Chapter 658 Why Are You Crying âI donât owe you anything, and you shouldnât come to me eitherâ¦â
Brendan never thought that a sentence from him like that would deal such a blow to him.
His eyes reddened as he said, âWhat if I say⦠What if I say that I didnât know anything about what happened to you in prison?â
âWhat?â Deirdre frowned blankly, and it took a long time before she could speak.
âBrendan, I donât know why you are asking such a question. But even if you didnât know, you canât change the fact. You were the one who forced me to prison and be the scapegoat. You also failed to protect my mother and made me an orphan in my early 20s.â
Deirdre counted his faults and mistakes and said calmly, âSo, even if you didnât know about it, you can never be innocent.â
âYes.â Brendan felt his heart was about to be torn apart. He smiled and nodded. âI am sorry.â
Deirdre didnât say anything else but took a deep breath. âSince you have woken up, and itâs late now, I should get going.â
âOkay.â
Deirdre walked out. The moment she stepped out of the door, Brendan suddenly called her name.
âDeirdre McKinnon!â
Her body stiffened.
âI love you.â
The door closed with a click. There was a crowd of people outside, and their voices as they talked were ringing in Deirdreâs ears as she walked in the direction of the elevator, according to her memory.
Halfway through, Sam came over.
âMiss McKinnon!â
Deirdre stopped, and Sam got before her.
When Sam saw her face, he was startled. âMiss McKinnon, why are you crying?â
Crying?
Did she?
Deirdre only felt a warm stream running down the corners of her eyes before it cooled down extremely quickly. She stretched out her hand to rub it, and her fingertips were really wet.
She didnât feel reluctant or excited. She was just feeling sad.
It was six years agoâno, to be exact, it was 12 years ago. Deirdre had been anticipating hearing the three words so much that she always looked forward to this relationship.
However, what did she get in exchange for her love?
Now that Brendan had told her he loved her, she no longer had feelings for him. In fact, she had to rely on Kyran so that she could love again.
Therefore, she could no longer respond and was unable to reciprocate Brendanâs love anymore.
âThe wind was so strong that some sand got into my eyes.â
âThe wind was strong?â
Sam was confused as he looked at the corridor surrounded by walls.
Deirdre didnât want to dwell on it and asked, âDid you drive here?â
âYes, let me send you.â
Deirdre followed Samâs figure to the car.
When they got to the airport, Sam couldnât help but ask, âIs this our last meeting?â
While suppressing his reluctance, Sam said happily before Deirdre could reply, âWe men donât say anything hypocritical. Since you are determined to let go of the past, you should start well and live a new life! If you have any difficulties, just call me anytime. Iâll offer you any help, including your finances!â
Deirdre smiled even though she knew it was impossible to call Sam again.
Since she was determined to let go of the past, she would forget everything about Brendan, including the memories. If she was to go to Germia, she would have no chance to meet Sam again.
But she would remember Samâs kindness in her heart regardless.
âYes, you too.â Deirdre smiled, âAt this age, donât focus only on your career. You should also go and get yourself a partner.â
Sam scratched his head smilingly but didnât say anything. He might need a long time before he could consider falling in love again.
