Chapter 370 I Don’t Want to Keep You Waiting
“She probably doesn’t want to see me,” typed Kyran. “This is because there’s someone. who’s willing to sacrifice
his job to stay with her. I’ve seen their photos. She’s living at happy life now. If this is what she wants, I should leave
her alone. As for me, I just need to always remind myself of my past mistakes so that I won’t repeat them while
loving the people I want to protect.”
There was a noticeable pause when he reached the part where he wanted to protect the people he loved. It was as
if he was talking about Deirdre, causing the tips of Deirdre’s ears to turn red with embarrassment.
Kyran then continued. “She taught me how to respect others and what was important to me. Perhaps this is the will
of God. He wants me to appear in my best form before the person I like.”
‘Appear in his best form, huh? To be honest, Kyran is indeed the finest man I have ever met.
Deirdre lowered her head. Kyran did not continue the conversation and asked, “Can I have a cup of water?”

Deirdre snapped herself out of her thoughts and rose to her feet. She clearly remembered where the water cup
was, so she poured half a cup and handed it to him. “Here.”
However, Kyran did not take it. Instead, he held her hand and said, “Deirdre, I understand that you think I’m
courting you and treating you so nicely because I’m taking you as her replacement. I admit that I was attracted to
you at the church because you’re blind, but your personality and gentleness are what draw me to you.

“The things between her and me are already in the past. It happened long ago, and I think I’m ready to start a new
relationship. I don’t think of you as her. I really like you.”
It seemed that he had prepared his speech a long time ago. He just needed to pull it out from his draft, as there
was no pause between his words.
Even though Deirdre couldn’t see with her eyes, she could sense the expectant and fiery emotions in his eyes.
His palm that was holding her finger was warm. For a moment, she had the feeling that her hand was going to get
burned.
A pang of nervousness clutched at her chest, and she was tongue-tied.
She was not opposed to Kyran’s courtship. It was just that…
“Kyran, since you’re being honest with me, I need to tell you something as well.” She took at deep breath to calm
herself down and said, “I had a very terrible and toxic relationship in
the past. It made me… unable to start a new relationship. I can’t fall in love with other people now. It may last for
five years, ten years, or even a lifetime.”
There was no way she could forget the pain that Brendan had inflicted on her.
She had liked him since she was young and loved him with all her heart when she grew up. He had trampled and
crushed her heart on the ground as if it was something insignificant to him, and she had sacrificed too much
because of this relationship.

She had lost too much.
Deirdre did not have the courage to persuade herself to trust and love another person. She needed time to heal
her wounds, and Brendan would be her nightmare for the rest of her life.
“You’re shanking.”
Kyran held her hand, and only then did Deirdre realize she was shaking.
She forced a smile and said, “So, you shouldn’t fall in love with me. I’m not the right person for you. I don’t want to
waste your time or disappoint you, so I think we’re better off just being friends.”
Kyran looked at her deeply and released his grip.
“Dierdre, do you think I’m joking when I say I like you? I like you and only you alone. I won’t go to look for another
woman. I can wait until you’re ready to be in a new relationship, but I’ll be very sad if you’re just trying to push me
away.”
“I’m sorry…” Deirdre bit her lips. “I just don’t want to keep you hanging and make you wait. for me.”
