"But Declan remained calm and collected when I interacted with him, so I'm wondering… whether there's any misunderstanding between you, and that's why he treated you that way," Deirdre said."Misunderstanding? What kind of misunderstanding could there be between us?" Glenna lowered her head, lost in thought.Deirdre suddenly realized something and said, "I used to spend some time alone with Laura at the rest area, and she mentioned you. She said you did something that broke Declan's heart, which caused him to be seriously ill, and that he was devastated by it."Glenna was stunned for a moment, then shook her head. "It's impossible!"She became agitated and continued. "Declan and I were separated because his brother was involved in a car accident. I gave him enough time to settle everything, but everything had changed when we finally met again! If I really did hurt Declan at the beginning of our separation, how could he…"Glenna blushed.Although Deirdre didn't really understand,

Or… did she ever truly know Declan?"At the beginning… everything was normal. Everyone got along fine, and I don't know why it turned out like this. But as long as it has nothing to do with Glenna, it's the same as usual for Mr. King," Fionn replied, his face contorted with distress."It's the same as usual as long as it has nothing to do with Glenna?" Deirdre was startled.When Brendan came back, Deirdre recounted everything that had happened. When Brendan handed her a glass of water, she said with her lips pursed, "Brendan, do you think that Declan is drugged? And that's the reason he hates Glenna so much and wants to marry Laura?""Is there such a drug in this world?" Brendan asked.Deirdre shook her head and smiled wryly. "I'm just kidding. How can it be real? It's just a legend…""Since there isn't, then it should be what Declan really wants. Instead of guessing, why not go ask Glenna what has actually happened between her and Declan that has led to his change?" Brendan sugg

If only she had half of her courage…Brendan kissed her palm, then slowly traced his way up her wrist. "Breakfast is on the table next to us. Aren't you hungry? Or do you want to stay with me a little longer?"Deirdre realized what was happening and quickly got up.Brendan also stood up, his eyes full of tenderness, but suddenly he felt light-headed and fell to the floor with a loud bang."Brendan!" Deirdre was startled.Brendan held his forehead and forced himself to stand up, explaining, "I accidentally hit the table and fell."Deirdre didn't suspect him and couldn't help but remind him, "Be careful."After breakfast, Brendan continued to work on company matters. As noon approached, he took Deirdre to Declan's villa by car.At the destination, Deirdre saw two figures at the door. It seemed that Laura was still snuggling up to Declan, and their relationship remained the same, unaffected by the wedding or Glenna's interference.Deirdre felt uneasy and walked toward them with

Afterward, Declan had to return to the company, so it became inconvenient for Deirdre and Brendan to stay for long, and they quickly left the villa.On the way, Brenda asked, "What did you talk about with Laura?"Deirdre leaned her head on his shoulder and looked up at him with her beautiful eyes shimmering, telling him what Laura had said before.After listening, Brendan was surprised. "Declan deliberately toyed with Glenna? How is that possible? What could have caused Declan to hate her so much?""I know." Deirdre also frowned. "This is something I can't figure out no matter what. If I remember correctly, Glenna and Declan only met after I introduced them. At that time, they were just common friends, but there was certainly no hatred between them. Unless after I left, Glenna did something to cause Declan to hate her so much."Do you know what happened between them afterward?" Deirdre asked.Brendan pursed his lips, his black eyes deep in thought before answering, "I don't know.

Glenna stared at Declan's black eyes, which were narrowed with merciless mockery.Suddenly, a cold chill swept over her, and she took a deep breath and looked away.Declan followed closely behind and lit a cigarette, his smiling eyes now devoid of any humor as he leaned against the car.Glenna clenched her fists, trying to stay calm, and asked, "What do you want to say?"Declan took a puff of smoke and blew out a cloud of white mist as he spoke. "Two months ago, you gave yourself to me. Do you remember?"Glenna was stunned for a moment, her face distorted with anger. She wanted nothing more than to rush over and slap Declan.Declan looked at her with condescension, the shadow of the sunlight falling on her, and he repeated, "You gave yourself to me, do you remember?"Glenna trembled all over, her rational mind telling her she couldn't beat Declan."What do you want to say?" she asked."I took a picture," Declan replied.Glenna's eyes widened in shock."Just the picture you w
