Chapter 473 Quarrel With Your Boyfriend?
If Deirdre were to fall, she would be drowned to death even if she survived the fall.
Deirdre felt a shiver down her spine. She stretched out her hand to grab the vegetation roots next to her and found
that they were very sturdy.
She took a deep breath and prepared physically and mentally before grabbing the vegetation and moving to the
right on the slope, which was almost 90 degrees.
A few wounds opened up on her hands from the friction, and there were countless scratches on her body as well.
She felt the burning, piercing pain in her palms, but she did not have the courage to slow down at all. She loosened
her grip only when she finally arrived at a not-so-steep path.
Her palms were covered in blood.
Deirdre wanted to cry from the pain but endured it with her teeth clenched and continued to walk down the path.
She was afraid that the man would come after her. She had already lost the strength to run, even though she could
see the place a little clearer now.

voice asked, “ Who’s there?”
Deirdre widened her eyes and spoke in a pressing voice. “Save me! Please help me!”
The middle-aged woman was still muttering when Deirdre was brought to her house down the mountain, “Silly girl,
why did you go to such a dangerous mountain? You fell from the mountain, and it’s fortunate that you survived the
ordeal. Look at your body. Not a patch of your skin is unscathed, and your face...”
Deidre smiled. “My face was scarred from the start.”
“Is that so?” The woman heaved a sigh out of sympathy and prepared a bath for Deirdre to wash up.
“There are too many wounds on your body, and you will certainly be in a lot of pain if you wash in warm water. Just
sponge yourself with cold water, and I’ll dress your wounds in a while.”
“Alright...”
Deirdre walked into the bathroom, removed her clothes, and soaked her entire body in the tub. The water was cold,
yet it allowed her to feel lucky to be alive.
She soaked her head in the water, and the memory of Kyran surged into her mind frantically. She stuck her head
out, choking on water.
Coincidentally, the woman entered the bathroom and was startled by the sight of the scene. She hastily dropped
the clothes in her hands and approached Deirdre. “What’s going on? Is the water too cold? Would you like me to
add some hot water?”
Deirdre teared up from choking and shook her head with all her might. “I... I’m fine. I put my head under the water
accidentally and choked.”
“Ah ah. Come out quickly. The bath is only for you to wash up. It’s not good for you to soak in cold water.”
“Hmm.”
The woman passed some clothes to Deirdre. “The clothes are from when I was younger. They are outdated, but
they should do just fine keeping you warm.”
Deidre got dressed, and the woman asked while she dressed Deirdre’s wounds, “Do you remember the phone
number of a close family member? How about your relatives?”
Deirdre was caught in a daze. When she was jolted back to reality, the woman asked again.
“I don’t have a family, and I don’t have relatives either.”

“Are all dead.”
The woman heaved a sigh. “You still have someone that you can reach out to, right?”
Deirdre could not help thinking about Kyran, yet she began to hesitate when Charlene’s remark surfaced in her
mind. She could not confirm if what Charlene had said was true.
However, it was enough to stir fear in her, even if there was only a slim possibility.
At the thought of this, Deirdre’s face turned ghastly pale, and she felt her insides churning.
The woman assumed that she had said something wrong, so she said cautiously, “Why do you look so pale all of a
sudden? Is it because of your boyfriend? Did you quarrel with him?”
‘Boyfriend?’
Deirdre found it absurd. Before her abduction, she had been dreaming about going to Germia with Kyran, but she
did not expect she would actually be stepping into a dangerous situation.
She did not understand what Brendan's goal was. ‘Is he trying to mess with me? Why is he disguising himself as
someone else to be with me?’
“No. I’ve just been caught off guard, and I can’t think of who to reach out to.”
