Resent Reject Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 529
Chapter 529 As Those Scars Healed
Deirdre had expected Charlene to be arrested, but she did not expect
it to happen as soon as two dayster. When the police told her the woman in
question was already detained, Deirdre was shocked.
The police were careful to put a damp on whatever fervor Deirdre might have after hearing news like th
at. “We need to put this out there, though. We might not get to arrest her instantly on our first attempt.”
She did not really need it–
Deirdre knew it was next to a miracle to get Charlene to admit to guilt or be arrested on the first day. Sh
e sshed some water over her face, hoping the cold would wake her up from any stupor.
She was so preupied that she missed out on her face’s strange smoothness. She changed into a se
t of new clothes and went downstairs.
Den was on breakfast duty today while Kyran yed his assistant. Hearing amotion echoing fro
m the stairs, Den raised his head and greeted, “Miss McKinnon, good morn-”
He did not finish his sentence.
Kyran instinctively turned to look at the woman at the stairs as well.
A pair of clear, misty doe–
eyes stared back at him from the covers of slender, arched eyebrows. Her scarred face was gone–
her skin was smooth, fair, and supple, like the skin of a newborn. Her ruby lips brought out the pearly w
hiteness of her luscious teeth. She looked so absolutely stunning that nobody could turn their eyes awa
y.
Kyran had seen Deirdre before her disfigurement, and yet right
now, he could not stop his heart from skipping. His cheeks were burning.
“What’s wrong?” Deirdre blinked in confusion. “What happened? Why did you stop? Is it something on
my
face?”
Den chuckled. “Well, it’s your face, all right. You’re so beautiful it terrified me.”
“Beautiful?” Deirdre was stunned.
“Didn’t you know? Your scars have healed.”
Deirdre’s heart skipped a beat, and she unconsciously rubbed her cheeks. She could not feel the jagge
d friction from her
scars anymore. Her face hadpletely recovered. Her skin was so supple it was as if it was just born
anew.

She had recovered her original look.
“Wait till your sight has recovered. You’ll be like a phoenix rising- No, scratch that. You are already a ph
oenix rising from the mes.”
Deirdre’s eyes warmed in glee. “Really?!”
“Yes, really. You can ask Kyran if you think I’m pulling your leg.”
Kyran did not expect himself to be name–dropped at all, and he sputtered. “R-Right! You’re beautiful.”
“Hmm… That reaction is suspicious. Now I’m a little sure Kyran had already known how beautiful Miss
McKinnon really was way before her recovery, which
is why he tried to steal your heart that early! D*mnit, Kyran is a psychic, isn’t he?” Den teased. “Mea
nwhile, a mere mortal named Den King can only wallow
in hisck of foresight. He could have waged an epic war at Kyran!”
Hisment flustered Deirdre, but the man continued. “You know… since you haven’t gotten into a

marriage with Kyran, it’s still fair game, right? Ditch him, pick me!”
He was kidding, so Deirdre was not offended at all. She giggled. “That’s enough, Mr. King! I know I’m no
“Oh?” Den froze a little before his
habitual smile resurfaced. “What kind of girl do you think I like, then?”
Deirdre thought for a moment. “I think you like a kind, gentle type who always understands you.”
He paused, but before he could reply, Deirdre continued.
“But I actually think a girl like that might not be the one for you. I think you’re a lone wolf underneath all t
“You think… I’m distant and stoic?”
Deirdre was only bbering off her gut feelings, so being asked pointedly about it made her nervous. “I
Den found it hrious. “Ha, ain’t that a guess! I almost believed you. Well, I hope your verdict ends up
