Chapter 861


    Chapter 861 Take Miss McKinnon


    After Deirdre’s wounds were dressed, Madame Brighthall kept herpany for a while.


    Deirdrey on the bed after Madame Brighthall left, yet she was having difficulty falling asleep.


    She dreamt of her mother sitting cross-legged under the apricot tree and waving to her when she finally


    fell asleep. Her smile was just as kind and gentle as before. “You’rete. Put down your school bag


    quickly. I don’t want my precious daughter to be tired.”


    She ran forward with tears down her face, yet the scene changed to the rooftop instantly. She watched


    as her mother jumped from the rooftop and screamed hysterically, but there was nothing she could do.


    “Miss McKinnon! Miss McKinnon!”


    Deirdre was awakened by the sound of someone knocking on the door. She sat upright in shock,


    breathing heavily, and her face was drenched in tears.


    “What’s going on?”


    She felt her way to open the door. The maid said in a panicked tone, “Miss McKinnon, the police are


    here.”

    Deirdre sat in the living room and felt the oppressive feeling from the crowd of police officers in the


    house. The police officer brandished his badge and said with a cold expression, “Deirdre McKinnon,


    someone reported to the police for the premeditated homicide of Charli McKinsey. You’reing with


    us.”


    Madame Brighthall immediately ran out. “Sir… This is a misunderstanding.


    What do you mean by premeditated homicide? It is utterly impossible!


    There must be a mistake somewhere.”


    The police officer treated Madame Brighthall with respect in view of her identity, but he still spoke


    sternly. “Madam, the police have investigated this case, and there is no mistake. Miss Charli McKinsey


    is the person who reported this case to us.” ‘What?”


    Madame Brighthall backed away repeatedly. ‘Charli has reported it to the police?’


    The police officer said, “Don’t worry, madam. The police won’t wrong a good person, but if we do find


    that Miss McKinnon didn’tmit the crime indeed upon our investigation, we’ll send her back. Take


    Miss McKinnon!”


    The female police officer behind him stepped forward and cuffed Deirdre’s wrists.


    Deirdre did not resist and followed the police outside calmly.


    Meanwhile, Brendan arrived in a rush and got out of the car. His wlessly handsome face was tense,


    while his dark eyes were bloodshot as he stared strenuously at the woman walking out of the yard.


    ‘You’re going to be fine, Deirdre. I will make sure that you’re released safely.”


    Deirdre ignored him, lowered her head, and got into the police car.


    The police car drove away. Madame Brighthall hobbled to Brendan and gave him a ferocious p.


    ‘This is the wife you chose! This is the woman you want to marry! It’s fine that she stole your heart, but


    she is trying to exterminate everyone! What have I done wrong in raising a son like you!?”


    Madame Brighthall was furious while Brendan’s head was slightly turned to the side.


    The maid hastily grabbed Madame Brighthall’s arm. “Madame Brighthall… Please calm down. I’m sure


    that Mr. Brighthall didn’t want this to happen either!” “He didn’t want this to happen? If he didn’t want


    this to happen, why did he invite Charli to throw her birthday party here? If he didn’t want this to


    happen, why did he let Charli show up in Deirdre’s room that day? If he didn’t want this to happen, why


    is Deirdre detained by the police?” 1


    Madame Brighthall covered her chest, and her face turned purple bit by bit. ‘There are things that I


    don’t ask, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t know. I shouldn’t have told you Deirdre’s whereabouts in the


    past had I known that you’d be so unrepentant!” “Madame Brighthall! Don’t talk anymore. Have your


    medicine quickly!”


    The maid bustled about by bringing medicine and water.


    Brendan did not utter a word, but he turned around and got into the car.


    He made a promise to Madame Brighthall before he got into the car, “I won’t let anything happen to


    Deirdre.”


    The car engine was started. He drove all the way to the hospital and opened the door to the ward.


    Charlene was sitting on the bed, being fed food bite by bite. She beamed with joy at the sight of


    Brendan. ‘You’re here, Brendan.”
