Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131 The Unexpected Present

In the end, he shoved Charlene away. “This is unfair to you. It’s getting late. Rest well.”

Upon saying that, he headed to the master bedroom by himself to rest, leaving Charlene standing alone in the corridor. Her face, which was delicately made up, looked ready to crumble at that very moment, and she was clenching her teeth in rage.

She remembered that he had slept with Deirdre the night before she had come to the villa, yet he had used unfairness as a reason to reject her. ‘Is he really scared that it would be unfair to me, or is he utterly unwilling…”

Charlene did not have the courage to think any further. She lowered her beautiful gaze, thinking that she needed to work faster. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable if Deirdre were to get

pregnant.

The next morning, Brendan got up very early to work on official business. After he was done, he told the driver, “Go to the nearest pet shop.”

“Pet shop?” The driver was surprised. “Aren’t you allergic to pets, Mr. Brighthall?”

“Forget it, just take me there.”

The driver did not have the courage to ask any more questions. He hastily drove to the nearest pet shop. Brendan opened the car door as soon as the car stopped and entered the pet shop located opposite the

car.

He almost had to cover his nose with his handkerchief because he was allergic to dog hair. He furrowed his eyebrows tightly but he did not cower. He sized up the dogs in the cages repeatedly with his eyes.

The pet shop owner approached him with a smile. “Have you found a pet that you like, sir? I can take it out of the cage for you to look at it up close.”

“It’s fine.” Brendan backed further away and tried to remember the puppy’s appearance with great effort. ” I would like to get a black puppy with brown fur on top of its head. About one month old.”

The pet shop owner felt troubled, as it would not be easy to get a puppy with brown fur on top of its head. In addition, the customer had requested a specific age. “Sir, your request is…”

“Too difficult?” Brendan pulled his black card out of his wallet and tossed it on the table. “Money is not an issue if you can get it.”

The pet shop owner beamed widely at once. “It’s not difficult! It’s not difficult at all! I’ll go and look for one now!”

In the end, the pet shop owner reached out to many breeders and spent more than three hours until he finally found a suitable puppy.

The puppy was kept in a cage. After paying for the puppy, the driver took the cage. By then, the back of Brendan’s hand was already covered in a red rash.

“Mr. Brighthal!” The driver could not help feeling astonished. “You’re having an allergic reaction. Would you like to go to the hospital?”

Brendan was unbothered. “It’s fine. I’ll be fine after getting some medicine. Let’s head back.”

“Sure.”

Brendan got out of the car, holding the cage after he reached the villa. The puppy curled up in the cage in fear as he headed upstairs and knocked on Deirdre’s door.

Deirdre was lying on the bed in a daze, so she paid no attention to the knocking sound. Brendan turned the doorknob and discovered that it was locked from the inside. He could not help feeling infuriated. Deirdre, I’m going to count to three. Open the door.”

Deirdre opened the door before he could count to three. Her face was slightly pale due to lack of sleep, and she looked exhausted. “How can I help you?”

Brendan found the sight of her infuriating. “Don’t tell me that you didn’t sleep the whole night because of the dog.”

“I slept.”

Deirdre answered truthfully. However, she had woken up frequently during the night and she’d had a tormented sleep all night long.

Brendan had visited her room last night and knew that Deirdre was telling the truth. He suppressed his anger and placed the cage on the coffee table. “Come and open this.”

The

puppy did not have the courage to whine because it was afraid, so Deirdre did not notice its presence. She felt her way to the coffee table in confusion and she was stunned when she felt the cage. She stretched out her hand and her face turned ghastly pale instantly when she felt the dog’s body.

“Gah!”

She hastily pulled back her hand. The cage was knocked over, and the puppy was so startled that it screamed. She fell to the ground, her face drained of blood and her body shaking uncontrollably.
