Chapter 116 Will You Let Him Off
’All this just because of Sterling? She has a complete emotional breakdown just because he is punished lightly? She declared something that she has denied all this time.’ Brendan’s chest was burning with anger, and he had no idea why. He wanted Deirdre to admit to it and was aiming for this particular goal, yet he was furious at the very moment she finally relented. He clutched her weak, thin wrist with his grip so strong that he could crush her bones. “Deirdre, you have finally admitted to it!”“Yes.”She had no choice but to admit it. Her innocence was nothing compared to Sterling. Moreover, Brendan had never believed that she was innocent.“I knew it. You’re despicable and unscrupulous, just as expected.” He was infuriated, and his grip over Deirdre was so strong that her little face turned pale. “Why did I trust you and feel sorry for you in the past? Deirdre, you should be the one to take the sleeping pills! You should be the one to die!”Deirdre was about to suffocate t
Chapter 117 You’re So Unwilling to Part With Her
Brendan gnashed his teeth. ‘This is all she’s concerned about at this point.’ “You should have acted differently if you knew it would come to this!”Deirdre laughed and felt her head spinning. ‘You’re right. I should have acted differently if I knew it would come to this…’In the end, Brendan drove and abandoned her at the villa. He said coldly, “Charlene is still in the hospital. I’ll bring her to the villa when she has recovered. Remember to speak, and don’t pretend to be mute by then!”Brendan drove away before Deirdre could answer. He found Madam Brighthall in the room when he arrived at the hospital. Her expression was slightly unpleasant when she saw Brendan. “You’re here just at the right time, Brendan. Follow me outside. I have something to talk to you about.”Madam Brighthall got up, shut the door, and made her way to the side with Brendan. She said eagerly, “Have you lost your mind, Brendan? That woman has already resulted in Charlene’s admittance to the hospital twic
Chapter 118 Uproot
’Deirdre will not be able to outshine me when I move into the villa.’A tinge of cruelness flashed past her beautiful eyes. Soon afterward, she nodded with a gentle expression. “I don’t have any request except for Ms. McKinnon not to hurt me anymore.”…In the next three days, Brendan did not visit the villa anymore. Deirdre sat in the spacious living room by herself just as she did two years ago. The only change was her state of mind. She went from being a white jasmine waiting for the rising sun to a wilted rose emitting rot and stench inside out. “Ms. McKinnon.” Sam had been guarding the door all this time and had been watching as Deirdre sat on the sofa in a daze from sunrise to sunset. He felt rather sorry for her and could not refrain from striking up a conversation with her. “The flowers in the yard have bloomed and smell great. Would you like to head outside for a stroll? Perhaps you can get a whiff of the floral scent while you’re at it?”Deirdre remained in the same p
Chapter 119 I Won’t Let You Off
Sam could not help feeling disappointed. “Don’t you like it, Ms. McKinnon?”“No…” Deirdre rubbed the puppy’s head, and it moved closer to her affectionately to lick her fingers. “I can’t see, so it will be very difficult for me to take care of it. Moreover… I’m living in someone’s house now, so how can I keep a pet without Brendan’s permission?”“So it turns out that you’re concerned about this, Ms. McKinnon.” Sam could not help chuckling. “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of the puppy’s day-to-day needs. As for Mr. Brighthall, I’ll inform him once he has cooled down. It’s just a pet. He won’t mind it.”“Don’t…”“Don’t reject me anymore, Ms. McKinnon. In truth, I can’t send back the puppy anymore because the neighbor’s dog died after giving birth to it. The neighbor tore himself away from the puppy in fear that he would miss the old dog. However, I’m not at home most of the time. If you don’t want it, I really don’t know what to do with it anymore, Ms. McKinnon.”Deirdre was touched. S
Chapter 120 Something Is Missing
Brendan’s eyes were narrowed, and he wore a very dangerous expression. ‘She is already starting to keep her own secret after leaving her in the villa for just a few days.’“Deirdre, I’m going to count to three. Don’t evoke my anger.”She bit her lower lip tightly.“Three, two…”“It’s Bliss.”“Bliss?”Deirdre had only come to realize that she had called out the puppy’s name. She opened up the box, completely terrified, and revealed the furry, whiny puppy head inside. The puppy moved toward Deirdre to sniff at her.“This is it.”Brendan backed away in disgust. He was allergic to dogs. “Why did you bring this here? Get rid of it immediately.”Deirdre bit her lower lip and did not attempt to refute. Instead, she wrapped her arms around the box to protect it. Brendan sneered. “What are you doing, Deirdre? Do you regard this as your home? You’re just a dog to me, yet you’re still trying to keep a pet?”The remark was so harsh that Deirdre’s eyes reddened with tears as she attempt
Chapter 121 Returning to the Villa
He had no idea what it was, but it felt as if something was torn from his heart when it vanished so suddenly.“Mr. Brighthall.” His driver was there to pick him up. “What happened?”“Nothing.” He turned around and said, “Let’s go.”…Deirdre went straight to check on the box as soon as she woke up. Bliss was in there, but she could not see, so she could only feel around for the puppy with her hands. The puppy seemed to be sleeping and it would snore occasionally. It was awakened upon sensing Deirdre’s presence and it licked her fingers while it barked twice. Deirdre chuckled because it really was adorable. “Ms. McKinnon.”Sam came in for his shift and felt pleased deep down to find Deirdre smiling at Bliss in the box. “Have you had breakfast?”“I’m not in a rush to have breakfast.” Deirdre rubbed the puppy’s fur. “Let’s get some milk for it.”Deirdre took the puppy outside to get some sun when it was full from the milk and satisfied. The sound of a car driving into the court
Chapter 122 The Food Has Been Tampered With
“Yes.” Charlene chuckled and said, “However, it’s possible that I will need to stay in the villa for some time because of my health, Ms. McKinnon. I’m sorry that you need to put up with me.”Deidre sneered soundlessly. ‘This woman is really good at being a hypocrite both with her words and demeanor. However, Brendan just can’t seem to notice what a hypocrite she is.’She nodded. She really wanted to remove herself from that place and head upstairs, but Charlene said, “Let’s have a meal together, Ms. McKinnon. I’m quite good at cooking.”“It’s fine…” Before she could reject the offer, she sensed Brendan’s overbearing gaze. He was warning her. Deirdre changed her words and suppressed her disgust. “Sure.”Soon, Charlene headed to the kitchen to cook, and they gathered around the dining table. She prepared a full plate of food for Deirdre and said with a gentle smile, “I don’t like your food preferences, so I prepared a normal meal. Have a taste and let me know if you like it, Deir
Chapter 123 Would You Believe Me if I Told You Then
Deirdre did not notice when Bliss got out of the box and moved close to her, whining to lick her fingers. Her throat hurt so much that she could not speak, so she could only hold Bliss in her arms and bite her lower lip tightly to stop her body from shaking.‘This is pure agony. When will days like this one end?’She suddenly envied Bliss. She envied the dog because someone would hold it and give it warmth when it whined, yet she had nothing. She walked out of the bathroom after cleaning up, but the door of the bedroom was open. Before Deirdre could respond to the situation, she was pinned against the wall. The pain she felt aside, she could not help shivering from the cold radiating from the wall. “I’ve had enough of your act!” Brendan’s face was icy, and he was extremely furious. “What the heck is wrong with you today? Did you not take my warning seriously? Who were you trying to convince that you were disgusted by assuming that agonized expression after tasting Charlene’s co
