Chapter 631 Bowed Down for Real

‘Tsk, tsk, tsk." Cillian tutted in a taunting manner. "If you were to come six days ago and tell me this, perhaps I might be touched by your unfaltering devotion. Yet, you've only returned after leaving Eastgene for six days. Isn't it hypocritical of you to speak like this now?”

Deirdre widened her eyes and agreed with Gillian's remark in her heart.

‘Didn't Brendan give up on me? Didn't he leave for Neve already?’ She could not understand why he was back again.

Brendan was unbothered, and his expression did not even change, but he repeated himself, "What do you want?"

Cillian was feeling slightly furious. He put out his cigarette while he sneered.

"What do I want? You beat me up violently the other day that my face was swollen for three whole days, Mr. Brighthall. I woke up in pain and lost a few teeth. I figure that I can't just endure the torment for nothing, right?” Cillian narrowed his eyes and said, "If you were to bow down to me in everyone's witness, I might consider handing Deirdre to you."

Deirdre’s pupils shook upon hearing that. She raised her head quickly.

However, she calmed down soon enough.

Brendan would never consent to such a humiliating act. Perhaps he would just turn around and leave. Since he had the courage to come alone, he had a plan to get away too.

Brendan did not even furrow his eyebrows for the slightest bit. "Will you be able to accept it if I bow to you, Mr. King?”

Cillian cracked a crafty smile and said, “You're jesting, Mr. Brighthall. I'm four years your senior, so why can't I accept your bow?

You will only need to let me know if you're willing to do so. I won't stop you from leaving even if you're unwilling to do so, just that...”

He turned his hand and grabbed Deirdre’s hair before tugging her hair upward.

The stinging pain on her scalp made her frown deeply. Cillian said provocatively, “It's just that Deirdre will be suffering today. However, I believe that you won't care about Deirdre’s survival this time too, since you didn't care about it previously, right?”

Brendan's dark eyes were staring at Gillian’s hand coldly, and his fists were tightly clenched. "Get your hands off her!"

‘You seem like you've taken pity on her.” Cillian smirked sarcastically.

It seemed that Deirdre did have a place in Brendan's heart, and he was delighted about that. Even though he could force

Brendan to bow to him, it was much more exciting for him to manipulate Brendan into bowing down to him spontaneously.

"Since you treasure her so much, why didn't you come and save her previously?”

Brendan's dark eyes were so dim that there was no way to tell his mood.

" This is none of your business.”

Gillian's smile froze for a moment before his expression soon turned scornful. He would like to see how long Brendan could uphold his pride at this critical juncture.

"Are you going to bow down, Mr. Brighthall?" He cast a look at his subordinate. The subordinate aimed the prepared camera at Brendan and waited to take photos of the scene so Cillian could upload them to his social media and show off to his friends. Brendan did not answer at once, while Deirdre was so anxious that her breathing became irregular.

‘What is going on? Why hasn't Brendan left? Since he is here alone, isn't he prepared to get away in advance?’ Her thoughts were a mess, and she heard a commotion.

Cillian applauded.

‘This is amazing! I didn't expect Mr. Brighthall to have the boldness to bow down to someone willingly for a woman!"

‘Bow down? What!?'

Deirdre’s pupils constricted, and she widened her eyes with great effort. She saw the tall outline standing at the entrance bending over without her notice.

‘Brendan has actually... bowed down for real!" Her fingers were trembling, and her eyes were filled with shock.
