Chapter 277 Take Me
Sam felt his heart racing as soon as he heard the remark. He said with a flattering smile, “What do you mean premeditated murder? Is there some sort of misunderstanding?”
The police officer said with a frown, “Do you think that there is a misunderstanding when the stench of blood is so strong here? Can you stop the people outside from talking about this situation? I’m warning you not to interfere with the prosecution of this crime. Deidre is a criminal suspect, and we are taking her to the police station for an interrogation today!”
Upon saying that, the man scanned the woman sitting on the floor and noticed that her disfigured face matched the police report completely. He did not comment further. He only said, “Deirdre, you’re coming with us!”
The others were stunned.

Someone was injured here indeed, but it was definitely not a crime as serious as premeditated murder! The injured man is this woman’s husband, and they are legally married. How can there be premeditated murder between a husband and wife? If you don’t believe me, you can wait for the husband to come back and explain this to you in person!”
“There are countless premeditated murder cases between husbands and wives. Besides, someone reported the incident to us, so we will handle the case.” The police officer spoke in an icy yet impatient tone.
Sam wanted to explain more, but Deirdre suddenly stood up and said, “Right, I killed someone. Take me.”
“Ms. McKinnon!” Sam furrowed his eyebrows incredulously. She should not walk. right into a trap while Brendan was still receiving, emergency treatment. If Deirdre was detained by the police, he would not be able to have access to the situation at the police station.
Deirdre was indifferent. “I should admit to killing someone if I did it, right?”
The police detained Deirdre, but there was no way for Sam to reach out to Brendan because he was still receiving emergency treatment. He was panic–stricken.
Madam Brighthall came quickly upon receiving this information. She had a weak heart, so she lost consciousness twice from the shock. She said after waking up with shaky hands, “What happened? Why was Brendan sent to the emergency
department out of nowhere?”
She pointed at Sam. “You, explain!”
Sam kept his head lowered and his eyebrows furrowed. He was considering what kind of words to use to soften Deirdre’s actions. Charlene had come with Madam Brighthall to keep her company and she had been plotting for a long time. She took it upon herself to speak first with red eyes.
“It was Deirdre.”
“Deirdre?” Madam Brighthall found the name familiar. She remembered soon that Deirdre was the blind, disfigured woman, and her face turned green with rage instantly. “It’s her again!”

Charlene nodded. “I’m unsure of the specifics of the situation but I think Brendan did something that displeased Ms. McKinnon, so Ms. McKinnon impulsively picked up a knife to stab Brendan…”
Her lips were trembling, and she was having a hard time composing sentences.
Madam Brighthall almost could not catch her breath. “This woman picked up a knife to stab a person just because they were fighting? Has she lost her mind or something? This woman is vile… Where is she now?”
Sam felt even more uneasy in his heart. Charlene could convince Madam Brighthall easily with just a few words. Sam explained, “Madam, it’s a very complicated
situation.
“It’s not something that can be explained with just a few words, but Ms. McKinnon didn’t stab him out of nowhere. There was a reason. When Mr. Brighthall wakes up, you can…”
“So we should wait until Brendan is awake so he can cover up for Ms. McKinnon?” Charlene interrupted Sam, her eyes glistening with coldness. “Sam, I know that you have a close relationship with Ms. McKinnon and that you’re her bodyguard.
However, you should know your own place. Regardless of the reason Ms. McKinnon hurt Brendan, it was wrong of her to injure someone. It’s fortunate that she’s blind. If she was a normal person, she would have stabbed Brendan in the chest. Does that mean that we wouldn’t be seeing Brendan for the rest of our lives?”
