Leave It to Me
“I have her photo, and I can confirm that it is not photoshopped. However, the plastic surgery
techniques are advanced these days, and it is not utterly impossible to find one or two women that look
like Ophelia in all of Berth.
“I was afraid of giving you false hope only to disappoint you again, so I could only figure out a way to
trace Ophelia’s whereabouts, yet I didn’t expect that…”
Brendan did not finish his sentence, but Deirdre was well aware of what it was.
He did not expect that she would be triggered by Charlene and push Charlene down the stairs.
In truth, Deirdre was well aware that Charlene was mostly provoking her, but she could not care about
that anymore at the time. If Charlene was the enemy who killed her mother, it would be her only chance
to avenge her mother.
Deirdre was having a hard time processing the information, but Brendan’s sincere words did not sound
like a lie.
“Brendan… Will I still be able to trust you one last time?”
Brendan’s dimmed, dark eyes lit up with a tinge of hopefulness. He looked at the woman before him,
and his lips trembled. He inhaled a deep breath strenuously.
“I know what you’re worried about. You’re worried that my goal is the child in your womb. Don’t worry.”
Brendan shut his eyes and opened them again in a determined manner. “When the child is born, you
can leave with the child. I would just like to take a glance at the baby, and that will be enough for me.”
Deirdre raised her head in surprise upon hearing that and clutched the hem of her top in her clenched
fists out of astonishment. She could not see Brendan’s face clearly, but she could feel the man’s
determination, seriousness, and sternness from the ambiance.
Brendan smiled. “My initial goal was to keep you company for a little while longer. If you insist on
leaving, I won’t separate you from your biological child, of course.”
He said, “Deirdre, if that person is not your mother, Ophelia, Charlene will most certainly be your
mother’s killer. Would you be willing to go to prison so that your mother’s killer remains at large?”
Deirdre clenched her fists tightly.
She was struck by the remark. She had no hope left in Brendan, indeed, and she knew that there was
no way to get rid of him, so she chose to go to the extremes.
However, if there was real evidence that showed that Ophelia was possibly still alive, Deirdre wanted to
go after the possibility.
If Ophelia was dead, Deirdre wanted to see Charlene face the consequences with her own eyes.
‘Yet, I’ve already pleaded guilty.”
Brendan replied with a smile when he noticed that Deirdre was becoming flexible. “Leave it to me…”
The visitation ended, and Brendan walked out of the detention center. He toppled to the ground as
soon as he walked outside.
When he woke up, he was in the hospital and had an intravenous drip in his hand.
Declan was making a call when he heard the commotion and turned around. ‘You’re awake, huh?”
He served a glass of water, and Brendan took a few sips. He said with furrowed eyebrows, “What
happened to me?” “Gastritis. Your gastritis has flared up because you don’t eat or rest normally.
However, it is good that it’s just gastritis. Otherwise, it would be bad if you fell ill during a crucial
moment like this.”
It seemed that his condition was not considered too severe. Otherwise, Declan would not be joking
anymore.
Brendan massaged his temples because his head was throbbing. He rested for a while before he
asked, “How long have I been out?” “About a day and a half.” “How about Deirdre?”
Declan said smilingly, “Don’t worry. She has withdrawn her guilty plea according to your method. She
claimed that she was in a poor mental state. In addition, she is pregnant, so the police gave her some
time.”
Brendan nodded. “I just want to get this over with quickly. Her body is weak, and the environment of the
detention center is poor. She will catch a cold easily and get sick.”
Declan smiled as he said, “I understand, and I’ve already arranged for my people to visit the police
center.”
