Female Novel
Chapter 759
Kyra could feel her heart drop.
Frederic’s question would only mean that he was still suspicious of her.
Fortunately, she had thought about what she wanted to say in advance.
“We met by chance when I was at the bar. She was the one who came up and talked to me. I didn’t know who shewas at the time, I just thought we had a good conversation. I only knew that she was a doctor later on. When Ivisited Uncle Clarence, he was ill. I thought that his disease was strange and somewhat similar to what Jean had.So, I contacted Thora to see if she could help.”
After she finished speaking, the old man remained silent.
His eyes were sharp as a hawk’s, and they were glaring at her, seemingly to unravel if her words were lies or not.
Kyra endured the pressure of his gaze, her palms were covered in cold sweat.
Even Dandy did not dare to take a breath. She was scared if Frederic could see through them.
Luckily, after a few seconds, Frederic looked away and nodded slightly.
It seemed like he reluctantly believed what Kyra had just said.
Kyra then sighed in relief, and apologized again.
“Anyhow, I was the one who introduced Thora to the Beauvort family, and caused such a big mishap towardsJean. I am more or less responsible for this. I want to apologize to him, but I don’t think he’d want to see me.”
She smiled wryly of herself.
Then, she turned around and asked Wrenn.
“Aunt Wrenn, can I trouble you to go to the Imperial Gardens with me? He doesn’t want to see me, but he’lldefinitely see you. Don’t worry, I won’t pester him. I’ll leave after I apologize!”
Wrenn was a soft-hearted person after all.
Besides, she was the one who watched Kyra grow up. So, she agreed.
The two of them quickly went over to the Imperial Gardens.
When they arrived, they saw Jean’s luggage sitting beside the sofa.
Wrenn was surprised, and asked in a hurry: “Where are you going, Jean?”
Jean turned his head around as he heard her voice.
The moment he saw Kyra, his frown deepened. “What are you doing here, mom?” He asked instead of answering.
Wrenn looked at the luggage and then back at him.
After a few seconds, she sighed and continued: “I came here today with Kyra because she wants to apologize toyou. She has been blaming herself for the past few days, so she wants to say that she’s sorry personally.”
Kyra then took the chance to take two steps forward, and said: “That’s true. Jean, I…”
Before she could speak, Jean averted his gaze and interrupted her coldly.
“There’s no need to apologize. This is a matter within our family. It has nothing to do with you.”
His words were laced with alienation and rejection.
Kyra couldn’t hide the look of embarrassment on her face.
Wrenn had no choice but to come to her rescue, so she asked again: “Are you going on a business trip? Your bodyhasn’t fully recovered yet, why not get somebody else to go on your behalf?”
“It’s not a business trip.”
“Then what is it…?” novelbin
“I’m going to find Neera.”
Wrenn was stunned.
“But aren’t the both of you… divorced? She’s already left.”
As Wrenn said those words, she wasn’t as aggressive as before, but rather confused.
She didn’t notice that Kyra was shocked to hear this.
Jean and Neera were divorced?
When was this?
She didn’t even know about it!
Moreover… Neera had already left the country?
Kyra was suddenly very excited deep down.
But she suppressed her emotions from emerging on her face.
Jean didn’t bother to look at her. He only glanced at Wrenn indifferently.
“So what? I’ve said before, divorce doesn’t mean the end. I’ve not given up yet. In this lifetime of mine, my wifewill only be her.”
