Chapter 868 Interview

“However, I’m quite curious how you managed to convince Miss McKinnon to the point she is willing to follow your instruction to withdraw her guilty plea.”

Brendan looked at the dripping intravenous drip and said calmly, “I told her the truth. I told her everything without holding back anything.”

Declan was surprised. “Is that so? In truth, you should have done that from the start. However, you’re always carrying burdens by yourself. I find it quite surprising that you would choose to tell Miss McKinnon and let her share your burden… It seems that she is really important to you.”

Brendan cracked a smile. The answer was obvious without the need to speak.

Declan could not help feeling envious. ‘When will I have a relationship like this? It’s a waste that this relationship is too heavy and risky.”

Brendan thought about all sorts of things that happened between him and Deirdre.

He used to think that relationships were troublesome in the past. He cared about Charlene, but he knew deep down that he felt responsible toward Charlene most of the time. He had only realized that a relationship was not that bad after building a relationship with Deirdre.

Just as they were looking at each other, the room door opened heavily all of a sudden.

Brendan raised his head and found Sam breathing heavily at the door.

Declan asked smilingly, “What’s going on? What’s so urgent?”

Sam pursed his lips and did not say anything, but he turned on the television immediately.

Declan’s expression was not as relaxed, and his smile had vanished.” Charlene is very intelligent and is using public opinion to her advantage.”

Brendan brought up his social media on his phone and found that it was filled with posts berating Deirdre.

The posts claimed that Deirdre’s elder cousin was a murderer while she was a mad woman.

In fact, some extremists had even threatened the Brighthall Group through their official websites and claimed that Deirdre must be sent to prison. Otherwise, they would boycott the Brighthall Group’s products.

Public opinion swayed instantly, and there was no way to suppress it.

Sam received a call soon afterward and told Brendan, “The police are not willing to release Miss McKinnon on bail anymore. They claimed it must be Charlene who drops the charges, or there must be stronger evidence. Otherwise, you will see Miss McKinnon in court.”
