Chapter 639
Chapter 639 Come See Me
Deirdre was caught in a daze for a moment, but she cleared her head soon enough.
‘Brendan''s tricks are growing cruller with time, and now he has learned to seek pity too?*
She would feel sorry for him at this point if she was her past self, but she felt nothing other than hatred
now.She said nonchntly, "What does your well-being have anything to do with me? Go to the
hospital if you’re unwell, Brendan. I''m not a doctor and can''t help you. If it''s inconvenient for you to
send the phone to me, I''ll seek Mr. King''s help to get it from-"
"I won''t hand it to him." Brendan took a deep breath and concisely interrupted her.
Deirdre was stunned and furrowed her eyebrows. "What are you doing, Brendan?"
Brendan repeated himself by saying, "Come see me."
"No!" Deirdre roared aloud, her ghastly pale face flushed in anger.
The customers in the convenience store looked over at her.
She forced herself to calm down with great effort by clenching her fist tightly. Only then she found her
voice to say, "Stop dreaming, Brendan. I won''te and see you."
Brendan fell silent for a few seconds. "If that''s the case, I won''t return the phone to you either."
"You!"
"Not only will I not return the phone..." Brendan chuckled in a teasing manner. "I''m going to throw it out
of the window so it will shatter from the impact."
Deirdre felt as if her chest was exploding, and her body was shaking from the anger.
"You''re despicable!"
"Hmm..." Brendan answered nonchntly, ‘You see me as the kind of person who would swear not to
stop until my goal is attained anyhow. Why shouldn''t I just,disy that impression fully then?"
Deirdre hung up the phone in a rage.
The storekeeper looked at Deirdre concerningly and said, "Girl, don''t keep it to yourself if you find
yourself in a difficult situation, such as you''re being threatened. Laws rule the society, and there’s
police to help."
Deirdre forced a smile and said, ‘Thank you. You''ve misunderstood. I''m not being threatened."
The storekeeper appeared to be relieved. ‘Then it must be a lover''s quarrel, right? That''s just how it is
when you''re dating someone. When I was dating my husband, his actions infuriated me. He was
incapable of showing care or romance and also incapable of learning. However, he treated me with
sincerity and gave me all his love. I figured that I would not be at a loss if I married him as long as he
didn’t do anything that betrayed my trust."
Deirdre cracked a smile, but she could not bring herself to smile.
‘Isn''t Brendan a textbook example of a bad partner? He is incapable of showing care or romance, and
he doesn''t treat me with sincerity. Why did I wallow in him at the time like I had lost my mind? Why
does my heart hurt now when his name is mentioned even after I''ve stopped loving him?’

Noticing that Deirdre''s expression grew even more unpleasant, the storekeeper hastily said, "If he
really isn''t a good one, move on. There is plenty of fish in the sea. You have a beautiful face, so you''ll
have nock of suitors."
"Thank you." Deirdre swallowed the stinging bitterness in her throat and felt for some loose change in
her pocket. "How much will that be? I''ll pay."
‘That will be 15 cents."
Meanwhile, the phone rang.
The storekeeper stuck out her neck to take a nce, "I-It''s from your boyfriend."
Deirdre was vexed and could not be bothered to correct the storekeeper that Brendan was not her
boyfriend. She said, "Don''t bother."
She pulled out a note, handed it to the storekeeper, and waited for change.
During that period, the phone rang again as if it would not stop until its goal was attained.
The storekeeper could not refrain from taking a few nces at Deirdre." Why don''t you... take the call?
It will be difficult for me to continue working if he keeps calling like this."
