Regret Came Too Late

Ethan put down the document in his hand after a long pause. "Do you need me to remind you that I'm your elder?"

"So you do remember you're my elder? But were those really the kinds of things an elder should be saying to a junior last night? Don't worry, I've got it all recorded," Yancey retorted.

Ethan leaned back in his chair. "Stop acting foolish. Your wedding gift with Alice is on the way."

Ethan labeled all of Yancey's actions as childish and immature he was foolish overall.

Yancey's eyes went wide, and he bit his lip in frustration.

"Uncle Ethan, you've been eyeing Grace from the start, haven't you?"

Ethan didn't respond. Instead, he called in Tim to escort Yancey out.

As Yancey reached the base of Henderson Group's office building, he ran into Alice, who had come to find him.

Alice had been in a bad mood lately.

She had hoped to spend a romantic evening with Yancey, but he hadn't been around for two nights or even answered her calls.

"Yancey!" Her voice was tinged with tears as she quickly approached him. "Why aren't you answering my calls?"

Seeing her burst into tears only annoyed Yancey more.

His gaze frantically searched for Grace, wondering where she had gone.
