Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

Chapter 932

“Do you need me to explain myself?” Hayden asked Keira seriously when he saw her, “No, I don’t,” Keira replied with a smile. “Don’t bother explaining.”

“Then you’re not upset or misunderstanding anything?” His gaze held a hint of curiosity as he studied her.

She could tell he was worried. After all, he’d called and texted her, and she hadn’t responded. Of course, he must’ve been overthinking things.

Keira didn’t ask for an explanation, and Hayden didn’t offer one. Still, she could sense something was off with him. His thoughtful gaze followed her whenever she glanced his way.

Sometimes, men overthought things too. But she was busy, so she didn’t dwell on it.

That night, she was so exhausted that she went straight to sleep when she got home. It wasn’t until the eve of our grand reopening that she noticed Hayden smoking outside the courtyard.
