Chapter 389 A Well-Meaning Lic Dalton replied: "Whether he hatesor forgives me... honestly, I don't care how he feels about me. Along as he's doing well, that's all that matters." Jean couldn't help but press a hand to her forehead. This guy really was stubborn as a rock.
It felt like everything she'd tried to say had gone to waste. Dalton clearly had no interest in making peace with Winston.
Still, even if she hadn't gotten through to him, she didn't walk away empty-handed.
She'd learned a lot-things she'd never known before.
She understood her brother Winston a little better now.
His childhood had been even more complicated and rough than she'd imagined....
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThankfully, Matheo had already vanished from their lives, and Sienna had finally turned things around. Everything was starting to improve...
Maybe, over time, Winston's emotional wounds would finally begin to heal.
As for him and Dalton...
She was done meddling-let fate decide.
Wounds like theirs could only start to heal if both sides were willing to face them. And she was just a bystander- there wasn't much she could do.
She'd already said everything that needed to be said.
With that thought, she lowered her eyes and began to type.
Jean texted: "Thank you for tellingall this. You really cleared up a lot of my questions." Dalton replied: "You're welcome. Actually... I should be the one thanking you." Jean frowned slightly and asked: “Thank me? For what?" Dalton answered: "Because I've kept all of this bottled up for so long. I've never talked to anyone about it. Saying it all to you today-it actually feels like a huge weight's been lifted. Having someone willing to listen... it really does help, don't you think?" Jean couldn't help but smile.
Jean texted: "Yeah, it really does. I'm honored to be the one who got to hear it." After wrapping up her conversation with Dalton, Jean wasted no tsending Winston a message.
Jean texted: "Winston, please don't kick Dalton off the team!" About half a minute later, Winston finally responded.
Winston texted: "Stay out of it. I'll handle it myself." Chapter 389 A Well-Meaning Lie So harsh... Jean stuck her tongue out at the screen.
Jean texted: "Actually, I just finished talking to Dalton." Winston asked: "What did you two talk about?" Jean smiled quietly to herself. As expected... you do care about Dalton.
Jean replied: "Nothing much. Probably nothing you'd be interested in...“.
Winston texted: "Are you going to tellor not?" Her grin widened. She'd only teased him a little, and he'd already taken the bait.
Jean texted: "I know you're eager, but hang on a sec." After she sent the message, the other side went silent.
Half a minute later, a soft ping cthrough.
Winston texted: "I'm not eager." Jean replied: "Mhm, sure, I know you're not." Winston texted: "Forget it. I didn't really want to know anyway." Jean bit her lip, trying not to burst out laughing. This guy... could he be any more tsundere?
Jean texted: "Okay, okay, I'll stop messing with you. I did talk to Dalton. He said he actually wants to team up with you again. He said you two used to make a great team." As she sent the message, Jean silently murmured in her head. Sorry, Dalton.
She'd told a little white lie.
She hadn't spilled the details of their conversation. Sthings belonged to Dalton, and of course she wouldn't share them without his permission...
So she made something up-just a small lie, blending it with a bit of truth-hoping it might reach Winston's heart. Send Gifts to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
