Chapter 49 She Absolutely Won’t Die
Brendan frowned. “I’ll get you a bowl of porridge.”Brendan immediately went out, dashed down the staircase, filled a bowl of porridge, and went back up. As he pushed open the door, he didn’t see Deirdre on her bed. Brendan saw Deirdre only when he shifted his glance to the balcony. He didn’t know how Deirdre had made it to the window of the balcony, but he was shocked to see that she had opened the floor-to-ceiling window, which was completely unshielded. “Deirdre! What are you doing?! Come over!”The wind was blowing in Deirdre’s ears, and she had a vacant look on her face. She no longer felt any pain. She only wanted to free herself as soon as possible.“Brendan, don’t you force Sterry again. He’s one of the few who’s treated me well. Wanting to be your wife and make you love me was wishful thinking on my part, but it turns out that you’re disgusted. I’m sorry,” said Deirdre apologetically. She then closed her eyes with determination. “So I’m giving you my life.”“Deirdre!”
Chapter 50 I Am Her Husband
Charlene was still in a wheelchair. Her eyes reddened as she felt the injustice of it all. “Brendan, you want me to donate my blood to Ms. McKinnon? You should know that I haven’t recovered yet…”“When she was pregnant, she still donated her blood to you, didn’t she?” Brendan stopped Charlene from objecting. “She must not die! I’ll tell the nurse to be careful when taking your blood so she doesn’t hurt you.”Brendan’s remark was akin to him telling Charlene that she couldn’t refuse.Charlene looked gloomy and scratched the leather cover on the wheelchair with her fingernails so hard that she almost tore it. She forced a smile and said, “Well, the life of Ms. McKinnon is a human life after all. As long as she can survive, it doesn't matter if I die, let alone donate my blood.”As soon as she finished her sentence, the nurse appeared in a hurry again. “Is the blood donor here? And who's the patient’s next of kin? I need a signature for the emergency medical consent form!”“I am!” Br
Chapter 51 She Was Jailed on Your Behalf
Regardless of how painful the kick was, Steven remained silent and kneeled on the ground. Brendan showed him the medical report on his phone with an intimidating, apathetic expression. “Look at this. Explain yourself.”This was expected, so Steven had long prepared an explanation. He stooped low as he said, “I’m sorry, sir. I wanted to tell you at the time, but I know you very well. If you had found out that Ms. McKinnon lost her sight in jail, you would have definitely done whatever you could to take her out of jail. However, because we were under the watchful eye of the public, your actions would have certainly led to an unintended negative impact on the Brighthall Group. Therefore, I couldn’t say it. I took the liberty not to tell you immediately. I am sorry!”“You took a liberty indeed.” Brendan laughed instead when he got to the point of extreme anger. He looked down at Steven with his ice-cold gaze. “It seems that I’ve been too kind to you, so much so that you can’t tell who’s
Chapter 52 A Slim Chance of Survival
Brendan was willing to be a pillar for Deirdre to rely on. He wished for Deirdre to live a worry-free life until her last breath. But it seemed that Brendan’s wish would never be realized, as Deirdre was about to disappear from the world. It made him feel so much pain that he couldn’t breathe.The doctor could understand Brendan’s feelings as he said, “We’re helpless too. Her lungs are punctured, and the injury she’s suffered is truly severe. What’s more, the patient doesn’t have any desire to live. Unless…”Brendan’s eyes lit up when he heard that there was a slim chance to save Deirdre. “Unless what?”“Unless renowned academic doctor Dr. Killton is willing to step out. Unfortunately, he’s not in Neve currently, and even if he was, he has already stopped performing surgery.”It wasn’t a helpful answer. Brendan tightened his fists and asked coldly, “What about Dr. Killton’s last student?”“His last student?” The doctor was startled but quickly recollected himself and replied, “I
Chapter 53 Are You Comparing Charlene to Yourself?
“Don’t be crazy. Her body is so weak now that I can only set my mind at ease by taking her with me!” Sterling spoke through clenched teeth and took a glance at Charlene. “You have a real fiancee, Charlene, anyhow, right? You should have had your fill now that you’ve ruined her in so many ways!”Brendan’s gaze turned ice-cold abruptly when he heard that remark. “Who are you taking with you? Deirdre is mine. She’s mine for life, and she will be buried in my family’s burial site when she dies. Sterling, don’t even think about showing off just because you saved her!”Upon saying that, Brendan cast a look at his bodyguard before he turned around to head to the intensive care unit, where Deirdre was kept. “Brend…” Charlene turned her wheelchair behind him. She had heard every part of the conversation. Her face was slightly pale, and she said in a piteous tone, “Since Ms. McKinnon’s condition has already been stabilized, will you take me home? The people who brought me here have already l
Chapter 54 They’re Kissing
Deirdre stopped speaking and shut her eyes. Realizing that he was being too harsh, Brendan explained by saying, “There’s no point in comparing yourself to her.”Deirdre remained as quiet as before. Brendan stared at her dry, cracked lips and got up to fetch her a glass of water. “Don’t go to sleep yet. Drink the water before you rest.”Deirdre turned her face to the side. “I want to rest.”“Rest after drinking the water.” Brendan pushed the glass of water toward her by force. Deirdre refused to drink, and while she was struggling, the glass was knocked over and dropped to the ground, producing a loud noise. Brendan was completely infuriated. “Deirdre, why are you doing this? I ignored your suicide attempt without making any comments. In the past, I would have never let you off! You’re still ungrateful, even after all that. Are you only going to behave yourself when I force the drink down your throat!”The collar of her top was wet, and Deirdre’s lips were trembling. She was in
Chapter 55 Charlene Was in the Office
Brendan clenched his fists tightly and ran over to grab Sterling before punching his face ferociously. He was in an uncontrollable rage. “Sterling, are you trying to get yourself f*cking killed?! Did you think that you had a free pass for life just because I said that I’d let you off? Who let you in!”Sterling’s face stung from the punch yet he did not care about anything else. He shoved away Brendan abruptly and said, “Stop getting in the way!”It was an emergency, so he couldn't care less about quarreling with Brendan, yet Brendan was especially furious. “Stop getting in the way? Who are you asking to make way, huh? Who do you think you are? You would have already died a hundred times had Deirdre not threatened me with her life! Who do you think you are to throw a tantrum in my presence!”As he was speaking, the jacket of his suit was tugged by the woman on the bed. Brendan became even more infuriated. “Deirdre, are you trying to get yourself killed as well? Did I save you just so
Chapter 56 All Because of Her
He stood at the door as he watched Deirdre gulp down half a glass of water slowly, his expression icy. Sterling wiped away her sweat for her, and the sight of them moving in such harmony made Brendan clench his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He was agitated by how natural the ambiance between Deirdre and Sterling felt. It made him feel as if he was the outsider who had ruined their harmonious relationship!“How’s your throat?”Deirdre finished her drink while Sterling took the empty glass. Concerned, he asked, “Do you feel better? Has the pain eased up?”Deirdre licked her lips. Her throat had been burning earlier, yet the pain was relieved substantially after she drank half a glass of cold water. She nodded soon. “Much better.”She lowered her gaze and discovered that her voice was still hoarse. Every word she said was painful, yet she still made the effort to say, “Sterling, about your information being exposed online…”“You’re talking about that, huh? There
