Deirdre moved her soft lips. She wanted to say that as long as Emily was still in between them, they would never be able to smoothly be together. But after thinking about it, she didn't say anything."You should go to the company first. I want to meet your psychologist when I'm free. I want to ask him about your condition."There was a strange look in Brendan's eyes. "Okay. I'll arrange for you two to meet."Deirdre said, "Tomorrow. I want to see your psychologist tomorrow."If it weren't for the fact that it was too last minute and she was worried that the psychologist wouldn't be able to make it, she even wanted to meet the psychologist today, no, now! She wanted to know more about Brendan's condition. Perhaps this was one of the factors behind Brendan's distrust of her."Okay, I'll arrange for you two to meet tomorrow." Brendan wanted to hold her hand but finally gave up. Before receiving treatment, he didn't dare to get close to Deirdre again."I'll leave first." Brendan tidi
Ophelia had always been very kind. In Village Alnwick, she was even so kind that she let others order her around. Even when other people threw their clothes to her for washing, she happily accepted it.Now… Perhaps her mentality had changed?Seeing Deirdre deep in thought with downcast eyes, Ophelia held her hand."Dee, you were already pregnant when I came, so I can only treat Brendan as my son-in-law. If he treats you well, I have no complaints, but look at the current situation." Ophelia's eyes had a complicated look. "He doesn't keep a distance from other women, and he has done many bad things to you. He is not a suitable person for you, can you understand?"Deirdre was stunned for a moment before nodding immediately.Ophelia thought of something. "Sterling is a very good man. I used to treat him like my future son-in-law. He is back now, and you two would be a great match."When Sterling was mentioned suddenly, Deirdre was stunned for a while."Mom..." She said awkwardly,
Brendan looked solemn. "Are you sure that my emotions will no longer get out of control after the counseling?"Emily smiled confidently. "Instead of doubting, Mr. Brighthall, why don't you try it yourself? You'll know then."Brendan was skeptical. Emily lit the incense, which exuded a pungent smell. Especially since the window was closed, Brendan's mood unexpectedly relaxed when he smelled it.Emily took a pocket watch out of her bag and put it in front of Brendan. "Mr. Brighthall, let's start."Brendan fainted, and after an unknown period of time, he gradually woke up. His head was a little heavy, but his body was relaxed."I fell asleep?"Emily was originally sitting far away, but when she heard this, she came over. "Yes, Mr. Brighthall. You were too stressed out and fell asleep quickly during the counseling."Brendan held his forehead. He hadn't slept so soundly for a long time."How long have I been asleep?""Ten hours."Brendan's pupils shrank sharply. Ten hours?He ope
Deirdre blinked and sat up unconsciously. "How was it?""It's not bad. I slept for ten hours, and my mental state feels a lot more stable. If this continues, I won't do that kind of thing again."Deirdre couldn't help being surprised. "Ten hours? That psychologist is so amazing?""Yeah. I've never slept so soundly before."Brendan saw the woman's face through the moonlight, leaned over passionately, and kissed the corner of her lips. He just gave her a peck and soon put his head on Deirdre's shoulder."Deirdre, I'll get better."Deirdre lowered her eyes. Facing Brendan, who had revealed his vulnerable side, she had mixed feelings in her heart, but she mostly felt bad for him. He didn't want to lose control of his emotions, and he had been working hard to control them."Yeah. I'll wait for you."After responding, Brendan twitched the corners of his lips and held Deirdre's fingertips tightly. At such a close distance, he even had the illusion that he could hear her heartbeats.D
Hearing them bicker, Deirdre was slightly annoyed. It felt as if they would argue every time they met. They would've gotten into a fight if they weren't holding back."Stop arguing. It's time for breakfast. Sterry, have you eaten yet?"Sterling said, "Yesterday, I regretted not trying your mother's cooking, so I haven't eaten anything today. You've kept a portion for me, right?"Ophelia came out of the kitchen in a hurry. "Yes! I've specially kept some for you."Deirdre also walked over. "I made egg custard, exactly four of them, one for each of us."She put the egg custard on the serving plate, and before she could take it out, Brendan went to take it himself."I'll do it."He directly took four of the egg custard and placed two in front of him.Deirdre was taken aback. "If you take two of them, what about Sterry?"Brendan looked at him provocatively. "I haven't tasted the egg custard yet. Mr. Fuller, you don't mind if I take two, do you?"Sterling smiled. "Of course, I don'
Deirdre raised her head in astonishment. "You believe me?"Sterling smiled. "Don't put too much burden on yourself. Although I don't like Brendan, he is really not the kind of person who hurts you maliciously and escapes responsibility by blaming it on his illness."I also thought it was strange at first. It stands to reason that even if he took you away, he would not cross the line for the child's sake, but since that happened, it shows that he was acting impulsively, but he has always been relatively calm."Deirdre's pupils trembled. She was happy and excited and pursed her lips. "This is what happened... I couldn't figure it out, but I finally understood it when he said that he had been haunted by nightmares for half a month and would only sleep for three or four hours daily. He has a mental problem, and the symptoms only appeared after he fell ill. He did this to save my mother. I have no reason to just ignore this."With a serious expression, Sterling looked at Deirdre worried
The explanation given by Emily was that his body was too exhausted that it would sleep retributively after feeling relaxed. It would get much better as time passed.At that moment, Deirdre received a call from Declan."Ms. McKinnon, why don't you come to relax at Eastgene with Brendan?"Declan had been busy with the King family's affairs. Yet, not only did he call her today, but he also invited her to go to Eastgene to relax, and it caught her by surprise.She joked, "Seeing that you called to invite me over so suddenly, something good must have happened?"Declan smiled sullenly. "You guessed it right. I have good news."Deirdre was taken aback, "What good news?"Declan kept her guessing. "I'll tell you when you come here."He hung up the phone, but Deirdre couldn't wait until she went over to Eastgene. When Brendan returned, she asked him if he knew what had happened."Declan? He called you because he has good news?""Yeah." Deirdre nodded. "He wanted to invite us to Eastgen
Deirdre was taken aback and slightly embarrassed. "Brendan, that's cheating!""No, it's not," Brendan said seriously. "I won't get the reward until tomorrow. It stands to reason that I should tell you about it tomorrow, but if you want to know in advance, you have to give me a taste first."If Deirdre didn't know what the man was thinking, she might have been fooled by his serious attitude."Are you really just looking for a taste? You are clearly…" She couldn't say it aloud.Brendan knew that she was thin-skinned, so he asked without hesitation, "What is it?"Deirdre lowered her head. "If I kiss you once, you'll tell me?"Brendan smiled. "Yes."Deirdre pursed her lips. Even though she couldn't see him clearly now, she knew that the man was waiting for her kiss. For some reason, something as normal as kissing became slightly awkward and feisty under the man's waiting.Deirdre suppressed the burning heat in her chest and resigned herself to kissing Brendan's lips. She intended t
