Chapter 439 Will You See Him Once Before the Surgery?
How Madame Brighthall was pleased and devoted to Deirdre’s previous identity felt so cynical to Deirdre.
Deirdre said, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else, Madame Brighthall. I’m Deirdre McKinnon and not Charlene
McKinney.”
“I know.” Madame Brighthall’s gaze dimmed for a moment when her hands were flung away.
She then said hastily, “Brendan has already come clean to me. It was you who took care of me over the years,
right? The daughter-in-law that I’m perfectly content with has always been you too. I’m sorry, Miss McKinnon. I… I
was so reckless that I actually kicked you out and hurt you…”
‘Come clean?”

Brighthall. You didn’t do anything wrong from the start. On the contrary, I should thank you. I wouldn’t be able to
leave Brendan had you not helped me. It’s a happy ending for the both of us now.”
“Is it really a happy ending?” Madame Brighthall smiled bitterly. “The biggest mistake I made in my life is letting you
leave. I’ve not only put you in harm’s way but also Brendan. Do you know that Brendan has been behaving like a
lost soul since you left? He went looking for you frantically, and he=”
“Madame Brighthall.” Deirdre interrupted Madame Brighthall, inhaled a deep breath, and said, “I have a boyfriend.”
A look of astonishment flashed past her eyes. “Is… Is he good to you?”
“Very good.” Deirdre lowered her eyes. Her gaze turned gentle at the very moment she thought about Kyran. “I’m
already prepared to be with him, and that is why I don’t want to know anything about Brendan.”
“This is the best outcome for both of us. Otherwise, are you going to get rid of Miss McKinney, whom Brendan truly
loves, because of the guilt you feel for me?”
Madame Brighthall was quiet. She was doubtful whether Charlene was the person that Brendan loved.
Yet, Deirdre had already declared she had a boyfriend. Regardless, she would never allow herself to break. up
someone else’s relationship.
“I understand.” Madame Brighthall appeared to be exhausted. If Deirdre could see, she would certainly be
astounded by how much her hair had turned gray during this period. “However, I have a favor to ask from you. Will
you do it for me, please, Miss McKinnon?”
Madame Brighthall said with great difficulty, “Brendan’s body is ruined.”
Deirdre was stunned.
“When you were involved in the accident, he went to the bridge and stood in the cold for a night despite the
abdominal injury. Then, he devoted himself to work without concern for his health until he wore himself down.

“The doctor said that he needed the surgery for sure, but the surgery…is very risky. Do you understand what I’m
implying, Miss McKinnon?”
‘If the risk of the surgery is very high, it signifies there is a possibility for it to fail at any moment.”
On the other hand, it went without saying what the significance of a failed surgery was.
Deirdre’s mind went blank all of a sudden. She did not expect that this would be the outcome.
Deirdre recovered from her surprise. Her expression was calm, and she did not even furrow her eyebrows.
“Why are you telling me this, Madame Brighthall?”
Madame Brighthall felt rather dejected, not because of Deirdre’s coldness. Deirdre deserved to behave. this way
after how Brendan treated her. Madame Brighthall felt dejected because of how determined Deirdre was. It
seemed that Brendan would never be able to captivate Deirdre’s heart anymore, judging by Deirdre’s behavior.
“I shall not beat around the bushes anymore, then.” Madame Brighthall’s expression was tainted with faint sorrow.
“Miss McKinnon, will you see Brendan once before the surgery?”
