Chapter 611 We Can't Go Back to How We Were Anymore
"You're talking about Joy? She's fine...” "I'm talking about you," Deirdre said sternly as she looked at her. "Are you all right?"
Laura was stunned for a moment, and understanding soon dawned on her. While she was surprised, she gulped hard and said,
"Thank you for your concern, Miss McKinnon, but I... I'm fine. He just has a short temper. But he's actually very nice to me.”
"He's nice to you?" Deirdre fell silent for a moment and asked, "Is this the answer from your heart, Ms. Smith?"
Laura was stumped. Seizing the chance while she was tongue-tied, Deirdre said, "Ms. Smith, I don't know what made you give up on Declan and choose Cillian. But I really want to tell you that if you're willing to wait for Declan, he still loves you and will accept you. However, the premise is that you have to come to your senses and help him."
A surge of emotions flitted across Laura's eyes as she couldn't help herself and asked, "What's your relationship to Decky, Miss McKinnon?"
"I’m just his friend.”
“Just friend?"
Deirdre smiled. “Of course. Don’t worry. We're just friends and nothing else.
I just came here this time to help him solve his problem at the party."
"I see...” Laura let out a sigh of relief. After that, she smiled mockingly and said, "But I'm sorry, Miss McKinnon. There's no way for Decky and me to go back to how we were anymore."
‘Why?"
Brendan smiled lightly and replied, "Yeah. Since Mr. King made the call and invited me here, I figured that I should come. After all, it has been a long time since the last time I came here.”
"Yeah. You need to come more often in the future. We used to be very close in the past. If Declan hadn't fallen out with-" Mr. King Sr. thought of something and frowned. "Anyway, let's not talk about him. It'll only be a waste of time. You're Miss McKinnon, right?"
Mr. King Sr. turned around and looked at Deirdre. Deirdre smiled at him and nodded. "Yes."
He nodded in satisfaction and commented, “As expected of the woman Brendan loves. I still can’t forget what happened back then. Not only were you able to see the situation clearly, but you were able to expose that woman's lie and helped us to maintain our reputation. You've done us a great favor."
‘That's right." Mrs. King came over. She had lost the impatience that she had during the party. She looked as if she liked Deirdre very much and said, "If it hadn't been for you, we would've become the laughingstock of the city. I bought this several years ago, and I couldn't bring myself to put it on. And today, I finally found the most suitable person to wear it."
She was holding a bracelet in her hand as she handed it to Deirdre. Deirdre said, "Madam, I can't take it. This is too much." "It's fine. Just take it."
