Chapter 51 She Was Jailed on Your Behalf

Regardless of how painful the kick was, Steven remained silent and kneeled on the ground. Brendan showed him the medical report on his phone with an intimidating, apathetic expression. “Look at this. Explain yourself.”This was expected, so Steven had long prepared an explanation. He stooped low as he said, “I’m sorry, sir. I wanted to tell you at the time, but I know you very well. If you had found out that Ms. McKinnon lost her sight in jail, you would have definitely done whatever you could to take her out of jail. However, because we were under the watchful eye of the public, your actions would have certainly led to an unintended negative impact on the Brighthall Group. Therefore, I couldn’t say it. I took the liberty not to tell you immediately. I am sorry!”“You took a liberty indeed.” Brendan laughed instead when he got to the point of extreme anger. He looked down at Steven with his ice-cold gaze. “It seems that I’ve been too kind to you, so much so that you can’t tell who’s

Chapter 52 A Slim Chance of Survival

Brendan was willing to be a pillar for Deirdre to rely on. He wished for Deirdre to live a worry-free life until her last breath. But it seemed that Brendan’s wish would never be realized, as Deirdre was about to disappear from the world. It made him feel so much pain that he couldn’t breathe.The doctor could understand Brendan’s feelings as he said, “We’re helpless too. Her lungs are punctured, and the injury she’s suffered is truly severe. What’s more, the patient doesn’t have any desire to live. Unless…”Brendan’s eyes lit up when he heard that there was a slim chance to save Deirdre. “Unless what?”“Unless renowned academic doctor Dr. Killton is willing to step out. Unfortunately, he’s not in Neve currently, and even if he was, he has already stopped performing surgery.”It wasn’t a helpful answer. Brendan tightened his fists and asked coldly, “What about Dr. Killton’s last student?”“His last student?” The doctor was startled but quickly recollected himself and replied, “I

Chapter 53 Are You Comparing Charlene to Yourself?

“Don’t be crazy. Her body is so weak now that I can only set my mind at ease by taking her with me!” Sterling spoke through clenched teeth and took a glance at Charlene. “You have a real fiancee, Charlene, anyhow, right? You should have had your fill now that you’ve ruined her in so many ways!”Brendan’s gaze turned ice-cold abruptly when he heard that remark. “Who are you taking with you? Deirdre is mine. She’s mine for life, and she will be buried in my family’s burial site when she dies. Sterling, don’t even think about showing off just because you saved her!”Upon saying that, Brendan cast a look at his bodyguard before he turned around to head to the intensive care unit, where Deirdre was kept. “Brend…” Charlene turned her wheelchair behind him. She had heard every part of the conversation. Her face was slightly pale, and she said in a piteous tone, “Since Ms. McKinnon’s condition has already been stabilized, will you take me home? The people who brought me here have already l

Chapter 54 They’re Kissing

Deirdre stopped speaking and shut her eyes. Realizing that he was being too harsh, Brendan explained by saying, “There’s no point in comparing yourself to her.”Deirdre remained as quiet as before. Brendan stared at her dry, cracked lips and got up to fetch her a glass of water. “Don’t go to sleep yet. Drink the water before you rest.”Deirdre turned her face to the side. “I want to rest.”“Rest after drinking the water.” Brendan pushed the glass of water toward her by force. Deirdre refused to drink, and while she was struggling, the glass was knocked over and dropped to the ground, producing a loud noise. Brendan was completely infuriated. “Deirdre, why are you doing this? I ignored your suicide attempt without making any comments. In the past, I would have never let you off! You’re still ungrateful, even after all that. Are you only going to behave yourself when I force the drink down your throat!”The collar of her top was wet, and Deirdre’s lips were trembling. She was in

Chapter 55 Charlene Was in the Office

Brendan clenched his fists tightly and ran over to grab Sterling before punching his face ferociously. He was in an uncontrollable rage. “Sterling, are you trying to get yourself f*cking killed?! Did you think that you had a free pass for life just because I said that I’d let you off? Who let you in!”Sterling’s face stung from the punch yet he did not care about anything else. He shoved away Brendan abruptly and said, “Stop getting in the way!”It was an emergency, so he couldn't care less about quarreling with Brendan, yet Brendan was especially furious. “Stop getting in the way? Who are you asking to make way, huh? Who do you think you are? You would have already died a hundred times had Deirdre not threatened me with her life! Who do you think you are to throw a tantrum in my presence!”As he was speaking, the jacket of his suit was tugged by the woman on the bed. Brendan became even more infuriated. “Deirdre, are you trying to get yourself killed as well? Did I save you just so

Chapter 56 All Because of Her

He stood at the door as he watched Deirdre gulp down half a glass of water slowly, his expression icy. Sterling wiped away her sweat for her, and the sight of them moving in such harmony made Brendan clench his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He was agitated by how natural the ambiance between Deirdre and Sterling felt. It made him feel as if he was the outsider who had ruined their harmonious relationship!“How’s your throat?”Deirdre finished her drink while Sterling took the empty glass. Concerned, he asked, “Do you feel better? Has the pain eased up?”Deirdre licked her lips. Her throat had been burning earlier, yet the pain was relieved substantially after she drank half a glass of cold water. She nodded soon. “Much better.”She lowered her gaze and discovered that her voice was still hoarse. Every word she said was painful, yet she still made the effort to say, “Sterling, about your information being exposed online…”“You’re talking about that, huh? There

Chapter 57 What Makes You Think That It’s Charlene?

“You’ll have time.” Deirdre nodded. “However, I don’t have time to spend on you anymore.”She clenched her fists tightly. She felt her heart bleed with every word she said, yet there was nothing she could do. She had to sever her ties with Sterling completely in front of Brendan. Otherwise, this matter would never come to an end. “Plus, Brendan treats me well. I believe that this incident was just an accident and it won’t happen again in the future. I will be with him until he’s bored of me. You should leave.”“Dee! Why are you saying this against your will!”Brendan was very displeased. He grabbed Sterling by the collar. “What do you mean by 'against your will’?”He declared in a slightly arrogant tone, “Deirdre has loved me to the core from the start. She would walk in the rain for 20 kilometers just to see me in the past. You’re only the man that she latched on to when she couldn’t see. Don’t think too highly of yourself!”Upon saying that, he summoned Sam. “Please escort M

Chapter 58 The Truth

Deirdre said in a shaky voice, “Does anybody else loathe me as much as she does?”As soon as she made the remark, Brendan felt incredulous. “Deirdre, I think you might be experiencing the delusion of persecution! She’s a very kind person, so how could she possibly loathe you! Besides, she has never badmouthed you to me. Do you think she has a reason to put you in harm’s way?”‘A reason? Aren’t there always ample reasons for her to do so? It’s because I’m the one who saved Brendan. Because Charlene wants to shut me up for eternity to secure her place in Brendan’s heart!’Deirdre wanted to say this out loud yet she suppressed the urge to speak out. She thought about how foolish it was of her to have the audacity to suspect Charlene when Brendan’s love overpowered anything else. ‘Have I turned into a retard because my suicide attempt resulted in a brain injury?’She did not speak anymore, but she clenched her exposed fingers into tight fists. Brendan could not help furrowing his

Chapter 59 Are You Suspecting Me, Brendan?

“How did that happen?” Charlene kept her eyes lowered, a tinge of anger flashing past them. ‘That damned Sterling actually ruined my plan.’ Brendan stared closely at Charlene’s face and said, “The most crucial part is that I assigned Sam to take care of Deirdre initially, yet he was suddenly distracted by someone. On the other hand, the distraction method involved a text message sent to Sam via my phone. My phone was in the office at the time, and you are the only person who was here.”“Brendan, you… What are you trying to imply?” Charlene’s face turned ghastly pale instantly. “Are you implying that I put Ms. McKinnon in harm’s way?”Brendan’s fists tightened, but there was no excessive change in his expression. He continued staring at Charlene closely. “I only need to give an answer to Deirdre. She lost her sight in jail, so there would be nothing left of her if she were to lose her voice too.”“So you’re suspecting that I did it?” Charlene’s eyes reddened with tears. “Yes, I did

Chapter 60 We Have Yet to Get a Divorce

Loathing his disgraceful behavior, he said, “The reason why I prioritize this matter is because I don’t want to owe Deirdre anything. She was forced by me to become the scapegoat and lost her sight in jail. If she were to be rendered mute, I would feel guilty for the rest of my life.”“Really?” Charlene stopped crying in the meantime. “When are you going to marry me then? I understand that you couldn’t throw a grand wedding because of the motor vehicle accident before, but it has already been two years. Most people have already forgotten about the accident, so now is the best time for us to get married.”‘Marry you?’Brendan’s mind went blank, as he had never thought about this. “You’ll have to wait a little longer.”“Wait?” Charlene’s face turned ghastly pale, her hand clutching the wheelchair’s arm. “Why should I wait? Bren, have you fallen in love with Deirdre?”“No!” Brendan immediately denied it. It sounded like a joke to him. “Deirdre and I have yet to get a divorce.”“Wh
