Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1343 This Won't Be the End
Deirdre found herself torn between laughter and tears. "He was just being polite. It was all in good fun, nothing serious. Besides, he's already married."Even if he is a flirt, can he compete with you? Don't think I didn't notice how you scared him off with your gaze before he could say anything else."Brendan's breath tickled the nape of her neck as he spoke in a righteous tone. "Your boyfriend was right there, yet he seemed oblivious.""That's enough." Deirdre pretended to be angry, puffing up her cheeks. "Joe stayed up late and came all the way here to bring us a blanket. If you're not grateful, at least be kind with your words, okay?"Sensing Deirdre's displeasure, Brendan paused, hugged her, and asked, "Does he really have a wife?""Yes, they've been high school sweethearts for over ten years. They have a strong relationship," she replied."Good." Brendan playfully nibbled on Deirdre's neck. "Otherwise, I wouldn't feel at ease seeing him so friendly with you."Brendan's je

"You're right." Deirdre perked up, pulled away the blanket, and got out of bed. As Deirdre was brushing her teeth, Brendan informed her, "Joe came and invited us to breakfast this morning."Deirdre, not surprised, asked, "How did you respond?""I told him that you were exhausted from being with me last night and needed to sleep in a little today, so he left," he replied.While gargling with water, Deirdre choked and coughed repeatedly.Brendan patted her back, grabbed a towel, and wiped away the foam from her lips. Teasingly, he said, "You're an adult, yet you get choked while gargling. Luckily, you didn't swallow the water."Blushing, Deirdre retorted, "It's all your fault!""My fault?" Brendan raised an eyebrow. "How is it my fault?"Too embarrassed to say it, Deirdre muttered, "What do you mean by 'exhausted from being with you last night'? Joe will surely misunderstand...""Misunderstand what?"Deirdre couldn't voice her thoughts, but Brendan continued. "Deirdre, differe

Deirdre wasn't a crowd favorite, yet Brendan made her appear highly sought after.They walked to the yard near Deirdre's previous residence and noticed that weeds had taken over in less than a year, reaching half a meter in height. Subconsciously, Deirdre started looking for tools to remove the weeds, and Brendan joined in to help.As Brendan looked up, he saw Deirdre gazing at him with a gratified expression. "What's going on?" he asked.Deirdre smiled and replied, "Nothing. I was just reminded of how you used to be when you were Kyran. Back then, you would take charge of all the tasks and assist me, just like you're doing now."Brendan felt a twinge of jealousy. "I can still do that now. You don't have to dwell on the past and Kyran."Caught between laughter and tears, Deirdre replied, "Don't you think you're being childish, Brendan? You and Kyran are the same person, after all."Uneasily, Brendan turned his head away. "But I can't remember anything now, so Kyran feels like a s

Deirdre patted Brendan's hand, and he loosened his grip around her waist. He spoke in a righteous tone. "Be more careful next time.""Don't listen to his nonsense." Deirdre glared at Brendan as a warning. "We were just fooling around."Joe, you're here so early. Is lunch ready?"Joseph nodded. "Yes, yes. My wife works quickly, and she has already finished cooking lunch. We're just waiting for you to come and eat."As the three of them headed to the Talbots' home, they noticed a pregnant woman getting water from a hand pump. Joseph quickly stepped forward to stop her, concerned about the situation."Josie, didn't I tell you to leave these back-bending chores to me? What if you hurt yourself?"Josie Schooler appeared frustrated. "This is the time for me to exercise. Besides, I can't stand doing nothing. Why would pumping water be bad for me?"Joseph tried to appease her. "But you're already going through so much. You purposely prepared lunch for my friend and her boyfriend today.

Josie cupped her face and expressed her concerns, "I'm not pretty, and I worry that he will dislike me when I gain weight from the pregnancy. But he treats me just as well, if not better, and he's even more affectionate now."Curiosity piqued, Josie asked Deirdre, "How is Mr. Brighthall during your pregnancy?"After a moment of thought, Deirdre replied, "He's almost the same as Joe, I suppose. But his temperament is not as good as Joe's. He can be quite arrogant and self-conceited."He acts differently when another man shows kindness to me. He becomes ill-mannered and rude."Josie was astonished. "Mr. Brighthall behaves that way too? Oh my! Deirdre, you must be so charming that a man of Mr. Brighthall's status fears losing you."Deirdre was unsure whether to cry or laugh. "It's not that he's afraid of losing me, but he doesn't like it when others try to take what is his.""No, no, no!" Josie shook her head seriously. "I don't think so. I'm sure Mr. Brighthall behaves this way bec

Joseph also recovered from his surprise and furrowed his eyebrows tightly. Previously, he had looked at Brendan in fear, but now his gaze held pity."It's no wonder Mr. Brighthall is so guarded against me. So, it turns out that you... have a history, Deirdre!" exclaimed Joseph.Joseph continued. "When did you have a relationship with Tobey? But let it be! You shouldn't think about other men since you've decided to be with Mr. Brighthall. Mr. Brighthall is good-looking and rich. He treats you well too. Where else would you find a man like him?""That's right, Deirdre." Josie chimed in, her heart melting as she looked at Brendan's grievous yet dejected expression. "Since you're pregnant, it means that the past is in the past. As the CEO of Brighthall Group, Mr. Brighthall is still willing to come to our humble place for you. He helps with the dishes and removes the weeds. What more could you ask for? Be good with Mr. Brighthall, and don't talk about leaving him anymore!""Right, don'

Before Deirdre could speak, Brendan made a suggestion. "Perhaps Joseph and his wife have already had dinner. Can you ask them if they would like some? We can send it over to them as a token of appreciation for cooking us lunch this afternoon."Deirdre was surprised. Given Brendan's personality, she had assumed he would rather throw away the pasta than share it with others like a food-guarding dog. She didn't expect him to behave differently today.Curious, she asked, "Why would you think of sending the pasta to them?"Brendan responded nonchalantly. "To indirectly appease them and make them less likely to interfere if there's any progress between you and Tobey. It's a win-win situation."Deirdre was rendered speechless. It seemed Brendan had lied when he talked about considering Tobey as her older brother and treating him the same way. Afterward, Brendan brought over the pasta, and Deirdre wondered what he had told Joseph and his wife.Josie took the opportunity to engage in an

Brendan smirked and nodded. "Sure, noted. I can provide the funding for the tram in the name of the Brighthall Group."He then added, "However, I have a request."The village head's excitement turned to nervousness, anticipating a difficult request from Brendan.With a hint of fear, he asked, "May I know what your request is, Mr. Reed?"Brendan glanced inside the house before answering. "You will persuade Deirdre to visit the resort when she wakes up. Just be careful not to mention the hot spring."When Deirdre woke up, the village head used every means possible to persuade her. He pulled out all the stops, using his seniority, boasting, and various tricks. Deirdre, in a state of confusion, agreed to go.It wasn't until later that Deirdre realized something and questioned Brendan, "Why is he so enthusiastic today? He's determined to make me agree to go to the resort. It's not a trap, is it?"Brendan quickly refuted her suspicions. "How could it be a trap? As the village head, he

"Where is she?"Brendan stared at him, utterly surprised. Sean's voice trembled a bit, but his eyes held a clear and hopeful gaze.Brendan finally calmed down and looked behind him. "There, that's your mother."This was the first time Sean had spoken. Deirdre felt her mind buzzing. When she snapped back to reality, she extended her hand. "Sean, come here."Sean's eyes held gentle amazement. He was intelligent—perhaps he had sensed it on the way there. Thus, his feelings were a blend of happiness and satisfaction.He felt joy that Deirdre was going to be his mother.Being a kid, he took a few steps but couldn't stop his tears, holding onto Deirdre firmly.Deirdre suppressed her own urge to cry and crouched down, wiping away his tears. "Do you... hate mom for not being there and not recognizing you?"Sean shook his head frantically. "As long as you're here… That's enough…"Deirdre hugged him tightly, and Brendan approached, wrapping them both in his embrace.When they brought S
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1572 The Parkers is Entrusted to You
"I was too young back then, still sulking with my father," Brendan replied after recalling his childhood.Arthur chuckled. "Kids will be kids, after all. Besides, your father was an excellent businessman, and you've followed in his footsteps. I've heard about your impressive success with the business in Neve. You're truly talented. With the Parkers under your control, I can finally relax." Brendan thought it was just praise from an elder. He was about to give a humble response when he got surprised by the rest of the statement. This made him freeze in place."The Parkers?" Deirdre was equally surprised."What's wrong?" Arthur beamed. "Don't you both already have children? Although you've divorced, your relationship is still strong. Don't tell me there's no thought of remarriage?""Remarriage? It's not the right time yet." Deirdre blushed from the teasing."It'll come eventually. If that's the case, then you are both part of the Parkers now. You're my only daughter, and he's my s
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1571 Revenge and Redemption
Beneath the envelope lay the evidence. Deirdre stared at it for a long time, with Brendan by her side, offering silent support.The next day, they boarded a plane back to Southedge. Within three days, news of the top political figure's downfall due to corruption spread like wildfire throughout Southedge, even captivating the interest of other cities.Upon learning the full story in his study, Arthur's aging face was stained with tears of regret. "If only I had known sooner... I wouldn't have let your mother leave like that."Deirdre lowered her gaze and handed the letter to Arthur. "My mother explains in the letter that her departure was a voluntary sacrifice to protect everyone. She never blamed you."Arthur gazed at the letter, struggling to find the right words.Deirdre left silently, shutting the door.-Ryker was also brought to the police station. Under Sterling's methods, he confessed to the murders. Emily faced the same outcome.All of them waited for their trials.-
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1570 The Evidence to Turn the Tables
The distance from Southedge to Village Alnwick was immense, yet Brendan displayed unwavering resolve."Then let's depart today," he said.As Deirdre bid farewell to Arthur, an unexpected glimmer of sadness flickered in his eyes. "Visiting your mother's grave, huh? Okay, go ahead. Take care of yourself, don't overexert.""Yes," Deirdre replied. Faced with Arthur's hesitant gaze, she felt compelled to add, "Dad, I'll be back."Arthur met Deirdre's gaze, hope rekindling in his eyes.Deirdre softly sighed. "You're my father, my family. Of course, I'll return." "Really? You mean it?" Arthur's excitement made his hands tremble slightly. He held onto Deirdre as if wanting to convey something, but all that emerged was a murmur, "Then please return early... Come back as soon as you can...""Sure. I have a friend coming over later today. Take care of him. Oh, and my boyfriend is here, too. Don't worry about the specifics. I'll explain everything upon my return."As she stepped out, Bren
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1569 Back to Village Alnwick
"Brendan Brighthall?" Ryker wiped away his own nosebleed. "How did you manage to come from Neve? Didn't I ask Emily to keep an eye on you? That useless fool who can't even accomplish simple tasks.""Choosing to control minds with drugs all along, you should have anticipated this outcome." Brendan acted roughly. As he got up, he took the key from Ryker and placed Ryker on a chair.Deirdre clenched Brendan's sleeve tightly. Sensing her tension, Brendan embraced her to calm her down."It's okay. I'm sorry for coming back so late, making you go through this.""It's not your fault. Your timely arrival saved me from further trouble. It's my own foolishness... I let him find something to use against me," Deirdre said, shaking her head weakly.Brendan frowned, cupping Deirdre's face. "He wasn't someone easily deceived, to begin with. You've done well. I'm the one who brought you into this danger, which is unforgivable."Brendan's dark eyes were filled with intense emotions. He had arrive
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1568 The Plan Was Exposed
Deirdre hugged Ryker, resting her head on his chest as he patted her back. "By the way, you're not curious about where I went after I left early this morning?"Deirdre realized the hidden meaning behind Ryker's words, retreated from Ryker's embrace little by little, and looked at him.Ryker's eyes, as enigmatic as ever, held a clarity that seemed to pierce through everything. "I went to the hospital."He didn't wait for Deirdre to respond. "Because I was curious why I was so sleepy last night for no reason. Any ordinary person might chalk it up to exhaustion. But I know my body too well. You drugged me."Deirdre felt a sudden chill running down her spine.Ryker took a step forward casually, but his eyes were full of killing intent. "I underestimated you, Deirdre. Your acting skills are far more impressive than I imagined. You nearly had me fooled. You deserve an Oscar. What a pity that you're now in my hands."Deirdre retreated abruptly, but she found a cold wall barring her esca
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1567 The Key
Deirdre was momentarily stunned as she watched Arthur search around the study. Eventually, he uncovered a rusty key from a drawer.Arthur raised the key. "Is this what your mother desired?"Deirdre's mind raced, thoughts swirling. "Is this from my mother?"A hint of disappointment shadowed Arthur's eyes as he nodded. "This is the only thing she left me before she departed. She didn't explain why. She just made me promise to keep this key and never search for her."Although I agreed, the thought of it weighed heavily on me. So, I hid the key in a corner of the drawer instead of treating it like any other possession. In hindsight, I shouldn't have made that promise. I shouldn't have let her go alone."Deirdre's voice wavered, confusion evident. But as realization dawned, her heart raced. "Can you give me the key?"Arthur earnestly nodded, his expression solemn. "This belongs to your mother. I'm willing to give it to you whenever you're ready. To be honest, I'm relieved to pass it o
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1566 Something From Mother
The butler nodded and guided Deirdre to the study's door. Gathering her emotions, she pushed it open.Arthur's attention was on some documents, but the door's creak made him look up. He met Deirdre's gaze, causing a subtle flicker of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes."Deirdre..." He set aside the file. "Did you just wake up? Hungry? I'll have the kitchen prepare something."Deirdre shook her head, closing the door gently."Not hungry. I came to talk.""Everything okay?" Concern colored Arthur's expression. Though he seemed worried she might leave, he tried to hide it. "Go ahead. I'm with you."Deirdre found his reaction slightly amusing. "I'm not leaving."A spark returned to Arthur's eyes. "Then what's up?"As Deirdre grew more serious, she said, "I came to Southedge not just for a visit. I want to know if my mother left something with you before she passed. Something significant.""Left something?" Arthur was puzzled. "She left several things. Which one do you mean?"De
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1565 He's His Child
Brendan's eyes held a hint of pity as he spoke hesitantly. "Your mother took that item away."He gently touched Deirdre's face. "That man kidnapped your mother years ago. I don't know what happened during that time. Maybe he hurt your mother and wanted to keep her forcibly. Eventually, your mother found a chance to escape back to your father with the man's item."She left suddenly while pregnant with you, not out of hatred for your father, but to protect you. Now, that person is unsure if your mother or Arthur has the item. Thus, he aimed to kidnap both you and your father, taking his time to retrieve them."Deirdre's mind was overwhelmed, flooded with information that threatened to drown her. This unexpected revelation left her in disbelief.'My mother left my father because of me? And the mastermind behind Ryker is responsible for my mother's kidnapping?'"So that item holds significant importance for this person, enough to bring him down, right?" Deirdre forced herself to calm
