Chapter 588 These Photos Are Fake

Mrs. King's expression was dark. Just as she was about to summon the security guard to get her out of there, Cillian spoke.

"Miss McKinnon, I think this matter has nothing to do with you, right? You shouldn't think that you can have everything your way just because you're Mr. Brighthall's plus-one. Whether or not there is another story in this matter, we'll figure it out ourselves."

"She's Mr. Brighthall's partner? Is he talking about Brendan?"

"I see. No wonder she's so bold. So, she has someone to back her up."

When Mrs. King heard that Deirdre was with Brendan, she had no other choice but to swallow her anger.

As for Brendan, he just dusted his sleeves and said, "Stop it, Deirdre."

Even though he sounded like he was admonishing Deirdre, everyone could see that he was actually supporting her.

If he really did not care about her, he would have asked someone to get her out instead of asking her to stop.

"No," Deirdre replied gently. "If it was someone else, I probably wouldn't have stepped in. But Mr. King helped me get out of trouble in the washroom, so I can't stand seeing someone slander him." "Hmm?" Brendan raised his eyebrows. "So, does this mean that you owe Declan a favor?"

"Yeah," Deirdre replied before looking at Cillian. "Mr. Cillian King was there too."

Putting on a fake smile, Cillian said, "Yes, it's true that Declan has helped Miss McKinnon, but you don't know each other. You're not his friend, so how can you be so sure that someone is slandering him instead of his true this matter any further. Let's end it here. You can rest assured, miss. We'll certainly give you a satisfactory explanation."

"Dad-"

"Shut up!" Mr. King Sr. shouted, "I don't want to hear a single word from your mouth!"

Cillian turned to the crowd and said with a smile, "I apologize for the disruption. All of you are here today to celebrate my wife's birthday, so let's move on from this matter and continue to cut the cake." Everyone laughed. They all just treated the things that transpired just now as a show.

"Yeah. We're here today to celebrate Laura's birthday. As for this farce, we believe that the Kings will be able to find a perfect solution for it."

"That's right. Let's continue with the celebration."

Everyone was wearing big smiles on their faces and clinking their glasses together. All of them looked as if nothing had happened before. Even though everyone laughed it off as nothing but a farce, deep down, all of them thought that Declan was a playboy who only cared about having fun.

If Declan did not do anything, he would only become the laughingstock of the city.

With that thought in mind, Brendan cleared his throat, and Deirdre stood forward.

"Hold on for a second."

Everyone, including Cillian, was stunned. They all frowned and were displeased by Deirdre's interruption.

Deirdre ignored them and said calmly, "It seems to me that you all have come to a decision pretty fast. None of you have any photo of them sleeping on the bed, yet all of you think that he has slept with this woman."

"Who is she?"

A discussion began to break among the crowd.

"I have no idea. She just popped out of nowhere. But who does she think she is? The Kings intended to settle the dispute, yet she has the audacity to step forward."

"Could it be that she is Declan's lover too? Well, she's pretty, but unfortunately, she's brainless."

Mrs. King's face sank as she said, "Miss, this is our own family affair, and it has been resolved. Why must you bring it up again?"

"Are you sure about that?" asked Deirdre. "Why do I feel that this matter is filled with suspicion?"
