Chapter 868 Interview
“However, I’m quite curious how you managed to convince Miss McKinnon to the point she is willing to
follow your instruction to withdraw her guilty plea.”
Brendan looked at the dripping intravenous drip and said calmly, “I told her the truth. I told her
everything without holding back anything.”
Den was surprised. “Is that so? In truth, you should have done that from the start. However, you’re
always carrying burdens by yourself. I find it quite surprising that you would choose to tell Miss
McKinnon and let her share your burden… It seems that she is really important to you.”
Brendan cracked a smile. The answer was obvious without the need to speak.
Den could not help feeling envious. ‘When will I have a rtionship like this? It’s a waste that this
rtionship is too heavy and risky.”
Brendan thought about all sorts of things that happened between him and Deirdre.
He used to think that rtionships were troublesome in the past. He cared about Charlene, but he
knew deep down that he felt responsible toward Charlene most of the time. He had only realized that a
rtionship was not that bad after building a rtionship with Deirdre.
Just as they were looking at each other, the room door opened heavily all of a sudden.
Brendan raised his head and found Sam breathing heavily at the door.
Den asked smilingly, “What’s going on? What’s so urgent?”
Sam pursed his lips and did not say anything, but he turned on the television immediately.
In the next moment, Charlene’s face appeared on the screen. Shey on the bed looking emaciated
and appeared to be severely injured to the eyes of outsiders.
A journalist asked away from the camera, “Miss McKinsey, is the online article true about iming that
Miss McKinnon pushed you down the stairs?”
Charlene’s eyes were reddened with tears, and her beautiful face was tainted with fear. “I… I don’t
know what I’ve said wrongly to offend Miss McKinnon that she would actually…”
She did not answer the question straightforwardly, yet her answer made no difference. The journalist
said quickly, “So, it is true. However, Mr. Brighthall chose to keep quiet about the incident. In addition,
Miss McKinnon is the cousin of Mr. Brighthall’s ex-wife. Do you think that this incident will just pass?”
Charlene looked straight at the camera, and her pale lips moved as she said softly, “Brendan is a
righteous person. I believe he will certainly be able to provide me with a proper oue when
something so serious happens to me. Our love is beyond all doubt, and I hope the onlinemunity
will not implicate the Brighthall Group and Brendan in this incident. This is a conflict between Miss
McKinnon and me. Brendan is only caught in a difficult position.”

When her voice died away, the caregiver by the side immediately said, “I’m sorry, but we need to
administer medicine for Miss McKinsey! She broke her leg and can’t dance anymore despite being a
ballet dancer in the past. However, we can’t let her end up crippled for the rest of her life. Please leave
the room and give her some privacy.”
The interview ended, but Brendan was still staring at the television screen.
Den’s expression was not as rxed, and his smile had vanished.” Charlene is very intelligent and
is using public opinion to her advantage.”
Brendan brought up his social media on his phone and found that it was filled with posts berating
Deirdre.
The posts imed that Deirdre’s elder cousin was a murderer while she was a mad woman.
In fact, some extremists had even threatened the Brighthall Group through their official websites and
imed that Deirdre must be sent to prison. Otherwise, they would boycott the Brighthall Group’s
products.
Public opinion swayed instantly, and there was no way to suppress it.
Sam received a call soon afterward and told Brendan, “The police are not willing to release Miss
McKinnon on bail anymore. They imed it must be Charlene who drops the charges, or there must be
stronger evidence. Otherwise, you will see Miss McKinnon in court.”
