Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498 He Isn’t Mute

“Miss McKinnon…” He pressed down the bitterness in his heart and forced a smile on his face. “What brought you here today?”

“I’m here to thank you. When I was injured, if it hadn’t been for you riding your bike to the market every day and buying me medicine, my hands wouldn’t have recovered so soon.”

Deirdre looked at Kyran. After receiving her signal, Kyran went to the car and took some gifts from the trunk.

The village head took them over and said embarrassingly, “I… I didn’t do much. It’s a bit inappropriate for me to receive the gifts.”

“Well, although you didn’t do much, your son has provided us with a lot of help,” typed Kyran with a fake smile tugging at the corner of his lips.

Even though he did not mention it explicitly, Hoyt knew what he was implying and lowered his head. Deirdre sensed his hostility and cleared her throat. “Mr. Leigh, can I have a minute with you?”

Hoyt walked over to the side. Just when Deirdre followed after him, Kyran grabbed her hand.

“I’ll be back soon.” Deirdre comforted him.

He let go of her hand but leaned closer and landed a light kiss on the corner of her lips as if he was telling Hoyt that he was her boyfriend.

Hoyt was overwhelmed with sadness, but there was nothing he could do other than ignore it.

When Deirdre walked over, he forced a smile on his face and said, “Congratulations, Miss McKinnon. Mr. Reed is such a wonderful man. I’m sure you two will have a happy life in the future.”

“Thank you,” Deirdre replied gently.

This was the first time Hoyt saw Deirdre smile genuinely. In the past few days, her smile seemed fake and forced. It seemed to him that she had found the man that she loved in her life, and he was happy for her.

With that thought in his mind, he asked, “Are you leaving this village, Miss McKinnon?”

“Yeah.” Deirdre was surprised at Hoyt’s sixth sense. “I’ll be going to Germia soon. We might not be able to see each other anymore, so I’m here to say goodbye to you. Thank you for taking care of me for the past few days.”
