Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 669

Declan came up with a rather standard answer.

“Miss McKinnon needs you still.” He said, “She called me today and told me about how you’ve been acting off recently. She’s very worried about you as a friend. I feel that we shouldn’t affect her usually calm life anyhow, don’t you think so?”

Glenna felt her heart sink. She had naively assumed that Declan perhaps cared about her at the very least, which was why he would try to explain the painful topic to her willingly.

“So…” Glenna’s voice was shaky when she said, “So, you’re only here to see me to solve this issue. You’ve never found yourself to be at fault, right?”

“A deceit will always be wrong. However, as I’ve said, we don’t have a right to intervene as outsiders.”

Declan looked at the tears she held back in her eyes calmly. “Glenna, you’re an adult and a childhood friend of Fionn. I hope you won’t ruin your friendship with Miss McKinnon because you’re doing it out of momentary spite.”

Glenna clenched her fist tightly and looked at Declan’s extremely calm face. She finally understood what Fionn had been implying in the past.

Declan was too heartless. Or, he could be described as a man who had seen it all such that he was so infuriatingly calm when he dealt with everything. He was so calm that he had lost the reactions and emotions that a person should have, i

Glenna smirked and said, “I understand. It seems I shouldn’t have come to have a meal with you. We’re not the same kind of people from the start.”

She grabbed her jacket in preparation to leave, while Declan caught her off guard by saying, “Glenna, you have a crush on me, right?”

When Glenna heard the remark, she felt her emotions boiling in her chest, Declan said nonchalantly, “Since you have a crush on me, you may continue to have a crush on me then. We can go back exactly as we were and maintain our previous relationship. As long as you’re willing to pretend as if nothing has happened, I will even agree to give you a chance at dating me.”

Glenna breathed deeply and came to realize what the term ‘overwhelming coldness’ meant.

In Declan’s eyes, her feelings for him were akin to a transaction.
