It was an awkward question. Deirdre lowered her head and said, “Tobey, Kyran is a good person. I’m going to trust him again. As long as he doesn’t hurt me, I don’t care who he really is.”
Tobey was rendered speechless. After a short while, he sighed. “Deirdre, I hope you won’t regret this decision in the future.”
Deirdre did not understand what Tobey was talking about. Why would she regret her decision in the future?
Before Deirdre could make head or tail of Tobey’s words, he had already hung up the call. She had no other choice but to think that her confusion came from her nervousness about refusing Tobey’s good intentions.
She sat on the bed, allowing her thoughts to drift into the distance. She did not know how long it had passed, but a flurry of knocking sounds on the door snapped her back to reality. Her heart skipped a beat as she asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s me, Miss McKinnon!”
‘Mr. King?’
He sounded like a cat on hot bricks, and Deirdre opened the door. “What’s wrong?”
“Something bad happened to Kyran! He’s in the operating room! We need to get there now!”
Deirdre’s heart clutched, and her back stiffened. If she could see right now, she would be seeing nothing but darkness. She hastily reached out for the jacket on the table. As she put it on, she asked, “What happened? He was fine before I left!”
Declan always wore a smile on his face when he was talking, but the smile was gone right now. There was a serious expression on his face as he said, “I have no idea either. But his condition suddenly worsened. The hospital just told me that he's in the middle of surgery now. We need to get there to get more details.”
They took a taxi to the hospital as it was faster than walking there. Kyran was still in the emergency room when they arrived at the hospital.
After Declan settled Deirdre down, he went to ask the doctor about Kyran’s condition. Deirdre stood in front of the emergency room, her head a muddled mess of confusion.
Kyran was fine before she left. She did not understand how his condition would suddenly worsen to the point that he needed to get surgery.
For a moment, she felt a chill slowly spread from her fingertips to her whole body.
