Chapter 918 Discovered Deirdre was stunned for a while, feeling touched.
Other than Madame Brighthall, Mrs. Engel was the only one who treated her well.
Deirdre let Mrs. Engel in before she sat on the chair. As Deirdre smelled the aroma of the stuffed vegetables, she began to feel hungry and started nibbling.
Mrs. Engel couldnât stay idle and began cleaning. Suddenly, she saw a manâs shirt, which had just been taken off in the bathroom.
Startled, she picked it up and saw that it was the one Brendan had been wearing earlier.
While eating, Deirdre didnât hear any sound from Mrs. Engelâs movements.
Hence, she lifted her head and asked, âMrs. Engel, whatâs wrong?â
Mrs. Engel came to her senses and tossed the shirt aside.
âNothing. Iâm just tired from cleaning and need to rest against the wardrobe for a while.â Mrs. Engel changed the subject and asked, âMrs. Brighthall, howâs the taste of the stuffed vegetables this time?â
âThey are very delicious, just like the taste of my hometown,â replied Deirdre, finishing her meal.
Mrs. Engel was pleased and said, âYou finished the whole bowl! Iâll make it for you again next time.â
Deirdre nodded and smiled in reply, while Mrs. Engel couldnât help but take a glance at the wardrobe before she picked up the empty bowl and said,â Mrs. Brighthall, since you have finished the stuffed vegetables, Iâll excuse myself to continue with my work downstairs.â âSure.â
When Mrs. Engel left, Brendan eagerly emerged from the wardrobe, held, and kissed Deirdreâs hand.
Deirdre was shocked and shoved him. âAre you crazy? What will we do if Mrs. Engel hasnât left and heard us?â
Recalling Mrs. Engelâs glance, Brendan glanced at his shirt on the floor and assured Deirdre while rubbing her thumb. âDonât worry. She has noticed us.â
Deirdre was stunned.
Because Mrs. Engel had noticed them, Brendan became bolder, often going to the kitchen and embracing Deirdreâs waist intimately when Deirdre was cooking.
Mrs. Engel had to remind them to behave by greeting Charlene loudly. âOh, Miss McKinney, you are here!â
Only then would Brendan release Deidre and go out of the kitchen alone.
Charlene didnât focus on Deirdre at all because she was entirely focused on getting pregnant. She waited eagerly for two weeks at the hospital to check for pregnancy.
However, despite her efforts, the result was unsuccessful.
Charlene was extremely disappointed and frustrated. Even though Brendan was no longer into Deirdre, the latter was bearing his child. Hence, she was afraid that Brendan might fall in love with Deirdre again if Deirdre were to allure him.
After all, Deirdre was getting more and more beautiful. This threatened Charlene, who had decided to take action.
She went to a private clinic, paid the doctor secretly to take an ovulation injection to stimulate ovulation, and purchased some special drugs. She was determined to conceive a male child this time.
After the injection, Charlene stood by the roadside, wanting to call Brendan. However, before she could call him, a car stopped in front of her.
The moment Charlene saw the car, her face turned pale immediately.
She boarded the car and was taken to a room. Panicking, she reported,â Sir, Iâve almost ruined the relationship between Brendan and Deirdre. Deirdre is bearing a girl instead of a boy, so Brendan was very unhappy and slept with me. Iâm working hard to achieve our mutual goal. Provided I can bear a boy, Brendan will not only marry me, but he will also give me all his possessions!â
Raising his brows, the man asked, âSo, this is the reason you took an ovulation injection?â âYes!â
Charlene nodded immediately. âThe possibility of pregnancy is too low with just one time of sex. So, I plan to do it again. If I can bear a male child this time, Brendan will accept me completely!â
