Chapter 685 A Familiar Woman’s Voice

“Hi, I’m Deirdre McKinnon.”

Elyne was stunned for a moment, but she did not say anything. She chuckled and turned to look at Whelan, who was standing next to her. When she realized that Whelan was staring at Deirdre, she nudged him with her elbow and said, “Stop looking at her like that. Hurry up and introduce yourself.”

It was only then Whelan snapped himself out of his trance. He scratched his head and said, “Hi, Miss McKinnon. I’m Whelan McKinnon.”

Elyne knew that Whelan had a thing for Deirdre, so she decided to help him. She pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, “Wow! Both of you have the same surname. What a coincidence!”

‘That’s nothing,” Glenna chimed in and said, “All of us came from the same family a thousand years ago.”

“Do you have to be such a joy killer?” shouted Elyne.

Deirdre was affected by the lively atmosphere and felt a lot better now.

The three of them took great care of her when they arrived at the amusement park.

However, most of the time, it was Whelan who attended to her needs since Glenna and Elyne were having fun.

Deirdre felt a bit embarrassed and said, “It’s okay. You can go and have fun with them. I can see a little bit, so I won’t get lost. I’ll feel very bad if you don’t have enough fun because of me.”Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Whelan was sweating profusely. However, it was not because it was hot. It was because he was feeling very nervous right now. He pitched his voice low and replied, “It’s okay. The reason they called me here is so they can have someone to help them carry their bags when they go shopping. I’m just an errand boy. I know my own place very well.”

Deirdre was tickled pink by his comment and laughed. Whelan looked at her with some fascination and said after a few moments, “Miss McKinnon … You look really beautiful when you smile.”

Deirdre felt embarrassed to be praised by someone she had known for less than half a day. Just when she lowered her head, Elyne came over. There was a big smile on her face as she said, “I wonder if we came back at a bad time. It seems like you guys are making a lot of progress. You even started to praise each other for your good looks.”

“Who are you talking about? Whelan?” Glenna said as she peeled her eyes away from the claw crane. She gave Whelan a thumbs up and said, “As expected of my friend. You have the same taste as me. I was amazed as well when I first saw Deirdre.”

“Stop that, Glenna…” said Deirdre.

Glenna chuckled and said, “You don’t have to feel embarrassed about it.”

Elyne patted her stomach and said, “I’m hungry. What are we going to have for dinner tonight?”

Glenna’s eyes glowed up. “We’re going to the new restaurant downstairs. There are four of us, so we can get a private room. Let’s go.”

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Let’s go! Chop chop!”

The sky had already become dark by the time they came out of the amusement park.

Deirdre pulled her phone out of her pocket. From the light on the screen, she deduced that her phone hadn’t been turned off. Since Kyran hadn’t called her, it meant he hadn’t returned home yet.

She figured she should not disturb him since he was busy with his work. She went to the restaurant with the other three.

“How many of you are there?’

“Four. Is there any private room available on the second floor?”

The waiter checked for a moment and replied, “Yes. We have one table available now, but it still needs to be cleaned up. Can you wait for a moment here?”

‘Where is it? Can we go upstairs and wait?”

“It’s called the Begonia Room. It’s at the innermost position on the right side of the second floor.”

Glenna held Deirdre’s hand, and they went upstairs. As they were chatting outside of the private room, the door to the private room next door opened up. Then, a woman’s voice wafted into Deirdre’s ears. “Remember to order a bottle of red wine and add some more dishes. Just pick the expensive ones.”

The person who opened the door replied respectfully before going down the stairs. Deirdre’s blood turned cold, and she froze in horror.
