Chapter 628 You're Tempting Me

Even though Deirdre had expected it, her heart still sank a little when the bodyguard told her about it.

She had not expected a heartless person like Brendan to show her any compassion, but she had not expected him to leave in his car without any hesitation when she was in danger either.

'He really is the most heartless man I've ever met,' Deirdre thought as her eyes were filled with mockery.

"Okay," she replied. "I know what kind of person Brendan is, so you can tell Mr. King. As long as he can ensure my safety, I have plenty of ways to bring him down from his throne."

The bodyguard turned around and left. Deirdre was still sitting on the bed in the same position even when he came back from the grocery store. Her face was hidden in the shadows, so he could not see her expression right now.

He felt a little bit sorry for her, so he said in a gentle voice," Don't worry. As long as everything you said is true and you're willing to cooperate with Mr. King, he won't hurt you."

Deirdre placed her hand on her face. No one knew if she was wiping tears off her face or just rubbing her face because she was exhausted. 'Thank you."
