Chapter 187 He Taught You Frequently, Right

“I won’t…” Deirdre’s hand was swollen from the hit. She pulled back her hand and held it with her other hand as she said in an airy voice, “I want to live because I will only meet my mother by staying alive.”

Brendan’s expression was tainted with sternness when he heard that. He removed the tie that he had been attempting to tie around his neck but had failed due to agitation. He grabbed Deirdre’s hand and stuffed the tie into her fingers.

“Fasten the tie for me!”

Deirdre reacted when her hands felt the tie. It had already been a very long time since she had done this, but her movements were still extremely skillful. It was because she used to practice every day in the past so she could perform her duty as Mrs. Brighthall.

Brendan was completely unaware of that.

The reason he made Deirdre fasten the tie was to change the topic of conversation, but he felt infuriated by the sight of Deirdre being so skillful with the tie.

“I suppose Sterling frequently taught you how to fasten a tie since you’re so good at it.” He then said in a sarcastic tone, “He’s just a doctor who operates a run-down clinic. Does he need to wear a suit as well?”

Deirdre felt her heart wrench in pain when Brendan suddenly mentioned Sterling. She kept her gaze lowered and her lips shut.

Brendan clutched her lower jaw swiftly and pressed on, continuing the interrogation. “Are you mute? Speak!”

“What do you want me to say?” Deirdre was confused. “How is this related to Sterling? He has already left the city…”

‘Is Brendan still going to involve Sterling in our conversation so he can mock and mess with Sterling every so often?’

“He has left the city, but that doesn’t mean that nothing happened between you two in the past.” Brendan grew more and more furious as he looked at the beautifully-fastened tie on his neck. He pulled it apart strenuously and glared at Deirdre. “Who taught you this technique?”

“I learned it myself…”

Brendan sneered. “I didn’t know that you could still learn it as a blind person.”

Deirdre bit her lower lip. “I learned it by watching you fasten your tie in the past.”

She used to take his tie and wrap it around the servant’s neck so she could practice fastening it in the past, hoping that a day like this would come.

The day had come, yet Brendan was being extremely cynical. On the other hand, she had already lost any feeling of excitement in her heart.

Brendan could not help being stunned. ‘She learned by watching me? Does this mean that this matter is unrelated to Sterling?

“She didn’t sleep with Sterling, only to wake up the next morning to help him fasten his tie to build on their love daily?

His expression relaxed when these thoughts popped into his mind. He clutched Deirdre’s wrist and said, It’s good that Sterling was not a part of this. We’re not divorced yet. I assure you that you won’t have a good time if you are so eager to cheat on mel

Deirdre did not speak. She would never have brought up anything related to Sterling if Brendan had not brought him up.

“Also…” Brendan loosened his grip over her hand and said, “Why were you so emotional yesterday that you called me and pleaded to meet Ophelia?”

His eyes were narrowed, glistening with sternness and suppressed anger. “Did someone tell you nonsense?”

Deirdre suddenly remembered the voice clip played by Charlene and felt her heart wrench in pain. She pursed her lips tightly and made up her mind to trust Brendan and stop having any other thoughts.

“Why are you still trying to hide something from me?” Brendan could not suppress his anger. “Why did you suddenly bring up Ophelia and think that she might be dead? Someone must have instigated this! I won’t ever let that person off!” 1

He would never let that person have a good time after exposing this matter no matter who they were.

When she heard that, Deirdre’s expression turned solemn. She knew that Charlene must have been well- prepared for her to show up so grandly at the villa. Brendan would not only not believe her if she mentioned Charlene’s name, but what had happened in the past would happen again.
