Chapter 669: Chapter 670

“Glenna, how are you?”

Glenna chuckled dryly and said, “I’m fine. I feel bad for making you worried. I was too busy with work…

a while back.”

Deirdre accepted the excuse and said smilingly, “It’s fine that you’re busy with work for a short while, as long as you’re still willing to call me.”

“Why would I not be willing to call you? I treat you like a friend from the bottom of my heart.” Glenna felt choked up upon saying that.

Deirdre said, “Are you free today? Would you like to come over for dinner at my place tonight?”

“Will Kyran be there as well?”

“Of course. He's living with me.” Deirdre paused for a moment. “Or would you like to meet me with just the two of us?”

“No, I’m only asking casually.” Glenna chuckled forcefully.

“I’ll be there tonight.Remember to cook me my favorite stuffed eggplant. It’s been a long time since I last had it, and I miss having it.”

Deirdre could not help laughing. “Sure.”

After ending the call, Kyran came upstairs. He tilted her chin and kissed her before saying, “I overheard you talking on the phone with someone when I came out of the study. Who was it? You sounded happy.”

“It was Glenna. She has finally come around after so many days.” Deirdre had a faint smile on her face and felt an ineffable joy in her. Kyran’s dark eyes dimmed for a moment, and he asked in a seemingly casual manner, “What did you talk about on the phone?”

Deirdre did not notice the difference in Kyran’s tone because she was distracted with joy. She turned on the tap and washed her hands. “Oh, nothing much. She was busy with work and didn’t have much time to talk. I invited her to come over for dinner tonight. We should invite Declan while we’re at it so they can bury the hatchet and resolve all their previous grievances.”

“Sure.” Kyran was relieved. “I shall call up Declan now.”

“Hmm.”

He headed to the balcony to make the call. When he returned, Deirdre had already begun to put on her coat, and he could tell that she was heading out judging by her action.

“Where are you going?”

Deirdre said, “Grocery shopping. We need to get some ingredients since both of them are coming.

Moreover, Glenna has requested stuffed eggplants, and we have run out of eggplants in our fridge.”

“I’ll come with you,” Kyran said without hesitation. He grabbed his jacket upstairs, got Deirdre a scarf while he was at it, and wrapped it around her neck.

The couple headed out together. The sun was very warm, and Deirdre squinted comfortably. Many people turned around and looked at them frequently along the way because they made a beautiful couple.

After entering the supermarket, Kyran pushed the shopping cart while Deirdre was right by his side.

They headed to the daily necessities section when they were done with the cooking ingredients.

“Kyran, I was wondering if we should get another bag of flour as a backup. I feel that it will still be some time before we move to Germia.”

Deirdre walked ahead and suddenly felt the man’s footsteps halt.

“Kyran?”

Kyran furrowed his eyebrows and looked around him. When he was jolted back to reality, he regained his usual expression.

“Yes.”

“What’s going on with you? Why did you stop suddenly? Is it because you saw something that you wanted to get?”

“No.” Kyran made up an excuse. “I thought my shoelace was loose.”

“I see.” Deirdre paid no attention to that and instructed Kyran to grab some toothbrushes and towels.

Kyran placed the items in the shopping cart after retrieving them, yet his gaze was constantly drifting elsewhere. “Wait for me here. I’m going out for a short while.”

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to the restroom because I don’t feel so well.”

Deirdre was stunned for a moment. She nodded despite feeling strange.

Kyran walked in the direction that stirred his suspicion, and his speculation was right.

Someone was taking photos of them in secret.
