Resent, Reject, Regret의 모든 챕터: 챕터 791 - 챕터 800

“Don’t say that, Deirdre! It was me who took it upon myself to come. It wasn’t your fault. Moreover… Moreover!” Tobey spoke through his tightly-gritted teeth. “I should be the one apologizing to you. I was so weak and powerless that I couldn’t go against Brendan. I had to watch helplessly when he took you away.”“No…”Very few people were capable of going against Brendan, let alone someone without an influential background like Tobey. “However, I promise that I will figure out a way to save you for sure!” Tobey said emotionally. “I managed to whisk you away previously, so I will surely still stand a chance at doing that again. I’ve already reported it to the police as well. The Surstate police department will arrest Brendan, and I’ll surely figure out a way to get to you by then!”“It’s alright, Tobey,” Deirdre said with great difficulty. “You don’t have to go through the trouble for me anymore. What I told you the other day is all true. You should go home. Go back to Eastgene wit

Deirdre was stunned. Brendan checked on her and discovered that a blanket covered her legs, so his mind was set at ease. Meanwhile, he just realized a patch of his arm skin was scalded. It was fortunate that the chicken soup was not at boiling temperature, but it was hot enough to injure him. He went to wash his wound with cold water in the kitchen. Deirdre clenched her fists tightly. As she looked at the blurry figure, her confused gaze was tainted with a tinge of guilt. However, her gaze turned apathetic the next moment.She had indeed caused her injury, yet did he feel any ounce of guilt for causing her countless injuries?She would be duped by his trick If she were to feel sympathy for him now. After all, all he cared about was the baby, the successor of the Brighthalls. Brendan turned around and walked out of the kitchen to discover that the living room was empty after he was done washing. The blanket used to cover her legs was tossed on the floor.Brendan felt his arm be

“Where is the place you made wine during your childhood?”Deirdre was forced to look up at the man’s facial outline. In the next moment, she turned her head. “Is that important? You won’t let me go there anyway.”Brendan loathed Deirdre’s close relationship with Tobey when they were young. It felt as if the closer Tobey and Deirdre were, the further the distance between him and her grew. They had secrets between them that he was unaware of. “It’s not important, but I would like to know what he left for you.”“Are you scared?” Deirdre sneered and looked at Brendan while she said, “Are you scared that the object hidden by Tobey will make me distance myself from you?”Brendan did not speak but stared at her closely. Deirdre shoved away his hands calmly. “You can set your mind at ease if that is your concern. If I could leave you, why would Tobey have only told me today?”She made sense. If there was a possibility for her to turn the tables, Tobey would not have waited until now

Mrs. Engel’s gaze dimmed when she remembered something and said, “Is it because of Ophe—”“Mrs. Engel.” Deirdre stopped Mrs. Engel in time by saying, “It’s already in the past, so we don’t have to bring it up again. Men are always moving forward.”“Yes, you’re right!” Mrs. Engel hastily nodded. She almost triggered Deirdre’s sadness but could not refrain from advising Deirdre in view of her past experience. “Mrs. Brighthall, perhaps I may not be right, but I know that Mr. Brighthall loves you now. He cares about you, and that is why he traveled far to look for me before finding me in a mountain valley. I broke a leg at the time, and he spent a lot of money to get me treatment. He told me that he didn’t want me to pay him back. Instead, he would like me to take care of you so that you’re happy.”‘So that I’m happy?’Deirdre’s gaze glistened with emotions. In the next moment, her gaze cooled down. Did Brendan not feel that he was going against his conscience when he lied to Mrs.

“If I were to tell you that I was completely unaware of the things that happened to you in prison, would you still hate me so much?”Brendan’s dark eyes glistened while his voice was tainted with drunkenness and hope.It was as if he were hoping to hear an answer that he wanted from Deirdre. “No.”In the next moment, his enthusiasm was dampened by the woman’s cold tone. Deirdre’s expression was filled with hatred. “If you did those things that hurt me because you hated me, I could only convince myself that I deserved what I got even if I couldn’t make sense of it. However, if you let me go through all those things when you weren’t even planning to hurt me, I will only hate you more.”The woman’s remark sounded crystal clear and put Brendan’s eager heart down in the dumps. He felt powerless. “You should sleep.”He lowered his gaze and got up from the bed next to her before walking out of the room. The room became quiet and empty instantly, leaving only the sound of the howl
