Chapter 62 Found a Scapegoat
Deirdre wanted to laugh. “You’re going to say that I’m wrongly accusing her. Fine
then. I’m tired. You should leave.”
‘Here it goes again.”
Brendan was furious.
‘Have I not done enough for Deirdre? I called Charlene over to the office and questioned her without definite evidence when Charlene was supposed to be the
person I cherished the most. I doubted her for Deirdre. What else does she want me
to do?’
“Don’t push it, Deirdre. It is my bad for not preventing you from nearly being poisoned indeed. However, you can blame it on me, not on Charlene!”
Deirdre chuckled.
‘How could I ever have the audacity to do that? I can’t blame it on anyone because I’m just a powerless, blind person.’
Deirdre did not wish to speak anymore, so she shut her eyes and pulled up the
blanket to rest.
Brendan left angrily after being ignored by Deirdre, and his departure startled Sam. Brendan was emotionally unstable, with extremely drastic mood swings, and had been like this ever since Deirdre had come into his life in the past.
Brendan did not show up for a long time after this incident but he hired a caregiver to care for Deirdre on a daily basis.
Charlene called out, “Yikes! Ms. McKinnon, don’t throw around accusations like that. We looked into this incident and found the culprit. They have already been dealt with according to the law.”
“Brendan is the only one who believed your crude lie. That person and I are not bound by enmity, so why would she risk her life in exchange for possibly silencing me? You’re the one who found herself a scapegoat!”
Charlene beamed in delight and made her way to Deirdre. She looked down at her and dropped the act. “Yes, I did find myself a scapegoat indeed, but what can you do about that? If Brendan believed you, you wouldn’t have been reduced to what you are now.”
Deirdre was rendered speechless. Charlene’s true nature was obvious, yet Brendan still chose to ignore it. He was truly blinded by love, just like she had been in the past.
“Why?” Deirdre clenched her fists tightly. She could still remember the pain she had felt when the poison had been forced down her throat. even though her throat had already recovered fully. “I’m already in this state, yet you still won’t let me off, huh?”
Deirdre clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh.
‘Yes, she’s already in this state. She looks hideous and disgusting, yet she still manages to captivate Brendan’s heart even under the circumstances!’
