Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 She Deserves to Die

Brendan furrowed his eyebrows, while Sam immediately stepped forward and said, ” Mr. Brighthall… Ms. McKinnon is already experiencing an emotional breakdown, so she’s not able to withstand any more triggers.”

Brendan’s face turned green from anger. It was already getting dark, and it was not appropriate for Deirdre to be holding a dog’s corpse out there. Could she be planning to hold the dog for a whole night?

“Let go, Deirdre.” Brendan exhaled and said, “I’ll arrange for someone to give it a proper burial. It’s not going to die in peace if you continue to hold it like this.”

Deirdre turned a deaf ear to his advice and refused to let go. She would regret not taking a glance at her child for the rest of her life, and that was why she refused to let go of Bliss.

She wanted to keep it company, as she was certain that it was cold after lying on the ground for so long.

“Deirdre!” Brendan narrowed his eyes. The sky was growing darker and darker, and the bloody stench on her body was already starting to become pungent. He stretched out his hand and clutched her lower jaw. “Let go, you hear me?! If you don’t, I’ll make Sterling come and talk you out of it.”

Deirdre’s lips turned ghastly pale, and she bit her lower lip tightly at the mention of Sterling.

He was threatening her.

“Let go, quick!” Brendan shouted at her.

Sam was worried that the situation would worsen, so he consoled Deirdre softly. “Let go, Ms. McKinnon. I will give Bliss a proper burial.”

Bliss.

Deirdre felt like laughing in her dazed state when she heard the name. She found the name comical, as she had wanted the dog to live a blissful life. In the end, the dog had been reduced to its current state.

She now realized that she was a 100-percent jinx. No one around her would end up in a good place, but why was Brendan safe and sound? He and Charlene were the

ones who deserved to die.

Deirdre had no more tears to cry. She loosened her grip and placed Bliss carefully on

the lawn, as if she was afraid that it would hurt. Then, she began to dig up the ground with her hands, her head lowered.

The ground was not loose, so her nails cracked in the process and her hands were bloody.

Brendan found the sight an eyesore and clutched her wrists tightly. “That’s enough!”

Deirdre’s head was lowered as she said in a faint, weak voice, “Let go of me. Let me give it a proper send-off.”

She became very quiet, and Brendan had no clue what to do. This was precisely the reason that Deirdre managed to struggle free from his grip and continue to dig up the ground.

After digging a suitable hole, she placed Bliss inside and buried it gently.

“I hope you’ll be born to a good owner in your next life. Someone who isn’t me.”

It was the only hope that she had left.

When it ended, Brendan pulled her upstairs eagerly and washed her entire body with water.

The smell of blood was nauseating to him.

Deirdre sat on the icy tiles with her arms around her knees, not responding to any of his fiddling.

Brendan washed her hands and noticed that all her fingertips were injured. There were cuts from rocks on her hands, her nails were stuffed with soil, and she had bleeding lacerations.

He was infuriated. “It was just a dog!”

Deirdre finally reacted to the situation by raising her head and looking in his direction with an empty gaze.

Brendan knew that she was blind but could still feel the intense hatred in her she targeted him.

eyes as

“What?” Brendan was extremely agitated. “Are you going to blame the dog’s death on me? I told you from the day it came into the house that you should get rid of that troubling pet. You refused to follow my instructions and send it away. If you had, you wouldn’t have to go through this suffering now.”

Deirdre shut her eyes in despair. ‘Yes, I should have sent it away earlier. Bliss wouldn’t have died if I had done it sooner.’

Then, Brendan removed the bloody stench from her body and tossed her some

clothes. “Put these on.”
