Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206 Would He Lose Her?

Back to the old days…

Deirdre felt a sharp heartache, and tears welled up in her eyes. “We could never go back to the old days.”

Although she said it with determination, she was absolutely touched.

She would meet her mother again in nine days. And it might be good for her if they treated each other with respect, just like in the old days.

It was pointless to torture each other. She thought it would be enough provided she could be emotionally detached from Brendan perpetually.

Finally, she gave in.

“Brendan, I don’t have anything to pursue in this life. The only thing I care about is my mother. As long as she is safe and sound and you keep your promise, I can, uh, try to go back to the old days.”

She mustered up all her courage to say this, but the enthusiasm in Brendan’s eyes had gradually dissipated.

As long as Ophelia was safe and sound?

It was too late. Ophelia had already…

Brendan suddenly felt inexplicable terror about the meeting between that woman and Deirdre in nine days.

He didn’t know what he would do if Deirdre discovered the truth and realized this was a lie.

Would he lose Deirdre?

Would he lose this lively, agile side of Deirdre?

“Brendan…”

Perhaps Brendan had unconsciously strengthened his grip, as Deirdre was in pain.

Brendan released her when he realized it. “Okay.”

He pursed his lips into a straight line and said, “Sure, let’s just try to go back to the old days.”

After he said this, he saw another side of himself in the mirror. He looked serious and uneasy.

He even thought that these nine days were probably his only chance.
