Chapter 727 Stepping away wasn't about catching the fireworks show; it was about giving Jane and Gregory salone time.

And it just so happened that Christine was ready to call it a night too, feeling the toll of the day's adventures. "Hey, sis, wanna get a better view?" Christine, though not drunk, had certainly enjoyed her fair share of wine, making her thoughts a bit hazy. "How far can we see?" she inquired.

Merritt bent down, hoisting Christine onto his shoulders, giving her a boost.

Christine let out a surprised yelp, but once she found her balance, excitement took over, lighting up her face with a smile.

Tapping Merritt on the head, she shouted, "Let's kick it up a notch!" With a laugh, Merritt complied, striding forward confidently.

His height, combined with Christine's, made them stand out in the crowd, turning heads and even prompting sto snap photos with their phones.

Everyone seemed entertained by the sight.

Except for Dailey, whose expression darkened.

Nelly, noticing his mood, spoke softly, her voice tinged with envy, "Christine's got such a likable personality. I've gotten to know her better recently and really taken a liking to her." "And if even I feel this way, imagine how the guys feel." Dailey's frown deepened, looking as if he could squeeze water from a stone.

He responded tersely, "If neither you nor I can speak the truth, then who will?" Gregory hadn't mentioned it because he knew well what Dailey would do, and that nobody could stop him.

With Dailey's current standing, he didn't need to arrange marriages for power or influence.

If he decided she was the one, he would find a way to make her his regardless.

But Nelly had a point.

Christine's spirited, carefree nature could indeed be a disadvantage among the circles they moved in.

A single word could be twisted into multiple interpretations.

She might be smart and adept in her work, navigating social waters with ease.

Yet, ultimately, she would be like a canary in a golden cage.

Shining on the surface, yet profoundly sad.

"Let's go back and rest," he finally said.

Nelly hastened to keep pace with Dailey, walking beside him.

Entering the hotel and the elevator, it wasn't until then that she spoke again, "The truth can be uncomfortable, but I'm thinking of Christine too. We're both women, after all." "I really get where she's coming from. I think she might have pulled
