Living a life without regrets…
Was that even possible?
As Lauren immersed her body in the bathtub's warm water, she could not stop thinking about the talk that transpired between her and Vivian. It wasn't possible to live a life without regrets, she thought. People make mistakes and no one had a full grasp of what the future may bring. If she was to take the most convenient path, how could she guarantee that she wouldn't regret it in the future?
She guessed what Vivian meant was… she should take the risk and be brave, to be honest with Alec regardless of the outcome. To be honest with herself. To be able to express her feelings.
After taking her time in the tub, it was already seven in the evening by the time she was finished. After slipping into her nightdress, Alec soon arrived. She heard from Matthias that he left that afternoon to go to the council laboratory.
