Chapter 341 He’s Sick

Deirdre made her way to the left side of the yard and stood against the wall while she said, “It should be here.”

Kyran turned on the flashlight on his phone and saw it. He opened up the switchboard and discovered that it was a

little more complicated than a tripped breaker. It was fortunate that the toolbox was nearby.

“Can you hold the phone?”

He needed someone to shine the light.

Deirdre nodded. “Sure.”

She took the phone and was assigned to stand at a suitable position by Kyran. It was fortunate that there was no

wind in the yard, but she was still shivering in the cold.

Kyran removed his jacket suddenly and draped it across Deirdre’s body.

Deirdre felt no longer cold when she was wrapped in the man’s jacket with his warmth. Yet, she remembered that

Kyran did not dress warmly either, so she wanted to remove the jacket. “It’s fine, Mr. Reed…”

Kyran insisted and helped her to button the jacket before he continued his task.

Deirdre felt comforted for some unknown reason as she smelled the scent of the man’s jacket. She was caught in a

daze when she remembered the conversation that did not carry on at the international trade center.

‘What was he going to say?

‘Or, what was he going to do?‘

She could not see if Kyran tried to get closer on purpose at the time, and she had no idea whether it was just her

wrong impression. She could not refrain from asking,” Did you approach me at the trade center, Mr. Reed? Were

you trying to tell me something? What was it about?”

Kyran’s action of utilizing the tools halted to a stop before he continued. He had only ended his repair when Eilis

opened the door to inform him that the power was back and took the phone from Deirdre to type his speech.

“Come and meet me at the church’s lounge area tomorrow afternoon. I’ll tell you in

person.”

Deirdre returned to the room and lay on the bed with her eyes wide open. She was

utterly awake.

She wanted to know what it was that he could only tell her tomorrow. It was as if he needed to make up his mind or

something, and it made her feel uneasy for no apparent reason.

Despite feeling perplexed, Deirdre fell asleep at last, and it was already eight by the time she woke up.

She changed into fresh clothes, and Eilis said to her as soon as she walked outside,” There’s some oatmeal in the

pot. I’ll get you a bowl. Take a seat first.”

Deirdre took two steps before she asked, “Where is Mr. Reed?”

“He left early in the morning. I came outside after waking up and found him already dressed fully. He bid farewell to

me with a voice message before he left.”

‘Left?‘ Deirdre rubbed her palms together to warm herself. ‘That’s quick.‘

“I wouldn’t be able to sleep soundly last night had he not fixed the breaker yesterday. I felt bad for troubling him.”

Eilis‘ voice was heard coming from the kitchen. “Oh right, he seemed to be sick. He was constantly coughing and

didn’t stop even when he was walking. He didn’t look so well and was in a rush. I didn’t manage to pass him some

medicine before he was gone.”

‘Sick?‘

Deirdre was caught in a daze and could not help being astounded when she remembered the jacket from

yesterday.

He had been fixing the switchboard for more than ten minutes, wearing thin clothes in the freezing weather. How

could he possibly not be sick?

Deirdre felt extremely guilty in her heart and said, “Madame Russell, you can pass me the medicine first.”

“Why? Are you going to meet Mr. Reed today?” Eilis walked over with a bowl. “They may not necessarily be coming

into the mountain due to the road closure from the heavy snow. You might catch a cold if you head outside on such

a cold day and might not even be able to deliver the medicine.”

“That won’t happen.” Deirdre spoke softly. “We have an appointment.”

“What?” Eilis understood the situation and smiled mischievously. “If you end up with Mr. Reed, you’re going to move

to Eastgene, right? It’s a good thing too as I’ll get to travel to Eastgene. If you can’t be my daughter–in–law, I’m fine

with being your godmother too.”

Deirdre blushed scarlet. A news report flashed on the television. “A reporter took photos of Brendan Brighthall

being admitted to the hospital late at night for emergency surgery. He has yet to be discharged. It seems that he

was injured severely during the previous incident, so his life is at stake.”
