Regret Came Too Late

Tim couldn't be bothered with the act and turned back to the car.

Grace gripped the handlebar of the rental scooter, standing still as she watched the car drive away.

Inside, Ethan lowered his gaze to the documents in his hands.

Tim scoffed. "I checked into it. She's jealous again over Yancey and Alice. Looks like he's finally going to call off the engagement. Serves her right."

Ethan's fingers on the document froze for a moment after hearing this.

The last time Yancey had talked about breaking off the engagement, Grace had refused. Yancey had joked that if she jumped off a bridge, he'd reconsider it.

Right after he said those words, Grace jumped off the bridge into the river without hesitation. Although she was hospitalized for a month, her stunt kept her engaged.

And now Yancey wanted to break it off again...

Who knew what kind of stunt she would pull this time?

Grace wobbled her way back to her rental unit, frowning at the hundred-thousand- dollar debt hanging over her head because of the short trip. Lately, it felt like she was the epitome of misfortune.

Just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Joanne.

"Grace, aren't you short on cash? Want to come to Velvet Eclipse tonight?" she asked.
