Chapter 348: Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 349

Chapter 349 Same Level ‘Protect?‘

Deirdre understood that no one would be able to protect her in Brendan’s presence because he was a madman who acted on his will.

‘If he is happy, he will smile at you. But if he is displeased, he will figure out all sorts of ways to destroy you, and no one can stand a chance against him. How can he protect me from him?

‘Moreover… why does it have to be so coincidental that he is in the same hospital as Kyran and they are warded on the same level?‘

“I really am fine.” Deirdre clenched her fists tightly and inhaled three deep breaths once again to calm herself. She rubbed her face and said, “I’m just tired because I didn’t sleep well in the car last night.”

Upon hearing that, Kyran typed, “I’ll get Declan to take you somewhere to rest when he’s up.”

“Sure.”

Deirdre seized the opportunity to walk outside once again.

Even though she hoped to cut ties with Brendan, she had to figure out which level and room Brendan was staying at first.

She felt her way to the elevator and went downstairs to the nurses‘ station. After looking at her, the nurse assumed that she was a patient and asked, “Are you having trouble getting to the dispensary because you can’t see?”

“No.” Deirdre explained, “I’m not a patient.”

The nurse was momentarily stunned but did not ponder further. “How may I help you then?”

“Uh…” Deirdre inhaled a deep breath. “I would like to inquire about Mr. Brendan Brighthall’s room.”

The nurse expressed her understanding instantly when she heard Deirdre’s remark. She regarded Deirdre as one of those women trying to charm Brendan and replied in a cold, official tone, “I’m sorry, but I can’t reveal a patient’s confidential information if you’re not the patient’s family.”

‘Patient’s family… Does his deceased wife count?‘

Deirdre knew that the nurse would most certainly regard her as a madwoman if she were to say that. She explained softly, “Don’t worry. I’m only asking, and I won’t approach him.”

“Even if you don’t approach him, I can’t give you an answer either way. Please move aside if you have nothing else. We’re busy.”

The nurse’s mannerism was cold, so Deirdre did not have the courage to linger at the nurses‘ station. She kept her head lowered and was about to return to Kyran when she heard the rushed clicking sound of someone’s high heels trailing behind her.

Soon afterward, the figure walked past her to the nurses‘ station. “Where is Brendan Brighthall’s room?”

Deirdre’s body froze abruptly.

‘Is that Charlene? I can’t let her see me!‘

Deirdre panicked and walked ahead in a rush and bumped into someone accidentally.

The person called out ‘Yikes‘, and he was furious. “What the heck is going on? Why are you walking heedlessly in the hospital? Are you rushing to get to the morgue?” The commotion drew Charlene’s attention. She turned around subconsciously and saw an emaciated–looking woman with her back facing her. The woman was being scolded by the other person, and she looked…

There was puzzlement in Charlene’s eyes, and she walked over with her high heels clicking…

“Miss McKinney, right?”

The nurse approached Charlene, and the latter shifted her gaze. “Yes, where is Brendan’s room?”

“Please hold on. I shall check for you.”

Deirdre was lucky to escape without exposing herself and stood in the crowd. She could hear the commotion at Charlene’s side and Charlene’s voice clearly.

Her heart was racing when Charlene mentioned Brendan’s name.

“Mr. Brendan Brighthall… Alright, found it. Mr. Brighthall is on the top floor, Level 11.”

‘Level 11?‘

Deirdre suddenly remembered Declan’s mention of Kyran’s room. She remembered that Kyran’s room was on Level 11 as well. ‘It’s such a coincidence that they are both warded on the same level?‘

Her face turned ghastly pale in an instant. ‘In other words, is it possible that a wall only separates Brendan and me, and he almost caught me!?‘

As soon as the thought occurred to her, Deirdre felt a shiver down her spine.

Charlene asked impatiently, “What is the room number?”

Deirdre felt her heart in her throat.

“Room 1106.” The nurse answered, “That is Mr. Brighthall’s room.”

Deirdre was shocked instantly
