Chapter 425 There Is a Flower On the Cigarette
Dr. Engle was surprised. He had assumed Deirdre wanted to relieve her discomfort or ask about the condition of
her face. It was never in his wildest imagination that she was asking him the brand of a cigarette
As if she could read his mind, Deirdre explained, “I smelled it occasionally and thought its scent was good, so i
wanted to buy it and give it to Kyran as a gift.”
“Ah, I see” Dr. Engle chuckled. “It seems like you guys are ready to announce your relationship. Does this. mean
that I can expect your marriage news soon?”
Deirdre was stunned, and her face turned red with embarrassment. “How did you know about that, Dr. Engle?”
“I’m not dumb. You two were holding hands so tightly when you came to me yesterday. I can’t think of any other
explanations if you two aren’t a couple.”
It was only now that Deirdre realized they had been holding hands the whole time yesterday.

you like each other, and it’s only a matter of time before you’re together. Now that you’ve finally! made it, I’m truly
happy for you two.”
After that, Dr. Engle picked up the cigarette and looked at it.
He said, “This cigarette…”
“Do you know what brand it is?” asked Deirdre.
“I’ve never seen this brand before,” replied Dr. Engle.
Winston was a famous local brand in Neve. It hadn’t been introduced here yet, and Deirdre’s heart leaped into her
throat. “Is there any logo in it?”
“Yes, there is a logo.” Dr. Engle observed the logo with a magnifying glass. “There is a flower on it and some tiny
words. Let me read it first.”
“Flower?”
Deirdre felt a buzz in her head. She kept looking for the logo of Winston in her memories. She remembered that
she had seen a flower near the tip of the cigarette when Brendan was smoking.
For a moment, Deirdre felt her blood run cold, and she had the urge to run away from here.
What if it was really Winston?
There was no way Kyran would know about this brand since he had only returned from Germia. Once it was
confirmed that it was Winston, then Kyran would certainly be Brendan. When that happened, what should she do?
Deirdre’s face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, and beads of sweat began to ooze out of her palm profusely.
Meanwhile, Dr. Engle’s eyes glowed, and he said, “Aha! I think I know it!”
Then, he looked at Deirdre, stunning her.
Frowning, he asked, “What happened, Miss McKinnon? You look pale. I already know the brand of the cigarette. Do
you want to know about it?”
Deirdre bit her lower lip. She did not know whether she wanted to know the answer. Her heart was filled with fear

However, on second thought, was she really going to keep running away from the truth like this?
Deirdre clenched her fist tightly and mustered up her courage. “Please… Please tell me, Dr. Engle.”
“This is Mr. Reed’s cigarette, isn’t it? He gave me a packet before. From its logo and words, it’s a brand for Germia,
so you can’t find it anywhere in our country. Where did you smell it before?”
Deidre froze for a few seconds. Her eyes were wide open, and she felt like the stone weighing on her chest was
gone.
“I… I smelled it in the corridor,” she said. “Dr. Engle, are you sure it’s a brand from Germia?”
“Yes, I’m sure of it. We won’t be able to find this type of cigarette in our country. It’s made differently. Besides, the
words on it are Germian.”
“Then what about the flower?”
“The flower? I guess it’s a part of the logo. It has seven petals and a strange shape. I’ve never seen this kind of
flower before.”
