Chapter 757 Forget Everything and Restart

‘Well, there’s nothing to cry about. We’re just hiding temporarily, not forever. When

Brendan gives up, I’ve enough experience to work in a big company. This job that I found pays daily, and it’s an opportunity for me to gain experience. Hence, I think it’s quite good.”

Although Tobey said it was quite good, Deirdre didn’t think so. She knew how tough it was to work at a construction site. She thought the job might be suitable only for a middle-aged man without a degree who had never enjoyed a good life.

However, Tobey was still young. He used to be a manager with an annual salary of more than 100,000 dollars in a national company, yet he had to lower his status to work under someone else.

She thought it was ridiculous.

However, she had no right to say no because Tobey was the one who had to support their daily lives.

Swallowing back her tears, she washed the apples in the bag. When she handed Tobey one, he said, “Don’t pressure yourself, Deirdre. In fact, I do enjoy my current life.”

Deirdre nodded and took a small bite.

Tobey finished eating the apple quickly and went to take a shower. It was during this moment that his phone rang.

“Tobey, your phone is ringing!”

Due to the noise of water in the bathroom, Tobey didn’t seem to have heard Deirdre.

Deirdre thought of taking the phone to Tobey, but she accidentally pressed on accepting the call.

‘Tobey! You better tell me frankly what’s wrong with you! I received a call from your company’s superior that you’ve abruptly resigned and couldn’t be contacted. And you changed a new phone number! Did you offend anyone?”

Deirdre was startled, and Tobey came out of the bathroom the next moment. “Deirdre, what did you say?”

Before Deirdre could reply, Madame Russell shrieked, “Deidre? You’re with Deirdre!”

Deirdre was at a loss. “I didn’t pick it up on purpose.” “No worries.” Tobey got the phone, lowered his voice volume, and talked on the balcony. Deirdre’s mind was in a complete mess.

Tobey explained after ending the call, “Deirdre, don’t think too much. I didn’t tell my mother because she’s been living in Village Alnwick throughout her life. Thus, she has no idea about how powerful some people can be. She would only report to the police if I were to tell her.

“Moreover, I need to hide the truth from her because she can’t accept that I’m taking you away with me.” “Understood.”

Deirdre was merely surprised that Madame Russell knew nothing, and at the same time, she felt guilty for troubling Tobey. “If you hadn’t come with me, you’d have a better life,” said Deirdre, smiling.

Upon hearing Deirdre, Tobey merely pointed at her forehead. “Don’t mention it. I’d only regret it if I let you stay by Brendan’s side. I admit that I’m quite tired, but I’m happy. I’m your brother, so you can just see me as your family member. As for my mother, she’ll understand it gradually. But let me first settle down before I get her here.”

Deirdre nodded. What was done couldn’t be undone. Hence, she didn’t want to say anything depressing.

‘Then go and rest first.” “What about you?”

Deirdre stood up. “I’ll take a shower.”

Tobey didn’t say anything else other than urging her to rest early and went into his room.

After Deirdre took a shower and lay on the bed, she couldn’t help but hear Brendan’s voice ringing in her ears.

His pleading voice begging her to stay.

His apologies.

In fact, when Deirdre had just gotten to Surstate, she often dreamed of Brendan. He first pleaded humbly so that she wouldn’t leave, but he later rushed into her room, grabbed her neck, and interrogated her for running away.

With a heavy feeling, she felt an intermittent pain in her lower abdomen.

While gently rubbing her abdomen, she wondered how long it would take to forget everything and start a new life.
