Chapter 347 Pass Her the Phone
Deirdre was stunned. She felt for the phone in her pocket and realized that it was turned off after being out of
battery.
She stretched out her hand and said, “Pass it to me.”
The phone was given to Deirdre, and she got up to pick up the call. “Hello, Madame Russell.”
“Silly girl!” Eilis was almost in tears. “Why aren’t you picking up your phone? You scared me! I looked for you
everywhere for a night and almost thought that you were buried under the snow!”
“I’m sorry…” Deirdre sniffed. She had been so worried about Kyran that she had forgotten to call and update Eilis
about her whereabouts.
Madame Russell said, “As long as you’re safe and sound. Where are you now?”
Deirdre had no idea, either. She said truthfully, “Mr. Reed got sick and was admitted to the hospital after helping me
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe other day. I sought help from Mr. King to take me to the hospital, and it is quite some distance away from
Village Alnwick.”
“I see… Are you cold then? Would you like me to send you warmer clothes?”
“It’s fine.” Deirdre smiled. “Mr. Reed has already awakened. I’ll be back when the hospital has examined and
confirmed that he is fine.”
“Alright then.” Eilis remembered something and said, “However, I called up Tobey because I panicked. He got in
touch with people here to look for you. I’m afraid that he might not have slept the whole night, and perhaps he
would have hopped on a plane to come back if he weren’t so busy. I shall call him and update him about your
situation.”
“Sure.”
After ending the call, Deirdre blushed as she thought about how she had troubled way too many people.
She passed the phone to Kyran, and he asked, “What happened? Is Madame Russell very worried about you?”
“Yes.” Deirdre was very embarrassed. “I’ll be leaving by noon. It would be strange for her not to panic after I came
over and vanished for the whole night without informing her prior.”
“Had you been waiting for me since noon?”
Deirdre nodded and said immediately, “However, it was because I was too bored. The lounge of the church was
warm, so I thought I’d go there to warm myself. Oh right.”
She pulled the plastic–wrapped medicine out of her pocket. “I brought you this, but I believe that you don’t need it
anymore because you’re in a hospital.”
She was planning on changing the topic of conversation when Kyran suddenly held her hand beyond her
expectations. Despite her blindness, she could feel the man’s blazing hot gaze on her face.
Deirdre was stunned, and her heart was racing. Kyran’s lips moved, and he exerted some strength in his grip.
All of a sudden, the phone rang at a bad time and interrupted the ambiance between them. Deirdre immediately
pulled back her hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyran picked up the phone with a frown and heard a gentle voice coming from the other end of the call. “Hello, I’m
Tobey Russell.”
The call was hung up abruptly, and Deirdre was stunned. She had a keen sense of hearing and asked, “Was the
caller earlier Tobey?”
“No,” Kyran answered quickly, his expression very unpleasant. “You misheard.”
However, the call came once again.
Kyran wanted to hang up right away this time, but Deirdre asked cautiously, “Aren’t you going to take the call, Mr.
Reed?”
Kyran could only suppress his anger this time as Tobey’s voice sounded. “Hello, Mr. Reed. Did you accidentally hang
up the call? I’m not a stranger but Deirdre’s friend. Will you please pass her the phone?”
“It’s Tobey.”
Deirdre’s eyes lit up while Kyran’s dark pupils turned dim. He passed her the phone.
“It’s me, Tobey.”
Tobey was relieved to hear Deirdre’s voice. “Deirdre, will you please inform my
mother or me first before you go anywhere the next time? Do you know how worried I am?”
“I’m sorry, Tobey. Today’s incident is an accident, and I won’t do that again.”
