Charlene had thus lost another advantage in competing with Deirdre.Meanwhile, Deirdre, who was facing Charlene’s oppressive eyes, remained calm and collected. It was as if she wasn’t facing her enemy, who once wished to kill her. She even lifted up the corner of her mouth.“Miss McKinney, how are you doing? It’s been about two weeks since we last met, hasn’t it?”Charlene regained her calmness and smiled. “I’m sorry I don’t get you. What I know is that we haven’t seen each other since we were separated from Neve. In fact, I have been wondering why the police came to me. It turns out that Miss McKinnon is trying to avenge me by plotting against me because she is jealous that her ex-husband has fallen for me and wants to marry me.”“So, you won’t confess regardless, right?” said Deirdre while looking at Charlene.While blinking her eyes, Charlene rebutted, “What do you want me to confess? Miss McKinnon, do you know that I am innocent? I’m not surprised that you hate me because of o

“Both of you were obviously—” ‘Both of you were obviously together yesterday.’When the police officer was about to blurt that out, he seemed to have recalled something and stopped. His eyes were filled with disbelief.When Deirdre heard the police officer, she looked confused and asked, “What did you want to say?”“Both of you were obviously a married couple. Since both of you are married, why can’t the two of you talk face-to-face? How can you not meet him?”Deirdre was stunned for a moment before she replied, “The world is very complicated. Not every couple can talk face-to-face in a friendly manner. In short, we don’t wish to see each other.”“Oh, I see.” The police officer suppressed his surprise and went back to the topic. “Anyway, please take note that the relationship between you and Mr. Brighthall may affect this case with Miss McKinsey.”“Understand, thank you.”Deirdre turned and walked away. However, after she had taken two steps, she couldn’t help but ask, “Are yo

Seeing Deirdre’s tenderness and worry about him, Kyran began to feel hot, and that heat seemed to have gone up and out through his throat.“Deirdre.” Deirdre seemed to be aware of something when she heard Kyran’s husky voice. She froze and felt the strength Kyran used to hug her gradually increasing as he pulled her tighter into his embrace.Deirdre looked at him nervously. Her prey-like eyes, and her blushing face were more delicate than the blooming roses. Her stiffened body seemed to be aware of what was going to happen and appeared to be seducing Kyran.He almost couldn't help thinking of Deirdre’s face frowning under him. His black eyes became burning hot, and he repeated calling her name over and over again.“Deirdre.“Deirdre.“Deirdre.”“I—”When Deirdre was about to answer, a pair of lips covered and pressed against hers, stopping her from answering.Kyran was shivering, feeling the joy of regaining what was lost and the nervousness that it might not last long. Ther

As soon as Deirdre reached out her hands, Kyran took the lead.“Let me do it so that you won’t be burned. Just wait for me outside.”Kyran was very meticulous. Deirdre enjoyed spending her time with him except…She felt Kyran seemed to be hiding something from her. They were close, but their hearts seemed to be distanced a lot. And she wondered why.The two of them had their own thoughts, so they didn’t chat a lot when they sat down to eat.After they finished eating, when Deirdre rose to her feet, Kyran said, “Deirdre, I have to leave tonight.”“Leave?” Deirdre was stunned. “Where are you going? Are you going to pick up Mr. King? He’s drinking again?”“No.” Looking affectionately at Deirdre, Kyran said, “My father is sick, and he’s admitted to the hospital. I have to go to see him in Germia.”Upon hearing that, Deirdre became nervous. “He’s sick? Is it serious?”“I’m not sure.”“So it wasn’t Mr. King who called you but your family?”“Yes…”Although Deirdre was reluctant, s

Deirdre plucked up her courage to call that phone number, which was answered in a few seconds. She quickly introduced herself, “Hello, I’m Deirdre McKinnon.”“Hello, Miss McKinnon, I’m Bell. Mr. King said you have something about a case to ask me. May I know what it is?”It was inconvenient for Deirdre to get straight to the point, so she inquired about Charlene's matter as a cover before getting to the point. "Mr. Bell, I would like to ask, is there any quick way to file a divorce without the consent of the man?”“Divorce?” Mr. Bell was stunned. It was totally out of the topic that he needed a few seconds to recover his senses. “It depends on the situation. Generally, if the man disagrees, he needs to file a lawsuit in court. As for filing for divorce, of course, a reason is also needed.”“A reason?”“Behavior such as domestic violence, abuse, taking on a bad habit, or cheating can all be grounds for litigation.”“Do any of these need proof?”Mr. Bell chuckled. “That’s for sure
