Chapter 599 Convince Me

After all, that man was Brendan Brighthall!

Apart from having no concern about living a good life after marrying him, she would be respected and envied by others no matter where she was. She would not need to suck up to the Woods, be subservient to Joan, and live on Joan's leftovers.

"It's no pity. My family still has a strong hold in Eastgene without Brendan," said Joan. "I hope that one of you can get on with Brendan. We're besties, so we can help out each other when one of us marries Brendan. It's a waste that..." She heaved a sigh.

"It's a waste what?" Zinerva's interest was piqued, and she grew restless in her heart when she heard Joan's sigh.

"It's a waste that Brendan is already in a relationship." Joan looked toward Deirdre. "It's the woman seated opposite Brendan. She's beautiful, isn't she? She is a nobody and blind. Yet, she managed to make Brendan take her to an upper-class party just with her beauty. He is very affectionate to her."

Zinerva stared at Deirdre's face closely.

'She is beautiful, but there are countless beautiful women in this world. How did she get so lucky?

'In comparison, I'm no worse than her. Moreover, she is blind!'

She grew jealous in her heart, and so were the others. They could not refrain from complaining, "There's nothing impressive about her. She can seduce a 40-year-old man with her beauty, but Brendan is truly out of her league."

Joan's eyes glistened with an unknown glint. She heaved a sigh and said, "I find that there's nothing impressive about this woman as well, and she's not half as beautiful as all of you. Yet, Brendan dotes on her and spoils her.

I figured that she is good at pretending and feigning a good image for herself."

"Who is incapable of feigning a good image? I think she is lucky that she met Brendan earlier than us. If I were to meet him first, perhaps I'd be the one being spoiled."

Joan nodded. "You're right. I think so too. If her image is ruined, such as letting Brendan see her after she falls into the water, I figure that Brendan's impression of her will be ruined completely. By then, all of you can show up looking amazing. Even I'd choose you if I were Brendan."

Zinerva seemed to be enlightened upon hearing Joan's remark. Her beautiful eyes landed on Brendan's face and glowed with a confident glint.

"You can convince me... Use the advantage that you take the most pride in.'

Deirdre's expression froze as soon as Brendan made the remark.

Brendan sniggered. "I'm only teasing you. I'm not interested in you. I'm not planning on collaborating with Cillian, either. I'm not fond of Ci llian's character. Moreover, I can do it myself if I want to take revenge on Delcan."

"Is that so?" Deirdre was relieved instantly. She felt ashamed of her thoughts earlier because she assumed Brendan was about to make exaggerated requests again.

"It will be great if you don't work with Cillian."

Upon saying that, she lowered her head and ate her meal in small bites.

Brendan's phone vibrated, and he saw the caller ID. He stood up subconsciously and said, "I'm going to take a call outside. I'll be back soon. Wait for me here."

"Hmm."

Deirdre nodded. Brendan left with quickened steps.

She found it strange that he would walk so far away just to take a call.

Perhaps it was just a call that he could not allow others to overhear. Deirdre did not pay too much attention to the matter. She seized the opportunity to pull her phone out of her pocket during this period. Her phone had been completely silent for two whole days. She could not see the missed calls or text messages on her phone, so she could not tell if she had missed Kyran's call while she was at the party.
