Deirdre had once thought about it, even cursed Brendan to disappear from this world. But now that they had reunited, that curse had instantly turned into pain and torture.Wiping the sweat off her face, Deirdre stood up and put on a jacket. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Brendan speaking to Sam downstairs.She went down the stairs, and Brendan saw her, reaching out to hold her before she reached the last step.Deirdre touched his suit and hesitated. "Why are you dressed so neatly today? Where are you going?"Sam couldn't help but say, "Ms. McKinnon, please persuade Mr. Brighthall not to go to work today. He insists on going to work today and plans to continue doing so in the future." "Sam," Brendan warned him in a low voice.Deirdre frowned, staring at him with feigned anger. "What? You didn't tell me yourself and got mad when Sam did?""It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that this guy told you before I did," Brendan explained in a gentle voice.His e

Sam suddenly spun the steering wheel, narrowly avoiding hitting the guardrail in a state of shock. "Mr. Brighthall..."Sam sounded hoarse. Brendan's words sounded calm as if he had already made up his mind to face death."Don't worry too much. Dr. Fuller will definitely develop a cure to counteract the side effects before they take effect on you," Sam reassured him."I know," replied Brendan, his face steady and his black eyes without any ripples."But there is always a second possibility in the world. Before that second possibility arrives, I want to ensure that the Brighthall Group grows into a towering tree to provide support for Deirdre… and our child."-In the villa...After Deirdre finished her breakfast with an uneasy heart, she called the family mansion. The housekeeper answered the phone and became immediately respectful when she realized it was Deirdre. "Madam, you are coming to visit Madame Brighthall? Sure, madam. It's definitely convenient for you to pay a visit.

To avoid making Ophelia uncomfortable, the maids had left and only put the supplements in the kitchen.Deirdre nodded and walked toward the kitchen in her flat shoes. As Deirdre entered the kitchen, Ophelia picked up her teacup and took a sip.From her posture, Madame Brighthall didn't feel that Ophelia was just a rural village woman who had been living there for a long time."Madame Brighthall, do you really think I look familiar? Which one of your friends looks like me? I'm quite curious."Madame Brighthall snapped out of her thoughts, her expression shifting. She rested her forehead on her hand and forced herself to calm down before sighing. "It's not any particular friend, and having met so many people, I can't really remember the details. So, when I saw you just now, I felt that you are somewhat familiar.""Is it just somewhat familiar or… the same look?"Madame Brighthall was stunned. Ophelia moved closer and whispered something into her ear.Meanwhile, Deirdre was rumma

Brendan held her in his arms and nodded to Ophelia. They both waited anxiously for the doctor to come out and only after he declared that everything was fine did they both breathe a sigh of relief."I told you, there's nothing to worry about," Brendan said as he held Deirdre's cold hands.Deirdre realized this later and hugged Brendan tightly for a long time. She blushed slightly as if she were starting to rely more and more on Brendan, which might not necessarily be a good thing.Madame Brighthall was then transferred to a regular ward, and during this time, Brendan's phone in his pocket kept ringing.Deirdre couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to answer it? Is it a work matter?" Brendan glanced at the caller ID. He had just been discussing a business deal with someone and had left the meeting abruptly. Naturally, his phone would be bombarded with calls."It's work-related, but it's not important." Brendan wrapped Deirdre's cold hand in his palm and exhaled a warm breath w

Ophelia's voice trembled with fear as she recounted the events, saying, "I had a brief conversation with Madame Brighthall, but it didn't last long. While we were speaking, she suddenly clutched her chest and collapsed without warning. The maid witnessed it and rushed over, and you can guess what happened next..."Deirdre nodded as if she was deep in thought, finding it strange.Ophelia sat there for a while and got up, claiming to get water. Deirdre saw a nurse coming out of the room, so she got up and asked, "Hello, nurse. I am the patient's… family. May I inquire what is the cause of the patient's heart condition?"She was still fine at the beginning of the conversation, so how did it suddenly turn into this?"The nurse furrowed her eyebrows tightly at the same time she was closing the door. "Are you sure that she was still fine during the conversation?"Deirdre was confused. "I…""It's apparent that the patient has been triggered by some sort of stimulation that resulted in t

Deirdre's mind went blank instantly. 'Abort… the child?'Madame Brighthall had looked forward to the arrival of the child so eagerly in the past. She told Deirdre that she would love the child regardless of its gender.Yet, she had actually told Deirdre to abort the child so mercilessly when the child was already five months along.Deirdre felt that she must have misheard it."Aunt… You must be exhausted. You will need to rest more. I'll come and visit you later…"She turned around staggeringly, yet she did not expect Madame Brighthall to get out of bed despite her health condition and tightly clutch her wrist. Tears streamed down Madame Brighthall's face while she said, "No! You must promise me to leave Brendan. Otherwise, I won't let you go!"Madame Brighthall was weak from her chronic condition, but her grip was so tight that it hurt Deirdre."Aunt… let go of me!"In the process of tussling, Brendan had already ended his call and showed up at the door. He went from feeling

Deirdre was astounded. She could not see Brendan's face clearly but could feel his determination at this very moment. "You…" Madame Brighthall pushed her palm tightly against her chest in anger. "So, you're saying that you won't split up with her? Are you really trying to cut ties with your mother because of a woman like her?"Brendan furrowed his eyebrows tightly. Meanwhile, Deirdre realized that she could not allow Brendan to keep going like this. Madame Brighthall's body would not be able to endure this, and their relationship would not survive a confrontation like this either."Madame Brighthall." Deirdre changed the way she addressed her. "I don't know why, but you loathe me. If that is the case, I won't be in your presence and make you be fed up with me anymore. I'll leave, but…"She paused for a moment. "I will never abort the child. She is my blood and flesh and doesn't just belong to Brendan alone."She turned around and left, leaving Brendan and Madame Brighthall in t

Deirdre nodded obediently and got into Brendan's car with Ophelia. Upon arriving at the villa, Ophelia returned to her room, leaving them in the living room. Brendan wrapped his arms around Deirdre and rested his head on her shoulder as he breathed deeply. "I'm sorry."He was the lover, the son, and the most suitable mediator, yet he had messed up even the simplest task of mediating the relationship between Deirdre and his mother. "I don't know what has gotten into my mother. She used to love you more than she loves me."Deirdre wrapped her arms around his neck, feeling his steady breath against her shoulder. Her gaze shifted from being distracted to focused, filled with care and concern. She gently caressed the man's back, offering him comfort in her touch."You don't have to apologize, and it's not your fault that Madame Brighthall isn't fond of me. At most…" Deirdre lowered her eyes. "At most, it is due to me being bad at something, and that caused her hatred.""You're gre

"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

"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.-

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

"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

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

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
