Kyran loosened his grip after the man left, but he still exuded a faint trace of anger.
Deirdre blinked innocently. “Are you angry, Kyran?”
“Why do you ask?”
Deirdre’s mind went blank. Naturally, he could sense his anger.
“I can feel that you seem unhappy. Did something happen? Is it because of that man earlier?”
Kyran fell silent for a moment before he typed, “Take a guess of why I’m unhappy.”
Deirdre bit her lower lip in confusion while Kyran said, “I’m jealous.”

displeased by his behavior. On the contrary, she welcomed him with boundless hospitality.
‘Isn’t this equal to him professing his feelings for me?’
Deirdre found herself fortunate that the bandages and mask covered her face. Otherwise, her blush would be

Kyran looked at her pleasant face with lowered eyes and could not refrain from stretching out his hand. He wanted
to touch her occasionally but refrained from doing so. “I shouldn’t do this.”
He made a promise. “I won’t do it again from now on. Deirdre, it’s your freedom to engage in normal social
interaction with other men.”
Deirdre was stunned for a moment while Kyran changed the topic of conversation. “Put your hand on me. We
should head back to the room.”
“Sure…” Deirdre stretched out her arm. She felt a knot in the pit of her stomach for an unknown reason when she
heard Kyran’s remark.
