Chapter 396 I’d Keep You Company
Declan opened the door and entered the room just in time to hear his remark. He chuckled and said, “You guys sure are lovey-dovey.”
Deirdre lowered her head in embarrassment and fiddled with the blanket. Kyran asked, “How can I help you?”
1 had something to go over with you initially, but I would like you to teach me now how to keep a straight face when you make such a sick, flirtatious remark?” Declan
muttered, “Do you feel less shame because you’re using the phone to convey the message?”
Kyran replied in a righteous tone, “If the heart is sincere, the remark is no longer flirtatious, but it’s the truth from one’s heart.”
Declan said in a pleading manner, “Alright then, I can’t win an argument against you, anyway. How is Miss McKinnon’s face? Does Dr. Engle think that it can be restored?”
Deirdre raised her head subconsciously when she heard her name. “Hmm. Dr. Engle said that it is slightly difficult, but it should be fine.”

“Hmm.” Deirdre nodded and said, “Thank you to all of you for being so concerned about my face.”
“Why are you thanking us?” Declan smiled mischievously and said, “We’re a family.”
He left when Deirdre’s face started blushing.
Deirdre stayed in Kyran’s room and helped to give him a sponging at night. She was already getting quite used to this that she could do it without feeling nervous, but she still
avoided the crucial part.
Another week passed, and Dr. Engle made arrangements for the surgery. Deirdre lay on the operating table and thought about Kyran’s comforting words. He had said that he
would keep her company.
Deirdre lost consciousness after the anesthesia was administered. When she woke up again, her face was stinging with pain and wrapped in bandages. She was about to touch
her face when Dr. Engle hastily said, “Don’t touch the surgical site. The surgery is a success, but you will still need to let it heal before your can see the effect. If the effect is
unsatisfactory, we’ll need to do it again.”
Deirdre lowered her hands. “Where am I now?”
“On the operating table,” answered Dr. Engle. He could not refrain from saying, “Mr. Reed cares about you. very much. He couldn’t bear to wait in the bed, so he’s waiting for
you at the door specifically.”
“What!?” Deirdre moved abruptly and found herself in pain. However, she was terribly worried and tried to get up. “How could he wait outside when he is still injured?”
“That’s right. A few nurses tried to persuade him repeatedly, but they failed. I told him too that it’s just a reconstruction surgery and not some extremely high-risk surgery, but
he refused to give in.”
Dr. Engle smiled and added, “I can only say that Mr. Reed cares about you too much. I don’t understand how you two are still not dating. Are you willing to let a man who is

Deirdre fell silent. Dr. Engle’s remark deeply moved her, and she began to scrutinize her relationship with Kyran seriously.
She noticed that she did not reject Kyran’s kind intentions, but she wondered if she had feelings for him.
‘Is it fair for Kyran when I don’t have feelings for him?’
Her head was in a chaotic mess. When she was jolted back to reality, she said, “Can you please send me outside?”
The nurse hastily stretched out her hands to help send Deirdre to the door.
Kyran stood in front of the operating theater. When he saw Deirdre, he walked a few steps to her with great difficulty, his hand holding his abdomen.
Deirdre noticed his action and stretched out her arms to help him subconsciously. She could not refrain from feeling tenderhearted. “Why do you insist on coming when you
should be resting in bed? What if your wound were to rupture?”
Kyran replied with his phone, “It has been a week, and it is recovering well. I’ll just need to be careful when I walk. Moreover, I promised you that I’d keep you company.”
