Chapter 729 I Want to See Charlene Deirdre still could not see the manâs face clearly. Kyran felt her stiffness and asked, âWhatâs the matter?
Deirdre shook her head, but her heart was pumping rapidly in her chest. âI⦠Iâm not feeling well today.â
Kyran nodded understandingly. He draped his jacket over her shoulders and said, âLetâs go upstairs and rest then. Itâs cold here, and you might get sick.â
âOkayâ¦â
After they went upstairs, Deirdre told Kyran that she was going to take a shower and locked herself up in the bathroom.
She splashed her face with cold water, yet her head remained a muddled mess.
âWhy would Kyran have Charleneâs body scent on him?â
Suddenly, she remembered the thing that Charlene had said to her.
âSince both of us have known each other for so long, let me give you a hint. Are you sure the Kyran who shares the same bed as you is the real Kyran?â
If it were in the past, she would never believe in Charlene. She would only take it as one of Charleneâs tricks to sow discord between her and Kyran, but she did not know about it now. After all, Kyran and Charlene were like two people from two different worlds. There was no way they would run into each other.
âBut if Kyran isnât Kyran⦠Then who is he?â
âDeirdre, are you taking a shower? Why didnât I hear the sound of water?â Kyran asked as he knocked on the door.
Deirdre hastily replied, âI was combing my hair.â
Deirdre finished her shower and came out of the bathroom. Kyran was so tired that he had fallen asleep. Deirdre listened to his steady snoring, and for some reason, she felt suffocated. She felt like she was getting drowned and could barely breathe.
The next morning, when Deirdre woke up, Kyan was coming out of the bathroom.
When he saw Deirdre had woken up, he apologized to Deirdre and said in a tired voice, âIâm sorry. I drank some beer last night and had to trouble you to help me change my clothes.â
Deirdre smiled and said, âWith our relationship, you donât have to feel embarrassed at all. Itâs just that you shouldnât drink so much beer in the future. Itâs not good for your health.â
Kyran sat beside her and kissed her forehead. âAre you worried about me?â
Deirdre nodded, and he chuckled. âAlright, I promise you I wonât drink beer anymore from now onward.â
âYou donât have to do thatâ¦â Deirdre said softly, âYouâre a businessman, so you need to drink some while entertaining your customers. Itâs just that I hope you can make sure you wonât get so drunk anymore.â
âOkay.â Kyran said, âIâll do everything you said.â
At the same time as Deirdre felt a gush of warmth in her heart, a surge of mixed emotions rose from her stomach pit.
After she sent Kyran out, Tobey called her and told her it was time for him to depart.
Deirdre got herself a cab and went to the airport.
Tobey was waiting for her in front of the airport. When he saw her, he walked up to her and said, âI didnât want you to come over here to send me off, but I thought that we might not have the chance to see each other anymore after you left for Germia, so I figured that I should see you again.â
âWell, I should come here and send you off,â said Deirdre. âWhere is your mother?â
âI asked her to stay at home since it would be difficult for her to get a cab back to Village Alnwick.â
After that, Deirdre and Tobey chatted until it was time for him to board the plane.
Tobey seemed to have something to say to her, but he swallowed it back to his stomach pit in the end. He grabbed his luggage and boarded the plane.
Deirdre flagged down a cab after she got out of the airport.
âWhere are you heading to, lady?â asked the driver.
Deirdre was stunned for a moment and replied, âBring me to Gracious Palace.â
It was the place where Eilis got her hair cut the previous day. After the car stopped, Deirdre heard that there were only a couple of people doing some cleaning inside.
When they saw Deirdre, one of them walked up to her and asked, âAre you here for a facial treatment or a haircut?â
Deirdre took a deep breath and replied, âIâm here to see Charlene.â
The staff was stunned for a moment. She told Deirdre to wait for her for a while and went to call the manager. The manager was not surprised and said something to the staff.
