Chapter 628 You’re Tempting Me

Even though Deirdre had expected it, her heart still sank a little when the bodyguard told her about it.

She had not expected a heartless person like Brendan to show her any compassion, but she had not expected him to leave in his car without any hesitation when she was in danger either.

‘He really is the most heartless man I’ve ever met,’ Deirdre thought as her eyes were filled with mockery.

“Okay,” she replied. “I know what kind of person Brendan is, so you can tell Mr. King. As long as he can ensure my safety, I have plenty of ways to bring him down from his throne.”

The bodyguard turned around and left. Deirdre was still sitting on the bed in the same position even when he came back from the grocery store. Her face was hidden in the shadows, so he could not see her expression right now.

He felt a little bit sorry for her, so he said in a gentle voice,” Don’t worry. As long as everything you said is true and you’re willing to cooperate with Mr. King, he won’t hurt you.”

Deirdre placed her hand on her face. No one knew if she was wiping tears off her face or just rubbing her face because she was exhausted. ‘Thank you.”

She took the paper bag from his hand and groped her way into the bathroom.

After she closed the door, the sadness and vulnerability on her face melted away, getting replaced by calmness.

It was true that she had felt hurt for a moment after Brendan’s departure, but she would never feel sad about it. She knew very well what kind of person Brendan was, so she did not expect much from him.

She had just been putting on a show for the bodyguard just now.

Regardless of how stone-hearted a man was, he would let his guard down once he saw a woman break down in grief. Once he let his guard down, even if it was just for a short period of time, she would seize the chance.

She unwrapped the tampon and put it on. Then, she moved along the wall to the window sill.

Soon, she realized with delight that there were no bars on the window. However, the window was tightly shut.

Smashing the window was so much easier than breaking the bars!

A plan appeared in Deirdre’s head almost instantly.

She pretended that nothing had happened and went to rest on her bed.

On the third day, Cillian suddenly came to the mansion and entered her room.

“Everything you said is true. Charlene isn’t in prison anymore. No wonder Brendan hooked up with another woman called Charli as soon as his ex-wife was sent to prison.”

As if he had found something, a triumphant smile appeared on Gillian’s face. “We just need to catch hold of Charli and Brendan will certainly come back to Eastgene!”

Deirdre had expected this, so she went along with Cillian and said, “Yeah, Brendan treats Charlene as though she’s his whole world. If something happened to her, he wouldn’t sit by and do nothing.”

Cillian glanced at her and said, “You’ve done well this time.”

Deirdre smiled. “Well, I’m very honest when it comes to cooperation.”

She looked stunning when she smiled. Especially now that she had gotten so much rest in the past few days that her cheeks were ruddy.

Lust was normally the next thing one considered when they were all warm and fed.

Cillian had always wanted to have a taste of Deirdre, so he decided to give in to his desire and went up to Deirdre. His breathing became labored as he pulled her hair behind her ears.

“I have to admit that Brendan really has a good eye for women. You and Charlene are both beautiful, but you have the same style too. You both have an innocent vibe, but you have some kind of determination in your eyes. I really want to have a taste.”

He leaned over Deirdre and dismissed the bodyguard.

Deirdre slipped her finger into the blanket, and just as Cillian was about to kiss her, she said, “Mr. King, I’m on my period.”

Cillian froze. His face sank, and he asked in disbelief,” Really?”

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask the two men over there,” Deirdre said calmly
