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."
Declan 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.
Declan could not help feeling envious. 'When will I have a relationship like this? It's a waste that this relationship is

Brendan thought about all sorts of things that happened between him and Deirdre.
He used to think that relationships 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 relationship was not that bad
after building a relationship 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.
Declan 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. She lay 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 claiming 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 outcome when something so serious happens to me.
Our love is beyond all doubt, and I hope the online community 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.
Declan's expression was not as relaxed, 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 claimed 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 claimed 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 claimed it must be Charlene who drops the charges, or there must be stronger evidence.
Otherwise, you will see Miss McKinnon in court."
