“Who exactly?”
“I can’t remember.
”
Kyson hadn’t paid much attention to Audrey, so he didn’t recall her name.
Dulcie watched his expression.
Seeing how relaxed and unaffected he appeared, she suddenly felt relieved.
It seemed he wasn’t trying to hide anything.

Perhaps he had merely exchanged a casual greeting with the woman.
Maybe she had misjudged the situation.
As she was reassessing her thoughts, Kyson spoke up.
“She claimed her car wouldn’t start and asked for a ride.
She’s scheming but not very clever, and you know what? You’re even more naive than she is.
”
Dulcie was left speechless.
His words were harsh.
Just when she thought she might have misunderstood him, his mocking comment confirmed her feelings.
“What does that have to do with me? Why do you have to insult me about everything?”
He sneered disdainfully, “I’m just being honest.
”
Feeling downhearted, Dulcie shifted her legs toward the car door, maintaining a distance between them.
As Kyson drove leisurely, his demeanor suddenly turned grave, as if a realization had struck him.
“You were upset when you got into the car.
Is it because of this? Are you jealous?”
“No,” Dulcie replied stiffly.
“I am aware of my place.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Good, you understand,” he responded smoothly, without hesitation, clearly expressing his thoughts.
She bowed her head, disheartened, and remained silent.
The silence resumed, and the atmosphere in the car grew chilly again.
It was only interrupted when Kyson’s phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID displayed on the car’s screen.
It was Lucinda.
His face immediately turned serious.
After clearing his throat, he pressed the Bluetooth button to answer the call.
Dulcie noticed the name on the caller ID.
Sally had once mentioned that he had an unforgettable childhood friend named Lucinda.
