Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 374

Deirdre’s eyes turned red around the rims. She sniffled, and it took her a while to say, “How did you get two phones?”

“I borrowed it from someone else,” Kyran replied slowly. “Are you all right?”

“What?”

“You were followed by someone on your way to the hotel earlier, right? Declan has told me about it. You’re not terrified, right?”

Deirdre still couldn’t come around to her senses from everything that had happened. Knowing someone lurking in the dark knew her very well and would harm her was not a nice feeling.

She did not want Kyran to worry too much about her, so she took a deep breath and said, “I’m fine.”

“Really?” Kyran replied after a short moment of silence, “I’m sorry.”

“Huh? Why are you apologizing to me?” asked Deirdre. She did not know why Kyran would suddenly apologize to her.

“I should have asked Declan to wait for you,” said Kyran. “If I hadn’t let you go so soon, you wouldn’t have been followed by someone. I’m very sorry about that.”

“This isn’t your fault. This isn’t the first time I came back to the hotel alone,” replied Deirdre. “Besides, you asked me to come back because you wanted me to get some rest earlier. You’ve done nothing wrong.”

“But I should’ve anticipated something like that. You must have been scared when you realized that someone was following you, right? I wish I was there with you when that happened.”

If Kyran could speak, his voice must be laden with guilt and remorse.

Deirdre’s nerves loosened up a little. “Please don’t say that. No one, including myself, would have expected something like that to happen. By the way, I don’t think this is a bad thing. At the very least, I know someone is after me right now. As such, I’ll be more alert and won’t go to other places alone.”

Kyran typed on his phone, “You’re still as positive as always. But you don’t have to shoulder everything yourself. It’ll be good to depend on others sometimes.”
