Sheila still had doubts.

If Jessica was refusing to even talk to her alone, she clearly cared about what was going on between Sheila and Timothy.

As long as she and Timothy maintained their closeness, Jessica would never forgive him.
