Chapter 790 The Brighthalls Need an Heir

Deirdre jerked her head up when she heard what Brendan said.

Unfortunately, she could not see the expression on Brendan’s face. After a while, she scoffed. “Brendan, do you think it’s fun playing me like this?”

She might have believed in him if he had said the same thing to her five years ago.

She would have been so happy that she could not fall asleep and that she would feel that she was the happiest woman in the world. However, after everything that happened…

She just felt a surge of chill coursing through her body.

“I-”

‘That’s enough.” Deirdre lowered her head, her face emotionless. She was too exhausted to continue this farce with Brendan. “What do you want from me? Just tell me honestly.”

‘If I give him what he wants, he’ll let me go, right?’

Brendan could not see through her expression either. It was also because of the apathetic expression on Deirdre’s face that he felt a sting in his heart.

She did not look happy when he said he loved her. Instead, she avoided him like he was a monster.

When the thought surfaced in his head, a glint of darkness flitted across Brendan’s eyes as a scornful smile appeared on his face.
