Chapter 237 Unprepared to Tolerate Sam It would be impossible that he did not feel angry because of his icy cold answer.
Deirdre sat on the sofa in a daze and attempted to test his mood by pouring him warm water.
âWarm your hands first. It must be cold outside.â
Brendan stared at Deirdre and felt his anger diminish substantially after seeing her nose and hands reddened by the cold.
He received the mug and said, âDo you know why Iâm angry?â
Deirdre shook her head.
âYou could have informed me before you left the house, and I could have kept you company. You left without saying anything, so how am I supposed to explain to Ophelia if sheâs worried?â
Deirdre lowered her head. âI didnât know that youâd be up so early.â
âRemember to come and knock on my door right away if thereâs anything next time.â
He did not wish to see Sam and Deirdre walking together anymore. Even though Sam was obedient, it did not signify that he was prepared to tolerate Sam spending time with Deirdre.
âAlright.â
Deirdre nodded without the slightest hesitation, and Brendan appeared to be soothed. He changed the topic of conversation when he noticed the bags of items on the coffee table.
âWhat did you get?â
Deirdreâs gaze turned gentle as soon as he mentioned that. She pulled out the fabric in the bag and said. â I bought some fabric suitable for winter clothing.â
âWhy did you buy that?â
Deirdre turned around and looked in the direction of the second floor. She answered after a long time, Itâs because my motherâs health is not so good, and her body was weakened because she neglected her health when she was young so she could make a living. Her knees hurt when it snows during the winter or when it is cold.
âI believe that itâs going to snow soon. Itâs already winter, so I got some fabric to sew some knee support for her. She can wear the knee support when sheâs outside so that her knees wonât get cold.â
She spoke with a tone filled with the affection and love of a daughter, yet Brendan furrowed his eyebrows when he heard that.
No one knew better than him that Maeve did not need that.
âIf her knees canât stand the cold, there are specialized knee supports that you can get from the store.
You donât need to worry about this.â
âNo, sheâs not used to wearing those.â Deirdre was not infuriated. On the contrary, she chuckled as if she remembered something. âShe started sewing her own knee supports long ago and prefers the hand made ones. Moreoverâ¦â
Deirdre raised her head and said, âI can provide her with anything so just consider this as the first gift I can give to her since my departure previously. I hope that she will think of me when she looks at the handmade knee supports when sheâs back to receive treatment.â
prepared to Tolerate Sam Brendan felt uneasy in his heart, and his eyebrows were tightly furrowed. âYou canât see, so how are you going to sew?â
Deirdre touched the fabric and said, âYou donât need to worry about that. When I was at Ster- At the clinic in the past, there were many children who couldnât afford winter clothes in the winter, so I sewed them warm clothes. Even though my workmanship is not so skillful, it will be coldâresistant at the very least.â
Brendanâs expression turned gloomy when he heard Sterlingâs name. The memories shared between Deirdre and Sterling were far more than the memories shared during their two years of marriage.
He suppressed his jealousy and said, âBe careful then, donât hurt yourself.â
Deirdre nodded. She began working on the product during breakfast but cut the fabric to the proper size and sought Brendanâs help to thread the needle. When all was set, she began to work on the product stitch by stitch.
She was extremely cautious, but there was no telling if her skill was rusty or her fingers were frozen stiff by the cold weather. She inhaled sharply from the pain when the needle pricked her thumb.
Brendanâs pupils constricted, and he clutched her wrist at once. The tip of her thumb was bleeding, so he sucked on her thumb without the slightest hesitation.
âBrendanâ¦â Deirdre was astounded and attempted to pull back her hand subconsciously, yet Brendan tightly grasped her hand.
