Regret Came Too Late

Grace's eyes instantly sparkled with excitement at the chance to talk about gossip.

This no longer seemed like a secret crush. This was clearly forced affection and blatant flirting!

While eating her bowl of chicken soup, she listened as Ethan continued explaining, "Damien always had a crush on Selene. She was very popular in high school and flirtatious with boys around her.

"She used to date many guys back then, but she never thought of dating her stepbrother, Damien. He watched the boyfriends around her come and go, and the fact that he was able to endure it until now is already very impressive."

Grace raised an eyebrow slightly. It was no wonder Damien was so excited when he saw Selene.

From the conversation earlier, it seemed that Selene had made the first move when Damien still had a crush on her, and they slept together afterward. But then she dumped him and started dating Vincent not long after the break-up.

Damien was the heir to Jensen Group, after all. There was no way he would let himself be played like that. That was also why rumors began to spread that he and Selene didn't get along, but in reality, it was just a tactic to get her attention.

But Selene didn't fall for his tricks and was quite good at staying composed under pressure. She managed to leave Jensen Group and build her own career while being in love with her boyfriend. Of course, Damien had a mental breakdown because of it.

Grace was overwhelmed with emotions when she tried to process all that information.

As she pushed Damien in the wheelchair out of the restaurant, her mind was still dazed. She couldn't help but ask.

"Is it really possible to hide your feelings for someone? Selene had lived with Damien for so many years; couldn't she tell how he felt?
