Chapter 432 In Such a Rush to Meet My Parents?
All Deirdre needed to do was to find out if Brendan was with Madame Brighthall.
âDeirdre, Deirdre.â
Deirdre raised her head when she was jolted back to reality.
Kyran paused for a moment. âI called out to you many times.â
âIâm sorry.â Deirdre seemed to be very vexed with her current behavior of not being responsible. âI was thinking about somethingâ¦â
âI can see that. Youâve been acting differently since earlier.â Kyran appeared to be slightly dejected. âIs it because of Tobey?â
Deirdre was stunned for a moment. She came to understand Kyran and denied it by saying, âNo. Itâs not related to Tobey.â
She knew what he cared about and said, âKyran, my unusual mood is not related to Tobeyâs presence.â
âIf that is the case, why wonât you tell me then?â
Deirdre was rendered speechless while Kyran typed, âForget it. I wonât force it on you anyway.
Everyone deserves to have their secrets, and so should you. Itâs only that I hope you can be fully focused and attentive on your date with me.â
The word âdateâ sent Deirdreâs heart racing. However, her heart was weighed down with anxiety, and it was a truly uncomfortable feeling. She bit her lower lip and said, âIâm sorry. I was distracted because I bumped into the mother of the Brighthall Groupâs CEO, Madame Brighthall, outside.â
âWhat?â
Deirdre inhaled a deep breath. âKyran, do you know who Brendan Brighthall is?â
Kyran typed, âIt would be strange if I didnât know who he is. That person is so well-known that Iâve heard. about him in Eastgene.â
âYes⦠He is staying in the same hospital as us. Coincidentally, Iâm acquainted with his mother. I heard.
Madame Brighthallâs voice in the restaurantâs corridor earlier, which is why I found it rather strange.â
âWhat did you find rather strange?â
Deirdre felt a knot in the pit of her stomach. She confessed hastily, âI was surprised because Madame Brighthall spends her days at home mostly due to her poor health. She seldom travels, and she would rather walk if it is just a short journey. Why would she suddenly travel the long journey just to come here⦠Kyran, wouldnât you find it strange if you were in my place?â
Kyran paused for a moment and typed, âDeirdre, it seems youâre the strange one.â
âMe?â
âYou seem to pay close attention to the Brighthalls. Madame Brighthallâs son is in the hospital, so it is only natural for her to travel the long distance willingly. She canât just do nothing while her son is in the hospital, right?â
Deirdre fell silent because Kyran was right. She felt discomposed for no apparent reason.
âWhen will your surgery begin, Kyran?â
âThree days later.â
Deirdre nodded. âCan we leave after your surgery has ended and you have recuperated?â
Kyran chuckled. âAre you in such a rush to leave so you can meet my parents?â
Deirdre was stunned, but she came to understand the situation soon afterward. She was embarrassed.
and shy as she said in a muffled voice, âDonât tease me.â
âIâm not.â Kyranâs mechanical voice sounded as if he was serious. âWhen Iâm well, come with me, alright?â
âCome with you? Where?â
âWhere would you like to go? Germia, Eastgene, or any other place, we can go anywhere you like.â
Deirdre felt warm and fuzzy in her heart upon hearing how he cared about her. She remembered something and said, âYou donât want the company anymore?â
âI can work remotely for the company, but Iâll take you to travel around the world first. Youâve been enduring hardships for so many years, so itâs time for you to be happy.â
âTravel around the world⦠That sounds amazing.â
The wish in the depths of her heart was not to be the wife of a wealthy man from an influential family nor live a lavish life but to spend her days with someone she loved. However, Brendan refused to fulfill that trivial wish of hers.
