Chapter 560 Put an End to This From Now On
Deirdre was stunned while Brendan came to react to the situation by assuming a cold, sharp expression on his face.
“However, since we’re already here, don’t try to pick faults anymore. It’s already rare that I remembered your wish
in the past. Do you think I would come here to endure the cold willingly if not as your compensation?”
“Compensation?”
“Hmm, compensation.” Brendan’s eyes were dark as ink. “You can put an end to your mother’s case from
now on.”
Deirdre’s pupils shook violently. She was so furious that her entire body was shaking beyond her control.
‘So, I should bring everything to an end just with his carefree compensation after those acts of his. pushing things
too far, and the human life that was lost!?”
Deirdre could not hold back her anger and stood up. She was afraid that she would give Brendan a slap if she were
to stay any longer
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe ran to the door, and before she could walk away, Brendan caught up to her and grabbed her wrist. He
furrowed his eyebrows and suppressed his anger “Why are you freaking out?”
“Freaking out?” Deirdre felt her heart turn cold, and her eyes were bloodshot. “You’re right! I am freaking. out.
Please loosen your grip on me if you don’t want me to freak out on you so I can head to the washroom to calm
myself down!”
“You’re only going to the washroom?” Brendan was momentarily caught in a daze.
Deirdre looked toward him in derision. “Don’t worry, Mr. Brighthall. Naturally, I will fulfill what I’ve promised. I will
ensure that the date carries on so you will agree to get a divorce, and I’ll continue until you are pleased.”
The words that she used were filled with irony, and her remark stabbed into his heart like a needle hidden in a
cotton ball.
His face turned ghastly pale from the pain, but it did not leave behind any hideous wound on his heart. In fact, he
did not even bleed a single drop of blood.
Brendan loosened his grip. “I’ll get the waitress to take you there.”
He called over the waitress to send Deirdre to the washroom. The waitress waited by the door while Deirdre
splashed cold water on her face.
She raised her head to look at the woman in her reflection with blurry facial features. She was shaking ever so
slightly and found it ridiculous that she was actually infuriated by Brendan.
She had assumed that the man’s words would not affect her because she had lost all hope and was utterly
disappointed. Yet, his carefree, unbothered behavior became a spike that stabbed through her body. She was in so
much pain that she cried.
She could not refrain from pulling out her phone to call Kyran.
The call was picked up after a while. His voice sounded warm and comfortable like the wind on a spring’s day, only
that his surprise could not be concealed. “Deirdre? Why are you calling me all of a sudden? Are you alright?”
Tears welled up in Deirdre’s eyes beyond her control, and she could only say smilingly, “Can’t I call you for no
reason? When have you become such a hotshot that your girlfriend can’t even check up on you, Mr
Reed?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyran chuckled and said, “No, I’m not trying to stop you from checking up on me. It’s just rather unexpected. I
thought that you’ve been mistreated, and you’re calling me to vent your grievance.”
Deirdre’s gaze dimmed, but she forced herself to perk up by saying, “How can I be mistreated when I’m home
alone? It’s only that… I miss you…”
The other end of the call fell silent. It sounded like there was a commotion despite the silence.
Soon afterward, a voice inquired, “Sir, is there-”
Deirdre could not hear anything else after that. It was because the phone’s speaker was covered suddenly, and the
voice became distorted during the call. She could only tell that it was a woman speaking.
The voice sounded familiar for some unknown reason.
Deirdre could not refrain from asking, “Where are you? Why is there a woman speaking next to you?”
The phone was pulled closer to Kyran’s mouth as he said, “I’m in the hospital, and the nurse was looking for me
earlier.”
“Really?”
Deirdre lowered her gaze. Meanwhile, the waitress knocked on the door to remind Deirdre it was time to go out.
