Chapter 577 Why Did She Marry Gillian?
"Oh, thank you." Laura felt flattered. Her presence at the banquet was so minimal that it was neglectable. As such,
it was rare for someone to care about her preferences.
She said with a smile, "Miss McKinnon, with you being so beautiful, your sense should be good too. I'm very
honored."
Deirdre returned Laura’s compliment with a smile.
What followed was business networking. Deirdre minimized her presence by just standing aside, smiling, and
nodding.
CiIIian seemed to have a strong intention to cooperate with Brendan. He mentioned his intention many times, but
Brendan indirectly rejected them. Following that, Ci Ilian talked about Declan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"My younger brother is too ignorant. He's as naive as a child. He actually broke his relationship with you just
because he didn't agree with you about one thing and kept talking about you behind your back."
As soon as CiIlian said that, Brendan showed a trace of disgust and impatience on his face. "We are not suitable to
be friends, but I don't bother to argue with him. It would be better without the need to have any contact with him."
"Yes." While Ci Ilian observed Brendan's reaction, his smile grew broader." But Mr. Brighthall, please don't think that
Declan and I are the same kind of people. I still sincerely appreciate your personality and character."
Brendan took a sip of his wine. "Mr. King, of course, I am aware of your character and outstanding abilities.
Otherwise, how could you manage the Kings so well?"
Cillian acted humbly. "No, Mr. Brighthall. In terms of abilities, I'm not even half as good as you are."
It was at this moment that Laura came over to remind Cillian of the arrival of other guests.
Cillian hurriedly said, "Mr. Brighthall and Miss McKinnon, please make yourself at home. I'll have to greet other
guests now. Let's talk more later when I’m free."
"Sure, thank you."
After Cillian left, Deirdre stopped smiling and couldn’t help but say, "Cillian doesn't seem to love Laura very much,
so why did he marry Laura? Just because he wanted to be comparable to Declan? He is willing to spend his whole
life with someone he doesn't love?"
Brendan took a sideways glance at Deirdre, sipped half a glass of wine, and replied, "Of course, it's not only
because of Declan. Laura is also the most suitable marriage partner. Not only is she not aggressive and
troublesome, but she is also submissive, quiet, virtuous, and has a good family background. Marrying her allows
Cillian to get a lot of help while continuing his unrestrained life."
"Even if Cillian goes out for women tonight, do you think that with Laura's personality, she will speak up?"
Deirdre fell silent and bit her lip. "In that case, why would Laura marry Cillian?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Firstly, she's Gillian’s fiancee, and secondly, she is pregnant."
'What do you mean?"
Brendan put down his glass and answered, "I'm not sure about the details. After all, how can I, as an outsider, know
very well about their family's matters? But when you think about Gillian's character alone, you can figure out what
Cillian would do. In order to marry Laura, he will naturally do whatever he can.”
From Brendan's explanation, Deirdre was enlightened in an instant. At the same time, she felt disappointed.
To think that Cillian could be so shameful...
Did Cillian think that Laura was merely a tool?
Deirdre was somewhat shivering.
After gazing at Deidre's face for a while, Brendan said, "You don't have to pity Laura too much because this is also
her choice. If she wants to,
Declan will take her away. Since she accepts this identity for the sake of her family and her offspring, then we, as
outsiders, have nothing to say."
"Indeed." Deirdre laughed at herself, "It's just that I felt helpless when I heard the news. Laura is like this even
though she comes from an affluent family, let alone..."
