Chapter 591


    Chapter 591 Did He Do This?


    Deirdre leaned on his side and answered, "Nothing much. Mr. King is here to thank me for his younger


    brother''s incident."


    At the mention of Den, Brendan furrowed his eyebrows and said in an extremely displeased tone, "It


    was inappropriate for me to speak in the witness of everyone earlier. What is your rtionship with


    Den that you have to help him like that? You made up a poor excuse even."


    He sounded jealous, as if he was extremely displeased about his woman showing herself in public to


    defend another man.


    Gillian''s expression was unfathomable, while Deirdre said in a coquettish tone, "What do you mean by I


    made a poor excuse? You can ask Mr. King whether Den helped me if you don’t believe me.”


    "She''s right.” Cillian recovered from his surprise and nodded. "A drunkard charged into the female toilet


    and behaved unkindly toward Miss


    McKinnon. My younger brother went to stop the drunkard after hearing themotion. I immediately


    sent someone to deal with the drunkard as soon as I learned about the incident."


    Deirdre sneered in her heart.


    Cillian turned the near-miss bully incident into an unkind act, and he even tried to take credit for


    himself.


    "Is that so?” said Brendan, his expression dimmed at once. He scrutinized Deirdre''s face covered by


    concealer and caught everybody by surprise when he asked, "What unkind behavior did that man


    engage in?"


    "Uh..." Cillian could tell that Brendan was displeased, so he softened Ronan‘s behavior with great


    effort. He spected and said,


    "He assumed that Miss McKinnon was his family after he had one too many drinks and wanted to do


    something to Miss McKinnon. However, don''t worry, Mr. Brighthall. My younger brother came quickly,


    and nothing bad happened to Miss McKinnon.”


    "Nothing bad happened?”


    Brendan inquired closely, but his tone sounded off.

    Cillian was stunned for a moment. In the next moment, Brendan''s eyes glistened with a cold glint, and


    he tilted Deirdre''s chin.


    "So, what is with your swollen face? You told me that you knocked on a table identally earlier, but in


    reality, it was that man who hit you?”


    His expression was so ghastly that Cillian was startled.


    Deirdre knew Brendan well enough, but she could not figure out what had infuriated him.


    ‘Is it only because my current identity is his woman? Or is he putting on an act in Gillian’s presence?’


    "Brendan." She lowered her eyes.


    "I—"


    "I don''t want to hear any answers that are trying to hide the truth or soften the incident. I want you to tell


    me the truth. Did that man hurt your face?”


    Brendan spoke in a loud and clear voice. He took a deep breath to suppress his anger.


    Deirdre’s face turned pale, and she answered, "Hmm."


    "Where is he now? What is his name?"


    Noticing that Brendan was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Cillian hastily said, "Don''t


    worry, Mr. Brighthall. I wouldn''t let Miss


    McKinnon be mistreated since she is your guest. I''ve already dealt with the matter for you. We''ve not


    only made the drunkard pay 150,000 dors aspensation, but we''ve also made him write an


    apology letter. He was sent to the police station, and he is still being detained there so he can repent!"


    “Repent?” Brendan''s pupils constricted abruptly, and he said coldly, "Who isn''t capable of paying


    150,000 dors? Isn''t it a necessity to write an apology letter? If he is released after repenting in the


    police station without any criminal record, he''s going to do this the second time and the third time in the


    future. Moreover, she is my woman! I won''t let him off!"


    Gillian''s expression turned rigid instantly after he was startled by Brendan’s aura. He was rendered


    speechless. Even though he knew that Brendan was not targeting him, he was still scared out of his


    wits by Brendan''s aura.


    One should know that Brendan was younger than him by four years.


    "However, he is Ronan Lane, the only heir of Lane Industries..."


    "Do you think that I''m incapable of handling a measly Lane Industries, Mr. King?” Brendan found it


    amusing. "Let alone Lane Industries, I won’t even be bothered by the most powerful corporation in


    Eastgene!"
