Chapter 538 Get A Lawyer Kyranâs face turned white. âGet back to Neve first.â
He couldnât ignore it when Madame Brighthall had fallen ill.
Sam nodded and started driving without a word, not even asking anything about Deirdre.
That night, Deirdre couldnât sleep well.
She didnât know whether it was because of Kyranâs departure, but she dreamed of Brendan again for the first time in a while.
In the dream, Brendan was as indifferent as before. He grabbed her neck tightly, asking her why she accused Charlene.
Struggling, she replied with her eyes reddened, âItâs your Charlene who wanted to kill me! Brendan Brighthall, you are so blind that you canât even see the truth lies before you!â
âShe is the only one I acknowledge as my woman. She kidnapped you because you deserve it! As for your life and death, what does it have to do with me? I canât let you win this time. Iâll make sure you lose the lawsuit!â said Brendan condescendingly.
Deirdre woke up, still experiencing the lingering feeling of suffocation in her neck. She had an inexplicable premonition that this dream seemed to tell her the choice Brendan would make next.
Charlene would be desperate when she couldnât find Maeve and might seek help from Brendan.
Charlene was the person who would rather die than go to prison. Hence, Deirdre wondered whether Brendan would cover up for Charlene regardless of the truth.
Moreover, she and Brendan had yet to divorce officially.
Deirdre felt a headache.
When she got downstairs, she saw Declan had just come back. Declan also saw Deirdre and greeted her politely.
Even though he sounded laughing, he couldnât hide his exhaustion. It was obvious that he didnât have time to rest all night.
Deirdre immediately asked Declan to go back to rest. However, before Declan entered his room, Deirdre couldnât help asking, âMr. King, do you know any lawyer?â
âYes.â Declan asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Deirdre didnât want Declan and Kyran to know about her marital status. She was afraid she would feel shameful when they learned that she, a married lady, had actually agreed to be with Kyran.
âWell, itâs about Charleneâs case. I wish to know more about the chances of winning this case when itâs brought to court.â
âOh, I see.â Declan didnât think much and agreed. âIâll get you one when I wake up tomorrow.â
âThank you.â
The first thing Declan did when he woke up was to contact a lawyer for Deirdre. Following that, he gave Deirdre the number during the meal.
âMiss McKinnon, just contact this number directly if you have any questions. This lawyer is very well-
known in their field.â
While memorizing the number, Deirdre asked, âHowâs Kyran there?â
It had been more than ten hours since Kyran didnât contact her. She dared not call because she was afraid she might disturb him. At the same time, she couldnât help but worry. She was worried about Kyranâs fatherâs condition and that Kyran would be too busy that he would overlook his own health.
Declanâs expression changed, and he sighed softly.
Upon hearing the sigh, Deirdreâs face turned white. âWhatâs wrong?â
Declan hurriedly replied, âNo worries, Miss McKinnon. Kyran i-is still dealing with it. His father has always been weak. In fact, I canât manage to contact him either. But I think heâs gotten out of the plane and is rushing toward the hospital. I think he will call you after he has settled down.â
âHmmâ¦â
Deirdre nodded. She knew she shouldnât overthink, so she rose to her feet and cleaned the table.
As Declan didnât have much time to stay in the mansion, he drove out soon after the meal.
Deirdre cleaned the living room again and again alone before she could remember the phone number of that lawyer.
