Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Because She No Longer Loved Him

But now Deirdre didn’t have any reason to force herself to eat something she disliked.

“Can’t you understand why I ate it in the past?” Deirdre took a deep breath. “Because at the time, the things you gave me were the most precious to me Back then, even though the ring that you were forced to buy me didn’t fit, I was reluctant to take it off at all I preferred to put something on the ring and wear it on my finger, but now…”

She shuddered as she breathed but didn’t continue Brendan, however, looked like he had received a blow in the face and had found the answer himself

It was because Deirdre no longer loved him. Hence, she wouldn’t treat whatever he bought as a treasure The pastry had melted into a puddle of butter on the ground, as she didn’t need to force herself to eat this

anymore.

Brendan felt a sudden heartache and felt so stuffy that he had difficulty breathing.

He didn’t understand why he would feel uncomfortable and furious However, he clearly felt that something was separating him and Deirdre

This made him feel extremely uncomfortable. He furrowed his brows as he said, “Deirdre, I didn’t force you to do anything when we got married. I won’t force you to do anything now either. I won’t force you to eat this pastry if you refuse to. You don’t have to compromise.”

“Yes, you’ve never forced me” Deirdre jeered “It was all wishful thinking on my part, so I can only blame myself for feeling contempt. You’re innocent indeed”

Brendan responded with a change in his expression. “McKinnon, do you have to be so sarcastic?”

Deirdre admitted that she had spoken aggressively and with resentment. But she was not blaming Brendan, only herself.

If she hadn’t been so ignorant back then and had clearly understood that she and Brendan were people from two different worlds, she might still have been an ordinary person with her own freedom.

“No, I don’t. I’m just telling the truth.” Deirdre lowered her eyes and looked tired as she said, “I’m exhausted, so I’ll go rest.”

She turned and left. However, she had only taken two steps when Brendan suddenly grabbed her wrist.” Haven’t you eaten yet? Don’t tell me that your stomach has gotten better?”

“I’m not hungry.”

Deirdre didn’t feel hungry indeed. She had just woken up, and due to the smell of meat floss and butter just now, she felt nauseated and had no appetite at all.

“Eat something even if you aren’t hungry.” With a frigid face, Brendan opened the refrigerator. There was everything one could want in it, but because he had limited cooking skills, he just took out some noodles and ordered Deirdre, “Go and sit at the dining table.”

Deirdre did what she was told while Brendan took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and started cooking. There were loud noises in the kitchen, but Deirdre merely sat blankly on the chair. She had no idea what Brendan was doing.

Brendan had not only bought her dessert, but he was also cooking for her himself. After all, he had always been a fan of cleanliness, and what he disliked the most was the smell of oily smoke.

While Deirdre was thinking while suffering from a headache, Brendan’s phone on the table rang.

“Brendan, it’s your phone.”

Brendan was really busy and had no free hands, so he sullenly said without turning his head, “Pick it up.”

Deidre picked up the phone and fumbled to press the answer button. Just as she pressed it to her ear, she heard Charlene’s gentle and timid voice. “Bren, I’ve reached your office, but you aren’t here. Where are you? I cooked your favorite porridge for you today. Come and eat it while it’s still hot.”

Deirdre didn’t feel anything in reaction to the intimacy expressed by Charlene’s words. She was not surprised at all that the relationship between Brendan and Charlene remained unchanged.

Because of the incident that had occurred yesterday, Brendan had allowed Charlene to go to his office and bring him porridge.
