Chapter 191 Not a Single Piece of Truth Has Ever Come Out of Your Mouth Feeling rage surging into his head, he said while he stared at her with cold eyes, âAre you only going to take action when youâre urged by s omeone? Donât forget that you still need something from me, so you should consider pleasing me your
utmost priority!â
Deirdre was stunned by the unexpected anger. âWhat would you like me to do then?â
âWhy are you asking me what to do? What did you do in the past when I was drunk?â
Deirdre understood the situation instantly. She took a deep breath and stretched out her hand before placing her fingertip on Brendanâs thin lips. Her fingertip glided down his
chiseled jawline to his neck before she removed his tie.
Brendanâs breathing sounded substantially smoother when Deirdre unbuttoned his shirt. Then, she took a step forward, placed her fingers on his temples, an d massaged his temples gently to relieve the headache caused by the drinking.
Brendan did not shut his eyes as he had in the past but he looked up and focused his gaze on the wom an, staring at her nonchalant face. He said in a mocking tone after a long time, âIâve never believed that oneâs intention is reflected on oneâs face, but I can confirm that it does make sense after seeing your fa ce.â Deirdreâs movements froze for a moment while Brendan sniggered. âI actually believed in you enou gh to doubt Charlene. I went to question her on purpose and looked into her whereabouts, even though I obviously knew that youâre the liar here. I actually thought it would be fine to believe you again. I must have been out of my mind.â
Before Deirdre could respond, he turned his palms toward Deirdre and clutched her hands while he asked her ferociously, âHow could you do th at to me?â
Perhaps Deirdre was in too much pain to speak, as she rested for a long while before she recovered fr om the pain. She then asked, âWhat do you mean? Have you looked into the incident closely?â
âI looked into the surveillance footage from the shopping mall she visited the other day. Did you think th at I wouldnât look into the matter closely enough?â Brendan exerted strength with his hands abruptly in
a pulling motion. Deirdre lost her balance and crashed into Brendanâs body. He clutched her lower jaw, his eyes bloodshot.
âShe is far, far away from you, yet youâre still trying to defame her. Can you be any more malicious? Do
you know how disappointed Charleneâs eyes looked when she looked at me? Itâs silly just to think that I
would actually believe you and look into Charlene! Not a single piece of truth has ever come out of your mouth!â
He shoved away Deirdre abruptly, causing her to fall on the coffee table. The cold glass surface she hit
when she fell sent a piercing pain in her chest, and she was having trouble making sense of the situation.
âThat hurts.â
It was nothing but pain. Even though she was already mentally prepared for this, she still found it amusi ng.
âNo wonder he drank so much and lost his temper. It turns out that he did it because he hurt his belove d Charlene!â
Deirdre got up, her face ghastly pale from the intense pain radiating from her chest. âYou compelled me to tell you over and over again. I didnât take it upon myself to say it.â
Brendan glared at her. âSo you think you could defame someone recklessly just because I asked you a question? Is framing someone all yo u can do?â
âFraming someone?
âI met Charlene in person just a few days ago!â
She could still remember everything that had happened at the time as though it was yesterday.
âWhy would I want to frame her? Would I be foolish enough to test your limits after knowing fully well tha âThatâs enough! How many times are you going to say something like this?â Brendan was annoyed and Deirdre felt as if energy was drained off her body and she did not even have the strength to explain herself.
âIâm the fool because I chose to speak out even though I knew that it was unnecessary to tell Brendan a
