Love's Cunning Ruse novel Chapter 327

Julie pointed at the data on the flash drive and said to Kieran, “According to Julien's research, it seems Kyle was taken back to Britain after breaking up with Sansa to reconnect with his roots. And it was only then that Joseph truly acknowledged Kyle's identity. But Kyle deliberately told us that he was taken back by his mother and Jessica because his mother wanted him to marry Jessica. However, if you look at Julien's findings, there’s no mention of Jessica at all. So... Kyle saying he went back to Britain because of Jessica, he's lying to us, right?”

Kieran didn't contradict Julie’s conclusion, but instead sat next to her and said earnestly, "Let's confront Kyle about this."

At first, Julie didn't understand what Kieran meant until he took the flash drive and drove with her to the hospital in the middle of the night.

Unsurprisingly, they found Kyle keeping a vigil by Sansa's hospital bed.

Upon seeing Julie and Kieran, Kyle showed no surprise. He glanced at them and continued holding Sansa's hand, before turning to Julie and Kieran to say, “I already know about Professor Fred's situation, and I won't give up on Sansa.”

"We won't either," Julie declared confidently, her certainty evident about this matter.

Kyle didn't let go of Sansa's hand but kept his gaze fixed on her as if he couldn't get enough of looking at her, and then spoke to Julie and Kieran, “Are you here because you don't trust me to be with Sansa? Or do you suspect that the drunk driver who hit the professor was arranged by me?”

"Don't get it wrong, we're here to lay our cards on the table," Kieran replied, passing the laptop to Kyle.

After reading the content, Kyle looked grim and asked Kieran coldly while sitting beside the bed, “How did you get this information?”

"Probably because your files were easier to get into than Simon’s,” Kieran replied casually, recalling something Julien had mentioned about Simon’s information being as elusive as a needle in a haystack.

Julie had no intention of beating around the bush with Kyle, so she went straight to the point, “Kyle, when you and my sister broke up, did you really go back to Britain because of Jessica, and not to acknowledge your ancestry?”

After a long silence, Kyle finally let go of Sansa's hand.

This subtle movement caught Julie's eye, and her expression became much more serious.

Kyle was silent again for a while before he finally spoke, “Indeed, just like the investigation results on that flash drive, the first thing I did after returning with Grace was to officially meet Joseph at Grace's request.”

Kyle spoke openly to Julie and Kieran, “I've known since I was a child that my father was the head of the Fitzgerald family, but the first time I met Joseph was indeed after breaking up with Sansa. I was raised by Grace, and she thought the time was right, so she took me back to Britain to meet Joseph. Jessica’s case is also true, Grace’s initial wish was indeed for me to marry her. Is there a problem with that?”

"No," Kieran suddenly stepped up to Kyle, took back his laptop, and then walked over to Julie, taking her hand.

Julie was puzzled by Kieran's actions and did not continue to question Kyle.

Kyle sat down beside Sansa again and said to Kieran and Julie, “Instead of wasting time investigating me, you should look into why Rowan is so relentless in pursuing Sansa. Joining forces with Hayden, you should be more capable than me.”

"I believe you," Kieran said sincerely to Kyle.

Julie turned her head in surprise at the moment Kieran’s words fell, looking at him. He would never say those words to Kyle unless he was one hundred percent sure, “I believe you haven't lied, but you also haven't told the whole truth. Everyone has their own story that they'd rather not share with outsiders, but that doesn’t stop me from trusting you.”

Kyle had thought Kieran was here to dig deep into the matter with the flash drive, but instead, he came to say these words. He also saw Kieran step forward, approach him, and ask, “About Rowan, I'll look into it. But there’s something I want to ask you.”

“What is it?” Kyle asked, his face serious.

Julie was also curious, turning to look at him, wondering what he was going to ask.

Kieran pulled a ring from his pocket, the very one Kyle had bought at a high price to give to Sansa.

Kieran handed the ring to Kyle.

Kyle looked up, confused, “What do you mean?”

“Was this ring intended for Sansa?”

Kyle nodded, "Yes, at that time I didn't know that Sansa..." He stopped abruptly, the implication being all too clear.
