NovelEnglishChapter 824 "But, Dailey..." Christine seemed to struggle to find the right words, pausing thoughtfully before continuing, "He's... different." Her smile was tinged with a hint of bitterness.
"It wasn't just because of Nelly that I broke up with him. It's also because I felt I didn't have the courage to take on the world with him." "I love him so much that I didn't want him to have to fight his family, or the whole world because of me. He could have had a great life, but ended up with nothing because of our relationship." "Merritt, since you say you like me, I thought you'd understand." Merritt felt a pang of discomfort as he listened to Christine's confession about Dailey, but he could tell she was even more upset.
From the moment he met Christine, she was always vibrant and lively.

Once rested, she'd take off to embrace the sky once again.
No one could clip her wings.
Yet here she was, confiding her love for Dailey to him. What should have been a happy revelation was instead filled with melancholy.
"Let's set the family aside, sis. Don't you think Dailey's been a bit muddled about the whole Nelly situation?" Merritt asked.
Christine nodded, "Somewhat, yes." Merritt was puzzled, "Then why, sis, do you..." Christine took a sip of her wine and said, "Isn't it clear now?" "But he's going to marry Nelly." "If you could reveal the truth about that night, maybe the wedding wouldn't have to happen." After a long silence, Merritt said, "Then sis, cback withto Vista Town. If Dailey comes back for you and calls off the wedding with Nelly, I'll confront Nelly in front of everyone and tell the truth about that night." "Otherwise, let's not bring it up again, as if that night never happened." "Are you willing to take that bet?" Christine, fearless as ever, clinked her glass with Merritt's, "We'll return the day before the wedding." They continued drinking until the early hours of the morning.
Meanwhile, Dailey had spent the entire night in Nelly's hospital room, leaving only at dawn.
Nelly, having not slept a wink, sat up as soon as she heard the door close. It took a moment for her to snap out of her daze, and when a nurse cin to give her medication, she finally spoke up.

Being a VIP patient from the Clarkson family, the nurse didn't hesitate to fulfill such a small request, especially given how politely Nelly asked.
"Here you go." "Thank you." Nelly took the nurse's phone, dialed a number, but hung up after one ring. She deleted the call log and handed the phone back to the nurse with another word of thanks "You're very welcome." QUMS
After the nurse saw Nelly had taken her medication, she left the room and was soon escorted to a secure corridor by Primo. "What did the person in the room do with your phone?" inquired.
The nurse honestly recounted the event, "She just made a call, but it I seemed like it didn't go through. I didn't want to pry too much into the patient's privacy." Primo asked for the nurse's phone number and had someone check the call log.
After finding out, he reported back to Trey, who was accompanying Dailey back to the Clarkson estate. After Dailey had freshened up, Trey whispered to him.
"Sir, about Nelly..."
