Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 They’ve Reconciled

Mrs. Cox was not belittling Hoyt. It was just that there was such a big gap between Kyran and Hoyt. She had seen a lot of men in her life, and none of them was better than Kyran.

Deirdre chuckled and lowered her head. “But I’m sure Mr. Leigh is treating me as one of his friends.”

“Really? I don’t think so,” said Mrs. Cox. “You didn’t come back with Hoyt yesterday, so I asked him where you had been. He was kind of dejected while explaining the whole story to me. He looked very sad, and I’ve never seen that kind of expression on his face before.”

Deirdre was stunned, but before Mrs. Cox could say anything further, Kyran returned.

She stopped saying anything and changed to another topic. “Why don’t you two stay for a meal? I’ll go prepare some food for you.”

“Okay, but Kyran and I still have to go somewhere else.”

“Where are you going?”

“We’re going to Mr. Leigh’s house.”

“I see,” replied Mrs. Cox. “Well, he has helped you a lot as well, so you should go and say thank you to him. Alright then. I’ll be waiting here for you to come back then.”

“Okay.”

They went back into the car, and Kyran started the engine. None of them talked to each other as they headed to the village head’s house.

As Deirdre was about to get out of the car, she realized that the door was locked.

She looked at Kyran and saw him typing on the phone. “Are you going to comfort that guy? After all, he seems sad, according to Mrs. Cox.”

It seemed to Deirdre that Kyran had been there when Mrs. Cox and she were talking. He had listened to their conversation. That’s why he remained silent throughout the whole journey of coming to the Leighs’ house. He was being jealous.

She chuckled and said, “Mrs. Cox was just assuming. I think Mr. Leigh is sad because he ran into his ex- girlfriend yesterday. It isn’t because of me.”

“What if it’s because of you?”

Deirdre fell silent for a moment and replied, “Since he didn’t confess to me, it isn’t appropriate for me to avoid him. By right, I should express my gratitude to him since he has helped me a lot.”
