Chapter 479 You Have Feelings for Someone Else, Right
“Oh right, I found a tube of ointment on the table. Who gave it to you?”
Deirdre added firewood to the burner and said, “Mr. Leigh.”
“Hoyt?”
“Hmm.”
Mrs. Cox’s expression turned into a meaningful look at once. “I know that he doesn’t
have this in this house. Tell me he didn’t just get acquainted with you yesterday and went
to buy it from the market today?”
Deirdre nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “Why?”
Enter title…
“We don’t have cars in the village, so one will need to ride a bicycle to get to the market.
On the other hand, it takes about four hours in total to get to the market by bicycle and
back. There’s nothing important happening in the market today anyway. What do you
think?”
Deirdre was stunned.
Mrs. Cox beamed widely. “Hoyt has fallen for you.”
It was rather preposterous to Deirdre, and she said, “How can that be possible? He’s just
a nice man.”
“No matter how kind a person is, there’s always an ulterior motive. I wouldn’t go to the
market to buy medicine for someone I just recently got to know, especially not in the
middle of a summer day.” Mrs. Cox smiled joyously as if she was delighted to be a
matchmaker. “However, that’s pretty good too. Hoyt is a great person and takes care of
people. You won’t live a hard life if you marry him.”
Deirdre did not answer, so Mrs. Cox came to realize the situation and said shyly, “Yikes,
what’s wrong with me? I haven’t even asked for your opinion before I made a decision
for you. You have feelings for someone else, right?”
“No…”
“You don’t need to deny either. I can see that you look different when I mentioned that
you were quarreling with your boyfriend at the time. Afterward, you’ll be distracted as
soon as you’re free, an obvious sign that you’re thinking about someone else.” Mrs. Cox
served the meal with a spatula, paused for a moment, and said, “ You don’t want to go
back because you’re in a fight with him?”
Deirdre appeared to be overwhelmed with emotions. “He’s not my boyfriend anymore.”
“Did you guys break up?” Mrs. Cox heaved a sigh. “No wonder…”
