Emily's heart was racing. How would she procure the evidence of the hotel when her friend was just a made-up excuse?Her palms were sweaty, and she felt suffocated."What are you doing there? Do you need me to get someone to help you?"Brendan had run out of patience, and Emily was so startled that she dropped her phone on the floor. She hastily bent over to pick up the phone and came up with an idea at the last moment."Alright, I shall contact the friend and get him to show the evidence."She made the call in Brendan's presence, but Brendan did not understand the language very well."What kind of language is that?"Emily smiled. "It's my friend's local accent."Brendan massaged his temples, bored to death by her words."Do it quickly. My patience is running low.""Sure." Emily nodded and brought up a video clip that she showed to Brendan."However, in order to prevent you from accusing my friend of fraudulence, he recorded the whole process of him going through the luggage

Emily had never been mocked in this manner before. Her face turned ghastly pale at once, yet she swallowed her grievance at the thought of the man's long-term plan."I didn't expect that Deirdre would actually tell Brendan about this incident either… Moreover, Brendan believed her. I believe that she must have gained his trust by faking her pain!""I don't care if he fell for the trick or what, but it's true that you almost failed the plan. Moreover, you're such an idiot. Haven't you realized that Sterling's presence hasn't affected Brendan yet?"Emily came to realize that and bit her lower lip tightly. "Yes, Brendan was supposed to be going frantic from jealousy from the start.""How is Brendan going to lose control of himself if you still don't stir up trouble? I'm going to give you one last chance to ruin the relationship between Brendan and Deirdre. Or else, you'll be of no use to me."The call was hung up. The man's attitude was worlds apart compared to when he proposed to wo

Deirdre was astounded by the feeling of falling, and she wrapped her arms around the man's neck subconsciously while he hugged her tightly.Brendan's breath sprayed on Deirdre's face, and he lowered his head to ask with a hoarse voice, "Smell it again to see if there is a woman's smell on me."Not only was there no woman's smell, but he did not even reek of cigarettes, but there was only a faint, musky scent that smelled like sandalwood, or it could be his own masculine scent. Deirdre could not help being stunned for a moment. She bit her lower lip and struggled when she came to realize the situation. "Brendan, put me down.""I won't." Brendan hugged her even tighter as if he wished that he could fuse his body with Deirdre. He sniffed the scent of her body greedily and felt the warmth that he yearned for."You're just going to pull a long face at me if I put you down.""Shouldn't I do that?" Deirdre turned her head to the side.Brendan smiled and said, "You should.""It was my

"I don't have the evidence, but I have you, Brendan! I can attest to everything I said. Look into Emily if you're willing to trust me, and you'll most certainly be able to find Shea!"She finished her sentence agitatedly and left behind a death-like stillness in the ambiance.Deirdre felt her left eyelid twitching frantically, and the silent ambiance was suffocating. Soon afterward, she heard Brendan say, "Rest well."At that moment, she was so agitated that her body was shaking. She felt as if her spirit was dampened."Brendan, just consider it as me begging you, alright? Shea's situation can't be delayed for a day longer. If only you investigate Emily closely, you'll most certainly be able to find something!"Brendan appeared to have mixed feelings. "Deirdre, I understand that Shea's situation is also very dangerous. Hence, I will do my best to get someone to save her, but you're only going to distract the rescue personnel if you behave like this."There's no reason for Emily t

Deirdre hoped that Sterling would give her the answer she wanted without hesitation, but all Sterling gave her was silence all along.After a long time, Sterling said, "Please stay calm. Go back to the sofa and sit down first."Deirdre's pupils were shaking. "How can I sit down? Shea is supposed to be alive!"Sterling's eyes were misted over with dimness, but he still tried his best to comfort her by saying, "Deirdre, this matter is no one's fault, especially not yours."It's apparent that those people want to take Shea's life, and no one could stop that."Deirdre's entire body was shaking, and she dropped to her knees. She could not see Shea's face clearly, yet she knew that Shea was still young, kind-hearted, and smart.It was her fault for getting Shea involved in the strife—she lost her life."Why am I still alive when I'm supposed to be the dead one!?" Deirdre was in agony. "If they want to take a person's life, they can just take mine! How will killing Shea do any good f
