Chapter 457 Couldn’t Let Brendan See It

The nurse hurriedly held Deirdre up, but Deirdre was feeling dizzy. She had heard the sound of the camera shuttle

earlier. Her face had turned pale as a sheet, and she touched her body.

“Miss McKinnon? What are you looking for?”

“My phone…” Deirdre forced herself to calm down. “Can you please lend me your phone? I think I left mine in the

ward.”

The nurse immediately took out her phone. “Who do you want to call?”

“D-Declan King!”

The nurse naturally had Declan’s phone number. After she made the call, she passed it to Deirdre. While pressing

against the marble countertop, she was shivering.

She knew she would disturb Declan by calling late at night, but she had no other alternatives. The photos must not

be spread.

“Hello.” After quite a long while, a hoarse man’s voice was heard. “Who’s this?”

“Mr. King, it’s me! I’m sorry for waking you up at this late hour.”

Declan was indeed sleeping. But when he heard Deirdre’s voice, he immediately sobered up because something

must have happened for Deirdre to call him. Therefore, he asked in a low voice, “What’s it? Did something

happen?”

Deirdre took a deep breath. “Someone broke into the 11th floor. It was a man. He came in while I was doing

laundry, closed the door, pulled off the bandage on my face, and photographed me!”

Declan frowned heavily. “Photographed you?”

“Yes.” Deirdre said with a trembling voice, “Mr. King, do you have any way so the photo won’t be leaked Out!”

Declan reassured her while putting on his clothes. “Miss McKinnon, don’t worry. I have already warned the media.

Not many would dare to publish any news about you. You don’t have to worry about your current photos. No one

will think you are Charlene McKinney, even if they are released. In fact, it’s easier for us to explain.”

“No.” Deirdre clenched the phone tightly as her mind went blank. “I don’t care if those people know who I am. It’s

Brendan! If he sees that photo, he will come for me!”

For a moment, Declan was stunned and stopped his movement. When he recovered his senses, he continued to

button up and said, “Don’t worry, Miss McKinnon. He won’t see it.”

“W-Why are you so sure?”

“There’s no reason. His ward is now sealed off. He can’t get out from the inside, and no one can get in from the

outside Therefore, how can your photo be shown to him so easily?”

Deirdre felt comforted. She gradually looked relaxed though she still felt the lingering fear. Declan added, “Don’t

worry, don’t be nervous. I will definitely solve this matter.”

Upon hearing the promise, Deirdre heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, thank you very much.”

It was only after the call was over that Deirdre realized that the nurse had been by her side the whole time, so she

might have listened to their conversation.

Deirdre felt nervous, and the nurse promised tactfully, “Miss McKinnon, I’m ordered to take care of you only. Other

than that, I know nothing. The same goes for what you’ve just said. I will forget it when I go out.”

Afterward, the police came again during the day, checked the surveillance cameras, and chatted with Deirdre,

asking about the person’s characteristics.

Because Deirdre was blind, she couldn’t help much. But before the police left, she thought of one thing.

“The day before yesterday…” She tried recalling. “The day before yesterday, at the laundry room door, at man

came to ask me something. His voice was exactly the same as the man who attacked me last night.”

The man completely moved around the surveillance cameras’ blind spots yesterday, and his face couldn’t be seen

clearly when he was in public. Therefore, Deirdre’s words helped a lot. The police took notes, told Deirdre not to

leave the ward, and left.
