Chapter 522 I Won’t Force You into Making Your Decision, Okay?

“One thing’s for sure. I don’t want anything to do with him.”

Kyran steadied his breath and turned the steering wheel. “If this is the origin of your hangup, then you don’t have to

worry about it at all. Brendan will never know that you’re alive. Not in his entire lifetime.”

Deirdre’s eyes widened. She was taken aback and pretty perplexed. “Where’s that confidence coming from?”

He studied her calmly. “You said it yourself. Charlene did all of this for Brendan. Her motive was to ensure that you’ll

never be near him. In other words, it’s well within her motive to ensure Brendan knows nothing about the abduction

plot or your whereabouts. If he learns about the abduction and that she’s the one behind it, do you know how bad

her position’s going to be?”

Deirdre bit her lips. ‘He has a point, but…‘

“Do you really think she’s capable of hiding the whole plot from him?” she asked under her breath.

Kyran chuckled regretfully. “I wouldn’t underestimate her if I were you. She’s good at keeping many things in the

dark.”

He knew she would ruminate on her decision again, so he quickly added, “You also forget that you’re not alone. You

have me. I’ll communicate with the cops and make sure that you remain anonymous.

“Look, I’m not going to force you into a decision. What I’m saying is just do what your heart tells you to. Ask

yourself, does Charlene McKinney deserve to be brought to justice?”

Deirdre clenched her hands into fists and exhaled a long, long breath. Was there anything to hold her back

anymore?

“Kyran, I want… I want to inform the police! I want Charlene to be brought to justice!”

Kyran’s gaze softened. He held her nipping fingers and squeezed them gingerly before letting go. “Good. I’ll come

with you.”

In truth, he had been driving them back to the police station. A few minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance.

The two strode back into the hall, to the previous police officer’s surprise. “Mr., uh, Reed? Miss McKinnon? What’s

the matter?”

Deirdre balled her hands into fists in embarrassment. “Uh, I suddenly recalled who that person was in mid- journey,

so we returned.”

The police officer’s eyes twinkled. “Really? That’s awesome! Come on in!”

He almost could not contain his excitement. As soon as they fell into their seats, he asked, “So, who was

it?”

Deirdre took a deep breath. “Her name is Charlene McKinney.”

The police officer was stunned. “Wait, what?”

“Deirdre, Charlene legally changed her name,” reminded Kyran.

‘Changed her name? Oh. Of course. To the public, “Charlene McKinney” has been incarcerated. She must have

reinvented her identity so she can marry Brendan without any hitch or drama.‘

“Who is she now, then?”

Kyran replied, “Charli McKinsey.”

tee You into: Making Your Decision Okay!

The police officer shot a glance at Kyran and back at Deirdre. He typed the name into his laptop.” McKinsey, C–H–A–

R–L- Whoa! The famous socialite of Neve? Or-”

“Brendan Brighthall’s fiancee.” Deirdre finished his sentence. Then, a little apprehensively, she added, “Is it gonna

be a difficult one?”

The police officer laughed dryly. “Difficult how?”

“The fact that she’s connected to Brendan. It’s very likely that he will try to protect Charli from the law.”

At present, the police officer’s stare at Kyran was filled with shock. Still, he managed to recover enough to reply,

“Don’t worry about that, ma’am. Even if she was Mr. Brighthall’s actual, wife, the state still has the authority to

arrest her as long as she committed a crime. There is but one concern, though…”
