Chapter 619 Pathetic People Always Had an Insufferable Side
Laura was stunned for a moment. After a while, she shouted, “I had my own reason for doing that! I didn’t have any choice!”“You didn’t have any choice?” A hint of disgust crossed Deirdre’s eyes. “I really don’t understand. Why do you always make it look like you’re the victim? Is it because you’ve pretended to be one for so long that you’ve already gotten used to it? You take advantage of other people's trust and make everything go your way. And now you act like you're forced to do it? Are you saying that you didn't have a choice, so we could only blame our own bad luck for believing in you and walking into your trap?”Perhaps she had gotten too agitated, as she could feel a throbbing pain in her temples again.She could not stop thinking about the things that had happened inside the car. Even now, she did not know how she should face Kyran. As a victim, she had to act as if she had not been hurt by the incident, while Laura, the accomplice who had started it all, had adopted a s
Chapter 620 He’ll Certainly Lose
He paused for a moment before adding, “It was Laura, right?”Deirdre was shocked. Declan could tell that he had guessed right by looking at Deirdre’s expression. He smiled lightly and said, “Well, it seems like I have a knack for being a detective too.”“Yeah, you’re pretty good at deducing things.” Deirdre fell silent for a while before asking, “So… What do you think about it?”Declan thought for a while and replied, “She’s my brother’s wife, so it’s only right and natural for her to help him. I might have felt hurt before giving this answer, but I feel calm after saying it. After all, there is no better answer to this question.”Deirdre did not say anything else. The woman he loved had tricked him into having sex with another woman. Forget about Declan. If Kyran had done the same thing to her, she would have felt very hurt as well. “She was also one of the victims of the drug, so she hates it more than anyone else,” Declan said. Then, he smiled and added, “Anyway, let’s not t
Chapter 621 Handle the Discharge Procedures
“Lose… for sure?”Deirdre inhaled sharply without her notice. She felt as if the cold air in her chest had turned into dense needles that stabbed into her softest point. Other than pain, she could feel a tinge of fear as well. “What’s going on?” Noticing the sudden unpleasant expression on Deirdre’s face, Declan furrowed his eyebrows ever so slightly. “Did something that I’m unaware of happen?”For as long as Declan remembered, the Kings would never target Brendan easily, no matter how displeased they were with him. Brendan was not to be messed around with, so it would be unnecessary for the Kings to go to war with Brendan just to get an apology.“Nothing.” Deirdre composed her expression. “I’m only surprised because I didn’t expect that the Kings would be associated with that level… You should rest. I’ve got to go because it’s getting late.”“Sure. Fionn.” Declan called out to Fionn, who was guarding the door. “Send Miss McKinnon to her room.”Not long after Deirdre returned
Chapter 622 Get Me the Pill
Brendan took his sweet time to say, “I think that an intelligent woman will learn to accommodate to circumstances, mind her own business, and live every day in a clear and ordered manner. What do you think?”Deirdre batted her eyelashes, and her beautiful face was tainted with unyieldingness. “I think that a normal woman will not agree to be hidden from the truth like a fool. After all, she is a person, not a pet, to be manipulated by others.”Brendan stared at her for a long time while he kept quiet. In the end, he heaved a sigh softly and said, “Don’t worry. Go and rest upstairs. Everything is going to be fine.”Deirdre’s eyes glistened. “Really.”“If I say that everything is going to be fine, I’m not lying to you, of course. We can’t go back to Neve within a short period. Cillian is injured, and the Kings will need to regain their influence anyhow. Hence, you need to be hidden from the public on the cusp of the transition. When the time is right, we’ll go back to Neve, and they
Chapter 623 Every Wrong Has Its Cause
Brendan exuded a powerful presence that felt like the air was burning with anger. However, he suddenly stuffed the medicine back into the bag the next moment. “You spare no effort to make an excuse and act so mysteriously. I thought that it was something else, so it’s just a contraceptive pill. Are you being so secretive because you’re scared that I will be displeased? Deirdre, you know that you’re overthinking, right?”Deirdre was stunned by Brendan’s reaction for a moment, but she realized soon that she should not have acted secretively.She did not wish to be pregnant with Brendan’s child, and he should also share the same thoughts. Why would she think that Brendan would be angered by her decision?“You’re right. I’m overthinking the situation.” She relaxed, unboxed the medicine, and removed the pill from the packaging before taking it with water.Brendan watched from behind. His expression could not be seen clearly due to the poor lighting. After Deirdre swallowed the pill,
Chapter 624 He Won’t Be Coming
Cillian did not fall for her trick. He sneered and said, “You can’t escape from your responsibility in this matter, Miss McKinnon. If you were to behave yourself and go along with my plan, I wouldn’t need to go as far as to be punished like this.”As he was speaking, he could not help but inhale sharply. He cupped his extremely swollen face, and a look of malice flashed past his eyes. “However, don’t you worry, Miss McKinnon. Brendan is definitely not having it easier than you.”Deirdre could fully confirm that Cillian’s target was Brendan judging by his speech.She said, “You loathe Brendan so much. I’m curious why you didn't capture Brendan but came for me instead?”Cillian cracked a taunting smile. “Are you really confused, or are you acting confused? Brendan loves you so much. Will he remain unconcerned if he finds out that you’ve been abducted? He will surely sacrifice everything he can, even if it means that he has to bow down to me just to ensure your safety!”Deirdre was c
Chapter 625 Work Together
Deirdre shuddered violently and felt a feeling of disgust that she had never felt before. “You pervert!”Cillian burst out laughing aloud. “It has been a long time since anyone has called me that way. It’s no wonder Brendan is so fond of you. You sound as sweet as a nightingale’s call even when you're berating someone.”Deirdre clenched her fists tightly. She knew that it would be useless for her to speak further at this point. It would be a waste of time for her to talk more to a merciless, heartless man like Cillian. Yet… would Brendan come and save her?She knew the answer but was still feeling uneasy in her heart. She did not want or need Brendan to come, but on the other hand, she was having a hard time enduring Cillian’s torture. Perhaps she should not have listened to Brendan and come to Eastgene from the start. She had to pay such a great price just to get a divorce.Afterward, Cillian called up Brendan. It was apparent he had already realized Deirdre had been abducte
Chapter 626 Why Should I Trust You?
He had not expected the woman before him to have the nerve to play mind games with him at a moment like this.“I know exactly what you are thinking. You want to run away, right? I can’t believe that you would stoop so low as to use this kind of excuse. What makes you think that I’ll work with Brendan’s woman?”“The devil takes the hindmost. Maybe a second earlier, I was still Brendan’s woman, but since he refused to come to my rescue to save himself, why shouldn't I find another way to save myself?” Deirdre said candidly. She laid herself bare and added, “Mr. King, all I care about is my own safety. To achieve my goal, I’m willing to do anything I can, including betray Brendan.” Cillian squinted his eyes. There was a voice in his mind telling him to guard himself against the woman before him. After all, not everyone could stay as calm as she had when she had been abducted.That being said, he was curious about the things that Deirdre had said.“Then how are you going to take reve
