Chapter 327: Mr. Handkerchief
Grandma Terry’s surgery went well, and the family was very grateful to Dr. Deyna Song, who had successfully done the emergency laparotomy operation and detected a gastrointestinal perforation. The condition was life-threatening, so it was a good thing that it was diagnosed early, and fortunately, Dr. Deyna Song was able to fix the problem.
Keira was about to go home when she decided to drop by her dearest cousin’s office to pay him a visit.
"What? You got married in secret?!" Keira’s shout roared inside Xander’s office. Xander just responded with a big grin and an enthusiastic nod. Keira was staring at him in disbelief as Xander narrated everything.
"Why did you only tell me about this now? And you did not even bother to introduce me to her. I’m a bit disappointed that I was left in the dark, Cousin Brother... But, gosh, finally! After all those years, that little buddy of yours can finally salute! He was not out of order, after all. He was just picky!" Keira teased as she laughed out loud, which made Xander reddened from embarrassment.
"Shhh! Keep your mouth shut! This is why I didn’t tell you about this! She does not know anything about it yet, okay? Oh, but you met her already. She’s the one who operated on your grandmother-in-law," Xander said with pride.
Keira’s eyes widened as she blurted out, "Deyna Song!? Wait... Bernard’s fiancee? What’s going on here?" Keira suddenly felt confused. Bernard had passed on, and yes, a few months had already gone by, and the show must go on, but how did Bernard’s fiancee become Xander’s wife? So, Xander told Keira everything about Deyna.
Keira did not know whether to feel happy for Xander or pity him. But, just by looking at her cousin’s sparkling eyes when he talked to her about Deyna Song, she could tell that her cousin liked her a lot. "If you need any help with capturing her heart, just tell me, okay, Cousin Brother? I will help you, so don’t worry..."
Xander’s face crumpled as he refused, "No way... I can manage by myself... I know you too well that I’m afraid you’ll just sabotage everything."
Keira laughed and shook her head as she said, "Well, good luck then... But you know I love you, right? So, I’ll really help you out..."
