Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490 Do You Believe Me Now?

Declan chuckled self-deprecatingly. “It was more than just ‘not talking.’ We give each other stink eyes when we see each other, too. So, why would I care about someone who hates my guts? Why would I eagerly visit him? Why would I even tell you we knew each other as if it was something I should be proud

of?”

Deirdre shook her head. She was not going to let herself be duped anymore.

Kyran extended his hand toward her, and she slapped it away. “How about the fact that there isn’t a guy called Kyran Reed in Room 1106? What about that?”

Kyran stared at the hand she rejected, his expression darkening. He typed on his phone, and the mechanical voice said, “Because I’m trying to keep a low profile.”

“What?” She was perplexed.

Declan gave a mirthless laugh. “It’s because of me. My brother’s an irritatingly exacting man. He makes sure I can never, ever surpass him in anything, so any cooperation or work I have with Kyran is done in

secret.

“My brother doesn’t even know Kyran has returned from Germia, so naturally, I am not going to let my brother catch on. That’s why I had to register your name as the patient instead.”

Deirdre’s lips trembled. ‘Is that it?”

Kyran stepped forward slowly, and she backed away as though she sensed it. “Don’t you get one step closer!”

Her instinctive defensiveness made Kyran’s face turn pale. Nevertheless, he ignored her and held her hand softly.

Deirdre felt a wave of sentimentality gushing into her chest. She tried to struggle out of his hand, yelling, Don’t touch me!”

Kyran gently lifted her fingertip and let it graze his face. “Deirdre, you want to know who I am, Touch me.”

don’t you?

Deirdre widened her eyes. He was so close to her, yet it was as if she was peeking through a fog. She could not see. Her fingertip trembled.
