Chapter 546 | Hate Him To the Bone Brendan looked at Deirdre sharply-his gaze felt like sharp blades that cut through her skin. After a short while, he said, âNot a chance, Deirdre. Iâm the one who can end this relationship.â
After he finished speaking, he grabbed Deirdreâs wrist and threw her into the car, locking the door in the process.
Deirdre was shaking in fear as she struggled to open the door. Even though she could not see now, her nostrils were filled with Brendanâs body scent, and it sent a shiver down her spine. She could not open the door, so she curled up in a defensive position, staring fixedly at Brendan.
âWhat do you want from me, Brendan?â Her voice was shaking with fear despite her effort to force herself to calm down.
Brendan had the urge to grab her into his arms, but he knew he could not do that now.
He was Brendan, not Kyran. He had to make him look like an evil person. That was the only way to detach himself from the persona called Kyran. That way, he would not cause Deirdre to have any suspicions.
As such, he could only grab Deirdreâs face and force her to look him in the eye. Then, het said in an apathetic voice, âArenât we husband and wife? It has been half a year since we last saw each other.
Naturally, we have to find a quiet place and reminisce about the old days.â
Deirdreâs eyes were wet with tears and disgust. âI donât have anything to reminisce with you about.â
âShe really hates me to the boneâ¦â
Brendan swallowed the sadness into the pit of his stomach and went closer to her.
There wasnât much space in the car. At their current distance, Deirdre could even see the pores on his face as he said, âDeirdre, do you really hate me to the point that you donât even want to reminisce about our past with me? Donât forget that I was the only one who went around searching for you when you faked your death! I was the one who wanted you to live! Other than me, where can you find someone else so loyal to you?â
âYesâ¦â Deirdre found his statement laughable. âThatâs because you killed all those who were good to me! My mother, Sterling⦠You were the one who forced them away from me! So, do you want to force me away from you too?â
Brendan was stunned. The light in his eyes dimmed as he said, âIâve already explained it many times. I have nothing to do with the death of your mother.â
âYou have nothing to do with it?â A piercing pain shot through Deirdreâs heart. âBrendan, donât you feel ashamed of yourself at all?â
âHow dare he say that my motherâs death has nothing to do with him!?â
If he hadnât forced her to serve time in prison, she would have been by Opheliaâs side, and the latter wouldnât have fallen to her death.
He had promised her that he would protect Ophelia, but he tried to hide the fact that she was dead from her. If it werenât for other people to tell her about it, she wouldnât have known about her motherâs death.
Brendanâs face turned pale for a moment, and he said, âI admit that I did something wrong in this matter, but people canât come back from the dead. This is a fact that canât be changed. I can promise you that as long as you come back to me, Iâll do everything I can to compensate you for your loss.â
Even now, he was talking to her as if he was doing her a big favor.
Deirdre felt dizzy, and her fingers were trembling with anger.
âIt seems that you havenât changed at all, Brendan. Youâre still an arrogant and self- conceited b*stard!â
Deirdre shouted as she glared at him. âHow can you compensate me? Can you bring my mother back to life? Or can you undo everything that youâve done? You canât! Thereâs nothing you can do to compensate me! I just hope that youâll go down to h*ll!â
Her eyes were filled with hatred. It seemed to him that she really wanted him dead.
Deirdreâs words were like blades that stabbed into his heart. It was so painful that it deprived him of his ability to speak as he looked at Deirdre.
