Chapter 154 The Sins She Has Committed âCharlene! You deserve to die!â
Charlene chuckled. The curse was so gentle that she could not be bothered about it. âDeirdre, youâre very naive. How will I forgive you so easily when I hate you so much? Youâre the person who robbed me of my life!â
âRob her of her life?â
Deirdre clenched her teeth tightly. She was the one who had saved Brendan, and Charlene went under her name and took her place by undergoing plastic surgery to look like her. Now, Charlene had actually accused her openly that she robbed Charlene of her life?
âTell me, who robbed whose life off?â Deirdre spoke through her gritted teeth.
Charleneâs beautiful eyes darkened abruptly. She took a step forward and glared at Deirdre ferociously.
â Shut up! If I say that you robbed me of my life, that is the truth, then! If you have the courage to declare otherwise in Brendanâs presence, I will assure you that you wonât end up well!â
Charlene grew tired when she had her fill of complacency. She yawned gracefully and said, âHowever, since Brendan has already sent you here to preserve my reputation, I will forgive you. Still, that is under the condition that you stand in the yard outside for one night. If you can do it until tomorrow, Iâll tell Brendan that Iâm letting bygones be bygones.â
Deirdre clenched her fists tightly. âDo you think Iâll trust you again?â
Charlene sneered. âYou donât have the right to choose.â
Upon saying that, Charlene left with a gentle stance. She left Deirdre with the servants restraining her in the living room. Deirdreâs eyes were bloodshot.
However, Charlene was right about her not having the right to choose. She was a stranger in this unfamiliar location. Even if she were to turn around and leave, she would not be able to make it home, but she would still stand a chance at staying alive if she were to stay.
The servants did not procrastinate either. They left Deirdre in the yard.
The moment Deirdre went outdoors, the cold air immediately attacked her while the coldness bore into her body endlessly. Deidre could not refrain from shivering in the cold.
The servants could not withstand the cold and turned around to leave. Deirdre wrapped the clothing on her body around her tightly. She felt that she was fortunate that her senseless hands did not hurt anymore. in the cold.
She shut her eyes tightly, but her breathing grew heavier. Her head was throbbing in pain, and her mind was filled with a chaotic mess of thoughts. Deirdre thought that she might not be able to live until the next morning.
She figured that her death would be good news to everyone. She felt way too much sorrow when she thought about how Charlene and Brendan wanted her to die as soon as possible. The only person who cared about her had been forced to move away.
She wondered if she was in a disheveled state and whether it would be inappropriate for her to meet Bliss and her child in such a state.
The dizziness flooded her in waves, and she fought against it with gnashed teeth.
A servant could not bear to watch anymore when she noticed that Deirdre was almost collapsing. She noticed Charlene, but the latter could not be bothered.
Charlene said, âShe canât withstand the cold out there after such a short while?â
The servant forced a smile. âThe temperature has dropped drastically because itâs almost winter.â
Charlene did not pay attention to the servantâs remark. âShe wonât die because of the sins she has committed.â
As she was speaking, the sound of a car driving in echoed suddenly. Charlene was momentarily stunned. before tearing off her facial mask abruptly. âWhose car is that?â
âItâs so late. Other than Mr. Brighthall-â
Before the servant could finish her sentence, Charlene shoved her away and ran downstairs right away. The moment Brendan got out of the car, his gaze subconsciously landed on the figure standing by the door. It looked as if the emaciated figure would vanish in the cold wind with just a slight blow.
He walked closer and saw Deirdreâs face turned green in the cold, her soft lips losing their color. Her lips. were cracked and bleeding, and her entire body was trembling violently.
She wrapped her clothes tightly around her body with all her might but was on the verge of collapsing.
Her pale, numb face made her look no different than a corpse.
