Chapter 420 Do You Regret Being With Me?
âYour phone, someone called you earlier.â
Upon hearing the answer, Deirdreâs face, which was blushing from the heat, instantly turned pale.
âWho?â
Kyran didnât answer but paced toward her step by step.
Before Deirdre could speak again, Kyran took the towel from her hand and gently patted her hair. His movements were infinitely gentle, but the air pressure around him was inexplicably suffocating. Deirdre clenched her fists tightly, and her palms were sweating. She asked again, âWho called?â
Kyran finally stopped his movements. With his face unexpectedly cold, he took out his phone and typed, Who do you think it could be?â
Deirdre swallowed her saliva. She couldnât think of anyone else apart from Tobey, but she didnât know what they had said over the phone and why Kyran was in a bad mood.
âW-Was it Tobey?â
Kyran replied with a sophisticated feeling in his eyes, âYes, it was him.â
As predictedâ¦
Deirdre felt uncomfortable.
Kyran asked, âIs there any secret between you and him that I donât know?â
Without waiting for an answer, he added another question, âDeirdre, whoâs Tobey to you? And who am I?â
Deirdreâs mind went blank for a while. Kyran laughed at himself. âEver since you agreed to be my girlfriend, youâve been acting very strangely. And you are close with Tobey. D-Do you regret agreeing to be my girlfriend, regret being with me?â
âOf course not!â Deirdre strongly denied it. She closed her eyes and felt complicated because no one could understand her feelings.
She cared about Kyran and was looking forward to this relationship, but at the same time, she was afraid. She was afraid that Kyran would be that man.
âSince you havenât regretted it, tell me why you suddenly bought sanitary napkins when your period hasnât arrived yet. I thought I remembered it wrong, but you actually wanted to contact Tobey, right?â
Kyran took a deep breath, and he even typed somewhat harder.
Hearing that her intention was exposed, Deirdre felt embarrassed, and her eyes drooped.
Kyran couldnât get an answer, so he gave her the towel in his hand. âDeirdre, Iâm not a saint. I could bear it before because I was pursuing you at that time. But after becoming my girlfriend, I canât help feeling jealous and uncomfortable, especially when confronting a love rival who provokes me. I donât blame you for hiding something from me, but if you just want to hide from me and keep in touch with someone who likes you, then I think we both need to calm down.â
He turned, intending to leave.
Reflexively, Deirdre grabbed the hem of his clothes and said depressingly, âKyran, Iâd never two-time you. Are you willing to believe that I have difficulties?â
Kyran didnât break free but asked, âWhy canât you tell me your difficulties? Do you think Iâm not truthful enough to you?â
âKyran.â Deirdre took a deep breath, trying to control the urge to speak out again and again. âI-I canât speak it out.â
Kyran was silent for a moment. He kissed her forehead, but at the same time, pushed her hand away.
âSince you canât speak it out, I wonât force you. You can tell me only after you have settled your affairs.â
He handed Deirdre her phone. âIâll give you time to deal with the call. Iâll go out for a while.â
Deirdre bit her lip. âThank you.â
Kyran didnât say a word. He merely stood there for a while and went out.
When Kyran left, Deirdreâs eyes couldnât help turning red. She closed her eyes and inhaled repeatedly before she could finally calm herself down.
