Chapter 345 It’s My Fault for Putting You in Harm’s Way

“I see…” Deirdre said softly, “It must be very tiring for you to travel such a difficult path to get to me in a rush,

right? I’m sorry.”

Declan was stunned upon hearing Deirdre’s remark and came to understand the situation. He smiled

subconsciously and said, “I’ve never seen Kyran being close to a woman from the start, but you’re the only

exception, Ms. McKinnon. You’re so kind, Ms. McKinnon. Perhaps I might have fallen for you too if I didn’t already

have someone else that I love.”

Deirdre had a hard time explaining her relationship with Kyran within a short period, so she immediately changed

the conversation topic. “Do you have a lover, Mr. King?” “Hardly a lover… She’s not planning on being with me.”

“Is that so?” Deirdre expressed her astonishment.

Declan could not help chuckling. “Why? Why are you feeling incredulous to know that I’m still single?”

Deirdre said truthfully, “It’s because you seem like a very outstanding man, Mr. King. You hold a respectable status,

and you’re good with words. If you have someone you love, it should be normal for you to end up being with her.”

Declan looked ahead and said, “Is that the way you look at it?”

His eyes were unfocused, and there was no telling who he was thinking about. Then, he smiled and said in a teasing

voice, “I suppose the great have great hardship to contend with, right? It’s precisely because I’m so outstanding

that I’m destined to have troubles in love because my career is smooth sailing.”

Deirdre forced a smile while Declan said, “Get some rest. We’ll be there by daybreak.”

“Sure.”

Deirdre shut her eyes. She fell asleep in the car’s swaying rhythm until she was awakened by Declan. She rubbed

her eyes.

“We’re here.”

“Alright.” Deirdre felt her way out of the car. Declan offered her an arm to lead her to the hospital level.

A nurse passed by, and Declan asked, “Has the patient in Room 1106 awakened?”

“No.” The nurse stopped and asked in a stern tone, “Are you his friend?”

Deirdre could not help feeling her chest tighten.

Declan nodded. “I am.”

“I believe that the patient is concerned about something. He woke up a few times and fell asleep back, but his lips

were constantly chanting something in his sleep. I couldn’t hear his voice clearly, so it would be best for you to pay

attention to that.”

“Sure.”

Declan was in the mood to tease Kyran after the nurse left. “That lad is probably still thinking about his date with

you in his dream.”

Deirdre could not crack a smile, and Declan understood her feelings. He did not continue to make jokes and took

Deirdre to the room right away.

The room reeked of disinfectant, yet Deirdre felt calmer for some unknown reason. It was possible that it was

because she was getting closer to Kyran.

“Take a seat first, Ms. McKinnnon. I’ll get two sandwiches from the cafeteria for breakfast.”

“Sure.” Deirdre was caught in a daze for a moment before she nodded.

After Declan left, she stretched out her hand to touch Kyran’s face. It was burning hot and at an unnatural

temperature.

“It’s my fault for putting you in harm’s way.” She lowered her gaze. Any man who interacted with her would always

end up bad.

There was Sterling, then Tobey, and not even Kyran could be spared.

There was dejection in her gaze. She was about to pull back her arm when her palm was grasped abruptly.

The icy cold fingers clutched her palm strenuously in an anxious yet rushed manner.

“Are you awake, Mr. Reed?”

The man did not answer, but he clutched her hand tightly. His breathing was rapid and chaotic while his body was

trembling.

Deirdre subconsciously placed her other hand on his face and felt the cold sweat covering his forehead.

“Nurse! Nurse!”

Deirdre’s expression changed drastically. There was nothing she could do to walk away from the bed due to Kyran’s

tight clutch. She was panic–stricken until the grasp

suddenly loosened.
