Chapter 889 Brendan was Hopeless
Brendan remained silent.Deirdre smiled and replied, “Mr. Griffin, I didn’t know that you knew so much. Do you think power can override the law? It seems like you’ve done this kind of thing a lot before, using your power to settle certain matters?”Feeling a pang, Desmond shouted, “Shut up!”“Who are you telling to shut up?” retorted Brendan as his smile faded.Desmond was at a loss for words.At that moment, Deirdre hooked her arm around Brendan’s and said, “Let it go, Bren. It’s understandable that Mr. Griffin is upset when his thoughts have been exposed. Don’t forget that we’re only here to congratulate Mr. Griffin today. I believe he’s open-minded enough not to care about the two of us talking, right?”Deirdre’s words put Desmond in a position whereby he would be seen as a petty man if he were to be enraged.Clenching his fists, Desmond recalled something and held back. “Do as you please! I don’t have time to cater to you!”Desmond turned and walked away, followed by severa
Chapter 890 Don’t Give Up the Future for Woman
“Are you thinking about it on my behalf?” said Brendan with surprise.Deirdre blushed at Brendan’s words and replied only after a moment, “Apart from you thinking about something on my behalf and vice versa, is there nothing else? I just hope that you will be in a better situation. If you continue to act this way, Charlene may not want you anymore.”“What about you? Do you want me?” asked Brendan.Stunned, Deirdre shifted her focus away from Brendan and replied, “If even Charlene doesn’t want you, how can you expect me to want you?”“But I’m capable, handsome, loyal, and ambitious. I’ve got lots of advantages as long as you are careful to discover them,” said Brendan.Deirdre ignored Brendan’s bragging and continued to eat the snacks. She tasted some tasty ones and couldn’t help but want more.Subconsciously, she reached out to take more snacks from the plate, but it was empty.Seeing it, Brendan said, “Do you like them? Wait a minute. I’ll ask if there are more in the kitchen.
Chapter 891 Police Swoop
Mr. Zimmer watched them for a long time. He wanted to say something but refrained from speaking forcefully.“If you think your choice is right, you may go on, but it will be difficult for you to remove Desmond from his position when he holds it steadily. I’m with you.”Upon saying that, he turned around and left. Deirdre said, “Mr. Zimmer has a good attitude but is exasperated by you.”“I know.” Brendan was calm and composed. Deirdre asked, “Do you regret helping me in the hospital? If you were to send someone to help, you would still be safe and sound and would be the Brighthall Group’s ruler now.”Brendan’s gaze landed on Deirdre’s face with a meaningful look on his face. “My only regret is not helping you when I passed by the room the first time.”He spoke in a sincere tone, and his gaze was deep.Deirdre was at a loss for words, so she could only answer, “You will regret it.” Then, she lowered her head to take a sip of her juice. The party was peaceful. In fact, Deirdre
Chapter 892 Plead Guilty
“Don’t deserve it, you say?”Brendan clutched the glass and burst out in laughter upon hearing that, but his eyes had no joy. “It seems that you’re not the one to determine if I deserve it, Mr. Griffin.”“Brendan! You’re still unrepentant at this point!” One board member angrily pointed at Brendan and berated him, “How will the Brighthall Group be in a crisis if not because of you? Everyone is discussing how to handle the situation with great effort so we can support the Brighthall Group through the crisis, yet you’ve actually brought a criminal with you! You brought in the police as well! You’re creating trouble for the Brighthall Group and bringing dishonor to your family!”“He’s right, Mr. Brighthall. You used to be outstanding and capable in the past. Even though you were young and reckless, the board of directors chose to tolerate you because we wanted the Brighthall Group to grow and expand. Yet, you disregarded the company because of a woman, and you’ve created such a big mes
Chapter 893 Why Are You Capturing Mr. Griffin?
“Not to mention he puts his heart and soul into his work over the years, while you’ve only guided the people around you without bothering to provide him with a basic salary increment.”Desmond raised his chin high and laughed proudly while he was speaking. “However, the first thing I’ll do is to guide and support Reagan when I assume my new role, so he will be promoted to the position that he deserves!”Reagan felt slightly guilty initially, but his gaze was tainted with determination and coldness when he looked at Brendan upon hearing the remark. He said to Desmond flatteringly, “Thank you, Mr. Griffin.”Desmond cracked a smile in pride. “It is what you deserve from the start, and I won’t treat you poorly, of course.”Brendan’s expression was indifferent, and his dark eyes were deep. He asked Reagan, “Is this the condition he offered you?”Reagan’s expression changed, and he cleared his throat. “I don’t understand what you’re implying, Mr. Brighthall. I understand Mr. Griffin’s i
Chapter 894 Charlene Dropped the Charge
“That’s right!” Everyone assumed that the police officer was mistaken. “These two people here are the offenders! One of them is Deirdre McKinnon, who pushed someone down the stairs, while the other… is the criminal’s accomplice who harbors said criminal! It would be best to capture both of them! They have no affiliation with the people in the hall!”The police officer furrowed his eyebrows and asked, while looking at Desmond in handcuffs, “Are you Desmond Griffin?”Desmond hastily nodded. “Yes! I am!”“There’s no mistake then. We’re taking you precisely. Someone reported you for tax evasion. Not only that, but our other team found poison in your mistress’ home. You’re coming with us at once!”The police took Desmond forcefully, and Mr. Church hastily stopped them. He pointed at Deirdre and asked, “How about her then? She is a criminal! Why aren’t you taking her first?”“Criminal?” The police officer frowned. “Firstly, even if she is guilty, she will be charged with intentional ass
Chapter 895 The Arrest
Since it was a misunderstanding, the wind of change was blowing through the online community. The website was packed with users who were not only deleting their hateful comments but also posting their apologies. The entry ‘Brendan is a good man’ received a high upvote. At the same time, another entry was upvoted as well. “What is the meaning of this entry 'Let's talk about the dirty deeds of the Brighthall Group’s Desmond Griffin and his accomplices’?”Mr. Church’s expression changed drastically. He hastily clicked on the hashtag and discovered that the dirty deeds that Desmond, he, and a few others had committed had been exposed. His knees buckled all at once, and he sat on the floor weakly. He glared at Brendan in despair. “You madman! You took a bet on the Brighthall Group’s future on purpose!”Brendan loosened his tie and said coldly, “I learned that there were quite a few sneaky rats in the Brighthall Group when I was caught in a series of events, but I didn’t expect t
Chapter 896 Why Is Charlene Helping Us?
Brendan smiled and approached him. “Uncle Zimmer.”Mr. Zimmer was stunned for a moment. He walked over and said, “Well done.”“I was hoping that you wouldn’t mind it, Uncle Zimmer. I had to hide from everyone before the situation came to an end.”“Why would I mind?” Mr. Zimmer appeared to be in a daze for a moment. Soon afterward, he smiled and patted Brendan’s shoulder. “You saw through Desmond and the others before me. I’m delighted you have a keen sense of people and can implement solid measures. It seems it is totally fine to hand over the company to you so I can set my mind at ease and retire…”As he was speaking, he took a glance at Deirdre. “I’m sorry, Miss McKinnon.”Deirdre was surprised that a senior like him would lower himself to apologize to her. She lowered her eyes and said, “You don’t need to apologize, Mr. Zimmer. I remembered you helping me previously too.”“No, that is not the same thing. At the time, I thought that you were… I treated you in a very poor manner
