Chapter 629 I Just Wanted to Live
The bodyguard behind them said, "Yes, she's telling the truth."
Cillian frowned. His desire disappeared without a single trace, and he felt a bit disgusted.
"I know what you want, Mr. King. But we don’t have to rush everything. We can always have more fun after we've
pulled Brendan down from his throne."
Cillian felt that Deirdre was right. Women were the last thing he would be lacking. However, the satisfaction of
being able to trample Brendan under his feet was something that could not be replaced by anything else.
"Where is Charli now?"
"She’s at a church in Neve.
"Church?" Gillian's face sank. The place was a bit too far away. He said with displeasure, "What is she doing there?"
"A while ago, Brendan was seriously ill and almost died in the hospital, so Charli went to the church to pray for him

It was a good excuse, and Cillian did not press on as he was confident that Deirdre did not dare to lie to him. He
went away excitedly as he was going to Neve tonight to capture Charli.
After the door was closed, Deirdre's lips were trembling, and her back was wet with sweat.
She thought she still had time. She did not expect Cillian to be so fast.
There was no way Charlene would be at Mt. Ash in Neve. She was waiting for the first trial at the police station’s jail.
Thus, Cillian would definitely find out that she was lying. Therefore, if she wanted to run away from here, she had to
do it today.
Deirdre felt like she was sitting on pins and needles when the thought surfaced in her mind.
She had already figured out the habits of the two bodyguards outside in these two days. They would go down to
have their meal every night at 10:00 p.m.
They would talk when they ate, so as long as she did not cause too much commotion, she would not alarm them.
Therefore, when they went for their meals, Deirdre pushed the table over to the door to block it. After that, she
took the sheet off and wrapped it around her elbow together with the clock on the table beside the bed. She then
came to the bathroom and smashed the window with all her might.
The window shattered.
There was noise coming from downstairs, and Deirdre’s face was filled with sweat. Her lips were trembling, and she
continued smashing on the window until it was large enough to pass through. Afterward, she wrapped herself in a
blanket and jumped from the window.
When she fell from the second floor, she felt as if her lungs were coming out of her throat, and her eyes were
tearing up.
At the same time, the bodyguards finally entered the room on the second floor. Deirdre did not dare to waste any
more time and ran straight ahead.
Even though she could not see the road clearly, she did not stop. After all, she knew that they would torture her

However, she was nearly blind and could barely discern anything with her eyes. She could not see the road ahead
clearly, and she accidentally tripped and fell down. Those people had already jumped down from the second floor.
In the next moment, they arrived in front of her and directed their flashlights directly at her face.
One of them said, his face dark, "Miss McKinnon, come back. Please don't make things difficult for us."
By the time Cillian came back from Neve, it was already the second day.
He kicked the door to Deirdre’s room furiously. Deirdre was lying on the bed, her arms were tied behind her back,
and her eyes were staring blankly ahead.
Rage instantly rose from the bottom of Ci Ilian's heart as he walked forward and gave her a slap across her face.
"B*tch! Not only did you try to run away, but you lied to me too! I went to Mt. Ash, and there was nothing there!"
There was blood lining the corner of Deirdre's lips. After she heard what he said, she lowered her head. "I just
wanted to live"
Since no one would save her, she could only rely on herself.
If it were in the past, she would not care if she was alive or dead since she had nothing left in this world. Instead of
being tortured, she would rather die.
