Chapter 144 Deirdre is My Woman

Was the person he hugged Deirdre McKinnon? Was the person the stubborn Deirdre who wouldn’t stop provoking him?

Why did it seem like he was hugging a cold, lifeless corpse?

Brendan couldn’t even sense her breath. This made him worried. Before he could recollect himself, he had strode into the house and rushed upstairs.

Everyone in the living room was shocked, looking at Brendan rushing in. His eyes reddened while carrying Deirdre, who was in a life-threatening phase. They were surprised to see the panic on Brendan’s face, which didn’t appear even when the Brighthall Group was placed in a menacing state

Brendan turned on the hot water tap of the bathtub and put her in “Deirdre! Deirdre!”

He gnashed his teeth and commanded, “Wake up! Do you hear me!?”

Why would it turn out like this when he merely wanted to punish her by locking her in the storehouse? Brendan couldn’t figure it out and never knew the punishment would eventually fall on him.

Brendan was afraid. He was afraid that Deirdre would stop breathing, even just for a split second. Hence, he couldn’t stop worrying.

When Deirdre’s body got warmer, he instantly called the doctor. After he had done all he could, his shirt was soaked in sweat.

All his subordinates were standing quietly in the living room. When they saw Brendan stepping down the stairs, tired, the atmosphere grew oppressive. None of them would even dare to breathe loudly.

“All of you, go back.”

Brendan’s command sounded like long-awaited freedom. Everyone except Sam left immediately. Sam remained standing at the door, his heart aching so much that he hardly breathed.

Traveling all over the world, even though he used to experience the critical moment of almost losing his life in the hail of bullets, he had never been as scared and restless as he was today.

Sam clenched his fists and fell silent for a moment. Without hesitation, he asked, “Mr. Brighthall, can I wait a little longer? I’ll leave immediately after the doctor declares that Miss McKinnon is saved.”

Brendan was unhappy at Sam’s request. Sam had crossed the line outrageously.

His black eyes narrowed, his gaze became indifferent, and the aura he exerted forced Sam’s face to turn pale.

“Sam, don’t you think that I don’t know who brought the puppy to Deirdre. Although I don’t care about it, it doesn’t mean that I don’t know. It’s just like you now,” said Brendan in a condescending manner. Indifferently, he added. “Deirdre is my woman. Now and forever.”

Sam’s face went white. “Mr. Brighthall…Y-You’ve misunderstood…”

Brendan sneered, but he slowly tightened his fists behind him. “I hope that I’ve misunderstood. Now, get

out!”

Sam eventually went out without saying a word. Meanwhile, Brendan leaned on the chair with his hands. as support. He looked unexpectedly grave, and his eyes turned stormy.

He knew better than anyone else that Deirdre’s face had been disfigured. He didn’t care about that disgusting face of hers. However, he had never thought that someone would not care either.

All of Sam’s ex-girlfriends were charming and alluring. Yet, such a man would have a crush on Deirdre.

“Deirdre, I’ve really underestimated you.”

Brendan gnashed his teeth. First was Sterling, and now Sam. Yet, it was the result of disfigurement. If Deirdre wasn’t disfigured and maintained her natural beauty, she would be more attractive, wouldn’t she?

After the doctor checked on Deirdre, he fed her some medicine. Following that, he checked on her a few times before relaxing his tightly knitted eyebrows. “She’s temporarily safe. But she has to be taken care of because of the severe cold.” Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Watching Brendan staring at the woman lying on the bed without uttering a single word, the doctor couldn’t help but say, “What kind of hatred is it that she’s been forced into this state? Even if it was a punishment, reprimanding her would be more than enough. If she hadn’t been so lucky and her body. temperature hadn’t completely cooled down, she’d have already…”
