Semua Bab Resent, Reject, Regret: Bab 1101 - Bab 1110

Brendan no longer trusted Deirdre, and she didn't expect him to make Emily completely disappear. As long as Deirdre could contact Shea, she might have a chance to find Mrs. Engel by following the clues and turning the tables around."Oh, by the way, do you know that Shea survived and is out of Brendan's organization?" Emily suddenly spoke in a relaxed tone.Deirdre was tensed by Emily's words, wondering how she knew about it. After all, no one should be aware except the organization's members like Sam!Deirdre turned in Emily's direction, who was smiling with raised lips. "She is really lucky. I thought she would lose her life in the basement. Yet, she managed to come out of it alive and without many wounds…" Emily continued leisurely."How do you know!" Deirdre's pupils contracted. She sat up straight and felt her chest as if it was going to explode. "How do you know that she doesn't have many wounds?"Emily smiled but gave no answer. Just then, Deirdre's phone in her hand rang

"Ah, I see…" Deirdre couldn't help but exclaim, "What a small world.""It's not that the world is small," Sterling said gently and seriously. "I started planning to come back to you a long time ago. This is just an opportunity, and I took on this treatment because of you. Deirdre, don't you see? Why do you think I studied ophthalmology?"Deirdre was stunned, and her thoughts became blurred."Is it because… of my eyes?"Sterling smiled gently with affection. "I was always at a loss when it came to your eyes, and I even became frustrated at times. So when I went abroad, I didn't hesitate to dive into ophthalmology. I want to heal your eyes myself."Deirdre's lips trembled, and she couldn't deny that she was moved.She had been under the impression that Sterling would be somewhat disappointed in her, but she didn't expect him not to resent her but even specialize in ophthalmology just to treat her."Sterry… I don't deserve it.""Whether you deserve it or not is up to me to decide.

Deirdre's calm expression was terrifying as soon as those words were uttered.Sterling pulled his business card out of his pocket, handed it to Brendan, and said, "I'm the world-renowned ophthalmologist recommended by Emily Collins."Brendan was shocked beyond words. That doctor turned out to be Sterling Fuller!?That meant Deirdre hadn't conspired with Sterling to meet him. He was the one who had forced Deirdre to come here, and they just happened to meet again.The disappointment was evident in Deirdre's eyes when she said, "Do you understand now? Brendan, this was your choice. You forced me to come here to consult an ophthalmologist, but I had no idea that Sterry was the ophthalmologist at all. Yet, you came over and righteously labeled me as someone disloyal.""I…" Brendan was at a loss for words. He had never expected that the ophthalmologist was Sterling.But the thought of Sterling treating Deirdre, which would often put the two in close proximity, was like a needle in his

"If I had known that I would miss out on a relationship because of my youthful arrogance, I would have come back earlier."Sterling blinked, his tone light and easy, and Deirdre relaxed, knowing that Sterling was just joking."Of course, you should have been impulsive when you were young. Without your courage back then, how would you be where you are today? If I ran into you on the street now, I might not even recognize you," Ophelia complimented.As the three of them talked, Ophelia suddenly realized something. "It's too cold outside. Sterry, why don't you come inside and have a seat? You haven't eaten my cooking in a long time, have you?"Sterling waved his hands as he refused. "I really do miss it, but I'm just too busy today. I just got off the plane and have to tidy up my new place. How about another day? Since I'm Deirdre's attending ophthalmologist, I'll be coming here often, and we'll have enough time.""Mom, let Sterry arrange his schedule first. He is busy as a doctor, a

"I'm okay."The moment Brendan took the medicine, he felt relief in his chest.Perhaps it was really his physical problem. The cold had caused migraines, and the lack of sleep had led to emotional outbursts.Thinking of the thought that had sprung up in his mind just now, Brendan looked at his fingers with lingering fear."The medicine… Let's change it to twice per day," Brendan requested with a frown."Twice per day? Are you sure? Medicine is poisonous to a certain extent, let alone traditional herbal medicine. What if the dosage is too high…" Ophelia was not surprised at the request."It's alright. It's effective for me. I just can't get rid of it completely. Drinking it a few more times a day should be fine," Brendan reassured Ophelia as he lowered his eyes."Alright, I will bring the medicine to you every morning and evening," Ophelia promised, with her gaze becoming complicated."Okay, thank you."Brendan returned the empty bowl to Ophelia and went into the study to calm
