Chapter 182 She’s Dead, Right
“I have something important to attend to. Postpone the meeting!”
Sam was stunned, and his face turned pale. “Mr. Brighthall! You’ve been after this project for more than six months…”
“I said, postpone it! Get me flight tickets immediately! We’re going back to Neve!”
Sam had also noticed that something was off. “What’s going on in Neve?”
“Deirdre is threatening to commit suicide on the third floor of the villa.”
He wanted to hop on a flight to return to Neve, but doing so was not as simple as he thought it would be. There was no available flight now, and the earliest flight would take off at midnight.
He would need to wait five more hours.
Forget about five hours. Deirdre might not necessarily be able to withstand three hours in the cold wind given her health condition.
Brendan could only arrange for a private jet, so more than two hours had already passed by the time he arrived in Neve. He ran through all the red lights on the way home and found the woman’s emaciated. figure on the third floor when he reached the courtyard.
Her white dress was blowing in the wind, her eyes were shut, and her face was ghastly pale and numb from the cold. However, she kept her body stubbornly still.
Brendan felt his back get drenched in cold sweat and went running upstairs, gritting his teeth. He bumped into Dr. Ginger and grabbed his shoulders tightly while he roared in a rage, “What the heck is wrong with you! You actually allowed her to go to the third floor?!”
Dr. Ginger was almost in tears. “I didn’t know that there was such a dangerous spot on the third floor…”
“Why don’t you pull her off the ledge then? Can’t you handle a blind person?”
Dr. Ginger pulled a long face. “I tried to, but Ms. McKinnon’s hearing is very sensitive. She would pull. herself forward whenever I tried to move closer to her, so how could I dare pull her off the ledge?!”
Brendan’s head was dizzy from anger, and his body broke out in a layer of thin sweat.
“Deirdre, you’ll stop at nothing, huh? You’re not even scared of death, huh?”
He ran upstairs to the third-floor room and, from his point of view, there was only blue sky in front of the woman. Brendan had no idea if it was due to the strong, cold wind in the surroundings but he shuddered in the cold involuntarily.
“Deirdre” He was about to lose his temper. “Get away from there!”
