Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1010 Don’t You Care?
Deirdre pretended not to know on purpose.Brendan’s black eyes were dull and lifeless. He wondered whether Deirdre really trusted him or… she didn’t care.At the thought of the second possibility, his heart began to twitch, and he couldn’t stop it.Brendan chuckled as if he was mocking himself. “Deirdre, I’d prefer you questioning and suspecting me. After all, I lied to you. And this is better than remaining silent and not caring about what happened to me.”Deirdre was stunned for a moment and slowly clenched her fists. “Is there no other possibility?”Brendan looked up at Deirdre as she said, “I just believe you.“Brendan, I believe there is nothing between you and Miss Collins. If you had thoughts of marrying other women to strengthen yourself, you wouldn’t have disregarded your reputation in the previous matter.“Since you were just attending a social event, how can that be considered lying to me? You just didn’t go to the company.” Deirdre said in a light and calm tone as
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1011 Deirdre Is Everything to Me
Brendan glanced at Deirdre’s red lips with desire, raised his head, and greeted, “Aunt McKinnon.”Ophelia said, “I saw both of you hugging each other from upstairs. Have you made up with each other?”“Hmm.” Brendan nodded and held Deirdre’s hand. “I explain everything that happened clearly to Deirdre, so she forgives me.”There was no way to tell Ophelia’s mood from her expression, but she cracked a rigid smile as if she was still infuriated by the incident earlier.“Alright then. I can’t meddle with both of you when you’re in a couple’s quarrel. However, I will never let you off if you do a disservice to Deirdre, even if she forgives you.”Brendan’s expression was extremely sincere when he said, “Yes, Aunt McKinnon. Deirdre is everything to me. I swear that I will never let her endure any injustice, and I won’t allow other women to challenge her place.”Deirdre was stunned for a moment while Ophelia did not comment further. She came to stop Brendan when he was preparing to ent
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1012 She Wondered Whether She Was Overthinking It
Deirdre shut her eyes and thought about it for a while before she fell asleep. She put on a jacket and headed downstairs after she got up the next morning and discovered that Brendan was already at the dining table.Deirdre sat beside her and lowered her head to eat her oats. Her hair was hanging loosely around her shoulders, so strands of her hair almost dipped into the oats. Brendan wanted to help her push away her hair subconsciously, yet he pulled back his extended hand. “Deirdre, don’t get your hair in the oats.”“Hair?” Deirdre was confused until she tidied up the loose hair around her forehead. She came to realize the situation and was stunned for a moment. Brendan would have already pushed away her hair if this were the past. She wondered whether she was overthinking it.Deirdre lowered her eyes and continued to have her oats with her head lowered.Ophelia came downstairs as well and chatted for a while until Brendan received a call and headed to the study. Ophelia
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1013 Stay Away From Her if You Respect Her
Brendan pulled back his hand that was holding Deirdre’s hand rapidly soon afterward. Ophelia’s warning from last night came into his mind. “Brendan, if you respect and love Deirdre, stop behaving inappropriately toward her. You haven’t married her, so don’t let her live indecently. This is also very uncomfortable for me, her mother, who is watching.“I won’t stop you anymore when you’re really planning on marrying her to make her your wife. Otherwise, I’m considering what Deirdre means to you in your heart.”Brendan felt extremely troubled but could understand Ophelia’s intention. It was because the situation with Emily yesterday had gone too far. It was already utmost magnanimous of Ophelia not to lose her temper after learning about the false report. He did not wish to continue to disappoint Ophelia in any other way. Hence, he could only bear with it despite his strong urge to wrap his arms around Deirdre. He had to learn to respect Deirdre. Deirdre was caught off g
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1014 How Can I Trust You
Emily’s goal was not innocent. She had utilized public opinion to bond him to her first. Then, she suddenly announced that she would treat Deirdre’s eyes. It would be impossible for him not to be on guard. “If you really want my colleague to treat Miss McKinnon’s eyes, we can do that, of course.”Emily continued to smile consistently. Brendan furrowed his eyebrows. In the next moment, Emily said, “You’re going to have to take the trouble to wait a little longer then, Mr. Brighthall.”“What do you mean?” Brendan exuded coldness from his entire body, and he was one step away from interrogating her. “Didn’t you claim that you would pass me the contact method of the ophthalmologist if I were to agree to your request?”“Yes.” Emily nodded and appeared slightly vexed. “I can give you his contact method, of course. However, it’s quite unlucky that you want to commission him to treat Miss McKinnon because my colleague has left the research center to visit his mentor.”Brendan furrowe

“I’m not referring to your relationship with Miss McKinnon, but I believe that it should be very difficult for you to go public with the relationship, right?”Emily’s remark reminded Brendan there was nothing he could do to make his relationship with Deirdre go public. He was bound to Emily now. If he were to be seen interacting with Deirdre, the latter would most certainly be under attack, and his reputation, which he had salvaged with great effort, would be affected as well. It was possible that the next step would be what those people wanted him to take. Moreover, Brendan discovered that those people were not just targeting him after Ophelia’s incident. The doubt in Brendan’s eyes faded bit by bit.Emily smiled just as gracefully as she usually did. “Mr. Brighthall, I understand your concerns. An outstanding person of any gender would be noticed by others, let alone someone as exceptional as you. I wasn’t aware of your relationship initially, so I had feelings for you for

Moreover, Brendan had actually used the word ‘lover’ to introduce Deirdre. Emily felt extremely unpleasant in her heart. ‘Who the heck do you think you are, Deirdre?‘You’re just a pretty face. If you were just a little uglier, Brendan would be so disgusted that he wouldn’t even be bothered to take a second glance at you for sure!’“Ah, it’s Miss Collins.”Deirdre was aware of Emily’s visit, so she was not surprised. She stretched out her hand in a courteous manner. “Hello, I’m Deirdre McKinnon.”Emily was jolted back to reality. She shook Deirdre’s hand and complimented her. “I heard of your name long ago and heard that your beauty is so breathtaking. You’ve enticed Mr. Brighthall so much that he can’t be bothered to check out other women. Now that I get to meet you in person, I find that to be true. I figured that everyone would only want to look at your face if you were to show up in public.”She smiled sweetly. Deirdre was stunned for a while.For some unknown reason, Emi
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1017 Speak to You in Private
“Sure.” Brendan held Deirdre’s fingertips. “I’ll wait for you at home.”Deirdre smiled and headed out with Emily. After leaving the house, Emily teased with a spurious smile, “You seem to have a really close relationship with Mr. Brighthall, Miss McKinnon. This is my first time seeing Mr. Brighthall care so much about a woman. He couldn’t take his eyes off you. Had I not declined his offer, I figured that he would be following you without leaving.”Deirdre had no idea how she should respond, so she said, “He’s just worried about me.”“Is it because you’re pregnant?”Deirdre nodded.Emily smiled and said, “I think so too.”Then, she got into the car and helped Deirdre to open the door. Deirdre took a seat. She was under the assumption that Emily would inquire about something else, yet she did not speak much along the way. Instead, she kept herself busy with her tasks. She made calls over and over again as if she was trying to show Deirdre that her status was equal to Brendan
