Regret Came Too Late

Grace had no real reason to refuse Yancey's request. Even without her memories, she and Yancey went way back.

She went to the office first, telling some of the higher management to observe the Yule family deal. Now that the contract was signed and the project was starting, there'd be more to discuss.

She also needed to see Yasmine soon about signing some artists to make extra money for the company.

Upon returning downstairs, she saw that Yancey was still there.

She opened the car door, a little surprised. "What are you still doing here?"

"Jodie messed up your car, remember? It's still in the shop. I'll give you a ride back. I'm pretty free these days anyway."

Grace made no objections and entered the vehicle.

As they passed their former high school, Yancey initiated a conversation.

"Grace, the fact that you can't remember stuff from before kind of screws you over. Want me to tell you what things were like back in the day?"
