Brendan pursed his lips and frowned slightly. "I remember that place."Deirdre was pleasantly surprised. "And then? What do you remember?""You eloped with Tobey and hid there to make me think that you were dead so that you could be with Tobey," he replied.The corners of Deirdre's mouth twitched. "You've clearly forgotten everything, but why does it feel like you're still trying to smear my name? Who said that I 'eloped' with Tobey?""Weren't you going to leave with Tobey?"This question stunned Deirdre. When she had lost all hope for Brendan, it was Tobey who had offered to help her. At that time, she really thought that it would be a good idea to use her whole life to repay Tobey's favor."It seems that I indeed remember correctly." Brendan's face darkened.Deirdre's hesitation made him upset, so he turned sideways, leaned over, and began to swamp her with kisses, trying to completely remove the name 'Tobey' from Deirdre's mind."Wait… Wait a minute..." Deirdre struggled whi

"Of course." Emily snorted coldly. She was not willing to let that woman marry Brendan.On the second day after receiving the information, Emily went to Brendan's villa in person.Unsure when Jet would receive firsthand information, Emily had to be prepared to prevent Brendan from getting it ahead of time. As she entered the hall, she immediately noticed Deirdre, who had her hair in a bun and was enjoying some fruit.Brendan sat next to her, occasionally accepting bites from Deirdre. When the grapes turned out to be sour, he leaned in and kissed her sweet lips to counteract the sourness. However, instead of approval, he received a disapproving look from Deirdre. She pursed her lips and wrinkled her face in displeasure."What? You fed it to me. Since it's sour, you will naturally have to bear the consequences." Brendan spoke righteously. Aggrieved, Deirdre said, "Then I won't feed you anymore.""Okay, then I'll eat the one in your mouth," he retorted.Emily's face contorted in r

"Sorry, I have only limited time to freely make a call, so... I didn't contact you immediately," said Deirdre.Tobey sounded down as he said, "Silly girl, you don’t have to apologize. Clearly, I should be the one to apologize to you. I am a man, but I couldn't protect you and let you fall into that man's hands. Now every time I think about it, I resent my incompetence."Deirdre's expression changed, and her hesitant eyes were reddish. If Tobey knew that she was with Brendan again, he would probably want to curse her. What was worse, Brendan might not truly be in love with her."Deirdre?" Tobey didn't get a response for a long time and couldn't help but ask again, "Are you okay now? Now that you can call me freely, does it mean that Brendan has separated from you?"Deirdre lowered her eyes. "I'm sorry, Tobey, he and I... are together again."The other end of the call suddenly fell silent. Deirdre bit her lip and struggled internally, and soon after, she heard Tobey sigh softly. "Di

Brendan was lost in thought. He liked Deirdre from the bottom of his heart—those feelings were beyond his reason. He had feelings and longed for her. But this was not exclusive to Deirdre. He also felt this way toward Emily.This confused him, and he could not figure out the answer. If he loved Deirdre and was reluctant to part with Emily, then what was this relationship to him? Was it fair to Deirdre?Because of that thought, he didn't dare to face Deirdre after he returned. He was very guilty and ashamed. In the end, Brendan did not go after Deirdre."Mrs. Wanner, follow her, and don't let anything happen to her."With a dazed expression, he opened the door and entered his room.-Deirdre walked out of the villa. The sun was very warm, but her heart was cold. As for why Brendan had not come after her, he had likely found his answer in his choice between Emily and her.Deirdre caressed her stomach as she laughed at herself for falling in love with him. If she hated Brendan as s

"Then that means he told—""No." Declan knew what Deirdre was going to say and interrupted her. "Ms. McKinnon, I hope you think through it carefully. If he loves you so much, will he suddenly change and fall in love with someone else? That woman is still the culprit who destroyed his body."Deirdre was stunned and bit her lower lip in confusion. Then, Declan added, "I heard Laura mention hypnosis. It can make a person have feelings for another person invisibly, and it is not controlled by oneself."Deirdre's face turned pale in an instant, and her soft lips trembled. She pressed her teeth tightly, lowered her head to restrain her emotions, and said, "Mr. King, so you mean that Brendan was hypnotized to have feelings for Emily, and he can't even control his feelings for Emily?""That's right," replied Declan. "The hypnotizer is on the same side as that group of people, so they will naturally attack Brendan. The weakening of Bren's body is a sign of their attack."I thought he could
