Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 Have You Fallen in Love With Him

Brendan furrowed his eyebrows. “Stop flattering yourself, Deirdre.”

“Am I wrong though? He defied your order when he saved me from the storeroom, so you were pissed off and punished him in that manner, right?” Deirdre thought about how anyone who helped her would end up in a tragic state and smiled bitterly.

“In your perception, I deserve to die, right?”

“Deirdre!” Brendan said in a stern voice, his dark eyes tainted with coldness. “Your survival is none of my business, nor is Sam being sent to the casino. He’s only sent back to where he’s supposed to be!”

Deirdre’s eyes reddened with tears. “Let him come back. I shall acknowledge my mistake to you, Brendan.”

She was most afraid of someone else suffering hardships because of her.

If you feel it’s infuriating that I was saved, I will go to the storeroom, and you can keep me there for ten days to two weeks!”

Brendan took a step forward and clutched Deirdre’s lower jaw so hard that she took a step back from the pain. She pushed herself against the banister as she looked at Brendan’s dark, raging eyes.

The main reason Brendan had sent Sam away was no more than Sam having feelings for Deirdre. Brendan would not allow himself to keep a man with feelings for Deirdre near her.

Yet, he did not expect Deirdre to approach him and plead for Sam helplessly. In fact, she would even return to the storeroom, which almost killed her.

“When have you grown so close to him? You don’t even mind getting yourself killed just because of him! Do you know what being kept in the storeroom for ten days to two weeks means for you? You won’t even be able to survive a day there in your current state!”

Deirdre was shaking in pain and answered in a hoarse voice, “I understand.”

“If you understand, why do you still…” All of a sudden, Brendan’s voice halted to a stop, leaving only coldness emanating from his eyes. His eyes were locked on Deirdre’s face without looking away for a moment. “You’re risking your life so much. Could it be that you’ve fallen in love with Sam?”

Brendan felt as if his heart was wrenched ferociously as soon as he made the remark. Other than him, Deirdre was incredulous too.

“Love?

She was caught in a daze. ‘It takes too much to love someone. I can no longer love again, and I don’t dare to love pnymore…

The more Brendan thought about it, the more furious he was “Deirdre, you put your feelings for Sterling entirely out of your mind just because he’s not in this city anymore. You’ve shifted your attention to loving another person Why is your love so cheap!?”

Just like how she was in love with him, yet she turned into a different person who loathed him so much in just two years

“I don’t” Deirdre breathed heavily, her fists clenched tightly, and she muttered to herself, “Brendan, I just don’t want to owe it to anybody.”

“Don’t want to owe it to anybody? The excuse was simply ludicrous in Brendan’s perception.

“How do you still find the nerve to say that you don’t want to owe it to anybody? You owe Charlene so much that it’s immeasurable!”

Upon saying that, the phone in Brendan’s pocket rang. After taking the call, he heard Charlene’s servant say, “Please come over quickly, Mr. Brightbhall Miss McKinney shut herself in the room and refused to come out since yesterday evening. It’s past noon now, and she hasn’t even consumed a drop of water. If this were to continue…”

Brendan grew anxious. He hung up the call and was about to head downstairs when Deirdre grabbed Brendan’s arm. “Brendan, please let Sam come back. I’m begging you. I’ll do anything that you want me to do!”

‘She is constantly begging for Sam to come back. After Sterling’s departure, now there’s Sam that she would die just to be with him.”

Brendan felt infuriated for no apparent reason. He flung Deirdre’s hands and said, “Who do you think you are to beg me? With everything you did, it’s already considered merciful for me not to let you die a thousand times!”
