Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 432 In Such a Rush to Meet My Parents?
All Deirdre needed to do was to find out if Brendan was with Madame Brighthall. “Deirdre, Deirdre.”Deirdre raised her head when she was jolted back to reality.Kyran paused for a moment. “I called out to you many times.”“I’m sorry.” Deirdre seemed to be very vexed with her current behavior of not being responsible. “I was thinking about something…”“I can see that. You’ve been acting differently since earlier.” Kyran appeared to be slightly dejected. “Is it because of Tobey?”Deirdre was stunned for a moment. She came to understand Kyran and denied it by saying, “No. It’s not related to Tobey.”She knew what he cared about and said, “Kyran, my unusual mood is not related to Tobey’s presence.”“If that is the case, why won’t you tell me then?”Deirdre was rendered speechless while Kyran typed, “Forget it. I won’t force it on you anyway. Everyone deserves to have their secrets, and so should you. It’s only that I hope you can be fully focused and attentive on your date with m

Now that Deirdre found someone who understood her, she was supposed to be happy, yet the doubt in her heart was still present. Deirdre lowered her gaze. The door next to her suddenly opened up.Declan removed his jacket gracefully and said smilingly, “Both of you are truly extravagant that you’d get a reservation in a luxury restaurant.”Deirdre was surprised by Declan’s presence.Kyran explained, “He insists on coming.”“Yes, we’re best friends anyhow. You can’t abandon me to eat by myself elsewhere just because of Miss McKinnon, right? You still have the rest of your lives to date.” Declan pulled a chair and took a seat without showing any courtesy. He notified the waitress to set up the table for an additional person.Deirdre smiled. “It’s great that you’re here. I was just saying that we might not be able to finish all the food here.”Declan took a glance at the food served on the table and was stunned. “Is that Brussels sprouts? Who ordered this?”Deirdre stopped and clen

‘Not the same person. Kyran and Brendan are not the same person…’Deirdre shed tears of joy at the answer. She had no idea how she should face Kyran for the past few days, yet in the end, she learned that it was all a blunder. She suppressed her sobbing with all her might. “Are you sure, Tobey?”“Yes, I’m sure,” Tobey said in a gentle voice. “Hence, you don’t need to worry anymore. Go ahead and be in love.”“Thank you.” After ending the call, Deirdre wiped away the tears on her face and felt a great sense of relief. She turned around to walk back when she suddenly heard Charlene’s concerned voice coming from in front of her. “Why are you outside, Brendan? Are you tired? Would you like to go back to the hospital first? Even though the doctor advised you to walk more before your surgery, don’t force it if you don’t feel well enough.”Deirdre’s expression was rigid. Then, she heard Brendan’s cold voice, “I’m not tired. I just came out to get some fresh air.”“Remember to tell m

Brendan grabbed Charlene’s arm and said, “Did you see the woman standing at the door earlier?”“The woman?” Charlene appeared confused. “Brendan, your eyes must have played tricks on you, right? There was no woman standing at the door earlier. Are you too tired and exhausted? Why don’t we return to the hospital to get some rest?”Brendan was convinced. Let alone the figure looked quite different from what he remembered. It would be impossible for him to encounter Deirdre in a place like this. A look of disappointment flashed past his eyes.Charlene could see his reaction and felt jealous in her heart. She became even more convinced that she could not allow Brendan to find out about Deirdre’s whereabouts. “Brendan… It’s easy for one to be delusional when they are too tired. Let’s not be bothered about the past. You still have me. Didn’t you say that you’ve forgiven me? We will be with each other and live together peacefully. I will be with you for the rest of my life…”Deirdre s

“Who?”Deirdre’s gaze was still. “It’s already in the past. I only needed to confirm that you are not him, and that is enough for me.“Kyran, as long as you are not him and won’t become him, I will come with you to Eastgene, Germia, or anywhere else. Take me with you, alright?”The man’s breathing was slightly shaky. There was no telling if he was astonished or pleasantly surprised by her remark, but he hugged her tightly a moment later. “Alright, Deirdre. I’ll take you with me.”After shedding the final burden, Deirdre felt relieved like she had never felt before. They held hands tightly with their fingers interlaced with each other all the way until they returned to the private room.Declan was sitting in the private room by himself, and his lips twitched when he noticed the couple still refused to let go of each other’s hand after entering the room.“Have you made up with each other?”Deirdre could not help feeling surprised. “You noticed that, Mr. King?”Declan propped hi

Deirdre felt her ears humming and raised her head abruptly. ‘Die? Who’s dying?’Her eyes were filled with disbelief, and she got up from her seat shakily. It felt as if the air was made of needles as every breath she took pierced her lungs. She wanted to ask, yet the nurses had only chatted briefly before turning around and parting ways. Deirdre leaned against the ice-cold wall by herself and replayed the conversation between the nurses repeatedly in her head. ‘Brendan is dying?’Deirdre’s mind went blank, and she thought about Madame Brighthall’s sudden appearance and the desperation in her voice at the time.Deirdre felt her chest tightening and wondered if it was a misunderstanding. ‘Or, it might even be a joke. Brendan is still doing well. He was still talking in the restaurant earlier. How can he be…’All of a sudden, the door behind her opened. Kyran furrowed his eyebrows when he found Deirdre standing at the door, her face ghastly pale.Declan was right behind him a

“Deirdre! Don’t even think about living a peaceful life with another man! If I can destroy Sterling, I can destroy the next one too!”Deirdre awoke in shock. She was breathing heavily, and her body was drenched in sweat. She opened her eyes and found that there was only darkness. She could determine that it was still early according to the noise level. She inhaled a deep breath and wiped away the sweat on her head. However, the image of the man’s savage expression was deeply ingrained in her mind.Deirdre could not sleep, so she got out of bed to do her laundry. She opened the door and got out of the room. Her phone reported that it was five in the morning. Meanwhile, people were already bustling about but speaking softer in the corridor.Deirdre had just arrived at the laundry room entrance when she suddenly heard the rushed high heels clicking from the elevator, as well as Madame Brighthall’s panicked tone, “Coughing up blood? When did that happen? Why didn’t you notify us ear

How Madame Brighthall was pleased and devoted to Deirdre’s previous identity felt so cynical to Deirdre. Deirdre said, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else, Madame Brighthall. I’m Deirdre McKinnon and not Charlene McKinney.”“I know.” Madame Brighthall’s gaze dimmed for a moment when her hands were flung away.She then said hastily, “Brendan has already come clean to me. It was you who took care of me over the years, right? The daughter-in-law that I’m perfectly content with has always been you too. I’m sorry, Miss McKinnon. I… I was so reckless that I actually kicked you out and hurt you…”‘Come clean?’Deirdre felt her heart racing and felt a knot in the pit of her stomach. She said, “You shouldn’t apologize, Madame Brighthall. You didn’t do anything wrong from the start. On the contrary, I should thank you. I wouldn’t be able to leave Brendan had you not helped me. It’s a happy ending for the both of us now.”“Is it really a happy ending?” Madame Brighthall smiled bitterly. “

"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.

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
