Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27 You’re Coming Home With Me

Brendan was so infuriated that his eyes turned beet red. He had never been relegated to second place by a woman before. He had never felt this way before!

“Is that how important that son of a b*tch is to you?! You’re acting as if you’ll die if you aren’t with him!”

Deirdre clenched her hands into fists. The way the maid had spoken-combined with how inferiorly he was treated in his own family – implied that he had suffered some serious bodily harm. And yet, Brendan did not give a damn about his suffering!

He had always been like this! He’d always treated everyone else’s lives as insignificant and expendable!

His apathy infuriated Deirdre. “You’re damn right, Brendan! I’ll die if I’m not with him! There, I said it! But what’s your excuse? You promised me, but did you do what you said you would?!”

“McKinnon !” Brendan growled and tightened his hold around her arms. His blood was boiling. “You just keep

testing my patience, don’t you? Do you know how easy it would be for me to make the Fullers and that son of a b* tch vanish? One order from me is all it would take. One order!”

Deirdre’s tantrum died off when she heard his reply. Of course. The Devil wielded unchecked power in this godforsaken city. She had seen it in action before… So how could she fight him and risk even more of his wrath?

She sank into necessary silence. Necessary because it was needed to save Sterling.

Brendan knew he had to stop Deirdre from being with Sterling any longer. If this went on, Brendan would never be able to possess even an inch of her heart. Grabbing her wrist, he ordered her, “Go home.”

Home? Did she even have a home?

She did not wriggle free from his grip, and her feet remained locked in place. “I’m going to see Sterling.”

She was the reason behind everything that had happened, so she had to see that it ended. She would not leave until she had closure!

“No!” Her stubborn attitude frustrated him. He was not going to let these two see each other again! “You’re coming home with me!”
