Chapter 551 How Did You Get In?
“Besides, every piece of evidence points to the fact that Charlene abducted you, so there’s no way he would help
her. I guess he’s just trying to redeem himself. That’s why he gave the evidence to the police.”
Deirdre found the remark to be saddening and amusing.
Brendan’s effort was completely worthless. Moreover, his repentance came two years too late.
If it came a little earlier, if her mother was still alive, perhaps she could pretend that nothing had happened and live
a peaceful life. However, everything had already collapsed, and she did not want Brendan’s repentance anymore.
She took a deep breath and lay back on the bed, her painful fingers still tightly clenched
She felt an ineffable feeling of lethargy overpowering her and fell asleep curled up in the bed.
She lost count of time until she felt someone touching her fingers. She was awakened forcefully by the unbearable
pain.

Someone was standing next to her bed.
“Who’s there?”
Deirdre struggled to get out of bed and hurled her body ferociously down the bed after entangling herself in the
blanket in a flurry. She shut her eyes instinctively at the very moment she felt the feeling of falling. However, the
intense pain that was supposed to come with the fall did not come as expected.
She was caught by a pair of wide, thick arms steadily.
The man’s faint scent bore into her nose from their close physical interaction. Even if Deirdre tried to forget it, she
could not refrain from recalling the man’s face. Her face turned ghastly pale instantly.
“Brendan?” She inhaled sharply and found her voice to say, “What are you doing here?”
The man did not respond. Meanwhile, Deirdre shouted with her pale face, “Mr. King- Mmm!”
In the next moment, the wide, huge, muscular palm covered her mouth. His leaning posture made both of them
tumble into the bed with one person on top of the other, tightly stuck together.
Deirdre widened her eyes with incredulity and vigilance.
Brendan regulated his breathing and said in a chilly voice, “Are you trying to get the people in the next room to
come and watch us having an affair by screaming now?”
‘Having an affair?”
Deirdre was furious. It was an insult to use that term on her.
She bit the man’s palm so strongly that she could bite off a chunk of his flesh.
Brendan furrowed his eyebrows tightly from the pain. He said, “I won’t stop you if you want to scream. However,
you must consider if you want Declan to find out that you’re spending the night with another man. I’m certain that
your man will learn about this incident as well. There’s no telling if he’s going to make wild conjectures and come
rushing back immediately”
Deirdre did not have the courage to move as soon as she heard the remark.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could not explain why Brendan had shown up in her room.
Moreover, she could not allow Kyran to learn about the incident. She did not wish to distract him more when he was
already troubled enough by his father’s severe illness.
Deirdre stopped biting at last and glared at the blurry figure before her with bloodshot eyes.
Brendan moved away his hand.
Deirdre lowered her voice and asked shakily, “How did you get in?”
“Through the window,” Brendan said without any guilt. In reality, he had come in through the front door
openly.
“You’re a madman…” Deirdre gnashed her teeth in anger.
She was puzzled when thinking about his atonement earlier and wondered if he had changed for the better. Now, it
seemed he was still as arrogant and proud as before.
“Are you incapable of respecting someone for the rest of your life?”
She suppressed her disgust and her shaky body.
Brendan could see her reaction, and his dark eyes dimmed. A moment later, he said tauntingly, “Is that man with
you capable of respecting others? If he is so good, why are you busy running about for
Charlene’s case when you’re blind?”
