Chapter 803
Chapter 803 You’re Always in His Heart
“He’s alright. His wounds just tore a little.”
Deirdre felt a pang of guilt. “Sorry, that was me. I didn’t know he was hurt when I pushed him.” “It’s
okay. It’s got nothing to do with you at all. Even if you didn’t push him, his wounds would have been
torn open anyway. He had been driving all the way here from Central Hospital.”
Deirdre froze. That was half an hour’s journey! Had he gone mad? She pushed away theplicated
feelings as they arose and asked,” What’s with his injuries? I thought he’s been spending his time with
Charlene. Did something happen halfway through? An ambush?”
“Spending time with Charlene?” Sam was taken aback.
“Who told you that? He wasn’t spending time with Charlene.” “No?” Deirdre’s mind turned nk.
Brendan had lied to her about the business trip, but Charlene was not the ulterior motive, after all?
Then where had he been?
No. It did not matter where he had been. He had lied to her. Nothing was going to change that.
“So, he was ambushed?”
Sam looked conflicted. “Yes.”
Deirdre exhaled a sigh. “Then you should call a doctor to redress his injuries. Meanwhile, I’ll be
sleeping on the couch downstairs tonight.”
She turned on her heels, and Sam cried before he could stop himself, “Miss McKinnon, wait!”
Even he himself was surprised at his reaction, but he continued. “He… Mr. Brighthall needs you. Can
you please stay by his side for tonight? You don’t have to do much. Just lie next to him when you sleep.
Or else, he’ll wake up and look for you again.”

Deirdre cast her eyes down. “And why will he do that?” “Because he wants to see you?” Sam was a
little helpless. “An hour ago, his life was hanging by a thread, and he had an emergency operation
performed on him in the early hours. If it weren’t for you, why would rushing home be the first thing he
did after waking up from his sedatives? You can’t seriously think it’s because he has trouble sleeping
unless it’s his own bed.”
Deirdre could not understand what Brendan’s actions meant, nor were Sam’s words making any sense.
The man finally said the quiet words aloud, “Miss McKinnon, you’re always in his heart.”
Deirdre’s eye twitched.
Then her face turned biting. “I didn’t expect you to help maintain Brendan’s lies.”
She had always believed Sam to be candid and honest with her, but she was wrong.
She should not have trusted anyone who worked for Brendan. In the end, they all served him. i “Miss
McKinnon…” Sam faltered a little. Then, he continued. ‘You can trust me or don’t. It doesn’t matter
because I’m not lying. If Mr. Brightall didn’t care for you, why would he go to so many lengths
pretending to be Kyran Reed just so he could be together with you? Do you really think it was because
he wanted you to bear him a child?
‘You were heavily disfigured at that time, Miss McKinnon. And Mr.
Brighthall had no shortage of beautiful women who woulde to him and dly bear him a kid. So,
why did he take such a heavy toll just to be-” “Enough!” snarled
Deirdre. Her face was pale, and her brows furrowed. “I don’t know what new game you people are
ying, but I’m not gonna believe a single thing any of you say. Even if I discount all the pains he has
caused me, it still doesn’t change the fact that he could not even be honest with me. There was never
any business trip, was there? But he told me that was what this was!”
Sam, frantic, said, “It’s because-” “Sam!”
The man on the bed suddenly growled, stopping him. He had just woken up from his ckout, but the
pain from his injuries caused him to scowl.
‘You’re awake?”
Brendan took a deep breath and turned aside with difficulty. His ck eyes reflected the woman’s
figure. “Leave us.”
Deirdre headed toward the door, and Brendan added, “No. Sam leaves. You stay.”
