Brendan turned his head to look at Deirdre. She was momentarily stunned when she felt Brendan's earnest and burning gaze. She then heard his confident voice saying, "Deirdre, do you want to take a bet?""Bet?" Deirdre was puzzled. "What are you betting on?""If I miss even 1 of the 30 rounds this time, I will stop playing this game. If I succeed… you must agree to one condition."Deirdre was stunned. At this juncture, he was still thinking of betting with her. But it would be better to only lose once than lose money endlessly. She would rather end it sooner since Brendan couldn't hit everything accurately anyway."Fine."Upon receiving this answer, Brendan smiled and readjusted his gun-holding posture. He prepared himself and then pulled the trigger.This time, it was the sound of a balloon exploding."Uncle, you're amazing!" Aurora jumped up and down and cheered.The stall owner was taken aback and praised while grinning ear to ear, "Amazing! It's a good sign that you hit your

"Alright." At that point, Declan did not continue to ask any more questions. "Rest assured that I'll take care of Ms. McKinnon. I can't guarantee anything else, but I can at least guarantee her safety."Afterward, Deirdre got into Declan's car. Declan started the car engine and drove away under Brendan's watchful eye.Back at the villa, Brendan's words still echoed in Deirdre's mind. When he said that he would hurt her, was he afraid that what had happened that day would happen again? But why did Brendan suddenly become like this for no reason? He became afraid of his own actions as if everything was under Emily's control.After falling asleep with mixed emotions, Deirdre woke up very early in the morning. When she was in a daze on the bed, someone knocked on the door suddenly."Who is it?"Aurora whispered to the crack of the door, "Auntie, it's me!""Rory?" Surprised, Deirdre got up to open the door. The moment the door was opened, Aurora rushed in and closed the door very care

Deirdre admired Aurora's logical thinking. "Yeah, she's a murderer."Aurora was silent for a while, then asked again, "Then will she go to prison and be punished?"Deirdre didn't answer immediately but tried her best to look at Aurora's face and stroked her hair. "Does Rory want her to get the punishment she deserves?"Aurora lowered her head and pondered for a while, then suddenly asked, "Will Uncle Declan end up like my father?"'Deirdre frowned. "Rory, I can't give you an answer because I don't know what Declan means to your mother. But judging by your mother's character, since she can make your father commit suicide, Uncle Declan will end up in the same way once he displeases your mother."Aurora's pupils trembled, and she shook her head violently. "I don't want Uncle Declan to become like that!"Deirdre kissed her on the cheek. "So I will find a way to stop this. I will not let this happen before my eyes."She needed to stop it for the sake of Declan and Glenna. After getti

Deirdre felt a chill down her spine. Could one manipulate and subvert a person through hypnosis? That would be too scary. If one deprived that person of consciousness, wouldn't they become a walking zombie that was under control!?"And what a coincidence..." Sterling frowned. "That man is from Berth like me."Deirdre's heart thumped, and she took a breath. "What?"She was more frightened than surprised, but she still bit the bullet and asked, "Do you remember his name? He is probably the one who hypnotized Cillian! Maybe he also controls Declan with the same method to make him marry Laura!""Sorry." Facing Deirdre's urgentness, Sterling had no choice but to say, "I don't know him. That person is a traitor to the institute, so he is considered a taboo subject. No one dares to talk about him. I only heard of such a person when my professor was drunk."Deirdre opened her eyes in astonishment, lowered her head, and bit her lips tightly. "Then..." She raised her head and asked, "Do you

"I won't let you escape! You beat up someone and even hurt a pregnant woman! You are not allowed to leave until the police come!"Emily immediately got out of the car and explained, "The pregnant woman is his wife! This is a family dispute. Please, don't call the police!"As soon as she finished her sentence, the onlookers showed disgust. "Since the pregnant woman is his wife, why did he go mad and beat her? I didn't expect someone as handsome as him to beat his wife as if he's gone mad. He's an embarrassment of a man.""What family dispute? Just because they're husband and wife, it doesn't mean that beating her up was a minor matter. We've already called the police. We'll wait until the police arrive!"When Brendan came out of the police station, it was already dark. Declan threw away the cigarette butt and gave him a hard fist on the shoulder. "Are you awake now? How can you beat people up in the street? You even hurt Ms. McKinnon. You deserve a worse punishment than death!"Bre
