Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156 How Did She Get the Injury on Her Hands

She was under the assumption that her well-coordinated lie would be flawless. Brendan’s expression turned cold, and his dark eyes were rippling with evilness as he stared closely at the speaking servant.

“So, you let her punish herself by standing outside just because she said so? You feel no sympathy at all. If she were to tell you that she wanted to commit suicide, would you give her a knife too?”

The servant’s face turned ghastly pale in an instant. She hastily defended herself by saying, “No… I wouldn’t… Mr. Brighthall, we’ve already advised Miss McKinnon against doing it, but Miss McKinnon insisted on…”

Blood drained from Charlene’s face similarly. She did not expect that Brendan would be so concerned about Deirdre that he would lecture her servants.

“Brendan, it’s my fault. I was too tired, so I went upstairs to rest after chatting with Miss McKinnon for a while, and that is why I didn’t notice that she punished herself by standing outside at once.” Charlene expressed her grievance, yet her face was already stiff from the piercing cold wind. She could only curl her lips as she said, “It’s too cold outside. Miss McKinnon’s body can’t withstand the cold. Why don’t we go inside and talk later?”

Deirdre refused to walk. She looked in Charlene’s direction and cracked a smile. “Will you still forgive me if I go inside?”

Charlene’s hands that were pulled back into her sleeves clenched tightly, but she forced a chuckle on the surface. “What are you talking about, Miss McKinnon? Haven’t I already forgiven you?”

“That’s right.” The servant chimed in. “How can you forget about that, Miss McKinnon? Miss McKinney has never blamed you from the start.”

‘Never blamed me from the start?’

Deirdre felt that there was nothing else more amusing in this world than this. Before she could laugh. about it, a dizzy spell hit her like a storm. Her body relaxed, her mind went blank, and she collapsed.
