Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100 Janitor

Brendan folded the note, his expression filled with agitation and his mind a chaotic

mess.

“Hey, what are you doing?” Sam suddenly noticed a woman sneaking around in the corridor and called out to her.

Brendan looked up to take a glance and saw a woman with a panicked expression standing nearby.

Sam was about to approach her, but she was so scared that she almost got down on her knees. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! It was my fault for disappointing Ms. McKinney… Please don’t call the police on me…

Sam was stunned for a moment. “What are you talking about?”

The woman muttered to herself with tears streaming down her face. “I knew that I shouldn’t have followed the blind woman’s instructions. I assumed that I was helping someone, yet I ended up putting Ms. McKinney in harm’s way…

Brendan’s pupils constricted. He got up swiftly and approached the woman with ant overbearing presence. “Speak properly! Whose instructions were you following?”

The woman bowed repeatedly at once because she had never been approached by such an overbearing man. Her body trembled in fear, and she said, “Mr. Brighthall! I’ tell you everything, Mr. Brighthall! That woman instructed me to do it. It was all her! It was all that woman’s fault!”

“Cut the crap!” Brendan looked down at her, his eyes burning with fury. “Speak properly!”

The woman calmed herself with great effort. “Uh… I used to work at this hospital as a janitor. I was doing my job as usual on the 19th, clearing out the trash in each room. When I reached Room 1209, the blind woman on the bed suddenly sought my help.

“She told me to squeeze her hands strenuously to puncture them with my nails. She would pay me handsomely for it. I asked her why, and she told me that she wanted to find a way to vilify Ms. McKinney. She wanted to captivate your heart again by doing so. She claimed that Ms. McKinney is your mistress, while she is your legal wife. I was so angry that I did her a favor. I didn’t expect that Ms. McKinney would kill herself today…”

She bawled loudly. “Ms. McKinney is such a kindhearted woman. She bought me food when everyone else despised me. How could I do something so immoral to her?

I don’t deserve to be human!”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about!” Before Brendan flew into a rage, Sam was so furious that he spoke out of turn. “I didn’t see you on the day Ms. McKinnon got injured!”

The woman faked tears. “I went into the room after Mr. Brighthall and Ms. McKinney left. You can check the surveillance footage if you don’t believe me.”

“That’s impossible…”

“Sam.” Brendan suddenly spoke, his entire body exuding coldness and his eyes filled with darkness. “Check the surveillance footage We’ll know everything by checking the surveillance footage. I will never let a liar off, no matter who that is!”

Sam’s heart was racing. “Sure.”

He went to check the surveillance footage but he did not expect that he would find footage of the janitor entering Deirdre’s room for real.

‘Could Deirdre have asked for it? No… If she had really asked for it, why would she have stopped me from informing Brendan for two consecutive days? On the other hand, I warned Brendan about the incident, and Brendan only noticed it when he entered the room.’

There was already nothing else to refute under the circumstances.

He returned, only to find out that the hospital had already admitted Charlene to a room. Brendan asked with a cold expression, “What did you find? Did the janitor enter Deirdre’s room?”

Sam appeared to be troubled. “Yes… The janitor did enter the room, but only for a short period of time. It didn’t seem like there was enough time for her to hurt Deirdre and leave. Besides…”

“So the janitor wasn’t lying, right?”

Brendan’s dark eyes had already turned cold, and his knuckles were white due to his tightly-clenched fists. His face was tense, and the veins in his arms were bulging.

Sam hastily said, “Mr. Brighthall! There must be a misunderstanding! Ms. McKinnon was frantic when she stopped me from telling you about her injury. If she really wanted to vilify Ms. McKinney, why didn’t she…”
