Chapter 68 To Get Deirdre Pregnant
“Don’t tell him!” Deirdre’s face turned ghastly pale, and she bit her lower lip before saying, “It’s unnecessary for you to inform him
of this. Just get it for me.”
Sam felt troubled but did not accept Deirdre’s assignment in the end. He called up Brendan to report this incident after promising
to help her.
After he was done reporting it, Sam asked, “Should I get it, Mr. Brighthall?”
The other end of the line was quiet for a long time before Brendan spoke at all. It sounded like he was enunciating his words in a
rage. “Get it! However, don’t get her the contraceptive pill. Get her supplements of the same brand in pill form.”
Sam was caught in a daze for a long while after he hung up. He was so confused by the situation. ‘Is Brendan trying... to get
Deirdre pregnant?’
Sam felt his heart racing when he thought about that.
Deirdre took the pills in gratitude after he purchased them for her.
She could not see and she did not notice that something was off. She slept after consuming the pill, feeling pleased.
She dreamt of her mother returning to the country in good health. Her mother chatted with her, and she woke up smiling, feeling
as though a ray of sunlight had suddenly penetrated the dark clouds of her mood.
Brendan did not show up in the villa for the next few days.
It went without saying that he was busy keeping Charlene company. After all, Deirdre was just a tool for him.
Deirdre found that to be very normal but she could not help feeling slightly anxious. She was having a hard time sleeping and
eating without any updates on her mother.
Deirdre waited for one more day, until she could not stand it anymore at last. She told Sam, “Can I please borrow your phone? I
would like to give Brendan a call.”
“Yes, of course.”

Sam dialed the number for her and placed it next to her ear. The man answered in a lazy voice when the call was picked up
instantly. Charlene’s crisp laughter was heard occasionally when she teased him for being mischievous.
He asked after a long time, “Why aren’t you saying anything, Sam?”
Deirdre took a deep breath. “It’s me, Brendan.”
Brendan said in a slightly displeased tone, “Why are you calling me from Sam’s phone?”
Deirdre smiled bitterly. ‘You’re really unreasonable, Brendan. What else could I do other than call you from Sam’s phone after
you confiscated mine?’
“Are you free today? Can you come over?”
“I’m not free,” Brendan answered quickly. “It’s my mother’s birthday today, and I’m taking Charlene home to meet her.”
Deirdre was stunned for a moment. The days passed so quickly that it was Madam Brighthall’s birthday already.
Deirdre had organized her birthday celebration two years ago. She was not a capable woman but she was very dependable
when it came to handling important matters. Charlene was in charge of organizing the birthday party this time, so she believed
that Charlene would perform well too.
“Uh... Can you come over after the party?”
“Why?” The man on the other end of the line sniggered. “Are you not satisfied after the other day? Do you want more?”
It was an insulting remark. In addition, Sam was right next to Deirdre, so her face turned pale instantly.
Enduring the humiliation, she said, “No, I just...”
“It’s getting late. We should leave, Brendan. I believe that the party guests are growing impatient.” Charlene’s remark interrupted
Deirdre’s explanation.
“Sure.” The man sounded unusually gentle, yet it was not meant for her.
Then, the call was hung up. Deirdre had yet to recover from the surprise, as she was still thinking about the commotion on the
other end of the line and her current. loneliness.

Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably because she missed her mother.
She thought about her mother cooking her chicken soup every time they met, but she had not tasted it in the past two years.
