Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 593

I turned around and saw Gregory striding in.

He had an icy aura, unusually dressed in a suit and tie, the latter loosely undone, a rare sight for him.

It looked like he had rushed over from the Ford Group.

My panic and desperation dissipated at the sight of him, and I let out a long sigh of relief.

Gregory came over and embraced me, not saying a word of comfort, but his hand gently soothed my back.

Then, his gaze shifted coldly towards Pearl, "I didn't come looking for trouble, but it seems you've invited it upon yourself."

He was usually laid back, rarely speaking in such a manner.

Even though he was trying to control his emotions, I could feel the raging anger within him.

I knew, he was doing this for me.

"You've got the antidote, yet you never stopped harassing my daughter. Without taking drastic measures, how could you, Gregory, possibly show up to listen to me?" Pearl said, glancing behind Gregory at Dorothy, who was held by Lucius, looking unharmed but unconscious.

"What have you done to my daughter?"

Gregory nodded indifferently, his voice cool yet infuriating, "Whatever you did, I've done the same. Fair is fair."

"You-"

Gregory cut her off, "I'm not known for my patience. Don't think kidnapping Ramona will intimidate me. Your daughter is here, now let Ramona go." Pearl was afraid of Gregory, but she had to achieve her goal now that things had come this far.

"Just exchanging hostages isn't enough, I want the Myers family fortune too."

Gregory's lips pressed tightly together.

Feeling his emotions, I gripped his hand tighter.

Gregory reassured me with a squeeze, then coldly said, "You're quite the dutiful son, watching your own mother suffer like this."

I was confused.

Following Gregory's gaze, I saw Victor, who was supposed to be seriously injured, standing up, held by Gregory's men.

"How did he..."

Realizing I had been deceived, I was furious, "Ramona hurried over without even changing her shoes, signing the surgery consent form in panic fearing you might die if she was a moment late. And you were deceiving her?!"

Victor's eyes showed pain, "If it weren't for you coaxing her into handing over the Myers family to you, I wouldn't have had to do this. She was fine before you came back. Look at all she's suffered since!"

"The one who should be reflecting is you. You always say you want to take good care of Ramona,

live well, but what happened She

still suffered."

It was audacious of him to even play the victim.

Sometimes, I wondered if Ramona's suffering was because of my return.

But Victor was the last person qualified to criticize me.

I glared at him coldly, "Victor, you're neither fit to be a father nor a son. You don't deserve to be Ramona's son!"

"I thought you were just foolish, but you lack humanity, allowing Pearl to poison Ramona and now scheming with her against her!"

Victor's gaze shifted, guilt apparent, his resolve wavering.

Pearl suddenly spoke up, "Victor, if you back down now, the Myers family will completely belong to Jane."

"You heard her, the property agreement has been signed!"

His indecision vanished instantly, and he looked at me with gritted teeth, "Give me the Myers family, and we'll have nothing to do with each other!" As if it was that easy.

After everything they did to Ramona, how could we just let it all slide?
