Chapter 787 Take Me With You

Brendan flew into a rage when Tobey mentioned their first kid, and he glared at him coldly.

Deirdre felt that something was not right, but it was too late for her to say anything.

The bodyguard beside Tobey turned around and gave him a kick in his stomach. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

As a well-trained bodyguard, it went without saying that he would not go easy on

Tobey. Tobey curled his body up and grunted in pain.

‘Tobey!” Deirdre wanted to rush over to Tobey’s side, but Brendan did not give her a chance. He grabbed her tightly into his arms-his expression was dark, and his gaze ablaze with anger.

Deirdre could not break herself free from Brendan, so she just looked over in Tobey’s direction and asked, ‘Tobey, are you all right?”

Tobey forced down the pain and said, “I’m okay, Deirdre. We don’t have to be scared of him. So what if he’s the great Brighthall? Can he kill me?”

Brendan let out a cold smirk and said, ’Tobey, I’m sure you’re well aware of the condition in this place, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have brought Deirdre here. It’s a lawless place where even the police can’t do anything if a crime takes place here. Do you think I really won’t just kill you here?”

Before Tobey could say anything, the bodyguard kicked him again, causing him to wince in pain. “Who do you think you are? How can you talk like that with Mr. Brighthall?”

The bodyguard raised his fist and hit Brendan again and again mercilessly.” That’s enough! Stop!” shouted Deirdre.

However, the bodyguard paid Deirdre no mind. She turned her head around and looked at Brendan, her eyes red around the rims. ‘Tell them to stop! If you let Tobey go, I’ll go with you.”

Brendan squinted and raised his hand. The bodyguard stopped, and it took Tobey a while to fight back the pain. “Deirdre, don’t care about me! You can’t go with him. Someone must’ve called the cops by now. Brendan is powerless in Surstate. We can’t let him have his way!” he said.

Deirdre closed her eyes slowly. When she opened them again, she said, * Tobey, go back to your mother. I’m sure she’s very worried about you now. You have to go back and comfort her.”

“Deirdre?”

“After that, you should go back to your work. I’m sure your company will want you back, considering your ability. Take your mother with you and go back to Eastgene. I wish you the best in your future.”

Tobey’s eyes were filled with despair, and his voice cracked. “Deirdre-”

Deirdre turned her face sideways and said, “Take me away.”

Her voice was thick with exhaustion. She had been running away from Brendan for half a month, yet she returned to the starting point in the end. It was as if nothing had changed.

Looking at her expression, Brendan felt as if there was a hole in his heart. The feeling of pain was gushing out of the hole, and he could not stop it no matter how hard he tried. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his face was filled with disappointment.

She could sacrifice herself for Tobey and Sterling, but she had never once looked him squarely in the eyes.

Brendan grabbed her wrist tightly and dragged her out of the clinic into his car.

After flinging her into the car, he went inside as well and grabbed her chin. He kissed her violently as if he was trying to vent all his anger on her through the kiss.

Deirdre closed her eyes. She had never felt so humiliated before since she could not feel anything from this kiss. She tried to push him away, but Brendan ended the kiss just as she raised her arm. He looked at her fixedly. His eyes were red around the rims, while his gaze was filled with affection and a trace of resentment.

“Why?” He asked painfully, “Why do you want to do that? That’s your baby, Deirdre!”

“Because it’s your baby, too,” Deirdre replied calmly.

She wanted to abandon everything related to him, including their baby.

‘You’re going to get rid of the baby even if it means you can’t have babies anymore in the future?” growled Brendan.

Deirdre was stunned slightly, but she soon came around to her senses. The fact that Brendan could find her meant that he must have investigated her thoroughly.
