Chapter 306 Do You Have Someone You Like?
As Madame Russell was speaking, she winked at Tobey
Tobey took the hint swiftly. Noticing that Deirdre was still hesitant, he said smilingly, “Don’t worry about my mother,
Deirdre. She still has sewing work to do and is not interested in watching musicals. We shall go ahead ourselves and
consider it a diversion. You’ve been busy with the yard for days, so it’s time for you to rest and relax your mind.”
Deirdre agreed with his remark. Some enjoyed musicals, and those who did not would find them boring. Perhaps
Madame Russell would find it a waste of time if she were to go.
“Alright then, Tobey and I shall go.”
“Go, go!” Madame Russell wanted to shut the door eagerly. “It will be fine even if you come home late!”
After the door was shut, Tobey cleared his throat and said, “That’s just how my mother is. She’s always so easily
excitable. She is not trying to do anything. She just doesn’t want you to feel lonely. Don’t mind her”

She could feel that she was smiling more during the time she spent with the Russells, even though her heart hidden
in her chest cavity was still so scarred and battered by someone that it could only beat.
Deirdre held Tobey’s arm and was led to the church soon. They were assigned seats by the staff members, and it
did not take long before the musical began.
As they listened to the cast’s elated voices, Tobey said softly, “Don’t you find it strange?”
“What?”
“If there is an entertainment event in the village, it will usually be a movie screening that the people. commonly
enjoy. It’s my first time watching a musical in the village.”
Deirdre pondered for a while and figured that Tobey was right indeed. She could not figure it out either.
Tobey chuckled and added, “Perhaps those developers enjoy watching musicals, but it is actually a good thing for
you because you can listen to it with your ears.”
Deirdre nodded. The musical was very inclusive for her because it was mostly played with voices and songs. The
ambiance was controlled to perfection, and Deirdre felt as if she was experiencing it personally, albeit she could not
see.
On the other hand, Tobey could not take his eyes off Deirdre’s face for a moment next to her.
Even though the woman’s face was disfigured and she had lost her prior delicately beautiful face, the tenderness of
her face did not change for the slightest bit. Her eyes were lowered, and the lighting on the stage illuminated her
face and charmed Tobey at every moment.
His heart was racing.
Deirdre noticed the gaze from her side halfway through the musical and turned her face subconsciously. Tobey? Are
you looking at me?”
Tobey came to react to the situation by letting out a muffled laugh. “How are you so sensitive? Could it be that this
is a woman’s sixth sense?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe did not answer her question straightforwardly, but his remark insinuated that he was looking at Deirdre.
Deirdre chuckled and said, “I can’t explain it either. Perhaps this is how our sensory perception works.”
Upon saying that, Deirdre asked, “Why aren’t you looking at the stage? Are you not interested in the musical?”
“No.”
“No? What is it then?” Deirdre was confused. “Do you have something to say to me?”
“Hmm.” Tobey clenched his fists. He had never felt as nervous as he was now, not even when he was queried for a
project at work.
In the end, he mustered the courage to say, “Deirdre, do you have someone you like?”
“Someone I like?”
The pair of cold, dark eyes flashed past Deirdre’s mind beyond her control. Soon afterward, her expression
changed ever so slightly.
It was not that she still had feelings for Brendan, but it was instinctive. It was because he was the only person that
she had ever loved.
