Chapter 239 Familiar–Looking Woman
It was Brendan’s first time relenting and giving her permission to go out.
Deirdre’s empty eyes were glistening with a glint. Brendan said, “Sam won’t be coming, so only both of you are going Remember to be back before six and don’t catch a cold.”
“Alright.” Deirdre was delighted. “We will be back soon.”
“Hmm.” Brendan was done with his breakfast, so he was preparing to leave. He tossed an ATM card to Deirdre before he left. “There are four million dollars in the card, so there should be more than enough to cover the expenditure for both of you today. Call me if it’s not enough. You know my number.”
“It’s fine…” Deirdre swallowed her words after blurting out her rejection.
They were a married couple now, so it was very normal for Brendan to give money to his wife for shopping. If she were to reject him, it would make them appear estranged and stir up Ophelia’s suspicion easily.
“Alright.”
Brendan did not speak more but left with Sam.
Deirdre and Maeve waited until the weather was warmer before they hailed a cab and headed out. It was already noon by now, and the sun was warm. Deirdre shut her eyes, feeling comfortable as she basked under the sunlight.
She savored the feeling of freedom that she longed for with her mother by her side. An absurd thought suddenly came into her mind at that very moment.
‘It seems rather great…if this situation can continue on.”
“Deirdre.” Maeve approached her smilingly. “Are you tired?”
Deirdre opened her eyes, but the world was still pitch black. However, her slow, numb heart began to pump in a lively manner.
She chuckled and shook her head. “No. I feel that the weather is pretty nice today. It’s warm, and I really
like it.”
Maeve helped to smoothen her messy hair and said, “We shall come here to get some sun later, but we have something else important on hand. Is there anything that you want to buy?”
“Clothes.”
Maeve said, “What type of clothes are you looking for?”
