Chapter 439 Will You See Him Once Before the Surgery?
How Madame Brighthall was pleased and devoted to Deirdre’s previous identity felt so cynical to Deirdre.
Deirdre said, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else, Madame Brighthall. I’m Deirdre McKinnon and not Charlene McKinney.”
“I know.” Madame Brighthall’s gaze dimmed for a moment when her hands were flung away.
She then said hastily, “Brendan has already come clean to me. It was you who took care of me over the years, right? The daughter-in-law that I’m perfectly content with has always been you too. I’m sorry, Miss McKinnon. I… I was so reckless that I actually kicked you out and hurt you…”
‘Come clean?”
Deirdre felt her heart racing and felt a knot in the pit of her stomach. She said, “You shouldn’t apologize, Madame Brighthall. You didn’t do anything wrong from the start. On the contrary, I should thank you. I wouldn’t be able to leave Brendan had you not helped me. It’s a happy ending for the both of us now.”
“Is it really a happy ending?” Madame Brighthall smiled bitterly. “The biggest mistake I made in my life is letting you leave. I’ve not only put you in harm’s way but also Brendan. Do you know that Brendan has been behaving like a lost soul since you left? He went looking for you frantically, and he=”
“Madame Brighthall.” Deirdre interrupted Madame Brighthall, inhaled a deep breath, and said, “I have a boyfriend.”
A look of astonishment flashed past her eyes. “Is… Is he good to you?”
“Very good.” Deirdre lowered her eyes. Her gaze turned gentle at the very moment she thought about Kyran. “I’m already prepared to be with him, and that is why I don’t want to know anything about Brendan.”
“This is the best outcome for both of us. Otherwise, are you going to get rid of Miss McKinney, whom Brendan truly loves, because of the guilt you feel for me?”
Madame Brighthall was quiet. She was doubtful whether Charlene was the person that Brendan loved.
