Chapter 332 What a Coincidence
Deirdre froze for a moment when Kyran did the same thing. However, she soon snapped herself back to reality by
shaking her head.
‘Why am I thinking of him again? It isn’t that Brendan is the only man in this world who would do that.‘
The snow was getting heavier as they moved forward, and small piles of snow were on their shoulders. Deirdre did
not know if it was because Kyran was holding her hand that she did not feel that cold.
When they arrived at the door, Kyran stopped and typed on his phone, “We’re here.”
Deirdre patted the snow on her body and said, “Thank you.”
She went forward to open the gate, but Kyran kept standing still. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Mr. Reed,
do you want to come in and have a cup of tea?”
“Maybe next time,” Kyran quickly typed a few words on his phone. After that, he thought for a while and asked,
“Didn’t you ask me if I had something to say to you last night?
“Yes, I indeed had something to say to you, but let’s talk when we meet next time. At that time, I hope you can

Deirdre was stunned. By the time she came around to her senses, Kyran had already left.
She entered the courtyard, and Eilis was setting up the fire. When she saw Deirdre, she hastily took a towel to help
wipe the snow off her body.
“What took you so late today? I was going to call you after setting up the fire.”
Deirdre smiled and replied, “Since there’s only a little bit of work left in the yard, I decided to finish it off before
coming back.”
“Silly kid. Won’t you feel cold? I was going to help you after I finished mending these clothes. Anyway, sit down and
warm yourself up first. I’ll go get you a cup of water.”
“Okay.”
Deirdre sat down, enjoying the warmth from the fire that petted her cheeks. She stretched her arms forward, and
after chasing the coldness away, she thought about the things that Kyran had said.
He had said that he had something to ask her and that he hoped she could answer
his question honestly.
Did that mean that he had something to ask her yesterday?
Deirdre tried to remember what had happened yesterday, but to her chagrin, nothing came to her mind.
The weather became colder after the snow.
The clothes Deirdre wore weren’t able to protect her from the chilling wind. The only clothes that fit her were Eilis‘
old clothes.
Therefore, Eilis decided to bring Deirdre into the town. The only problem was that getting around there was not
easy. There were only two bus trips–one in the morning and one in the afternoon. However, it would be too late if
they took the bus in the afternoon.
“Mr. King and his team were supposed to come over to the mountains for inspection, but I guess they’ll go back
soon since the road hasn’t thawed completely yet,” said Eilis.
Deirdre bit her lips and fell into contemplation.
She had not brought anything with her when she came here and had been bothering the Russells for a month. She
did not want to bother them so much anymore with a trivial matter such as her clothes.
“It’s okay, Madame Russell… I think this is fine…”

need to put on something that matches your age. Maybe something that’ll make you look nice.”
‘Something that makes me look nice?‘
It had been such a long time since she heard this word.
Deirdre let out a dry smile and said, “I’m already used to it. Besides, the winter will soon be over before we even
realize it, so I don’t want you to waste money buying new clothes for me. You should keep the money for Toby. I’m
sure he’ll need a lot of money since he’s staying in town.”
Eilis knew what Deirdre was worried about after listening to her explanation. She grabbed her hand and said with a
smile, “You don’t have to worry about that. Although Toby doesn’t own a big corporation, he can still afford to take
care of the
two of us!”
Deirdre’s eyes turned red around the rims when she heard what Eilis said and lowered her head.
Eilis draped a jacket over Deirdre’s shoulder and led her to the village’s entrance. There, they ran into Declan, who
was leaving.
“Mr. King, what a coincidence. Are you guys going back to town?”
“Yeah,” Declan said as he snuffed out the cigarette. He looked at a car and asked, ” What’s the matter?”
