Lahat ng Kabanata ng Too Late for Regrets: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

However, Mavis only paused for a second before she continued walking out. She said coldly, "There's no need. We're not from the same world."As her words fell, she was gone. Silence quickly enveloped the room.Timothy narrowed his eyes at the three bundles of cash in front of him. After taking the last puff of his cigarette, he couldn't help but laugh. He found it absurd that Mavis had looked down on him.As the sole successor of Caelumis, the most powerful force in Efral, he had thousands of soldiers under his command. Furthermore, he possessed insane medical skills that most people would find unbelievable. Even the Spectral Healer, who was revered throughout Efral, was the least capable of his twelve apprentices.As for his wealth, he wasn't sure how much money he had. His assets across Efral probably totaled up to trillions of dollars.Countless women pursued him. A few days ago, even Efral's Four Greatest Families wanted him to take their granddaughters as his lovers.Howev

At the gate of the small courtyard, several people came into view. Timothy looked over and saw that the person in front was a woman. A few men followed her closely.The woman was tall and slender, with delicate features and an outstanding bearing. She would be a standout beauty in any crowd. However, she wore an exceptionally cold expression on her pretty face.Timothy smiled lightly. It seemed Remy hadn't tricked him. She was indeed a top-notch beauty.Upon entering the courtyard, the woman stood in the center and surveyed her surroundings. Her gaze lingered on the pile of trash in the corner, and she frowned.Joseph and Cora were stunned at the sight of her. They had never expected their daughter-in-law to be so beautiful and elegant.Overjoyed and tongue-tied, Cora exclaimed, "Timothy, is this the young lady you're engaged to? She's so gorgeous! I can't believe my daughter-in-law is so stunning."Joseph was equally pleased. He added, "Good job! You've really brought honor to o

Timothy's chest constricted as he looked at Mavis. How could it be her? She had a one-night stand with him, and she even told him to get out of her face a couple of hours ago. How could she be the woman in a marriage agreement with him? Timothy couldn't believe such a coincidence could happen. What shocked him more was Mavis' agreement to marry him. Mavis deeply despised him, so she should have wanted to cancel the marriage agreement more than anyone else.In the meantime, Mavis stood opposite Timothy in silence, staring at him with a complicated gaze. She didn't know why she had agreed to the arranged marriage, either.Perhaps it was because she felt bad for Timothy since she overheard many people humiliating him when she was in the yard. She convinced herself that was the case. Other than doing it out of pity, Mavis couldn't think of another explanation.She couldn't possibly have fallen in love with Timothy after their one-night stand, right?No, that was impossible. She

Timothy pressed his lips together before saying, "Is ten billion a lot? It's not that difficult to earn it."Mavis frowned deeply. "You've officially lost your mind, Timothy! Who do you think you are? Do you think you're Zack Larson, the richest man in Lormford City? How dare you mention ten billion with such ease? Are you stuck in a daydream?""Zack Larson?" Timothy pressed his lips together and didn't seem bothered. "Zack's just a subordinate of one of my men.""How dare you—" Mavis was so furious that flames almost spouted from her eyes. She couldn't believe such a thick-skinned liar could exist.Joseph and Cora quiveringly stood and gazed at Timothy with bitter expressions. Their son had mentioned ten billion dollars several times with ease and even claimed Zack was his subordinate. That alarmed Joseph and Cora into a state of speechlessness.Cora tugged at Timothy's arm, nagging with concern, "Son, our family may be poor, but we must remain honest! Are you trying to give your

The atmosphere was tense as all eyes focused on Timothy. A deadly silence filled the living room just then. Patrick and Fiona were shaken to their cores. They believed their future son-in-law had to be a prominent figure. How could it be the man before them, who wore tattered clothing like a poor man from the streets?Fiona's features contorted as she pointed at Timothy. "Are you sure you're not messing with me, Mav? I-Isn't he a beggar? How can he be your fiancé?"Mavis fell into a grim silence, not knowing how to respond.Meanwhile, Hugh awkwardly clambered onto his feet. His face had purplish bruises and swollen spots. On top of that, he appeared to be in a foul mood.Patrick rushed over to help support Hugh. He flashed a stiff smile and said, "Hugh, what happened earlier was… a misunderstanding."Hugh wiped the blood from his nostrils. He then glowered at Timothy, inhaled deeply, and said to Mavis. "Is this really your fiancé, Mavis?"Mavis bit her lip, her head hanging low
