Chapter 548 How Long Can You Keep Her in the Dark?
The first thing Deirdre did after returning to her room was to go into the restroom and wash her face.
Her consciousness finally returned a little bit under the stream of cold water. However, the heavy weight on her chest still made her unable to breathe.
She was very grateful for Declan’s timely arrival, which saved her from Brendan’s hands. Otherwise, she might not have been able to get away from him.
She picked up her phone. At that moment, she just wanted to listen to Kyran’s voice.
Declan sent Deirdre back to the mansion and left. A black car was waiting outside when he
came out.
He walked over, opened the door, and sat on the passenger’s seat. Brendan was smoking the third cigarette, and he looked haggard. After taking one last drag of his cigarette, he asked, “Is Deirdre okay?”
“Are you sure you want to know the truth?” replied Declan, smiling bitterly. “How is there any possibility that she’ll be fine after running into you? She looked somehow unhinged and nearly passed out.”
It went without saying that Brendan was well aware of this. It was just that he still felt a sharp pain in his chest when he heard what Declan said.
“I finally understand why you refuse to appear in front of Deirdre as Brendan,” said Declan. She’s so scared of you. Even if you’re Kyran, she might not be able to forgive you.”
Brendan closed his eyes. “I’ve been trying my best to hide my identity from her. Luckily, I didn’t say I was Kyran before my identity was exposed. If not…”
He would not dare to imagine the consequences…
After a short while of silence, Declan said, “Are you planning to keep her in the dark forever? Instead of using your own name, you used a fake identity just to be with Deirdre?”
“Do you think I have another choice?”
Declan was stumped.
No, he didn’t have another choice.
Brendan had hurt Deirdre so much to the point she would never forgive him for the rest of her life. Therefore, he could only try to compensate her and redeem himself through a new identity.
