Chapter 331 Do You Hate Me?
Kyran ignored Declan and turned his face to Deirdre, asking, âAre you done?â
His chest was still left exposed to the air.
Deirdreâs ears were burning hot. Even though she couldnât see anything, she spun her head to the other side. âItâs done.â
Kyran pulled his shirt down and buttoned it up again. After that, he typed and asked, â
Did that friend of yours look a lot like me?â
Deirdre was stunned for a moment, and the light in her eyes dimmed. âYeah, but thereâs still a slight difference between you and him.â
âWhat kind of person is he?â
âWhat kind of person is he?â
He was domineering, coldâblooded, and heartless. When Brendanâs face appeared in Deirdreâs mind, he would always look at her with a condescending and icy gaze.
When she gave it a second thought, Kyran and Brendan were two completely different people. Something must have gone wrong in her head that she thought they were similar to each other.
âIâve forgotten about it.â The last thing Deirdre wanted was to recall anything about that man. She paused for a moment before replying, âIt has been too long. My memories about him have gotten fuzzy.â
This was her hope as well. She hoped that one day, she would forget about Brendan, forget about all the painful past, and make a fresh start.
Sensing that she did not want to continue the conversation, Kyran changed the topic and typed, âLet me send you back.â
Deirdre wanted to tell him that he did not have to do that. However, the church had a complex internal structure, and she was not familiar with the ways. As a blind person, there was no way she could make her way out. Therefore, she could only nod and say, âThank you then.â
Kyran fell silent for a moment. He seemed a bit displeased with Deirdreâs reaction, but he did not show it on his face. He grabbed her wrist and began to lead her out.
By the time they came out, a thin layer of snow was on the ground.
Deirdre stretched her arm to reach out for the snowflakes. The snow melted on her palm, and she could feel the coldness seeping into her skin.
âIâll send you back to the Russells,â Kyran typed.
âItâs okay,â Deirdre replied as she waved her hand. âIâm sure you guys have something to do for coming to Alnwick. Youâve wasted a lot of time helping me, so I canât keep on bothering you anymore. I know how to go back. Iâll go back myself.â
Kyran replied, âItâs snowing, and the road is slippery. You might fall.â
âItâs okay. Iâll be more careful.â
Kyran frowned. âMiss McKinnon, can you stop rejecting me? Do you hate me? Or are you keeping your distance and not wanting to interact with me because I look like your old friend?â
Deirdre was stunned.
She did not hate Kyran. On the contrary, she had a feeling about him that she couldnât explain because he couldnât speak. However, it was also because he looked a lot like Brendan that she did not know how to face him now.
âYouâre just overthinking.â Deirdre lowered her face. âYou guys are two different people. I know that very well.â
âSo this means that you donât hate me, right?â
âYeah.â
âThen let me send you back.â
Deirdre did not reject him this time.
Kyran was walking in front of her. He grabbed her hand tightly and tucked it into his pocket.
Deirdre froze for a moment as the memory of her walking with Brendan in cold weather surfaced.
The man was walking very fast. The window on the third floor was left open. She was following behind him, her limbs frozen stiff. As she panted heavily, she said, â Brendan, wait⦠Wait for meâ¦â
However, the man paid her no mind until she fell to the floor.
He turned his head to look at her. Deirdreâs hand was bleeding, but she kept it inside her sleeve. She got up from the floor and said, âItâs too cold. My feet were frozen stiff.â
Brendan glanced at the hand she hid in the sleeve and said, âTake it out.â
Deirdre had no other choice but to stretch her arm forward. When Brendan saw the wound on her hand, he frowned. He grabbed her hand and stuck it into his pocket.
