She recalled how Brendan tried his best to maintain his composure and defended her despite being humiliated by the ordeal.
It meant that he still cared about her and had enough care and love for her that he could not bear to watch her suffer.

Solemnly, she said, "She's gone, Miss McKinnon." Deirdre rubbed her arms, which were cold from being exposed to the AC.
"Phew! Thank you so much." "No need to thank me! I owe Mr.Brighthall a personal debt.So, honestly, joining in a ruse to fool her is nothing.Hell, I'd gladly throw my life away for him!" Deirdre flashed a smile while her mind retraced to the incident.

"Bren! Oh, God, Bren! You're back! I really thought you had already abandoned me!" She wept pitifully.
"I'm begging you. Please don't castaside! You're the only one I got!" Nothing about his handsbut deadpanned visage changed. He simply removed his hand away from hers, his eyes shrouded in an unreadable emotion.

"B-Bren?" "What makes you think I'm interested in a woman who has betrayed me, Charlene?" Brendan narrowed his eyes.
There was resentment in his voice.
"If you stay with me, everyone will know Brendan Brighthall simps for a woman who's gone wild with all kinds of men behind his back! Do you know what that means! ?" Charlene froze, but she knew what he was implying.
Brendan was angry about her betrayal. But if he really was disgusted with her, he would have discarded her right there and then. He would not have given hsecond chance! "Bren, I know your pain. More than anyone-more than you, even I feel like jumping off a bridge after something like this happened!" Charlene sobbed behind her hands.
