Chapter 721 Switched
Deirdre nodded while Tobey came back to the point of the conversation by saying,
“You sought my help yesterday, but you haven’t managed to tell me what sort of help
you need.”
Deirdre’s breathing felt much heavier upon hearing that. She clutched a book she held
tightly.
“Tobey, please don’t be too surprised by what I’m about to tell you.”
“What’s going on?”
Deirdre regulated her breathing for a while. “It’s possible that my mother is still alive.”
Tobey’s eyes were filled with disbelief upon hearing that.
Deirdre continued. “I’m unable to explain this matter fully. All in all, I wasn’t with my
mother during her death, and I only found out about her death after a long time. I
gradually accepted the information, but then this photo came.
She pulled the photo out of the book. “My friend told me that the person in this photo
looks about 70% similar to me and about my mother’s age. Can you please help me
to take a look if it’s her?”
Tobey’s expression turned serious as he took the photo.
Deirdre could not help feeling anxious. Every breath she took felt extremely heavy.
She would fight Brendan if Ophelia was still alive.
In the end, Tobey folded the photo and said, “Deirdre, I apologize that I have to be the
bad person in this scenario. The woman in the photo is not Mrs. McKinnon.”
Glenna passed the photocopied photo to Declan.
Declan threw away the cigarette butt and tore up the photo into shreds before saying
gently, “Glenna, thank you for your willingness to follow my instruction to edit the
photo into someone else.”
‘You don’t have to thank me because I didn’t do it for you.” Glenna’s eyes were tainted
with conflicting emotions, and she asked with a ghastly pale face, “Are you sure that
“I won’t. I might deceive anyone to achieve my goal, but I’ll never deceive you.”
Declan’s eyes and eyebrows were smiling, and his beautiful eyes were slightly raised,
making him appear affectionate. Perhaps it was precisely due to this reason that no
one knew about this icy cold, reckless heart that he kept hidden.
Glenna smirked in self-mockery and turned around in preparation to leave.
Declan said calmly, “Glenna, what I said still counts. If you still intend to be with me,
feel free to come and meet me anytime. Even though I can’t give you sincere feelings,
I can still take care of you as your identity deserves.”
He had almost etched the words ‘I don’t love you’ into his remark.
Glenna almost felt faint. She turned her head to look at him and had difficulty
suppressing the emotions in her chest. She clenched her fists tightly and asked,
“What do you mean by you can’t give me sincere feelings, but you can still take care
of me as my identity deserves?”
