Chapter 556 From Now On, I’m Your Husband
“What?”
“I’m asking you if your condition involves only a date, right?”
Brendan could not refrain from chuckling as if he was making fun of her sensitive emotion. “Or else?”
“At night… I’m not going to sleep with you.”
The other end of the call was quiet momentarily as soon as she made the remark. Soon afterward, he laughed
sarcastically and said, “Are you doing this so you can keep your chastity for the man?”
Deirdre shut her eyes tightly. She did not want to quarrel with Brendan on this issue.
“I just don’t want to be touched by someone like you.”
Brendan was stunned for a moment before he sneered and said, “Someone like me? What kind of person am 1?”
Deirdre did not answer, and he did not inquire further. He said, “Don’t worry about this, Miss McKinnon. I’ve
encountered way too many women who are prettier than you with better bodies. I’m not interested. when they

He said it in contempt, yet his remark calmed Deirdre.
“When are we going on a date?”
Brendan said, “Your call came too suddenly I’m still in Neve now. Let’s do it tomorrow. I’ll pick you up.”
“Hmm.”
Deirdre ended the call eagerly. She only regained her calmness when she could no longer hear Brendan.
She would go on a date with Brendan to get the divorce, yet she would not do anything more that betrayed Kyran.
Everything would be settled when their date ended, and they would not be connected
anymore.
The next afternoon, Brendan showed up at the mansion’s door just as he had promised.
Deirdre was halfway through cutting vegetables when she received the call. She wiped her hands on the apron and
headed upstairs to change into a warmer outfit.
The air was slightly humid when she opened the door to go outside. She walked further ahead and smelled the
man’s perfume scent from the blowing wind.
She asked with a cold expression and her palm covering her cheek, “Where are we going?”
“I don’t know how others go on a date, but since it’s already dusk now, we’ll just grab some food at the Waterfront
Mall.” Brendan grabbed her wrist and said, “I’ll lead you to the car.”
He wanted to lead her to the passenger seat, but Deirdre struggled free from his grip instinctively. By the time he
came to realize the situation, he looked at her coldly.
Deirdre said with her face pale. “I can walk by myself. I don’t need you to guide me.”
“You can’t even stand me holding you?” he said in a displeased tone.
Deirdre said, “It’s not that I can’t stand it. It would be better for us to keep a distance in view of our relationship.”
Brendan burst out in laughter, but his laughter did not sound sincere. “Our relationship? What’s our
relationship, huh? Are we not legally married husband and wife? Deirdre, don’t forget that you married me willingly
four years ago. In fact, you did it without naming any terms and conditions. Yet, you are in such a rush to
disassociate with me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You mentioned that it was in the past too.” Not a change could be seen in Deirdre’s gaze. “I was blinded in the
past.”
Brendan’s expression turned icy instantly.
Deirdre stopped speaking. She was planning on feeling her way to the passenger seat. As soon as her hand touched
the ice-cold car window, Brendan suddenly stretched out his hand and took it upon himself to interlace his fingers
with hers.
Their fingers interlaced, and the man’s hand was radiating coldness. Deirdre could not help shivering. Brendan!”
“Deirdre, I don’t have the time to play your game.” Brendan interrupted her and spoke in an extremely cold. tone.
“Since it is a date, you should understand my intentions and behave accordingly to my preference. From now on,
I’m your husband. You will also need to treat me like you did in the past. You’re going to hold back your displeasure
now, no matter how disgusted you are by me.”
“Otherwise, you’re just going to dampen my excitement when you resist even my physical touch! Why would I want
to continue the date with you, and why should I fulfill your wish to get a divorce if that were the case?”
Deirdre’s eyes were bloodshot from anger.
