Chapter 342: Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 343

Chapter 343 Have I Been Deceived?

Kyran did not know her number, but he could call up the village head or the villagers.

She refused to believe that Kyran could not get her number in view of Declan’s connections.

‘Or is he trying to get here, but the heavy snow blocks his route?‘

At that thought, Deirdre decided that she would wait a little longer.

A moment later, the door of the lounge opened suddenly.

Deirdre raised her head in pleasant surprise only to hear the villager’s voice. “It’s nine, Deirdre.”

“I’m sorry for holding you up.” Deirdre felt an ineffable feeling in her heart and walked outside with the medicine bag.

It had already begun to snow outside, and a thick layer of snow was on the ground, almost to her ankles.

The villager said, “I’ll send you since it’s on my way. It’s inconvenient for you to head home in this weather.”

Deirdre hesitated for a moment before she said with a forced smile, “It’s fine. You should go home first.”

“You’re not going to wait still, right?” The villager inhaled sharply. “You came at one, and you waited until nine. The person is not here yet, so it’s apparent that he has stood you up. He’s not coming, and it’s understandable due to the weather. However, you’ll be a fool if you continue to wait.”

“He’s coming.” Deirdre became even more convinced when she remembered Kyran’s mannerisms.

He would give her his jacket when he was freezing, so what if she were to wait a while more?

What if Kyran were to come a moment after she left?

It would be deeply regretful for him to come in vain on such a cold day.

“Alright then. There’s nothing I can do if you insist. However, it’s snowing heavier, and you’ll only last half an hour at most when it’s freezing. You’re going to be in danger if you stay longer.”

“Hmm, don’t worry. I’ll wait ten minutes more, just ten minutes.”

The villager nodded and left.

Deirdre squatted by the door. The roof shielded her from the snow, but she kept her hands close to her chest from the cold.

‘I’ll wait a while longer, just a little longer.‘

She waited until it was already 10:00 p.m. by the time her phone reported the time.

Deirdre wanted to stand up, only to discover that her body was already stiff. She tumbled head–first into the snow and had no control over her limbs. She lay in the snow and exerted every ounce of strength in her body to turn over. She looked up to the sky with her head raised and felt the snowflakes landing on her face. The snowflakes did not melt instantly on her face because her body was so cold.

The feeling of nothing was agonizing. She shut her eyes and thought if she would die this way until she heard the sound of an approaching car in the distance.

Deirdre opened her eyes abruptly. The car stopped, and Declan’s voice was heard.

Ms. McKinnon!”

He came over and helped her to stand up. He furrowed his eyebrows ferociously at the very moment he felt her cold body. “Why are you still out here?”

Deirdre was stunned. “Mr. King? What brought you here?”

‘Have I been deceived? Has Kyran deceived me?

‘Did he make a fool out of me and regard me as a joke just like that man?‘

”

Declan’s face was green with rage. “Get into the car first. There’s heating in the car.”

Deirdre’s entire body was stiff, and she was almost lifted into the car by Declan. It was really warm in the car, and she could not stop herself from shivering after her body warmed up.

Declan said, “I’m sorry I came late, Ms. McKinnon. I didn’t expect you to wait at the door all this time either.”

“What do you mean?” Deirdre exhaled a deep breath. “Where… is Kyran?”

“He’s in the hospital.”

Deirdre was stunned and felt her chest tighten. “What happened?”

Declan’s expression was very unpleasant. “He’s sick. He’s burning with a high fever. and collapsed. He was sent to the hospital, and when he regained consciousness, he insisted on removing his intravenous line so he could come and see you. He claimed that you were waiting for him.”
