Chapter 347 Pass Her the Phone
Deirdre was stunned. She felt for the phone in her pocket and realized that it was turned off after being out of battery.
She stretched out her hand and said, “Pass it to me.”
The phone was given to Deirdre, and she got up to pick up the call. “Hello, Madame Russell.”
“Silly girl!” Eilis was almost in tears. “Why aren’t you picking up your phone? You scared me! I looked for you everywhere for a night and almost thought that you were buried under the snow!”
“I’m sorry…” Deirdre sniffed. She had been so worried about Kyran that she had forgotten to call and update Eilis about her whereabouts.
Madame Russell said, “As long as you’re safe and sound. Where are you now?”
Deirdre had no idea, either. She said truthfully, “Mr. Reed got sick and was admitted to the hospital after helping me the other day. I sought help from Mr. King to take me to the hospital, and it is quite some distance away from Village Alnwick.”
“I see… Are you cold then? Would you like me to send you warmer clothes?”
“It’s fine.” Deirdre smiled. “Mr. Reed has already awakened. I’ll be back when the hospital has examined and confirmed that he is fine.”
“Alright then.” Eilis remembered something and said, “However, I called up Tobey because I panicked. He got in touch with people here to look for you. I’m afraid that he might not have slept the whole night, and perhaps he would have hopped on a plane to come back if he weren’t so busy. I shall call him and update him about your situation.”
“Sure.”
After ending the call, Deirdre blushed as she thought about how she had troubled way too many people.
She passed the phone to Kyran, and he asked, “What happened? Is Madame Russell very worried about you?”
“Yes.” Deirdre was very embarrassed. “I’ll be leaving by noon. It would be strange for her not to panic after I came over and vanished for the whole night without informing her prior.”
“Had you been waiting for me since noon?”
She was planning on changing the topic of conversation when Kyran suddenly held her hand beyond her expectations. Despite her blindness, she could feel the man’s blazing hot gaze on her face.
Kyran wanted to hang up right away this time, but Deirdre asked cautiously, “Aren’t you going to take the call, Mr. Reed?”
Kyran could only suppress his anger this time as Tobey’s voice sounded. “Hello, Mr. Reed. Did you accidentally hang up the call? I’m not a stranger but Deirdre’s friend. Will you please pass her the phone?”
“It’s Tobey.”
Deirdre’s eyes lit up while Kyran’s dark pupils turned dim. He passed her the phone.
“It’s me, Tobey.”
Tobey was relieved to hear Deirdre’s voice. “Deirdre, will you please inform my
mother or me first before you go anywhere the next time? Do you know how worried I am?”
“I’m sorry, Tobey. Today’s incident is an accident, and I won’t do that again.”
