FreeNovelChapter 231 Meeting Ophelia Again
Just like Madame Brighthall’s remark, Deirdre had been staying at home because she was not
presentable.
Brendan wanted to add on, but his phone rang. Sawyer’s voice came from the other end when he
accepted the phone call. “Mr. Brighthall, Madame McKinnon has arrived. Shall I let her enter the
mansion now? Or…”
Brendan was about to command Sawyer to let her in when he saw Deirdre abruptly lift her head, and
her eyes lit up. Hence, he changed his command to “Just let her wait outside.”
He put down the phone and asked, “Would you like to welcome her on your own? Let me take you
there.” Deirdre couldn’t restrain her excitement. While nodding her head, she tidied up her messy hair
nervously. Even though she had an ugly face, she still hoped that her appearance wouldn’t scare
Ophelia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith Brendan’s support, Deirdre went down the stairs and went straight to the door.
From afar, Brendan had seen the woman at the door.
Even though he clearly understood that the woman was a stranger whose voice was similar to Ophelia,
he was still surprised after seeing her clearly.
A complete stranger had suddenly become just like Ophelia, even from her clothes, behavior, and facial
features.
Brendan suddenly felt a hint of hope from his uneasiness.
It seemed that this woman had put in a lot of effort. Would she be able to hide the truth so that it
wouldn’t raise Deirdre’s suspicions at all?
“Dee Dee? Is it you?”
Deirdre paced forward on her own. When she heard the haggard voice with a hint of thrill, she suddenly
turned the sound’s direction, and her blank eyes were wide open. Even though she only saw a pitch-

“Mom…” She bit her lower lip and reached out her hands.
The middle-aged woman paced forward and held Deirdre’s hands. Her voice sounded extremely
shocked as she asked, “How did you become like this? Your face… and your eyes? Are you okay?”
Deirdre wept with joy. She shook her head desperately. “I’m okay. I just accidentally hurt myself. Bren
has been trying to heal my eyes. Soon, I’ll be able to see again.”
It was just a casual excuse Deirdre had made up, but it turned Brendan’s eyes gloomy. He used to
have such a thought, but he had been wondering whether Deirdre would still rely on him and whether
this lie could be sustained.
The answer was obvious. Therefore, he could only maintain the status quo by letting Deirdre remain
blind. “Really? It’s good then.” The woman caressed Deirdre’s face and said worryingly, “I believe that
Brendan. is good to you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t take me here to meet you immediately after I was
healed. Dee Dee, I’m sorry for all these years. Your mom is back now.”
As soon as Deirdre heard it, she bit her lower lip and had an emotional breakdown. She hugged

She had never lost her composure like this. She always maintained her calmness, restraining herself
and
being invulnerable. Even when Brendan treated her ruthlessly back then, she just lowered her head
and refused to shed a single tear.
The only tenderness Deirdre had, she gave it to Ophelia.
At that moment, Brendan suddenly became jealous.
Even though he knew very well that he shouldn’t become jealous because it was perfectly normal for
Deirdre to rely on Ophelia, he couldn’t help but think that it would be great if Deirdre would rely on him
instead.
Maeve was somewhat touched. She looked at Deirdre with tenderness while patting on Deirdre’s back.
Silly girl, stop crying. Those who don’t know might think that I’ve mistreated you.”
It took Deirdre a while to recover. When she heard that, she chuckled.
But very quickly, she was stunned.
