Chapter 252 Blind Date
“They are cheap.” Deirdre was at a loss for words. She felt as if she was choking on something in her
throat. “You’re only going to degrade your status when you wear them.”
“That is precisely why you refused to give them to me, right?”
Deirdre bit her lower lip tightly. Brendan got up from his seat and wiped away Deirdre’s tears with his
hand. He leaned closer to her and said in a hoarse voice,” Deirdre, a person of my status would never
care about false things like this. The value of the cufflinks could never affect my status. I acknowledge
that I wouldn’t be attracted to these cufflinks normally, but they are highly valuable now because you
gave them to me.”
When he was done, he kissed her lips.
Both of them were burning with emotions. Deirdre’s hands were tightly clasped, her body was tense,

In the next few days, Deirdre became more and more familiar with the work at the restaurant and she
also formed a friendly relationship with the staff members. The cleaning lady grabbed Deirdre’s hand
enthusiastically when she came out of the washroom.
“Oh, Deirdre. You’re not so young anymore, so why aren’t you trying to get married yet? Aren’t you
afraid that you will be left all alone when you’re older?”
Deirdre appeared embarrassed. She could not bring herself to declare that she was married, so she
hesitated for a long time before she said, “I’m not looking into marriage yet.”
“Why aren’t you? To be frank, it’s already very difficult for you to settle down given. your current
condition. Why aren’t you seeking a suitable partner for yourself while you’re still young? Could it be
that you want to wait until you’re old before you search for a partner?” The cleaning lady stopped
beating about the bush at this point and said, “My neighbor’s son is a little over 30 years old and he is
about seven or eight years older than you. However, he is a rather outstanding person and he works as
a mechanic at the car garage. He is an honest man, he’s just not so good–looking. But you’re blind, so
you don’t need to care about that. Why don’t I arrange for you two to meet each other tonight?”
Before Deirdre could respond, a waitress heard the conversation and moved closer
to them with a bright smile on her face. “It’s really kind of you that you want to set Deirdre up with a
marriage prospect because you know that she won’t be able to get herself a man given her condition.”
“Indeed. I only considered introducing my neighbor’s son to Deirdre after seeing how well–mannered
and hardworking she is. I wouldn’t care if she was just an ordinary person!”
Deirdre’s expression was solemn. The cleaning lady was holding her hand so enthusiastically that she
refused to let Deirdre go. She could not escape, so she could only whisper, “Thank you, but I’m not
looking…”
“Deirdre, just accept the lady’s painstaking effort. She’s only trying to set up a good marriage.” The
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwaitress was quick–witted and said, “Just meet him and you can. decide later if you find him
unsuitable.”
Deirdre accepted the cleaning lady’s enthusiastic offer rashly because she did not manage to say no to
the cleaning lady. However, she had not expected that the cleaning lady would send that person her
way the same night.
She was taking a break when the cleaning lady urged her by saying, “Just talk to him. around the
corner first, alright? There’s still time until your next performance. Take this time to get to know each
other first.”
The man was quite chivalrous as he asked Deirdre, “Would that be alright? I can take a seat and wait
for you if you’re busy.”
Deirdre agreed so she could get it over with earlier. “Let’s take a seat.”
Both of them had just arrived at the corner when Brendan walked into the restaurant. He saw the piano
on the side, yet no one was sitting there. He asked while he placed a food order; “I thought there was a
newly–hired pianist at the restaurant? Where is the pianist?”
The waitress was astonished by Brendan’s outstanding appearance, feeling envious of Deirdre in her
heart. ‘Deirdre is just a hideous blind woman, yet even the manager has been praising her incessantly.‘
