Goodbye, Mr. Regret novel Chapter 594

“Magnanimous? Really?”

Timothy let out a helpless laugh. “I can’t be magnanimous.”

Love is selfish.

He could only accept a world where, in her heart, there was room for him and him alone.

Anyone else was unbearable.

“Don’t you get it? It’s this attitude of yours that pushed her further and further away. Even Yates understands this—you’re the only one who doesn’t.”

He understood.

He wanted to change.

But he couldn’t.

He couldn’t stand to see someone else in her eyes.

Couldn’t stand to see her smile at anyone else.

Couldn’t, couldn’t, couldn’t…

Too many things he couldn’t do.

Timothy’s voice was hoarse as he asked, “I know, but I can’t help it. Vince, tell me—what do I have to do? What will bring her back?”

He said Vince’s name so softly, so painfully, it lodged in Vince’s throat.

Still, Vince’s answer was firm, merciless. “She’s not coming back.”

“Let her go.”

“Sheila’s found her biological father. If she’s willing to go public, you and Jessica won’t have to pretend to be uncle and niece anymore—no one will stop you from being together.”

“As for Henry, if you don’t want him, I can talk to Jessy. She can bring Henry to live with her, give him a second chance.”

Timothy gave a short, bitter laugh. “What kind of twisted plan is that? Our family will never be split up! No one understands how much family means to me.”

It was Jessica who taught him that family could be warm, not cold and empty.

“I’m done arguing with you. You’re hopeless, Timothy. The family you want—that’s your dream, not Jessy’s. Even now, you still don’t see it? It’s too late. She’s not going to stand at the door of The Gilded Whisper Estates waiting for you to come home anymore. She’s not.”

Vince’s words hit like a bucket of ice water, drenching Timothy to the bone.

And finally waking him up.

He remembered—no matter how late he came home, she’d always be there, eyes bright with laughter.

She’d wait at the door with his slippers.

Sometimes, if he was very late, she’d fall asleep waiting.

But that stopped. He no longer saw her waiting.
