Chapter 780: Chapter 781

Chapter 781 You Told Brendan!?

Deirdre took a deep breath.

She did not expect Brendan to tell Julia everything. After all, he was the one who loathed their relationship the most.

“Julia… Please calm down first. I’ll explain to you.”

“Of course, you have to explain to me,” Julia said, her eyes widening.” That’s why I’m here! Why did you leave Brendan for this guy?”

“No… You’ve got it wrong…” Deirdre let out a bitter smile. She was never the one who left Brendan. He was the one who had abandoned her.

‘This is a bit complicated, so I’ll make it simple for you. Long story short, we don’t love each other anymore. If you have been paying attention to Brendan, you should know that he already has a fiancee, and her name is Charli McKinsey.

“We were indeed married before, but we’ve already gotten a divorce. He and Charli are the ones who really love each other. He cares about me because I’m pregnant. He wants my child, and that’s something I won’t let happen again.”

“Again?”

Deirdre gnashed her teeth and continued painfully. “My first child was dead before it was born, and he’s the one who caused it!”

Julia was stunned, her eyes wide in disbelief, “How… How is that possible? That’s your child! Why would he do that to you?”

‘That’s because he loves Charli, so he has to get rid of my child,” replied Deirdre. “If you don’t believe in me, you can go ask your grandfather or just ask around. Brendan had a fiancee three years ago. If she’s his fiancee, who do you think I’m to him?

Julia did not expect the whole thing to be so complicated. She pulled her phone out and decided to confirm the authenticity of Deirdre’s story herself. She came from Neve, so she had some friends there. She was dumbfounded when she got the same answer as what Deirdre told her.

“If Brendan doesn’t love you anymore, then why is he doing this?”

“I don’t know. Maybe he needs an heir.”

It did not seem to Julia that Deirdre was lying. However, when she thought of how much Brendan loved Deirdre through his words, she became confused again and said, “But… It seems to me that Brendan loves you very much…”

“But he loves another woman at the same time as well. Would you accept a man like that?”

Julia was rendered speechless. Then, her face suddenly turned pale as she said, “Oh gosh! I think I’ve done something wrong!”

Deirdre’s brain went blank after she heard what Julia said. Before she could do anything, someone knocked on the door urgently.

Her heart sank, and she grabbed at Julia’s sleeve. “Julia, you told Brendan!?”

“… I…” Julia stammered. “I just told him I’d let him know after getting an explanation from you. But I didn’t realize that he’s been following me…”

Deirdre was stunned. A shiver rushed down her spine, and her blood turned cold. As she listened to the series of knocking on the door that was getting heavier and heavier, her face turned bloodless, and she stood frozen stiff.

“I didn’t know about it… I thought you were lying to me, so I was angry! I didn’t do it on purpose!” Julia said nervously, “What about this? I’ll go open the door and stall him off to buy you some time. Maybe Brendan will believe in me. I won’t tell him that you’re here.”

Deirdre clenched her fists tightly. That was the only way now. She rushed back to her own room. The knocking on the door continued, and it sounded like the death knell from hell.

Julia gulped and went over to hold the handle, “Coming,” she said and opened the door. As soon as the door was opened, a figure rushed in.
