Even though the inside of her boots were wet, her hands were cracked from the cold, and her body was so cold that Deirdre lost her senses, the first thing she said with a smile was, "It's good that you're fine."Deirdre didn't claim credit for this, nor did she express her grievances. It was as if it was right and just for her to save her life. Although she was even more obedient to Brendan, she had never mentioned she was the one who had carried Madame Brighthall.At that moment, Madame Brighthall began to really regard Deirdre as her daughter-in-law. For more than a year, she became more intimate with Deirdre, as if Deirdre was her daughter, and she cared more about Deirdre than Brendan.Unfortunately, their relationship had turned out otherwise.-After Deirdre finished speaking, she nodded, signaling that she was about to open the door to enter the ward.“Miss McKinnon…” said Madame Brighthall in a trembling voice.Deirdre kept standing at the same spot while Madame Brightha
“Well, let’s go back.”After Declan got to the ward, Declan remained in the ward until he received the phone call that he had to leave.Deirdre remained by Kyran's side all the time. But Kyran was still slumbering.After a long time, a nurse knocked on the door, came in, and asked, "Miss McKinnon, it's almost nighttime. Do you want something to eat? I'll go to the cafeteria and get you a meal box.""No." Deirdre smiled. "Thank you, but I'm not hungry yet.""But… Miss McKinnon, you haven't eaten all day. Even if you're not hungry, your body needs food." The nurse was worried. "How about I bring a bowl of porridge over? Just take a little. Otherwise, Mr. Reed will be in distress when he wakes up later."Deirdre really didn't have much of an appetite. But when she thought that she might not make it through the night if she didn’t eat, she nodded hesitantly.“Thank you.”- On the other hand, Blake made a phone call at the hotel. As soon as the call was connected, he reprimanded f
"What is there to explain? I thought you could give me a good life, but you immediately showed your true colors when I only spent 18,000 dollars. How will I survive if I marry you in the future!?"Blake quickly coaxed her. "Oh, Lily, you’ve misunderstood. I just wanted to ask whether you have enough money. I’ll give you more if you don’t.""Really?" Lily's expression softened. "It's true that I’ve almost finished spending my money. When will you transfer me the remaining 25,000?"Blake gnashed his teeth and replied with determination, “Soon! I’ll transfer it to you immediately after I receive it.”“Oh dear, you’re truly very amazing. In that case, I’ll continue to enjoy it!”After hanging up the phone, Blake knelt with his head in his arms.He knew that Lily had spent the 18,000 dollars, and he would not be able to get it back. It wouldn't be worth it if he lost his girlfriend again.But if he couldn't get the money, wouldn't he…The woman's eyes flashed in his mind, and he ref
“H-How do you feel?”"I wanted to be with you at the beginning. It turned out to be wishful thinking. How could I be worthy of you, a woman who married Brendan Brighthall? I guess you wouldn't like me either."Deirdre frowned. "Tobey, do you still remember what you said to me before? Don't belittle yourself. I always remember it very clearly. Why did you forget what you taught me?”“I…”“Tobey, the relationship between Brendan and I is not as simple as you think. We didn’t have any affection for each other. If possible, I would rather have never met him in my life."Only then did Tobey come to his senses. He frowned and said, "Indeed, if he was good, how could you become like this?"Deirdre smiled. After all, she didn't care anymore, and neither did she have the strength to do so. "Anyway, it's over. By the way, what about Madame Russell?""I've already explained that it's just a nonsense stunt pulled by the media, and you have nothing to do with Brendan Brighthall.""Thank you
“But I’m the patient.”Deirdre’s cheeks burned slightly when she heard Kyran talk in a serious manner. Biting her lower lip, she rebutted, “Don't make excuses. It's not like you can't move your mouth.”“I like it when you feed me. It was soft, and it smelled good.”Deirdre felt so embarrassed upon hearing the mechanical voice of the phone. She turned, intending to walk away, but Kyran pulled her back smilingly. “Alright, I’ll stop messing with you.”When Deirdre sat down, Kyran asked, “Why were you crying when I was pushed out?”“I did?” Deirdre was startled as she couldn’t remember at all.“Your eyes were red,” replied Kyran.Deirdre immediately recalled the reported news and the person who took a photo of her, and her face turned pale. Trying to force herself to regain her composure, she lowered her head and said, “I was just too worried about you.”“Oh dear, why were you so worried? Didn’t I tell you that I’d be fine?”Deirdre smiled, but her eyes became empty.Though Kyra
The nurse hurriedly held Deirdre up, but Deirdre was feeling dizzy. She had heard the sound of the camera shuttle earlier. Her face had turned pale as a sheet, and she touched her body.“Miss McKinnon? What are you looking for?”“My phone…” Deirdre forced herself to calm down. “Can you please lend me your phone? I think I left mine in the ward.”The nurse immediately took out her phone. “Who do you want to call?”“D-Declan King!”The nurse naturally had Declan’s phone number. After she made the call, she passed it to Deirdre. While pressing against the marble countertop, she was shivering.She knew she would disturb Declan by calling late at night, but she had no other alternatives. The photos must not be spread.“Hello.” After quite a long while, a hoarse man’s voice was heard. “Who’s this?”“Mr. King, it’s me! I’m sorry for waking you up at this late hour.”Declan was indeed sleeping. But when he heard Deirdre’s voice, he immediately sobered up because something must have ha
Deirdre took a deep breath and entered the ward. As soon as she closed the door, Kyran asked, “Who did you meet?”He totally didn’t know what had happened. He only saw the bruise on her arm in the morning, but Deirdre told him she fell accidentally."It’s people from the hospital’s management level. Because I fell in the laundry room, they asked me if I was okay and if I needed compensation."Although Kyran was unhappy that Deirdre was injured, he couldn’t blame anyone, so he could only ask, "Does it still hurt?"Deirdre held his hands and smiled. "After taking medicine, it's gotten much better, and it doesn't hurt anymore.""The next time anything happens to you, remember to tell me immediately. If I didn't see your swollen arm this morning, you would have hidden it from me, wouldn’t you?"Kyran couldn’t help but blame Deirdre, but he felt even more distress.Deirdre was touched and even felt better from the restlessness she suffered from the incident yesterday.Since the poli
"That's good." Charlene softened and demanded, "Take him aside and check if there is any hidden camera before throwing him out."“Yes!”When Blake was dragged aside for inspection, he raised his hands and dared not make a sound. Meanwhile, Charlene tidied up her hair and walked toward the door.“Miss McKinsey.”Charlene was blocked just when she took a step forward.Charlene frowned. “It’s been two days, yet Bren is still unwilling to meet anyone?”The bodyguard smiled obsequiously. “Yes. Mr. Brighthall is in poor health and in a bad mood, so he just wants to stay in the room alone.”Charlene appeared to be Impatient, but she still said softly, "But at this juncture, Bren needs companions the most. If he is alone in the ward, doesn't it mean that no one will take care of him when he is thirsty? Open the door. I'm going to persuade him.""Miss McKinsey, I'm really sorry. It's not like you don't know what happened last time. Mr. Brighthall hates others disobeying him the most. Pl
