Chapter 726 What an Uncultured Woman You Are

‘Yeah.” Deirdre felt a pang of pain shoot through her chest. She was confident that

Kyran must have gone through a lot as well.

“This is the result of his efforts. It wasn’t easy for him to get where he is today.”

‘Yeah.” Tobey averted his gaze. Suddenly, he remembered something and chuckled.

“What’s the matter?”

“Do you remember Jamie?”

‘Yeah.” According to Deirdre’s memory, Jamie was a cheerful young man who liked to

help other people.

“Initially, he planned to invite the two of us to a meal today. But he suddenly thought of

something, so he went back to Neve after his mission was over.”

“What did he think of?”

Tobey continued indifferently. “He said that he felt Kyran was familiar and he seemed

to have seen him before in Neve. He remembered that he had a photo of him on his

old phone, so he went back to get it.”

Deirdre was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled. “He must’ve mistaken Kyran for

someone else. Kyran only works in Eastgene and Germia. He has only heard of Neve

before, so there’s no way Jamie could know him.”

“That’s what I told him too, but he’s very stubborn and he insists that he’s right, so I

just let him be.”

Deirdre laughed.

Then, Eilis served them a table of dishes. When she brought the dishes out of the

kitchen, she asked Deirdre where Kyran was.

Deirdre remembered that Kyran had gone out in a hurry that morning. She hesitated

for a moment before she said, “He’s been busy with work these days. Let me give him ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

a call.”

“Okay, you should go call him. Even if he’s busy with work, he has to eat too.”

Deirdre found a quiet spot and called Kyran. Unfortunately, she could not get through

to him even though she had made a few calls. She returned to the house and said,

“Kyran said he’s busy, so he’s not coming.”

Eilis shook her head in disappointment, and then Tobey said gently, “Mom, he owns a

big company. He has to handle more than a hundred documents every day, so it’s

normal that he’s busy and not as free as normal people like us. You don’t have to

worry about her.”

“Sigh… I’m just worried that Deirdre…” Eilis swallowed the second half of her sentence

and changed the topic. “Anyway, let’s eat!”

After they finished their meal, Tobey suggested taking Deirdre and Eilis out for a walk.

All of them then went downtown. They went shopping and watched a movie. After

doing that, they took Eilis for a haircut.

Eilis was satisfied with her new hairstyle, and when she asked them how much it cost,

both Deirdre and Tobey decided not to tell her the real price.

“About ten dollars.”

“Ten dollars? That was expensive! The hair salon at the entrance of the village can get

it done for a dollar.”

Deirdre said, “Well, you did not just have a haircut. You permed your hair too. Perming

is definitely more expensive.”

Eilis nodded in understanding. As she checked her new hairstyle through the mirror,

the shopkeeper’s enthusiastic voice suddenly came from the side.

“Ms. McKinney, come in, please!”

Then, Deirdre heard a sharp and loud voice that she would never forget in her life.

“Where is the hair stylist that I made an appointment with?”

“He’s right inside waiting for you.”

Deirdre clenched her fists. She had not expected to run into Charlene here. It seemed

to her that the world was truly small.

There was nothing she could do other than try her best to avoid making eye contact

with Charlene. It would be fine if she was alone, but Tobey and Eilis were with her

now, so she wanted to avoid getting into trouble.

Just as she turned around, Eilis got up to fix her hairstyle. She stretched her elbow

back a bit and bumped right into Charlene’s face.

Charlene flew into a rage when she was elbowed by Eilis in the face. When she

turned around and saw Eilis’ outfit, she said exasperatedly, “What’s wrong with this

hair salon? It seems to me that your quality and standards are getting lower and

lower. How can you allow an uncultured woman like her in here?”
