Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115 She Has Admitted to it

Cold beads of sweat streamed down Sterling’s face, and he groaned in agony from the pain of the glass shard stabbing into his palm.

Andre said ‘Oops’ and chuckled while he pulled back his leg. “I’m sorry, I was a little careless earlier. I haven’t gotten you injured, right?”

The restaurant manager was having a hard time regulating his breathing at the sight of a glass shard stabbing into Sterling’s palm. It was painful, yet he immediately stopped himself from speaking at the thought of Sterling almost getting him in

trouble.

There was only confusion in Deirdre’s eyes. She asked frantically, “What happened?”

“Nothing.” Andre stared at Sterling and enunciated his words clearly as he said, “Mr. Fuller was injured a little from his carelessness during the cleanup earlier.”

‘Injured?”

Deirdre’s mind went blank. ‘Sterling is a doctor. He can’t afford to get his hands injured.’

She hastily asked, “How do you feel, Sterling? I’ll do it!”

“Yes, don’t push yourself, Sterling.” Brendan flicked the cigarette between his fingers and sniggered. “No one can stand the pain of a glass shard stabbing into the palm. If you really can’t bear it anymore, let Deirdre do it. She will endure the hardship for you.”

‘What?’

Deirdre was shocked. ‘Glass shard stabbing into the palm?!’

Blood drained from her face, and she felt dizzy. She gnashed her teeth in preparation to run to Sterling, but Brendan blocked her between the table and the sofa. He spoke in a cruel tone with his hand grabbing her hair. “Sterling has yet to agree to swap with you. Behave yourself.”

‘Swap with me? Sterling will never agree to that!’

Brendan did it so she would accept the punishment helplessly. She would live in torment and agony if Sterling declined the offer. If Sterling were to agree to the offer, she would be sent to the dungeon for being ungrateful!

Any outcome would be a delight to Brendan.

Sterling refused to accept the offer, just as expected.

Brendan took a puff of the cigarette and exhaled on her face. “What a touching love story. You’re really good, Deirdre. He would rather destroy his hands than swap with you willingly.”

Deirdre loathed herself for being blind at this very moment because she could not see the severity of Sterling’s injury.

She sobbed, roared deeply, and clutched his arm tightly. “Brendan, you promised that you wouldn’t get him involved! You liar!”

Brendan found her tears an eyesore and looked at her in disgust. “You still have the nerve to bring that up, huh? I told you to exercise self-control and behave yourself in the past. Have you fulfilled your part, then? Since you violated the agreement on your side, why would I keep my promise then? You b*tch!”

Deirdre covered her mouth because she was deeply hurt by those words. ‘If you’re out to condemn someone, you can always trump up a crime.’

Brendan clutched her chin. He felt a knot in the pit of his stomach, yet he cracked a smile. “Are you in pain? You should feel the pain because Charlene was in a hundred times more pain than you when she took the sleeping pills and had to get a gastric lavage! It’s a thousand times more painful!”

Just as expected… He did it for Charlene. Brendan was so cruel because of her. He ruined her yesterday and was out to destroy Sterling’s hand today so his life pursuit would be forsaken.

She cried and was having an emotional breakdown bit by bit. She was about to lose her sense of pain.

She kept her head lowered, her reddened eyes all blank. She knew what Brendan

wanted from her.

“Let Sterling off… I was wrong. I admit that it was me who vilified Charlene. I was malicious, and I plotted a scheme to frame Charlene. I will take my punishment willingly.”

Brendan was stunned, and his heart was racing. He could not feel the pain when he crushed the cigarette butt in his palm.

‘Has she… admitted to it?

‘That’s unbelievable. I treated her that way yesterday, but she stubbornly refused to admit it. It felt like the most humiliating thing that has ever happened to her in her life, but now, she actually…’
