Deirdre turned her head and glanced at Brendan, who was very surprised. "When was this hot spring prepared?"The staff member was stunned by this question. "Didn't Mr. Reed already know about this for a long time? The village head also specifically said that you wanted a hot spring—""Ahem!" Brendan started to cough. Meanwhile, Deirdre's ears turned red, and she picked up the pillow on the recliner and threw it toward Brendan.Brendan took it with one hand, then he said innocently, "I really don't remember saying that, but it's nice that we have a hot spring to enjoy. It's good for pregnant women to soak in hot springs for half an hour every day as it can improve your blood flow.""Go to hell." Deirdre wanted to go back to the house, but Brendan pulled her into his arms.Taking a hint, the staff member left, and Brendan became even more daring. "It's really nice here. This small courtyard is isolated, so no one will bother us here. We can even have a soak in the hot springs, and I

Amelie glanced at Logan and let out a sigh. "It's not for any particular reason, but Southedge can be quite unsafe. There are frequent accidents, and a strict hierarchy exists there. If outsiders visit, it's advisable to have someone accompany you. Otherwise, if you unintentionally offend someone, it can lead to trouble."Deirdre took a deep breath. "Is it really as dangerous as you describe?"Amelie smiled slightly. "I may have exaggerated a bit. Even in a chaotic city, law enforcement officers and officials maintain order. I was referring to certain rough neighborhoods. However, if you do plan to go, we can recommend some safer places so that you won't encounter any troublemakers."Deirdre sighed, uncertain when she would have the opportunity to visit, but she thanked them nonetheless."Have you always lived in Southedge?""Yes, we'll return there after a while of traveling," Amelie replied. She glanced at Brendan, removed her high heels, and rubbed her silk-stockinged feet agai

"I've toyed with a few, and I guarantee she will return for more. I will make your girlfriend feel—"Brendan got up, grabbed Logan's neckline, and slammed his fist hard on his evil and filthy face.After Brendan delivered a punch to Logan's face, he didn't relent. The depth of his hatred was boundless, and his fist struck Logan's face relentlessly, like a solid stone. With each scream from Logan, blood spilled from his mouth.Amelie gasped, her hand covering her mouth in shock. She never expected such a violent altercation to unfold before her eyes. As the realization sank in, she cried out, "Help! Someone is assaulting my boyfriend! Help! Someone is assaulting my boyfriend!"All eyes in the vicinity turned toward them, but Brendan showed no signs of stopping. His eyes blazed with a crimson hue, fueled by a desire to inflict harm upon Logan.Soon, the staff rushed over, panic-stricken, and managed to pull Brendan away.Logan bore the brunt of the assault, his face badly swollen a

In any case, Brendan had made the first move, making it difficult for them to gain the favor of the onlookers.Deirdre turned toward Amelie and calmly spoke. "Ms. Murray, you claim that Brendan harassed you. Do you have any concrete evidence to support your claim? How can you prove that he harassed you? If you continue making these allegations without proof, causing public outrage against us, I can sue you for slander."Amelie's expression changed, and she clenched her hand, causing her eyes to redden."So you're saying that he harassed me... but I still need to provide evidence to prove it?""Of course!" Deirdre chuckled. "In that case, I could also say that you initially seduced Brendan, but when he rejected you, you became angry and had your boyfriend insult him, leading to Brendan retaliating. In that scenario, it would be your fault, wouldn't it?"Brendan glanced at Deirdre sideways, surprised that she had accidentally revealed the truth.Amelie looked flustered upon hearing

Amelie felt a mix of extreme embarrassment and anger after being scolded. "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't know you at all, and no one seduced you!"Gossip started spreading among the onlookers. Frustrated, Amelie stomped her feet and shouted, "Show me the evidence! Otherwise, I will sue you for slander!"Brendan spoke up unexpectedly at that moment as the man and the woman exchanged glances. "I have the evidence."Amelie and Logan looked at Brendan in disbelief. He retrieved his phone from his pocket and played a recording."Ammy, it seems your charm didn't work this time. Didn't you assure me that you could win him over? Looks like you failed."Right from the start, I fell in love with your girlfriend. She's beautiful, pure, and has a hint of allure... I'm head over heels for her!"Of course, my girlfriend is equally stunning, so you won't lose out on this deal. By the way, your girlfriend is pregnant, right? I noticed she's quite slim, but her belly has grown a bi
