Chapter 290 Fall in Love With Her
“I’m fine.”
In fact, Brendan hoped that the wound would never heal so that he would never forget that he used to ruthlessly ruin a person’s life.
Quivering, he closed his eyes for a while before he reopened them. “Go back.”
Sam drove him back to the mansion. However, a figure at the door attracted Brendan’s attention as soon as he got out of the car.
He was rather dizzy when he saw that blurry figure. He thought it was Deirdre, who had come to see him. He hurriedly took a few steps forward, only to see that Charlene was standing there.

“Bren!” Charlene went up to meet him while clenching her hands nervously. After receiving the news that Brendan was going to see Steven, she had been so worried that she had rushed there immediately without much thought.
It seemed that Steven hadn’t exposed her.
For an instant, Brendan’s eyes darkened. Although his face was no longer that frigid, he still didn’t show any emotion. “Why are you here? It’s too cold. Go back.”
“If I don’t come again, I’m afraid you’ll fall just because of Deirdre….” Charlene bit her lip.
When Brendan heard the name, he felt sharp heartache.
“Bren, you haven’t been to the company in almost a week. Even though you can’t accept Miss McKinnon’s death, you can’t let yourself be so decadent, can you? You are Brendan Brighthall! The CEO of the Brighthall Group! You shouldn’t disregard the company for a woman!” Charlene yapped while grabbing Brendan’s arm.
“Go back if you are here just to persuade me. I know very well when the company needs me.” Brendan refused while trying to suppress the irritation caused by his splitting headache.
“But you can’t go on like this! Miss McKinnon is gone. Even if you keep looking, she won’t come back to you!” screamed Charlene hysterically out of jealousy. Immediately, her eyes met Brendan’s frigid gaze. The man’s black, empty eyes made Charlene’s heart skip a beat. Then, she heard Brendan say, “Even if she’s gone, her corpse cannot disappear out of thin air. I just want Deirdre to come back, even if she’s a corpse!”
Charlene’s eyes were red, and her lips quivered at his answer. “Bren… Why do you care so much about Miss McKinnon’s death? Tell me… Have you fallen in love with her?”
As she shivered, the white vapor Charlene expelled dissipated, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on Brendan’s face.

She was expecting to find disgust on Brendan’s face again and hear him almost instantaneously deny this. However, she only saw a calm face and didn’t hear him admit or deny it.
It was only after a while that Brendan said, “You should go back now.”
Charlene had an emotional breakdown. Tears welled up in her eyes and began to drop one after another.” Bren, did you fall in love with Miss McKinnon just because she got in an accident? Then what if I was the one who died? How I wish I had died instead so that you would not be in such agony…”
“Don’t say that! That’s impossible!” Brendan’s brows were tightly knitted. “You will be fine.”
“But what about our relationship?” Charlene cried, her eyes dull. “Perhaps we aren’t destined to be together. When we were about to get married, I had a car accident. When I woke up, Miss McKinnon had taken my position as your bride. She captured your heart. If I had never woken up, if I had died in that fire to save you, wouldn’t it have been a kind of relief for you?” 1
When Brendan heard her mention the fire, his expression changed. In any case, Charlene was his savior.
