Chapter 497 They’ve Reconciled
Mrs. Cox was not belittling Hoyt. It was just that there was such a big gap between Kyran and Hoyt. She had seen a
lot of men in her life, and none of them was better than Kyran.
Deirdre chuckled and lowered her head. “But I’m sure Mr. Leigh is treating me as one of his friends.”
“Really? I don’t think so,” said Mrs. Cox. “You didn’t come back with Hoyt yesterday, so I asked him where you had
been. He was kind of dejected while explaining the whole story to me. He looked very sad, and I’ve never seen that
kind of expression on his face before.”
Deirdre was stunned, but before Mrs. Cox could say anything further, Kyran returned.
She stopped saying anything and changed to another topic. “Why don’t you two stay for a meal? I’ll go prepare
some food for you.”
“Okay, but Kyran and I still have to go somewhere else.”
“Where are you going?”

“I see,” replied Mrs. Cox. “Well, he has helped you a lot as well, so you should go and say thank you to him. Alright
then. I’ll be waiting here for you to come back then.”
“Okay.”
They went back into the car, and Kyran started the engine. None of them talked to each other as they headed to
the village head’s house.
As Deirdre was about to get out of the car, she realized that the door was locked.
She looked at Kyran and saw him typing on the phone. “Are you going to comfort that guy? After all, he seems sad,
according to Mrs. Cox.”
It seemed to Deirdre that Kyran had been there when Mrs. Cox and she were talking. He had listened to their
conversation. That’s why he remained silent throughout the whole journey of coming to the Leighs’ house. He was
being jealous.
She chuckled and said, “Mrs. Cox was just assuming. I think Mr. Leigh is sad because he ran into his ex- girlfriend
yesterday. It isn’t because of me.”
“What if it’s because of you?”
Deirdre fell silent for a moment and replied, “Since he didn’t confess to me, it isn’t appropriate for me to avoid him.
By right, I should express my gratitude to him since he has helped me a lot.”
Kyran paused for two seconds before typing helplessly. “Alright then.”
Deirdre coiled her arm around Kyran’s and said with a smile on her face, “Hurry up and open the door then. I’m not
going out anywhere with Mr. Leigh. We’re just going to talk for a while in front of you. You don’t have to worry about
anything.”
Left with no other choice, Kyran got out of the car first and helped Deirdre get out of the car.
When Madame Leigh came out with a bowl of water in her hand, she saw the luxury car in front of the gate. She
was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to come around to her senses after seeing Kyran and Deirdre.
She turned toward the house and shouted, “Honey, come out here!”
After that, she turned her head around to look at Deirdre, and understanding soon dawned upon her as to what had

The village head came over with a cigarette clasped between his lips. He was not surprised when he saw Kyran.
“What brought you here today, Mr. Reed?”
Kyran typed on the phone, “We’re here to thank you for your help in the past few days.”
He looked at Deirdre, and the village head was stunned. “Well, we’re happy that you finally found her.”
Madame Leigh said something to the village head, and he said, “Oh my! Let’s go in and have a seat. It’s cold out
here.”
“That’s not necessary,” typed Kyran. “I just came here to thank you. Besides, is your son here?”
“My son? Yeah, he’s in his room right now.”
Kyran’s heart was filled with jealousy, but he forced it down and said, “Can you ask him to come out for a while?”
“Okay.”
Madame Leigh hastily went in to call her son. After a while, Hoyt came out. He was wearing a jacket and looked
dejected. When he saw Deirdre, his eyes glowed up. “Miss McKinnon?”
In the next second, he received an indifferent and cold gaze from Kyran.
Deirdre looked at him with a smile and greeted him. “Mr. Leigh.”
Hoyt froze. It seemed to him that they had reconciled.
