Chapter 145 Don’t be Self Righteous
Before the doctor could finish his sentence, he realized who he was speaking to and immediately shut his mouth. However, he had not thought that Brendan didn’t even frown. He merely locked his gaze on the woman lying on the bed.The doctor was stunned. When Brendan recollected himself, he asked, “When will she wake up?”“I’m not sure, probably the latest on the second night.”“Okay.”After seeing the doctor off, Brendan returned to the room. While looking at the pale face of Deirdre and the beads of sweat dripping from her forehead, he sat at the edge of the bed, feeling complicated.After a day, Brendan had remained like this.Deirdre finally woke up from the nightmare. She opened her eyes, short of breath. The moment she sat up, she laughed at herself.Was ‘luck’ the only advantage she had now? She actually survived under that condition…She touched her cold face, just to realize through her sixth sense that someone else was in the room.“Sam, is that you?” Deirdre asked in
Chapter 146 Sam Had Left
Deirdre waited for quite some time to ensure that there wasn’t any movement outside before she tried to get off the bed.She was so thirsty that she simply pulled out a coat from the wardrobe, put it on, and went downstairs. After satisfying her thirst, she heard footsteps approaching. When she was assured that the sound didn’t belong to Brendan, she asked, “Sam, is that you?”The man outside scratched his head in embarrassment and chuckled. “Miss McKinnon, you’re mistaken. I’m not Sam but Sawyer.”“Sawyer?”The man quickly introduced himself. “Sam and I are the bodyguards of Mr. Brighthall. We used to meet in the past, but I think you can recall who I am now.”Following that, he felt rather guilty because he used to mock Deirdre a lot because she was both ugly and blind. However, the incident yesterday night made him somewhat realize the status of Deirdre to Brendan. Hence, it was best for him if Deirdre could not recall.In fact, Deirdre couldn’t recall it. After all, many had
Chapter 147 Have You Fallen in Love With Him
Brendan furrowed his eyebrows. “Stop flattering yourself, Deirdre.”“Am I wrong though? He defied your order when he saved me from the storeroom, so you were pissed off and punished him in that manner, right?” Deirdre thought about how anyone who helped her would end up in a tragic state and smiled bitterly.“In your perception, I deserve to die, right?”“Deirdre!” Brendan said in a stern voice, his dark eyes tainted with coldness. “Your survival is none of my business, nor is Sam being sent to the casino. He’s only sent back to where he’s supposed to be!”Deirdre’s eyes reddened with tears. “Let him come back. I shall acknowledge my mistake to you, Brendan.”She was most afraid of someone else suffering hardships because of her. “If you feel it’s infuriating that I was saved, I will go to the storeroom, and you can keep me there for ten days to two weeks!”Brendan took a step forward and clutched Deirdre's lower jaw so hard that she took a step back from the pain. She pushed h
Chapter 148 In the Room All by Themselves
Deirdre’s eyes were bloodshot, and she bit her lower lip tightly. “I didn’t…”“Charlene shuts herself in the room and refuses to eat now because of you, and you’re still stubbornly denying it?” Brendan was laughing from anger, his eyes bursting with coldness. “I thought you were begging for Sam to come back? Sure, if you can make Charlene forgive you, I’ll let bygones be bygones!”‘Make Charlene forgive me?’Deirdre felt her heart wrench in pain violently. He wanted her to beg the woman who killed Bliss for forgiveness? More importantly, Charlene would never let her off easily after seizing the opportunity with great effort.Brendan sneered. “How is it? Do you still want your Sam back?”He used the words ‘your Sam’ to mock her. Deirdre swallowed the bitterness in her throat, but her heavily damaged heart was still hurting. She could not care anymore. Would she still be afraid of being tormented when she had almost lost her life?“Sure, I’ll seek Charlene’s forgiveness if you ca
Chapter 149 Wait Here
Deirdre was stunned for a moment. She could obviously tell from the servant’s tone what it meant by Brendan and Charlene being in the room by themselves. Deirdre felt unusually disgusted by the thought of Brendan raping her when he was already sleeping with Charlene. She suppressed the acid reflux in her stomach with great effort and said, “When will Brendan leave the room?”The servant smiled and said, “I’m not too sure about that. Perhaps Mr. Brighthall will be down in an hour or two.”Sawyer felt slightly uneasy because the servant’s remark was too strange. He immediately said, “Please let Miss McKinnon and I enter the house first. Miss McKinnon caught a cold yesterday, and her body is weak, so she can’t stand waiting in the cold wind. We’ll wait in the living room.”The servant’s gaze changed for a moment before she forced a smile. “I’m sorry, but I don’t have the right to invite a visitor into the living room without Miss McKinney’s order. If it’s fine with you, please just w
Chapter 150 Do Nothing While I Watch Deirdre Sleep With You
“She is your wife and has no fear of being harmed in any way… What is so different about her and me? Is it only because she is your first woman?”Brendan furrowed his eyebrows ever so slightly, yet he could not answer her question. He knew that everything felt very natural when he was with Deirdre while he resisted Charlene’s physical interaction with him.Perhaps it was because he still could not accept having intimate interaction with Charlene as a married man.“Don’t overthink this.” In the end, Brendan gave this answer while attempting to move her hand away. Charlene’s eyes were reddened with tears, and she hugged him tightly to stop him from moving. “I can’t stop myself from overthinking. Brendan, why can’t you accept me if you can accept Deirdre? We have been together for such a long time, yet we have never engaged in lovers’ intimacy. Could it be that you want me to do nothing while I watch Deirdre sleep with you?”She wept profusely. Brendan’s body was stiff as he watch
Chapter 151 Did Nothing to Deserve the Favor
It was apparent that it was a critical situation judging by Brendan’s sternness. Sawyer did not have the courage to procrastinate, so he hastily asked, “What happened, Mr. Brighthall?”“Someone stirred up trouble and got several people injured. Sam was one of them, and his condition is quite critical.”Brendan described Sam’s condition as quite critical, so the critical level would surely be unusually bad in reality. Sawyer hastily opened the car door for Brendan. The latter was about to get into the car when Deirdre suddenly grabbed his arm.“Brendan, who did you say is injured? Is Sam injured? How bad is his injury?”There was no telling if her face was pale from the cold or scared out of her wits from overhearing the conversation. Brendan’s face was filled with evil emotions. He clutched her hand and pulled it away by force. “This is not an issue that you should concern yourself with. The pressing matter for you now is to figure out a way to make Charlene forgive you.”Deirdr
Chapter 152 Cook Something for Miss McKinnon
Deirdre could not see Charlene but could hear Charlene’s arrogance and also pride in her tone.‘It seems that Charlene has been waiting for me to come for a long time.’Deirdre inhaled a deep breath. Her self-respect refused to let her enemy defeat her. Yet at the thought of Sam…She smiled in defeat. ‘Who am I to deserve self-respect…’“Miss McKinney, I’m here to seek your forgiveness.” Deirdre raised her head, her gaze empty. “A person of great moral stature does not remember the offenses committed by one of low moral stature… Please don’t be offended by a person of low moral stature like me.”Charlene smiled. “You’re too courteous, Miss McKinnon. Why would I make things difficult for you when we’re both women? It’s only that I’m in a bad mood because of that incident.”She insinuated, “How about this, Miss McKinnon? You help me with something, and I won’t make a fuss with you if I’m pleased with the result. How about that?”Deirdre was surprised by how gentle Charlene was.
