Chapter 424 Jealousy
“Okay.”Declan closed the door as he was on his way out.At that moment, Kyran noticed the dirt on Deirdre’s hand and typed, “Why is your hand so dirty?”Deirdre took a tissue paper and wiped the dirt off. “My phone dropped on the floor just now. I guess that’s when I got it dirty,” she explained.“You should have let me know about it. Don’t you know how dirty and cold the floor is?” Kyran went to take a towel and helped Deirdre clean her hand seriously.“You were talking about work with Mr. King. If it were a normal time, I would’ve asked you for your help,” Deirdre said with a chuckle.After cleaning her hand, Kyran picked up his phone. “Next time, you can come to me and ask for my help even if he’s here. He’s not as important as you.”“If Mr. King heard what you said, he'd be very sad.” Deirdre laughed.“Putting a girlfriend in the first place is what all boyfriends should do. He shouldn't be sad at all. Instead, he should be envious. But even if he's envious about it, t
Chapter 425 There Is a Flower On the Cigarette
Dr. Engle was surprised. He had assumed Deirdre wanted to relieve her discomfort or ask about the condition of her face. It was never in his wildest imagination that she was asking him the brand of a cigarette.As if she could read his mind, Deirdre explained, “I smelled it occasionally and thought its scent was good, so I wanted to buy it and give it to Kyran as a gift.”“Ah, I see.” Dr. Engle chuckled. “It seems like you guys are ready to announce your relationship. Does this mean that I can expect your marriage news soon?”Deirdre was stunned, and her face turned red with embarrassment. “How did you know about that, Dr. Engle?”“I’m not dumb. You two were holding hands so tightly when you came to me yesterday. I can’t think of any other explanations if you two aren’t a couple.”It was only now that Deirdre realized they had been holding hands the whole time yesterday.Her face turned even redder, and Dr. Engle laughed. “There's no need to feel embarrassed. I can see that both
Chapter 426 You Don’t Trust Me Anymore?
Deirdre felt as if all her strength had left her body. She remembered that the flower on Winston had four petals. All of the petals were closed. It was in the budding stage while signifying undying wills.‘It isn’t Winston, is it?’When tears streamed down from her eyes, Dr. Engle was stunned.“What happened, Miss McKinnon? Why are you crying?”Deirdre clenched her fists. Her body was still shaking profusely, and she explained, “Nothing. I am just sad that I can’t buy this brand of cigarettes for Kyran.”“You want to get this as a gift for Mr. Reed, right? But he already has it, so there’s no point for you to buy it for him anymore. Besides, judging from how much Mr. Reed loves you, I think he’ll be very happy even if you give him a flower you picked from the roadside.”Deirdre wiped the tears off and smiled. “You’re right. I’ll go figure something else out then.”“Alright.”Deirdre felt as if a weight had been lifted off her chest after coming out of the office. However, the f
Chapter 427 Brendan Is In the Restaurant
Before this, Kyran held her hand whenever they walked together. Deirdre was stunned for a moment, and disappointment flashed across her eyes. The moment she put her hand on his arm, she suddenly changed her direction and grabbed his hand.Kyran froze for a moment, and Deirdre assured him by holding his hand even tighter. “I think this will be more convenient.”Kyran’s gaze was gentle as he looked at her. He grabbed her hand back, and they left the hospital.There were many restaurants around the hospital. They found a rather clean restaurant and ordered a private room.It was warm inside the private room. When ordering food, Deirdre asked Kyran, “Is there any food you can’t eat right now?”“You can just order anything you want.”Deirdre thought for a moment and asked the waiter for recommendations. When a dish about Brussels sprouts was mentioned, she frowned.“This is one of the specialties of our restaurant. You can give it a try, miss. I’m sure you’ll like it if you’re not
Chapter 428 We Finally Met
“I’m not joking! It’s real! All of our tables and rooms were fully reserved today, but when he came late, he just gave his name, and our manager prepared a room for him. Other than Mr. Brighthall, I can’t think of anyone else who’s capable of doing that.”“Seriously? What is he doing here? I thought he was in Neve?” “I heard that he’s here for treatment.” The two waiters did not know that Deirdre had been listening to their conversation not far away. Her blood ran cold.‘Brendan is in this restaurant?’Her pupils shrank. ‘How can this be?’There were many restaurants in this place, and this restaurant was not that popular either. What were the odds that he would show up here at this restaurant simultaneously with her?Suddenly, Deirdre remembered something. When they arrived at this restaurant, the waiter told them that all of their tables and rooms were fully booked. However, Kyran just said something to the waiter, and they gave them a private room. A chill rushed down her
Chapter 429 Who Is It? Come Out Now!
“That’s my pleasure. But you need to take care of yourself, Mr. Brighthall,” said Mr. Taylor. “Anyway, has your condition improved after your treatment?”“Yeah. The doctor has already arranged an operation for me.”“A lot of things have happened in Neve after you left. When everyone heard that you were seriously ill, many people tried to climb up and pull you down from the throne. The media and newspapers are looking everywhere for your news as well. Luckily, you came here. If you were still in Neve, there would be a lot of people waiting for you day and night outside of the hospital.”Brendan did not say anything, and Mr. Taylor continued. “Are you going to postpone your marriage with Ms. McKinney?”“Yeah,” Brendan replied calmly. “It’ll be postponed indefinitely.”“What a shame. I was waiting to join your wedding ceremony,” Mr. Taylor said as he washed his hands at the water tap. “But you can have the wedding any time after you’ve fully recovered. At that time, you’ll be success
Chapter 430 Madame Brighthall
Deirdre’s shirt and hair were wet with sweat. The air was cold, and her entire body was shaking with fear.Even though a door blocked her away from Brendan, she was still assaulted by a wave of coldness that chilled her to the bone. The oppression that came with the man from the moment he was born seemed like an invisible hand that grabbed her by her neck, suffocating her.Fear and nervousness were all she felt during those few minutes.After Brendan left, she realized how much she feared this man.She dropped to the floor as if all energy had left her body. She wrapped her arms around herself and took a few deep breaths until she completely calmed down.Then, her phone rang again. She picked it up this time and answered, “Hello.”There was only the typing sound from the other side of the call. Deirdre came around to her senses and realized it was Kyran.So did that mean that Kyran was the one who had called her twice?Brendan clearly did not know it was her inside the cubicl
Chapter 431 The Calls Did Not Come From Him
“I’ll come with you, mother.”Deirdre came to realize the situation and immediately turned around to walk back.There was only one thought on her mind now, and that was to ensure that Madame Brighthall remained unaware of her presence there.It was their agreement. Madame Brighthall would help her to leave while her part of the deal was to ensure that Brendan would not find her for the rest of her life.Deirdre was so overwhelmed with emotions that she walked faster and faster. She did not notice a plant placed by the side of the wall, so she tripped and toppled over.She did not expect that the pain would not come. A pair of huge hands caught her and pulled her into his arms.Deirdre felt her eyes stung with tears upon smelling his familiar, masculine scent and felt the warmth of his hug. “Kyran…” She sobbed.Kyran’s body that was hugging her tensed up. He asked through his phone, “What’s going on?”Deirdre shook her head with all her might. She missed the sense of security
