Chapter 694 Under Someone's Spell?
Before Brendan could say anything, Deirdre said smilingly, "Perhaps I might listen to the reason you didn’t come
home late at night, but you need not explain about your relationship with the woman.”
Brendan felt his heart racing, and the panic in his speech could not be concealed when he said, "Deirdre?"
'That is because it's unnecessary," Deirdre answered swiftly. Her gaze was gentle as usual when she said, "I trust
you, and I trust that your relationship with any other person is pure. I trust that you won't cheat on me or betray
our relationship. Hence, I'm not going to indulge in wild conjectures, and you don't need to be anxious about that." i

remembered feeling an unbearable burning sensation in his chest when he was driving here.

him after coming home late.

help feeling like crying despite being a man.
"Deirdre, how have I ever deserved such love..."

wholeheartedly.
Deirdre felt something warm spreading on her shoulder, and she could not refrain from asking, "Are you crying,
Kyran?"
"No."
She smiled, raised her head, and said, "It's me who should say, 'How have I ever deserved such love'. My world was
all dark initially with my mother’s passing while I was hurt by the person I deeply loved. I lost the will to live, and it
was you who saved me. You made me gradually learn to live for myself, and it's my honor to meet you."
Brendan felt an ineffable feeling in his heart, and he could only hug Deirdre tightly.
Deirdre could not stand it anymore after he was done having dinner and dozed off with her head leaning on his
shoulder.

because he was fixated on xo dot com thinking about Deirdre at home, fearing that she would do something
foolish.
"I'm sorry."
"Sorry?" Declan kept quiet for a moment before he stopped joking around." What’s going on with you? Are you
under someone's spell or something?"
"Sort of."
It had been a long time since he had heard Brendan being so depressed.
The only time Brendan behaved this way was when Deirdre went missing after drowning in the sea. He had been so
depressed that he refused to take care of his health. However, Deirdre was with him, and they would travel afar in
