Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 898

Chapter 898 Jealous of Your Best Friend

Declan was amused. “Why are you being so childish? I’m not going to fight you on this. You can have all the credit. How have you been feeling recently, Miss McKinnon? Are you doing alright after enduring hardships in the detention center during your pregnancy?” “No. I have already fully recovered after resting in the hospital for a few days.”

Deirdre had mixed feelings toward Declan because he was an accomplice who had deceived her, but Declan had put his heart and soul into doing things for her other than this particular situation.

“Great then.” Declan smiled and said, “My trip is worth it.”

Deirdre could tell that Declan was leaving, judging from his tone. “Will you still be returning to Eastgene, Mr. King? Are you not going to stay for a few more days?” “I would like to stay for a few more days too because I’ve been thinking about your cooking constantly these days. However, I’m needed there. I’ll be back to gather with everyone when I’m done dealing with everything.”

Declan did not linger further. He took his luggage and left right away in the same manner he came.

Brendan sent him off while Deirdre got out of the shower and heard the door opening. Brendan walked over and hugged her, breathing heavily.

Deirdre shoved him once in embarrassment. “Go and take a shower first.

You reek of alcohol.”

Brendan sniffed at himself and let go of Deirdre. He spoke in a tone tainted with grief. ‘You seem to care a lot about Declan, huh?” “What?” “He said that he is leaving today, but I could tell from the way you spoke that you wanted him to stay. You sounded like you couldn’t bear to part with him.”

Deirdre was stunned. She came to realize that Brendan was jealous and found it amusing all at once.

‘Why is he jealous of Declan?1 “He’s Declan King, and you’re overthinking.” “Yet, he is handsome, gentle, and caring.” Brendan insisted.

“That is true indeed,” Deirdre said softly.
