Chapter 479: Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 480

Chapter 480 What Is Her Relationship to Him?

Deirdre stuffed the coat into Hoyt’s hands and said calmly, “This is a gift from someone to me. However, I’m not planning on wearing it anymore because out of sight, out of mind. It would be great if you could handle it for me too. If you really think that it’s too much, you can take 70% of the sales profit and give the remaining 30% to Mrs. Cox.”

Hoyt still wanted to decline, but Deirdre said, “Just think of it as a favor to me. Will that be alright?”

Hoyt could not bring himself to decline again. He folded the coat and said softly, “However, I don’t want it. I’ll help you to sell it. You’re a girl and need some money. You can use it to buy stuff for yourself.”

Deirdre smiled but did not comment further.

She would figure out a way to get the money to Hoyt by then.

Enter title…

Hoyt felt his heart racing as soon as he saw her smile. He lowered his head further instantly because he had never seen a woman with such a beautiful, gentle smile. The wounds on her face that were almost scabbing over did not ruin her beauty in the slightest.

“I… I…” He stuttered. He could only calm himself after pinching his thigh. “I’ll dress your wounds now!”

“Sure.”

Deirdre stretched out her hands. Hoyt did not leave for a long time after he was done dressing her wounds.

“Is there anything else?” asked Deirdre.

Hoy appeared hesitant. “Uh…”

“Hmm?”

“Forget it. Nothing, I shall make a move first.”

Hoyt left with a muddled head. He wanted to ask Deirdre about her relationship with the man from yesterday. However, he thought about it closely and figured that Deirdre did not want to interact with that man since she had chosen to stay here.

If he were to bring up that matter, it would only dampen Deirdre’s spirit.

He returned with the coat and found the luxury car from yesterday parked at the door of his house. He furrowed his eyebrows and stuck his head into the house.

The two people from yesterday were in the yard. Hoyt wanted to sneak away, but Madame Leigh noticed him at one glance. She said loudly, “Hoyt, where are you going?

What did you do at the market today? You didn’t help me get the 3 dollars worth of pork I asked you to!”

The man from before cast a look at Hoyt instantly. His gaze was cold as before.

Hoyt hid by the door and stuffed the coat into the carrier strapped to the backseat of the bicycle while he said, “How am I supposed to get it when I don’t have enough money with me?”

Madame Leigh caught up to him and said, “Don’t have enough money? Where did the 15 dollars you had with you go?”

Hoyt thought that the money was enough to treat Deirdre’s hands.

“Don’t mind that.”

“What’s in the bicycle’s carrier? You can’t be buying some indecent stuff secretly with the money, right?” muttered Madame Leigh. She was about to grab the coat from the bicycle.

“That’s enough!” The village head stopped them impatiently. “ Both of you, go back to the house. We have guests here. Why are you making a fool of yourselves by clamoring here?”

Madame Leigh pulled Hoyt into the house to deal with him while the village head said in embarrassment, “There are too many family affairs here. Sorry for that.”

Declan chuckled and said, “A family is only lively when there are quarrels. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. On the contrary, your wife is quite enthusiastic and doesn’t treat us as outsiders, at the very least.”

The village head was rather embarrassed, yet he felt comforted by Declan’s remark. He glanced at the indifferent-looking Kyran and went into talking proper business. “There are very few villagers who fish nowadays. The older ones can’t stand the cold from the sea wind, so they forage for food on the mountain to sell. However, I believe that they will report to me at once if they find something. They won’t keep it for themselves.”

“So, you’re saying they haven’t even found a pair of shoes, huh?”

The village head was slightly hesitant. “They don’t really want shoes, anyway. They may throw them away after finding them. I shall ask around again today.”
