Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235 Still Alive and Doing Great

Before Deirdre shut her eyes, she wrapped her arms around Maeve’s arm and said, “I feel lucky that you’re still alive, mother. Don’t be saddened by dad’s death. I’ll protect you from now on, and I will live well for you.”

She fell asleep drowsily while Maeve’s eyes widened. She was so deeply moved by Deirdre’s remark that she didn’t know what to say. What would the real Ophelia say at this very moment? She could not figure.

out an answer.

The phone in her pocket vibrated. She waited until Deirdre was in a deep sleep before she moved away Deirdre’s arms cautiously and got out of bed.

She walked out of the room to find Brendan smoking at the door. There were already a few cigarette butts scattered on the ground. His dark eyes were narrowed as he looked up to the first floor and said without even turning to Maeve, “Is Deirdre suspicious?”

Maeve shook her head. “It is apparent that she isn’t. Ms. McKinnon is very pure and will go straight to the point and express something that is bothering her, even if she does detect anything unusual, so I can explain myself to her. I believe that she is already fully convinced that I’m Ophelia by now.”

“Hmm.” Brendan looked at her sharply. “However, you shouldn’t let down your guard just because of that. Deirdre is a very sensitive person.”

“Alright.”

“Also, you should go out with her tomorrow. I can set my mind at ease knowing that you’re right by her side. You can go grocery shopping with her.”

The next day…

Deirdre woke up earlier than anybody else.

Sam was already guarding the door since early morning. He was stunned by the sight of Deirdre coming downstairs in thick clothing, the lively look on her face, and her energetic mannerism.

“Good morning, Ms. McKinnon.”

“Good morning, Sam.” Deirdre greeted Sam and said, “You came at the right time. Will you help me to get some flannel fabric and sewing tools from the market since it’s still early?”

“What do you need those for, Ms. McKinnon?”
