Sterling looked at the address on the phone and said slowly, "Perhaps we don't need him anymore.""Why?""Emily just called and told me that she would send me Brendan's current address. The address has already been sent to my phone."Deirdre's pupils were shaking, and her face was filled with disbelief. Soon afterward, she furrowed her eyebrows ferociously and said in confusion, "Why is she so kindhearted?""It's possible that the address is fake. It might just be a trap."Sterling fell silent. 'It would be best if it's not a real address, or else…'"Regardless of its authenticity or falseness, whether it's a trap or a prank, we are left with no other options at this point."Deirdre hastily asked, "Where is the location? Let's go over there quickly!"Deirdre exercised caution by getting Fionn to assign his people to wait at the address on the way there.The address was a house in a residential area. By the time Sterling and Deirdre drove over, the people assigned by Fionn were

“The father of the… child?” Brendan repeated the remark with great effort and felt his chest burning.Deirdre had actually referred to him as the father of the child. She would never acknowledge that in the past.He was caught in a daze all at once.Deirdre inhaled a deep breath, raised her head, and tried to persuade Brendan. "Why can't two people share the burden of something? Especially when it is a mental health issue. You need more care and concern. You won't be suffering from the illness for the rest of your life. I will keep you company. I will keep you company while you receive treatment, alright?"Brendan looked at Deirdre's sincere gaze. He almost blurted out the words, ' great then'.In the next moment, he lowered his head and said, "No."He was not a fool and could tell from Deirdre's gaze that she was doing it so he would not feel guilty. However, it was precisely due to her kindness that he refused to be selfish anymore. "Deirdre, you have no idea about my current

Deirdre felt conflicted before she said those words. However, she felt as if she was relieved of a heavy burden after uttering those words.Perhaps she had already known the answer in her heart for a long time, but she was feeling so torn all this time because of the past events that she did not have the courage to move forward."Deirdre, you said it yourself. Don't leave me."Deirdre shut her eyes and leaned on Brendan's shoulder. "I won't."After hugging for a while, Deirdre realized that numerous people were watching behind her. She felt very embarrassed, but those people said casually, "We can set our minds at ease knowing that Ms. McKinnon has such a good relationship with Mr. Brighthall. Since there's nothing else, we shall make a move first.""Alright."Those people walked away, leaving behind only Sterling.Brendan looked at Sterling without any hostility in his eyes. However, he behaved like a puppy with food aggression after receiving Deirdre's love with great effort

It was one of the ideas she had come up with. Brendan was worried he would act wrongly out of impulse and hurt Deirdre as well as the baby in her womb. Hence, Deirdre had given the order to release Sam from the organization.Firstly, she did it because she owed it to Sam. She was supposed to look for an opportunity to free him.Secondly, she did it because Sam was the only person she could trust. He had helped her so much in the past."I've rested way too long in the organization, so I rushed over without stopping as soon as I learned that Mr. Brighthall assigned me to protect Ms. McKinnon. I would like to show myself."Sam was still as cheerful and had a nimble tongue as he did in the past. Deirdre felt gratified, but at the same time, she could not help laughing. "I was planning on giving you two days of rest first, yet you're more eager to get back to work than me. It's possible that you won't be receiving any days off in the next few days, you know.""It's all that I could

"I know. I've already instructed Brendan to work remotely and hold virtual meetings while I've been holding his phone. I will notice if Emily is playing some sort of trick at once.""Hmm." Sterling felt more at ease after learning that and left after preparing medicine for Deirdre.In the next few days, Brendan received psychotherapy for two hours per day in good order, and his condition was improving at a visible speed.Brendan's condition was becoming more stable. He would bump into Sterling and Deirdre chatting to each other and sit down to listen to their conversation calmly.Two more days passed when Deirdre suddenly received a call from an unknown number.She put the phone on her ear, confused. "Who's this?"The other end kept quiet for a while before a nonchalant chuckle sounded. "Have you forgotten about me, Ms. McKinnon?"'Emily?'Deirdre's entire body suddenly turned stiff, and her expression tensed up. She knew that no one else was around her, so she pulled a long fa

Brendan was stunned by her series of questions. He recovered from his surprise, tilted the woman's chin to look at her concerned face up close, and smiled in satisfaction."Even though I want to lie to you badly, my body is completely fine." Brendan said in a strong voice, "Not only that, but my mental state is much more refreshed than before. But if I have to say something…"He attractively lowered his voice, and Deirdre waited for him to finish his sentence nervously. Then, she felt Brendan's lips rubbing against her lips. "I feel like succumbing to my appetite, and my urge is growing stronger by the day."Deirdre was stunned. She came to realize the situation a few seconds later and was extremely shy. She poked at Brendan's arm and said, "Will you please behave more decently, Brendan? Where is your serious demeanor that you used to have?""With you around, I only care about enjoying myself and nothing else."As Brendan spoke, his hands ran along Deirdre's garment and under her

Sam was monitoring the commotion outside at all times. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he could not help heaving a sigh and counting with his fingers.It had been three hours.'Mr. Brighthall is strong and energetic, just like when he was younger!'He shut his eyes, yet he did not hear Brendan returning to his room. On the contrary, he heard the commotion from the garage downstairs. He pulled open the curtain and saw a car driving out of the garage into the night.Sam was stunned. Who was driving the car out of the garage so late at night?When the thought occurred to him, Sam's heart was racing. He hastily opened the room and turned to Brendan's room.The door was not locked, so it was opened with just a gentle nudge. The room was empty, which proved that Brendan was the person who had driven away earlier.Sam's expression was unpleasant and solemn. 'It's late…'He was under the assumption that Brendan would be spending the night in Deirdre's room, but that was no

"Not only do I believe it, but I'm also very worried that what Emily said might come true. That's why I asked you to keep an eye on Brendan. If his health is jeopardized, it may mean that Emily has done something to him."Sam was dumbfounded when he heard that. His mind went blank when he thought of Brendan going out last night. Brendan was indeed acting strange, but he had just sneaked out in the middle of the night. He didn't know where he had gone nor who he had met.Sam didn't dare to tell Deirdre the truth. After all, Brendan hadn't stayed in his room but gone out secretly in the middle of the night. No matter how Sam thought about it, something like this would cause her to overthink. He didn't want Deirdre to misunderstand.Deirdre continued. "Sam, my eyes are unwell, and I can't see many things, so please help me to keep an eye on Brendan. I have a feeling that Emily will not end things easily."Sam replied with mixed emotions, "Okay, I will."After breakfast, Sam excused h

"Where is she?"Brendan stared at him, utterly surprised. Sean's voice trembled a bit, but his eyes held a clear and hopeful gaze.Brendan finally calmed down and looked behind him. "There, that's your mother."This was the first time Sean had spoken. Deirdre felt her mind buzzing. When she snapped back to reality, she extended her hand. "Sean, come here."Sean's eyes held gentle amazement. He was intelligent—perhaps he had sensed it on the way there. Thus, his feelings were a blend of happiness and satisfaction.He felt joy that Deirdre was going to be his mother.Being a kid, he took a few steps but couldn't stop his tears, holding onto Deirdre firmly.Deirdre suppressed her own urge to cry and crouched down, wiping away his tears. "Do you... hate mom for not being there and not recognizing you?"Sean shook his head frantically. "As long as you're here… That's enough…"Deirdre hugged him tightly, and Brendan approached, wrapping them both in his embrace.When they brought S
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1572 The Parkers is Entrusted to You
"I was too young back then, still sulking with my father," Brendan replied after recalling his childhood.Arthur chuckled. "Kids will be kids, after all. Besides, your father was an excellent businessman, and you've followed in his footsteps. I've heard about your impressive success with the business in Neve. You're truly talented. With the Parkers under your control, I can finally relax." Brendan thought it was just praise from an elder. He was about to give a humble response when he got surprised by the rest of the statement. This made him freeze in place."The Parkers?" Deirdre was equally surprised."What's wrong?" Arthur beamed. "Don't you both already have children? Although you've divorced, your relationship is still strong. Don't tell me there's no thought of remarriage?""Remarriage? It's not the right time yet." Deirdre blushed from the teasing."It'll come eventually. If that's the case, then you are both part of the Parkers now. You're my only daughter, and he's my s
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1571 Revenge and Redemption
Beneath the envelope lay the evidence. Deirdre stared at it for a long time, with Brendan by her side, offering silent support.The next day, they boarded a plane back to Southedge. Within three days, news of the top political figure's downfall due to corruption spread like wildfire throughout Southedge, even captivating the interest of other cities.Upon learning the full story in his study, Arthur's aging face was stained with tears of regret. "If only I had known sooner... I wouldn't have let your mother leave like that."Deirdre lowered her gaze and handed the letter to Arthur. "My mother explains in the letter that her departure was a voluntary sacrifice to protect everyone. She never blamed you."Arthur gazed at the letter, struggling to find the right words.Deirdre left silently, shutting the door.-Ryker was also brought to the police station. Under Sterling's methods, he confessed to the murders. Emily faced the same outcome.All of them waited for their trials.-
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1570 The Evidence to Turn the Tables
The distance from Southedge to Village Alnwick was immense, yet Brendan displayed unwavering resolve."Then let's depart today," he said.As Deirdre bid farewell to Arthur, an unexpected glimmer of sadness flickered in his eyes. "Visiting your mother's grave, huh? Okay, go ahead. Take care of yourself, don't overexert.""Yes," Deirdre replied. Faced with Arthur's hesitant gaze, she felt compelled to add, "Dad, I'll be back."Arthur met Deirdre's gaze, hope rekindling in his eyes.Deirdre softly sighed. "You're my father, my family. Of course, I'll return." "Really? You mean it?" Arthur's excitement made his hands tremble slightly. He held onto Deirdre as if wanting to convey something, but all that emerged was a murmur, "Then please return early... Come back as soon as you can...""Sure. I have a friend coming over later today. Take care of him. Oh, and my boyfriend is here, too. Don't worry about the specifics. I'll explain everything upon my return."As she stepped out, Bren
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1569 Back to Village Alnwick
"Brendan Brighthall?" Ryker wiped away his own nosebleed. "How did you manage to come from Neve? Didn't I ask Emily to keep an eye on you? That useless fool who can't even accomplish simple tasks.""Choosing to control minds with drugs all along, you should have anticipated this outcome." Brendan acted roughly. As he got up, he took the key from Ryker and placed Ryker on a chair.Deirdre clenched Brendan's sleeve tightly. Sensing her tension, Brendan embraced her to calm her down."It's okay. I'm sorry for coming back so late, making you go through this.""It's not your fault. Your timely arrival saved me from further trouble. It's my own foolishness... I let him find something to use against me," Deirdre said, shaking her head weakly.Brendan frowned, cupping Deirdre's face. "He wasn't someone easily deceived, to begin with. You've done well. I'm the one who brought you into this danger, which is unforgivable."Brendan's dark eyes were filled with intense emotions. He had arrive
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1568 The Plan Was Exposed
Deirdre hugged Ryker, resting her head on his chest as he patted her back. "By the way, you're not curious about where I went after I left early this morning?"Deirdre realized the hidden meaning behind Ryker's words, retreated from Ryker's embrace little by little, and looked at him.Ryker's eyes, as enigmatic as ever, held a clarity that seemed to pierce through everything. "I went to the hospital."He didn't wait for Deirdre to respond. "Because I was curious why I was so sleepy last night for no reason. Any ordinary person might chalk it up to exhaustion. But I know my body too well. You drugged me."Deirdre felt a sudden chill running down her spine.Ryker took a step forward casually, but his eyes were full of killing intent. "I underestimated you, Deirdre. Your acting skills are far more impressive than I imagined. You nearly had me fooled. You deserve an Oscar. What a pity that you're now in my hands."Deirdre retreated abruptly, but she found a cold wall barring her esca
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1567 The Key
Deirdre was momentarily stunned as she watched Arthur search around the study. Eventually, he uncovered a rusty key from a drawer.Arthur raised the key. "Is this what your mother desired?"Deirdre's mind raced, thoughts swirling. "Is this from my mother?"A hint of disappointment shadowed Arthur's eyes as he nodded. "This is the only thing she left me before she departed. She didn't explain why. She just made me promise to keep this key and never search for her."Although I agreed, the thought of it weighed heavily on me. So, I hid the key in a corner of the drawer instead of treating it like any other possession. In hindsight, I shouldn't have made that promise. I shouldn't have let her go alone."Deirdre's voice wavered, confusion evident. But as realization dawned, her heart raced. "Can you give me the key?"Arthur earnestly nodded, his expression solemn. "This belongs to your mother. I'm willing to give it to you whenever you're ready. To be honest, I'm relieved to pass it o
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1566 Something From Mother
The butler nodded and guided Deirdre to the study's door. Gathering her emotions, she pushed it open.Arthur's attention was on some documents, but the door's creak made him look up. He met Deirdre's gaze, causing a subtle flicker of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes."Deirdre..." He set aside the file. "Did you just wake up? Hungry? I'll have the kitchen prepare something."Deirdre shook her head, closing the door gently."Not hungry. I came to talk.""Everything okay?" Concern colored Arthur's expression. Though he seemed worried she might leave, he tried to hide it. "Go ahead. I'm with you."Deirdre found his reaction slightly amusing. "I'm not leaving."A spark returned to Arthur's eyes. "Then what's up?"As Deirdre grew more serious, she said, "I came to Southedge not just for a visit. I want to know if my mother left something with you before she passed. Something significant.""Left something?" Arthur was puzzled. "She left several things. Which one do you mean?"De
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1565 He's His Child
Brendan's eyes held a hint of pity as he spoke hesitantly. "Your mother took that item away."He gently touched Deirdre's face. "That man kidnapped your mother years ago. I don't know what happened during that time. Maybe he hurt your mother and wanted to keep her forcibly. Eventually, your mother found a chance to escape back to your father with the man's item."She left suddenly while pregnant with you, not out of hatred for your father, but to protect you. Now, that person is unsure if your mother or Arthur has the item. Thus, he aimed to kidnap both you and your father, taking his time to retrieve them."Deirdre's mind was overwhelmed, flooded with information that threatened to drown her. This unexpected revelation left her in disbelief.'My mother left my father because of me? And the mastermind behind Ryker is responsible for my mother's kidnapping?'"So that item holds significant importance for this person, enough to bring him down, right?" Deirdre forced herself to calm
