Chapter 918 Discovered
Deirdre was stunned for a while, feeling touched.Other than Madame Brighthall, Mrs. Engel was the only one who treated her well.Deirdre let Mrs. Engel in before she sat on the chair. As Deirdre smelled the aroma of the stuffed vegetables, she began to feel hungry and started nibbling.Mrs. Engel couldn’t stay idle and began cleaning. Suddenly, she saw a man’s shirt, which had just been taken off in the bathroom.Startled, she picked it up and saw that it was the one Brendan had been wearing earlier.While eating, Deirdre didn’t hear any sound from Mrs. Engel’s movements. Hence, she lifted her head and asked, “Mrs. Engel, what’s wrong?”Mrs. Engel came to her senses and tossed the shirt aside.“Nothing. I’m just tired from cleaning and need to rest against the wardrobe for a while.” Mrs. Engel changed the subject and asked, “Mrs. Brighthall, how’s the taste of the stuffed vegetables this time?”“They are very delicious, just like the taste of my hometown,” replied Deirdre, fin
Chapter 919 Drug Administration
The man didn’t say anything while his subordinate rummaged through Charlene's bag and took out a pack of medicine with rudeness.The man took it, checked it, and suddenly threw it on Charlene’s face.“So, this is what you meant when you said you’ve almost ruined their relationship! Then, why did you buy medicine? Don’t tell me you must take the drug yourself just to get close to Brendan!”Charlene’s face turned pale, and she explained, “No… It’s not like you’ve said. It’s because Bren, I, and Deirdre are living together. Bren is unwilling to do it when Deirdre is around, so I—”“Can you guarantee that Brendan will take the drug and touch you?”“Yes, I can guarantee it!” Charlene immediately nodded.Because Deirdre was pregnant, Brendan had no other choice but her.“Okay.” The man sneered. “I’ll give you another chance. If you can’t get pregnant, I’ll figure out another way for you.”The man sounded calm when he said he would figure out another way for Charlene, but Charlene fel
Chapter 920 Deirdre as the Unwitting Beneficiary
Even though Brendan was panting heavily, he couldn’t suppress his sexual desire at all. Deirdre noticed something was off and asked, “Brendan, what’s wrong?”Brendan recalled that cup of coffee and furiously clenched his fists so tightly that his veins popped. “Charlene has drugged me.”“What?” Deirdre was taken aback, unable to believe that Charlene was bold enough to drug Brendan without fear of consequences.“What should we do? Should I call an ambulance and take you to the hospital?”“No, if I go to the hospital, Charlene will suspect something,” refused Brendan while trying to maintain his last bit of sanity.“What should we do then?” Deirdre was panicking. “The drug is so potent. If you don’t go to the hospital, it may harm your health! Are you saying…”Deirdre choked up. She couldn’t help but shiver uncontrollably when she thought of the solution.This was not the first time such a thing had happened. She could omit her own thoughts, but because she was pregnant, she co
Chapter 921 She Would Do Anything
Charlene shoved Mrs. Engel with all her might, only for Mrs. Engel to block her arm steadily. Even though Mrs. Engel was a middle-aged woman, she spent her days performing heavy labor, so her body was strong. Charlene was a woman who refused to perform any chores, so she was no match for Mrs. Engel. Charlene’s expression turned unpleasant at once. She was glaring at Mrs. Engel with a malicious gaze.Mrs. Engel was expressionless and repeated herself, “Miss McKinney, you can’t enter the study room in view of the situation. It would be best for you to return to your room and rest.”Charlene gnashed her teeth and said threateningly, “Mrs. Engel, you should be well aware of Brendan’s attitude toward me. When he marries me, I will be the family’s matriarch. Do you think Brendan will mind if I do something to you by then?”Mrs. Engel smiled and said, “I don’t know if Mr. Brighthall will mind it, but I’m aware that I’ll be safe for one more day as long as Miss McKinnon is here. I will
Chapter 922 Get the Coffee Tested
Hence, Deirdre was not surprised that Charlene would spike Brendan’s drink, but she was surprised by Brendan’s determination. Frankly, she did not trust Brendan very much. After all, Deirdre had become extremely passive because of the things Brendan did in the past. Yet, Brendan would actually choose to forcefully brace the medicine effect and lose consciousness so he would not hurt her. Mrs. Engel’s gaze landed on Brendan’s flawlessly handsome face. His eyebrows were still tightly furrowed in his unconscious state. One could imagine how unpleasant the experience was for him earlier. “Mrs. Brighthall.” Mrs. Engel could not refrain from saying, “Mr. Brighthall loves you very much, really.”-Brendan woke up feeling sore all over his body. Half of his body was numb from being squeezed into a small sofa in view of his tall and muscular physique. He was preparing to get up when he felt the weight pinning down his waist. He lowered his head and found Deirdre lying on him. She had
Chapter 923 Sir, He’s Going to Kill Me!
Brendan did not speak but looked at her with his icy cold eyes. There was no telling what was on his mind. Charlene could not help feeling guilty. “Brendan…”“Charlene, don’t think that I’m a fool,” said Brendan. The coldness exuded from his body, and his eyes that could see through her were all meant to warn her. “I don’t want what happened last night to happen again, do you understand?”“Brendan…” Charlene was scared out of her wits, and tears streamed down her face instantly. She had no choice but to acknowledge her guilt at this point. “I didn’t do that on purpose. I love you too much, and I fell for a doctor’s advice. I thought that doing this would reconcile our relationship, I—”“It seems that you don’t understand my words.” Brendan interrupted her coldly. “I want you to answer that you won’t let this happen again.”He leaned over with narrowed eyes and a cold demeanor. "I despise being a pawn in someone's plan. Ophelia's survival is of lesser importance to me than being m
Chapter 924 Was She With You?
Charlene bent over and got on her knees as she crawled her way to the man’s legs eagerly like a dog, with tears streaming down her face. “Sir! Please give me one more chance! I promise you! I promise you that I’ll get pregnant with Brendan’s child this time!”The man was unmoved. Soon, Charlene was captured by those men again. Her agonizing scream was blood-curdling.The man furrowed his eyebrows in contempt. He thought of something and sniggered coldly. “Isn’t it even better to get Brendan to raise a b*stard?”Charlene lost count of time until she regained consciousness. ‘This is all Deirdre’s fault!’The taxi driver looked at her with a mocking gaze after seeing the messy marks on her body. Charlene gnashed her teeth and scolded him until she arrived at the mansion. The grief and anger in her heart overwhelmed her quickly as soon as she saw the woman sitting peacefully on the sofa enjoying her dessert. “Deirdre, why are you so proud of yourself, huh? You’re lucky that Brend
Chapter 925 Five Men
‘Behaving abnormally?’Brendan kept quiet for a moment before he answered calmly, “No. I’ve been in company meetings all day, and I haven’t left yet.”‘Haven’t left yet?’Deirdre was convinced, and Brendan asked, “Why? Is she stirring up trouble with you again?”“I’m used to her stirring up trouble because she is all talk and no action at most. I will just ignore her, but today, she…” Deirdre was having trouble putting it into words. Was she supposed to tell Brendan personally that Charlene was cheating on him because she could possibly be sleeping with other men?If she were to say that, she would hurt the man’s sense of pride easily.“Forget it, it’s fine.”“It’s not like you to stop yourself from saying something you want to say.” Brendan took a glance at Sam standing at the door and said, “I’ll just consider it as you keeping me in suspense, and I’ll be back tonight to recover it.”He ended the call, and Deirdre’s ears blushed with shyness. She came to understand what the
