Chapter 755 She Won’t Come Back Again
“What do you mean by impossible?” Brendan’s handsome face was indifferent. The corners of his lips curled up into a mocking smile when he said, “You’ve underestimated her too much. What can't she do to stay away from me? Let alone to board a cargo ship, even if she was asked to dive into the water, she would never hesitate…”His eyelids were so heavy again that he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Following that, he asked soberly, "Where are those ships going?"Sam belatedly realized that Brendan was asking him a question and replied, “It’s not clear because those ships can go anywhere with the waterway extended toward all directions. Special cargo ships are heading for almost all reachable cities.”Brendan didn’t say anything else. He merely bent to pour himself a glass of wine and continued pouring it down his throat.Sam felt heartache and advised, “Mr. Brighthall, stop drinking. You got well not long ago. What if your health relapses?”With a sardonic smile, Brendan pour
Chapter 756 Are You Injured?
There was no need to sign a contract, and the house had two rooms and one living room, making it very convenient to live in.After settling down, Tobey took Deirdre to a clinic to check on her pregnancy.After the consultation and tests, the doctor said there were signs of miscarriage. The embryo would have been lost if it weren't for good luck.Deirdre was reminded of the day they were on the run—she had been bleeding and almost had had a miscarriage.Fortunately, she had managed to pull it through. Otherwise, she might not have been able to survive the miscarriage on the ship.Following that, the doctor prescribed some medicine for Deirdre. The total cost for the consultation fee and medicine was about 300 dollars.When they had to pay, Deirdre couldn’t help but feel pain.“Tobey, what about we don’t take the medicine…” Deirdre’s face turned pale because she knew it was the time when they needed money the most. “The child… will be aborted sooner or later. Hence, it's a pity to
Chapter 757 Forget Everything and Restart
“Well, there’s nothing to cry about. We’re just hiding temporarily, not forever. When Brendan gives up, I’ve enough experience to work in a big company. This job that I found pays daily, and it’s an opportunity for me to gain experience. Hence, I think it’s quite good.”Although Tobey said it was quite good, Deirdre didn’t think so. She knew how tough it was to work at a construction site. She thought the job might be suitable only for a middle-aged man without a degree who had never enjoyed a good life.However, Tobey was still young. He used to be a manager with an annual salary of more than 100,000 dollars in a national company, yet he had to lower his status to work under someone else.She thought it was ridiculous.However, she had no right to say no because Tobey was the one who had to support their daily lives.Swallowing back her tears, she washed the apples in the bag. When she handed Tobey one, he said, “Don’t pressure yourself, Deirdre. In fact, I do enjoy my current li
Chapter 758 Found Madame Russell
Tobey still went out early and came back late. With the thought that she couldn’t be decadent, Deirdre went to the supermarket downstairs and asked the proprietress, “Is there anyone looking for a piano teacher in this neighborhood?” “I’m afraid that you’re asking in the wrong place. After all, only the rich enjoy playing this thing. In this neighborhood, we can even quarrel just for the sake of daily necessities. Who would care about this hobby?” replied the proprietress while snacking.Before Deirdre could say anything, the proprietress recalled, “By the way, I remembered two days ago, a filming crew came looking for a substitute who could play the piano. I’m not sure if they’ve found any, but I think you may go to have a try. Moreover, with your beautiful appearance, you may have an opportunity to become an actress if the director likes you.”“Becoming an actress?” Deirdre smiled as she shook her head.She couldn’t afford to do it regardless of the pay.She didn’t know when Br
Chapter 759 Notice for Missing Person
“Oh, I see,” said Madame Russell while wiping her tears. “Previously, Tobey told me that he just wanted to meet Deirdre, but why did he disappear along with her? What’s happening actually?”While looking at the panic-stricken Madame Russell, a ray of hope grew within Brendan’s heart.He was glad that God had given him a chance, and he became clearer about Deirdre’s character.She was indeed cruel, but she couldn’t ignore Madame Russell and the people around her.Provided Madame Russell was with him, he would not be afraid that Deirdre would run further away.“Well, it’s a long story. I had a conflict with Deirdre.”“What?”No one knew whether Brendan was sincere or acting when he looked haggard with compassion in his eyes. “She’s pregnant, and perhaps that’s the reason she was emotional. She wanted to go out, but I was worried about her health and stopped her. Perhaps it was for this reason that Mr. Russell thought that I was controlling her freedom and took her to escape privat
Chapter 760 He Had Come Searching!
The people in the surroundings also joined in the fun. “Why would the person from Neve publish a notice of a missing person here?”“I saw it at the door too. It’s everywhere.”“Probably she’s his kin? Aww, it’s so fortunate for her to have such a man with status to spend a lot of money searching for her. In fact, I saw the notice too on TV!” Deirdre’s expression stiffened. She almost couldn’t control her expression, yet she couldn’t run away. Hence, clenching her fists, she asked, “What’s stated in the notice? Is it just a simple notice of a missing person?”The proprietress took a detailed look at it and replied, “It doesn’t seem to go into detail.”Deirdre nodded her head. When she was leaving the supermarket, she could barely control her expression.‘Brendan has come searching for me here! He has come here!’Deirdre walked back to the house feeling weak and shaky. She couldn’t regain her calmness and composure even after a long time she sat on the sofa. When she heard the kn
Chapter 761 Real Man
“I shall take over the grocery shopping task as well. I’ll do it on my way home from work. You will only need to set your mind at ease and stay home. You don’t need to bother yourself with anything else. Don’t open the door to anyone other than me.”“Sure.” Deirdre’s face was ghastly pale. It was her only option now.Deirdre spent the next few days constantly in deep distress. Every time she heard footsteps outside, she would be scared out of her wits. However, it was fortunate that nothing bad happened.“You don’t need to worry too much. How can Brendan possibly be able to locate us when we’re in a huge place like Surstate? He’s not the director with the script of our life stories. You don’t need to be too worried.”Tobey took two bites of the meal and comforted Deirdre by saying, “You can go out for a walk to relax your mind once the dust settles. You don’t need to stay in the room all day long because that won’t be good for the baby.”Deirdre’s grip over her cutlery tightened
Chapter 762 Determined to Find You
Madame Russell was still speaking, yet blood drained from Deirdre’s face. -Somewhere in a room, Sam took away Madame Russell’s phone and said to the man on the sofa, “The call has been hung up, sir.”Brendan sat on the sofa in the corner, and his chiseled jawline was perfectly separated into dark and light under the dim lighting. His dark pupils were hidden in the shadows and glistening like obsidian. His well-fitted suit complemented his tall, lanky figure, yet his entire person exuded a threatening yet cold presence. He tapped on the sofa’s leather with his finger.It was his first time hearing Deirdre’s voice in the past two weeks. She seemed to be living very well, judging by her voice, much better than when she was with him. At the thought of that, he could not help tightening his fist so strongly until his knuckles turned white.Yet, why would she live so well when she was away from him?She had no money and no lavish lifestyle, but she sounded like she lived every
