Emily asked, "When was it finalized?""Half a year ago, but the transaction only happened last month after they went through all the procedures. What's the matter?"Emily assured her that everything was fine and immediately turned her gaze across the room.Instantly, Deirdre's face turned pale.Had they already planned this half a year ago? Could it be that Emily had another trick up her sleeve? No... Half a year ago, Emily hadn't even come to Neve yet!Deirdre asked, "Where is the contract? I can't just simply take your words as fact. I need to see it in black and white!""I will ask my assistant to send the contract," Emily said with confidence. "After all, no one can accept being slandered like this."Deirdre's eyes had a complicated look as she gazed at Mark. At the same time, Sam was also puzzled by her reaction. At present, Emily did not seem the least bit guilty. In fact, she even looked confident… Was Sam mistaken in his investigation?In any case, they had no choice bu

Brendan's originally softened brows and eyes turned bone-chillingly icy again. Of course, he knew what Sam felt toward Deirdre, but he thought that Sam had learned to restrain himself. When Emily reminded him, he realized how out of bounds Sam was acting."Sam, I warned you before to remember your identity. Deirdre is my woman! If what happened today occurs again, don't even think about setting foot in Neve from now on!"Sam was so shocked that his entire face turned pale."Sir!" He hurriedly explained, "It's not what you think! I have no such feelings toward Ms. McKinnon! Today—"Emily interrupted him. "No such feelings? If you had no such feelings, would you have secretly gone to another city to ask Mark to come over behind Mr. Brighthall's back?"Hearing this, Sam clenched his fists tightly, and Brendan didn't bother to listen any longer."Get out!"Seeing Brendan's cold face and barely contained fury, Sam had to hold back from saying the words he was about to blurt out.He

"Brendan, since you believe so much in Emily's words and think that I will go to any lengths to prove myself, then you should be with her. Let me go!"Brendan's pupils shrank in shock, and he looked at Deirdre in disbelief."You want to go?""Obviously?" Deirdre clutched the blanket, and her heart ached. She would have never imagined that they would reach this point before the child was born. "You don't even have basic trust in me, so what else do we have to talk about?" Then, Brendan grabbed her wrist, and his handsome face tensed up. "What trust do you want? Deirdre, I trusted you, so I went to investigate Mark. In the end, the result of the investigation was completely different from what you said!"His company hasn't been targeted at all. It's all because of his own doing. He gambled and went after women. No matter how much I trust you, I must distinguish the facts! You slandered and vilified Emily again and again. Do I have to do the same as you and slander and vilify her to

When Deirdre passed by, Brendan grabbed her arm abruptly."Where are you going?" He had drunk some alcohol today, so his head was aching slightly. He warned in a low voice, "Deirdre, don't make me angry."Deirdre's teeth chattered as she looked up at him. "Make you angry? Are you going to hit me?"These words made Brendan's face sour. He leaned close to her as if to coax her or to give in."Deirdre, how could I?"Deirdre tilted her head to avoid his approaching lips. He reeked of alcohol, which made her uncomfortable. In the past, he never came here reeking of alcohol and cigarettes. The details already told her everything."How could you? You can even attack your subordinate, who treats you so well. How about a woman who can be replaced at any time?"As soon as she finished her sentence, Brendan's face turned cold."Are you here to seek justice for Sam?"Deirdre withdrew her hand and said, "I wouldn't dare. After all, I can't even explain myself, although you view me as such

Deirdre resisted the urge to explode in a fit of rage. "Since that's the case, why don't you make it up to her? You've already contacted her behind my back anyway. Merely compensating her is within your ability, right?"Brendan's face turned cold. He turned her face over and said seriously, "I contacted her all for your sake. Deirdre, even if you don't know how to be grateful, you shouldn't treat her so maliciously. Emily spent a lot of effort contacting the ophthalmologist for you. Aren't you a little moved?""Why would I be?" Deirdre pushed his hand away and got up from the bed. "If she could contact the ophthalmologist in the first place, why did she come to treat me in person? To put it bluntly, she made someone else come after this method failed. Do I have to thank her for ruining the people I'm close with?"Brendan frowned. "It's because of Mrs. Engel and the others again. What did they say to you behind my back?"Deirdre was so angry that she didn't bother to quarrel with hi
