Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 77

Yancey's lips curled slightly before he pulled Alice into his arms like he was showing off.

"Alice, get in first."

Alice slid into the front passenger seat, and Yancey even leaned in to fasten her seatbelt for her.

After shutting the door, he turned to Grace and jerked his chin toward the back seat. "Get in already. Don't keep my mom waiting."

Grace didn't even acknowledge him. She pulled out her phone, called a car repair service, and requested a tire replacement. Then, without a word, she walked off toward the main road to hail a cab.

Yancey stiffened when he saw her ignore his car, and he attempted to chase after her. But before he could say anything, Alice rolled down the window.

"Yancey..." she called softly.

That single word stopped him in his tracks.

He hesitated, then suddenly realized that Grace was throwing a fit. She must have been upset because Alice was sitting in the front passenger seat.

Grace had once said that only she could sit in the front passenger seat. But after Alice came into the picture, that rule had been completely erased.

Yancey clenched his jaw, got into the car, and slammed the door shut. Frustration burned in his chest as he floored the gas pedal.

As he sped past, his gaze involuntarily flickered to the side, catching sight of Grace standing at the curb, waiting for a cab. He couldn't help but stare at her as his grip tightened on the phone.

Beside him, Alice's face twisted with irritation. She pressed her lips together and hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Yancey, maybe we should pick her up. Otherwise, it might be hard to explain things to your mom later."
