Chapter 499 Sleep On the Same Bed
Madame Leigh felt it strange as well.
“Are you sure about that?” Hoyt asked, “Mr. Reed was using his phone to talk yesterday. He’s mute, right?”
“I don’t think so.” The village head frowned. “I’ve heard his voice with my own ears. He was very cold and
indifferent toward us. Whenever he opened his mouth, he would only be asking about Miss McKinnon’s
whereabouts. That’s why I remember him so clearly.”
“Me too,” said Madame Leigh. “He was talking to Mr. King that day, and I didn’t see him using any phoneat all.”
Hoyt was stunned. If that were the case, why was he using his phone when talking to Deirdre?
Also, if Kyran was not mute, wouldn’t he feel inconvenienced talking to Deirdre using the phone? Or was he doing it
on purpose? Was he hiding something from her?
Hoyt frowned and fell into deep thought.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe village head shrugged and said, “Maybe he isn’t feeling well. Or he just doesn’t feel like using his voice today. It
is none of our business anyway Let’s go inside. The weather is getting colder, and it seems to me that it’s going to
rain soon.”
“Hoyt, go bring inside the clothes from the courtyard. I’m going to get some vegetables from the farm for our
dinner.”
Hoyt pressed down the suspicions in his heart and nodded. “Okay”
A second earlier, it was a clear blue sky, but in the next second, the sky turned black, and it started to rain
heavily after Deirdre and Kyran spent some time in Mrs. Cox’s house enjoying her cooking.
Mrs. Cox hastily closed the window and said, “What happened today? It rained so heavily out of the blue. Luckily
I’ve already brought in all of my clothes. By the way, are you guys still going back? It’s dangerous to drive on such a
rainy day. Why don’t you stay for a night?”
Mrs. Cox was right. The village was in a remote area, and most parts of the road were muddy and not asphalted.
There was a mountain next to the road, so it was indeed dangerous to travel in the drizzle.
Listening to the thunder, Deirdre frowned and said, “Yeah. It’s really dangerous.”
“It’s decided then. I’ll go get the bed ready for you two,” Mrs. Cox said as she went to get the blanket and pillow
from the cupboard.
Suddenly, Deirdre realized something. There were only two rooms in this house, and each room had only one bed.
Mrs. Cox slept in one room, so it meant that…
Her cheeks instantly turned red with embarrassment. Although they had been sleeping in the same room while
Kyran was in the hospital, things were different at that time. They were in a hospital, so they wouldn’t think of
anything else. Besides, they were sleeping on two different beds.
“What’s the matter?” Kyran asked with his phone when he realized something was wrong with Deirdre.
Deirdre shook her head. “N-Nothing.”
“Are you sure?” He caressed her cheek with his finger. “Are you not feeling well? Why is your face so red?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDeirdre was stunned and sprang up from her chair when Kyran’s finger touched her cheek.
“Deirdre?” asked Kyran.
“I’m going to wash my face.”
Deirdre calmed her head down with a bucket of cold water. Kyran did not care about it, yet there she was, acting all
flustered. She was certain that Kyran would laugh at her if he learned of her thoughts.
‘We’re just going to sleep for a night. It’s not that we’re going to do anything.’
She calmed herself down. When she came out of the kitchen, Mrs. Cox had already gotten the bed ready.
Deirdre and Kyran went over. At that moment, Kyran noticed there was only one bed. Not only that, but the bed
was small. It went without saying that it was not a problem if Deirdre was sleeping alone, but things would be
different if he was going to sleep with her on this bed.
Suddenly, Kyran understood why Deirdre’s face had turned red earlier. Even he would feel embarrassed when he
realized that he was going to sleep side by side on the same bed with Deirdre.
It had been a long time since he had slept on the same bed with Deirdre. He did not know if he could hold himself
back or not.
