Chapter 724 I’ll Be Mad if I Have the Audacity to Take His Woman

Jamie feigned his anger. “What do you mean? Do I look like that kind of person who

takes advantage of women by shaking their hands?”

Deirdre could not help laughing. She took it upon herself to extend her hand. “Hello,

Jamie.”

Jamie was chivalrous indeed. He loosened his grip over her soon after they shook

hands. Then, he asked enthusiastically, “Are you from here, Deirdre? Do you know of

any good places to eat here? The three of us should go grab some lunch, my treat!”

“She’s not living here. Moreover, she has been living in Neve for a few years, so I’m

sure that she wouldn’t know about the food scene here.”

“Neve?” Jamie was surprised. “I’ve returned to Neve for three to four years since I

finished graduate school, but I’m actually unaware of such a beautiful girl living in

Neve. It seems that I’ve been staying at home for too long.”

He was only joking, but Deirdre was thinking way too much.

It was normal for Jamie not to notice her presence because she had been hated by

everyone five years ago, forced to go into prison, and spent very little time going out

because she lost her sight afterward, especially after meeting Brendan again…

Deirdre’s gaze dimmed as she thought about the man that haunted her for a longtime.

Jamie said, “I shall be the host today by taking all of you to lunch then.”

Tobey explained on behalf of Deirdre, “Forget it. Deirdre’s boyfriend is coming to pick

her up.”

“Boyfriend?”

Speaking of the devil!

The glass door opened the next moment. Kyran’s 1.8-meter-tall, muscular figure drew

the attention of many people. His hair was combed back casually, and his dark eyes

exuded coldness. His facial features were flawlessly handsome, and he exuded a

presence that kept people at bay, yet people could not take their eyes off him.

Someone inhaled sharply in the surroundings, but Kyran acted normal. He looked

around, and his gaze landed on Deirdre.

He walked over, and Tobey’s gaze turned colder. He kept a hand in his pocket. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Kyran did not express his hostility in an obvious manner this time. On the contrary, he

had a faint smile on his face. He nodded to greet Tobey. “Mr. Russell.”

Then, he wrapped his arm around the woman’s slender waist and pulled her closer to

him while he asked, ‘Why are you standing?”

Deirdre explained, ‘Tobey’s friend is here.”

“Friend?”

Kyran shifted his gaze to look toward Jamie and nodded to greet him.

Jamie was stunned. He furrowed his eyebrows and expressed his confusion. In the

end, he could not refrain from asking, “What is your name, sir?”

Kyran paused for a moment. “Reed.”

“Reed?” Jamie appeared conflicted. Soon afterward, he smiled and said, ” That’s a

good last name.”

Kyran nodded nonchalantly and disregarded the matter.

Deirdre said, ‘Tobey, Jamie, we shall take our leave first.”

“Hmm. Stay safe and keep in touch for the next two days.”

“Sure.”

Deirdre and Kyran walked away while Jamie was still constantly distracted from

staring at them.

Tobey teased him. ‘Why are you still having trouble parting with her when she’s

already long gone? You can’t have fallen in love with Deirdre for real, right? I’m

warning you that her boyfriend is definitely not a kind man.”

“I’m aware of that, of course!” Jamie cleared his name by saying, “Her boyfriend

wears a watch that costs more than 150,000 dollars. He is on a totally different level,

and I’ll be mad if I have the audacity to take his woman!”

‘Why were you looking at her then?”

Jamie said with a frown, “I was looking at Mr. Reed.” 1

Tobey shifted his gaze to Jamie’s face upon hearing that. He said meaningfully, “I

wasn’t aware of your sexuality. It was no wonder you used to pester me to shower

with me during university.”

“F*ck you!” Jamie was furious.

Tobey burst out laughing aloud and said, “So, why were you constantly staring at him

then? Could it be that you’re acquainted with him?”
