Chapter 839 Meet the Parents Brendanâs gaze dimmed when he remembered his past actions.
âI was too foolish in the past, and I wonât do it again from now on.â
Deirdre appeared to be caught in a daze for a moment. Brendan spoke in such a serious tone she had almost mistaken him for someone else. He would actually acknowledge his past foolishness. âDoesnât Brendan always act like heâs high above others and no one can compare to him? Is he pocketing his pride willingly to appease me because of the child?*
Deirdre was in disbelief.
Brendan held her hand tightly in his palm. âI know it will be very hard for you to trust me within a short period, but Iâm telling the truth. Charlene and I only bumped into each other at the entrance, and we didnât even enter the family mansion together.
After all, it would have been inappropriate for her to be there when I discussed todayâs topic of conversation with my mother.â âTopic of conversation?â
Deirdre looked up.
Brendan knew that her interest would be piqued. He looked at her for a long time before focusing on her abdomen. âI talked to my mother about your pregnancy.â
Deirdre was astounded.
Brendan inquired closely, âIf Charlene and I were visiting the family mansion together as you imagined, I must have feelings for her, so would I still talk to my mother about your pregnancy in her witness?â
As soon as those words were uttered, Deirdre was at a loss. She was under the assumption that Brendan wanted it all, that he wanted to be with Charlene, yet he wanted to stabilize her.
But if Brendan was telling the truth, why would he bring up the topic of her pregnancy?
âAre you telling the truth?â âThe whole truth.â Brendan held her head and let her feel his extended fingers in the oath hand gesture. âDeirdre, I will die a tragic death if I lie to you and wonât be able to gain your love for the rest of my life-â âThatâs enough.â
Deirdre stretched out her hand to block the manâs thin lips. Her gaze was still.
He would never gain her love.
Brendan was joyous on a rare occasion. He parted his thin lips and nibbled on the womanâs fingertip.
âYou feel for me.â
Deirdreâs ears flushed from embarrassment. She had no idea why Brendan was behaving this way.
He was cunning and hard to resist. She felt as if the temperature of his eyes would melt her if she were to come closer.
Brendan seized the opportunity to wrap his arms around her. Their breathing intertwined, and his gaze dimmed. âI know the situation is unfair to you, and that is why Iâm going to give you the outcome you deserve.â
Deirdre did not understand what Brendan was referring to when he mentioned the outcome initially.
However, the next day arrived soon, and Brendan arranged for a ride and told her to get changed.
âWhere are we going?â âThe family mansion,â Brendan said calmly despite Deirdreâs surprised expression.
âYouâre pregnant with a Brighthall, and my mother is the childâs grandmother. Youâre bound to meet my mother sooner or later. I was afraid you couldnât take it earlier, so I didnât bring this up. The top search post yesterday came at a good time to create a proper opportunity.â
âHave you lost your mind!?â Deirdre calmed down after feeling shocked. â Do you know the significance of your action?â
âYes.â Brendanâs gaze never left Deirdre for even a moment. âMy real intention is exactly as you think it is.â âAre you telling the truth?â âThe whole truth.â Brendan held her head and let her feel his extended fingers in the oath hand gesture.

âYes.â Brendanâs gaze never left Deirdre for even a moment. âMy real intention is exactly as you think it is.â
Deirdre furrowed her eyebrows and felt like she was under immense pressure. She wanted to speak, but Brendan seemed to sense that she was about to say something, so he stopped her before she could speak.
âYou donât need to tell me that youâll be leaving after the child is born. Iâm well aware that youâll be leaving for real after the child is born, and I respect your decision. However, I have the freedom to give you what I want you to have before that.â
âGive me what you want me to have?â
Deirdre was stunned.
âA proper identity for me?â
âGet changed. The car is already waiting at the door, and Iâve also notified my mother.â
