Chapter 271 She Has Been Deceived

Deirdre stood frozen in the same spot, her eyes wide in astoundment as she listened to the sound of someone sobbing with her face covered. She felt as if her ears were playing a trick on her and she was in so much pain that she could not speak. The voice that she could recognize anywhere… The voice that had kept her company all this time and called out her name was actually saying to another girl now… ‘You’re my dearest child?’ “Really? I thought you'd abandoned me. Why did you not respond to me when I’ve been attempting to contact you all this time? Besides, that blind woman in the room is addressing you as ‘mother’. You’re only 40 years old. How did you end up with such a grown daughter, and how do I end up having an elder sister?”“Uh…” Maeve sounded hesitant. Siobhan was growing very impatient. She stamped her foot in anger as she looked at the door. “What the heck is going on! Tell me, quick. If you don’t give me a proper explanation, I will disown you as my mother from now

Chapter 272 I’ll Be Back

Maeve’s face turned ghastly pale instantly. “What happened to your hand!”She hastily called for the doctor and nurse, yet Deirdre was jolted back to reality. She covered her bloody hand with her other hand and said with a lowered gaze, “It’s… It’s fine. Don’t worry.”“How could you say that it’s fine? The dressing is soaked and red! Why won’t you take care of yourself? What are you going to do when I leave today?”Maeve was panic-stricken and furious. The doctor came and examined Deirdre, only to find that her wound had opened up again and needed stitches. The doctor frowned deeply at once. “Mr. Brighthall was very worried that your palm would be scarred right from the start. You need stitches again now, so that is surely going to leave a scar. Ms. McKinnon, bear with it and bite something if you can’t stand the pain.”Deirdre’s mind was somewhat unhinged. She was in so much pain after the stitching procedure that she was sweating, yet she did not make a sound. Only her eyes wer

Chapter 273 Do You Remember That I Was Turned Into a Scapegoat

Maeve lowered her head to check the time and furrowed her eyebrows. “It’s after nine…”“You’re going to leave at ten, right?”It would certainly be impossible for Maeve to claim that she was willing to part with Deirdre. She was very fond of Deirdre yet she was still not Deirdre’s real mother, and her own daughter was still waiting for her. “Hmm,” Maeve said smilingly, feigning a relaxed demeanor. “But it’s a good thing that I’m going to receive treatment. That way, I won’t forget your childhood stories next time.”Deirdre cracked a smile and delayed giving a response. Then, she shut her eyes and said, “Mother, will you… please call me by my name again?”Maeve appeared to be slightly hesitant. “Deirdre?”A tear rolled down from the corner of Deirdre’s eye. “Thank you.”Maeve stretched out her hand to wipe away Deirdre’s tears. In the end, Maeve left. Deirdre did not see her off because she did not have the ability to be there. She assumed that it was only a simple farewel

Chapter 274 Die, Brendan!

Deirdre did not answer but she continued talking about this topic. “You took away the house where my mother was staying and let her be taken by some unknown psychiatric facility to be punished. She was 40 years old but she was forced to eat rotten food and get beaten up. I had no choice but to submit myself after seeing how cruel you were…”Brendan’s pupils constricted abruptly and he felt incredulous. “Hold on! What are you talking about? I did take back the house where your mother was residing but I never let her be taken by that psychiatric facility. Do you remember it wrong?”“Remember it wrong?” Tears streamed down Deirdre’s face continuously. The scene that had taken place a year ago had haunted her nightmares for countless nights. Her mother used to be a proud woman when she was young, yet she had been treated like an animal when she was sick because of Deirdre. ‘Brendan made such a casual remark about me remembering it wrong… Would that turn back time and return everyth

Chapter 275 I’m Disgusted by You

Deirdre burst out laughing while she was crying. “Brendan, you enjoy regarding me as a fool, right? I believe that you are delighted in your heart that I was deceived by your lowly lie and kept going in circles, right?“Yesterday evening…” Deirdre felt intense pain in her throat. “You told me that I still have you. Were you mocking me at the time? On the other hand, I believed you like a fool!”“No!” Brendan’s face turned ghastly from the pain. He objected so strongly that blood was flowing out of his wound once again. He felt the warm flow of endless blood on his palm. He was scared but he was not afraid that he would bleed to death. He was scared that Deirdre would suffer an emotional breakdown. “The words that I said… I meant them sincerely… Deirdre, I’m sorry…”He had nothing else left to say at that very moment but sorry. It was because he could not do anything to resurrect a dead person. Blood was gushing out of his abdomen wildly. The pain stripped away his strength b

Chapter 276 Police Report

Sam witnessed the scene when he came in after Brendan. He saw the woman standing coldly and Brendan kneeling on the ground, his lips ghastly, his hand covering his abdomen, which was bleeding profusely. “Mr. Brighthall!” He ran over to Brendan in a haste. Deirdre held the knife and went running toward Brendan once again. “Brendan, you will atone for your crime in hell!”“Ms. McKinnon!”Sam roared and stepped forward swiftly to stop Deirdre, striking the knife out of Deirdre’s hand. It landed on the floor, and Sam was incredulous. “Ms. McKinnon! What are you doing?”“What am I doing?” Deirdre raised her head to reveal her face, which was filled with hatred and tears. “I’m avenging my mother!”“Please calm down…” Sam did not care about anything but Brendan’s wound. It was a very deep wound, and the blood had drenched half of Brendan’s shirt. His expression was extremely unpleasant, and he hastily called 911. Brendan’s breathing sounded weak, and he leaned against the end of the

Chapter 277 Take Me

Sam felt his heart racing as soon as he heard the remark. He said with a flattering smile, “What do you mean premeditated murder? Is there some sort of misunderstanding?”The police officer said with a frown, “Do you think that there is a misunderstanding when the stench of blood is so strong here? Can you stop the people outside from talking about this situation? I’m warning you not to interfere with the prosecution of this crime. Deidre is a criminal suspect, and we are taking her to the police station for an interrogation today!”Upon saying that, the man scanned the woman sitting on the floor and noticed that her disfigured face matched the police report completely. He did not comment further. He only said, “Deirdre, you’re coming with us!”The others were stunned. Sam hastily stepped forward and said, “This is a misunderstanding, sir! This must be a misunderstanding. Someone was injured here indeed, but it was definitely not a crime as serious as premeditated murder! The inju

Chapter 278 Where’s Deirdre

Madam Brighthall was extremely furious and refused to listen to Sam’s explanation. “If you owe someone money, you return the money. If you try to kill someone, you pay with your life. I don’t care what happened between them. Since that woman injured Brendan, she deserves to be punished! Bring me the phone.”…Deirdre regained consciousness when a bucket of cold water was poured on her. She had lost count of how long it had been since she had been detained at the police station. She figured that the people in her surroundings were all criminals. The police officer standing in front of her gave an order in a cold voice. “Come out, Deirdre.”Deirdre followed the police officer and heard her handcuffs clanging when she was pinned against the table. His overbearing voice came from above her as he said, “Deirdre, do you know what your offense is? You broke Criminal Law Act 232 regarding first-degree manslaughter. You’ll be sentenced to death, life imprisonment, or no less than ten years

Chapter 279 Why Would You Put Your Life at Risk Like This?

“I’m sorry.” Brendan propped his forehead and said, “I was only trying to find out how Deirdre is currently. After all, it was my fault her mother died.”“How was it your fault?” Charleen bit her lower lip tightly. “She was the one who committed suicide. Were you going to assign someone to watch over her all day long? On the other hand, Ms. McKinnon is too insensible. You treated her mother so well and you even made an exception to bury her…”“That was nothing.” Brendan interrupted her, his eyebrows furrowed even tighter. “Had I not made her your scapegoat, Ophelia wouldn’t have died.”“So do you regret what you did?” Deirdre was incredulous, and her lips were trembling. Brendan was so agitated in his heart that he could not be bothered to explain himself. Meanwhile, Sam suddenly entered the room in a rush, and his dejected eyes lit up abruptly when he saw Brendan. “You’re finally awake, Mr. Brighthall!”“What happened?” Brendan felt uneasy. “The police came and took Ms. McKinn

Chapter 280 Deirdre Has Lost Her Mind for Real!

Brendan covered his abdomen weakly. He could not feel the pain in his injury anymore, perhaps due to the pain in his heart, which overpowered everything else. On the contrary, he cracked a smile and said, “Mother, bail her out…”He said in a shaky voice, “I owe it to her because I was the cause of her mother’s death. Aside from the fact that she didn’t manage to stab me to death, I’d deserve it even if I were to die for real.”“You…” Madam Brighthall was rendered speechless. She staggered, taking a few steps due to her intense headache. “What on earth has happened between you two?”Brendan felt the warm, moist sensation in his hands. Before he could speak, a doctor came rushing into the room. The sutures of his wound were ripped. The wound would need to be closed up again, and he would need another surgery to stop the bleeding. When he came out of the operating theater, Brendan was still trying to force himself to stay conscious. “Sam, go to the police station to check on Deirdr
