"I'm not putting you under house arrest." Brendan lowered his eyes, and when he looked at Deirdre, he had a look of affection and pity. "I just want to protect the woman I love. Mother, didn't you say that you don't want me to be a person who abandons his wife and children like my father? I will naturally obey your words and never allow Deirdre to suffer."

"Are you crazy?" Madame Brighthall's voice trembled. "You're doing this just for such a woman?"

She pointed at Deirdre and said, "Do you know that she is about to destroy you and the Brighthall family? She'll take away everything that we have!"

However, Brendan's face remained calm. "It's not 'about to'. All she needs is to say the word, and she'll be able to destroy the Brighthall family and take away everything that we have now."

Madame Brighthall was stunned. "What do you mean?"

Brendan raised his eyes with a calm face. "I signed the stock transfer agreement with Deirdre today, and now the largest shareholder of the Brighthal

    "I'm glad you called me that. It sounds nice." Hearing this, Deirdre was embarrassed.Dr. Killton was dumbfounded. He found it unbelievable that this man in front of him, without a fierce and oppressive look in his eyes, was Brendan! He was repeatedly impressed by himself in his heart for making the right choice. If he had really listened to Madame Brighthall's words, he would have been burned to ashes by now."I'm going out for a while. I'll be back soon." Brendan kissed her forehead. "Don't worry. No matter what it is, I will be by your side."Deirdre's eyelashes trembled, and Brendan's words instantly calmed the uneasiness in her heart. Yeah, what was she worried about? No matter what, Brendan would stand by her side."Well, then I'll go back and change, then take a rest. I hope... You'll come back soon."Hearing this, Brendan stroked her hair and then glanced at everyone in the living room. Flustered, Dr. Killton immediately ran away before anyone else did. Brendan straightene

    "But after Ophelia saw me, she first said she wanted to take revenge for what happened in the past! She told me that Deirdre is her spy, and unless I try my best to prevent you from being together… She will tell Deirdre the truth and ask Deirdre to avenge the McKinnons!"There is too much enmity hidden between you, so how can you be together? In Deirdre's eyes, do you think you are more important, or taking revenge for Ophelia is more important!?"Brendan was dumbfounded. He was soaked in the hues of twilight, and his black eyes sparkled, but chaos and fear were brewing deep in those dark eyes."My father… He is Deirdre's father... murderer?" Brendan staggered and held onto the pillar, and he was so shocked that he couldn't think clearly at all."How could this be?" Brendan's eyes were filled with tears, and his body was tense. "This is impossible..."Madame Brighthall didn't want to cruelly tell Brendan the truth, but she couldn't hide it from him forever. "It will be too late if

    Brendan was in a complicated mood. His eyes were filled with emotion as he raised his hand to caress Deirdre's face."You didn't do anything wrong. It was me. How I wish I could protect you."When Deirdre heard Brendan's guilty words, she gently grasped Brendan's fingertips, turned her head, and closed his eyes. "No one expected today's incident. I know that as the middleman, you are the one who is suffering the most. Neither of us should complain about each other or blame ourselves. As long as we promise not to let go of each other's hand no matter what, that'll be enough for me, okay?"Brendan looked at Deirdre's expression dotingly, wishing that everything that had happened today was just a dream. In that way, there wouldn't be any enmity between Deirdre and him!"Bren?" Brendan came back to his senses, and Deirdre frowned slightly. "Why are you spacing out? Did Madame Brighthall tell you something I don't know just now?""No," Brendan denied it immediately. He only hoped that

    Deirdre's heart thumped slightly. "They left this afternoon? Are you sure?"Sam said, "Of course, I'm sure. I personally sent the partner to their car. Because Mr. Brighthall didn't show up, they were very upset. I apologized repeatedly for this."Halfway through this sentence, it suddenly dawned on Sam. "Why? Did Mr. Brighthall not return yesterday?"Deirdre frowned nervously. "He didn't come back last night, and I couldn't get through to his phone. I'm a little worried. Please, help me find out where he went at night.""Okay, Ms. McKinnon, don't worry. I'll check right away."After the call ended, Deirdre felt flustered. Did Brendan lie to her yesterday? He neither went to the company nor came back. Where did that man go? Thinking of Emily, she felt uneasy for no reason.Ophelia came over to comfort her, saying, "Don't be anxious. Brendan is already an adult. He can't disappear. Maybe he went back to the previous hotel to rest.""That's right..." Deirdre had no choice but to t

    After arriving at the family mansion, they saw a maid who had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw that Deirdre arrived, she motioned for them to be quiet."Ms. McKinnon, our mistress doesn't want to see you today and has notified all the maids, so we have to be careful. Sneak into our mistress' room and persuade her to send Mr. Brighthall to the hospital."The maid's voice sounded unfamiliar. Maybe it was a maid who worked in the backyard.Deirdre expressed her thanks in a low voice and couldn't help but say, "Can I go and see Bren first?"She was sweating profusely and said hoarsely, "I want to see what's going on with him. If it's too serious, I want to call an ambulance first."The maid stopped her. "Ms. McKinnon, I understand your concerns for Mr. Brighthall. You care about his injuries, but without the consent of our mistress, it'll be useless. Not to mention that maids are guarding Mr. Brighthall's room. The only thing I can help you with is to sneak you into ou

    Was this why Dr. Ernie had not taught students for a long time? He was a well-known medical professor, and his research was highly accomplished internationally!"Since he is your apprentice, why did he go astray and get kicked out of the institute?"Feeling weak, Dr. Ernie held onto the wall. "That's because he is not interested in saving people but has ambitions to destroy people. He is a rare genius in medicine. When I first met him, he was modest, studious, and good at disguising himself."I didn't expect him to start researching drugs that are harmful to the human body behind my back to mentally devastate others. His first test subject was the first apprentice I accepted… That is, his senior."Sterling was in disbelief. No wonder he had heard people say that Dr. Ernie had once taken in two apprentices—one of them had been kicked out of the institute, and the other seemed to have disappeared."That person… How did he turn out?"Dr. Ernie's heart ached.

    Little did Sterling expect that the phone had constantly been showing an unreachable status as if someone had tampered with it and blocked his calls. He gnashed his teeth and relied on his memory to dial Sam's number.When the call connected, he spoke urgently. "I'm Sterling Fuller! Emily Collins is dangerous. Tell Brendan to stay away from her! Don't go see her alone!""Dududu—" The call was abruptly cut off, and Sam only caught the second half of his message.'Emily Collins is dangerous? Must not meet her alone?'Sam pursed his lips. He had no idea where Brendan had gone.-Brendan woke up from a loud door-knocking noise. He held on his forehead as intense pain and emptiness alternated, his face as white as paper.This was the first time he had such a severe side effect from drinking alcohol.The door-knocking sound had yet to cease. Brendan scanned the room and realized that he was in a room on top of the bar.He got out of bed and opened the door, and a waiter handed him

    Deirdre first saw the clothes, then the limbs in her line of sight. The fair limbs were wrapped partially with the emerald green shawl that Madame Brighthall often wore.For a moment, Deirdre's mind went blank, and then she trembled as she reached out her hand.As she touched Madame Brighthall's face, a sticky sensation made her recoil in fear. Her fingertips were stained with blood, and Deirdre was dumbfounded."Madame Brighthall?" She quickly got up, but the door was suddenly pushed open before she could call for help.Ophelia appeared at the door and was shocked when she saw Deirdre and Madame Brighthall, who was lying in a pool of blood. "Deirdre? How dare you hurt Madame Brighthall!?"'Hurt?' Deirdre's face turned pale, and she immediately shook her head to explain, "No! Mom, I didn't lay a hand on Madame Brighthall. I had no idea she was—"A group of servants rushed in, one of whom had been with Madame Brighthall for a long time. Her eyes turned red when she saw the scene,

    "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.

    "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

    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

    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

    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?"
