Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 236

Chapter 236 Thought She Left

Sam stood in the same spot while Deirdre walked ahead for two steps before she noticed that Sam was

not by her side.

“Sam?”

“I’m here.” Sam caught up to her in a few steps, and they walked together on the flat ground.

Deirdre said, “What happened? Why are you suddenly so quiet? I thought something bad had happened.”

Sam felt a tight knot in the pit of his stomach as he looked at Deirdre’s lively mannerisms, her smile, and her gentleness. He suddenly empathized with Brendan’s feelings.

If this lie can be sustained forever, will that be a good thing for Deirdre?”

“Nothing much. I saw a child running about on the road earlier, so I stopped to check the traffic.”

“Children are always mischievous.” Deirdre’s smile became frozen for a moment, but she quickly changed the conversation topic.

They were not far from the villa, so they chatted harmoniously while they walked and arrived at the courtyard soon.

However, Sam saw a tall and huge figure from afar, even before they reached the door.

Brendan had slippers on. Even though he had a trench coat draped over him, he was only wearing a thin shirt inside. He stood at the entrance door in the howling wind with a stern expression.

From the moment he saw Deirdre, he went from looking nervous to relieved. He took a few steps forward and hugged Deirdre tightly in his arms.

“Why did you head out so suddenly?” he asked her coldly while his dark eyes stared at Sam. He warned her with a rigid voice, “You didn’t even inform anyone. Could it be that you have no idea that your mother would be worried?”

“Mother?” Deirdre was jolted back to reality. She raised her head and said, “Is she awake? I’m sorry. I woke up early on purpose, so I could get something and be back before she woke up. I didn’t expect that I would be held up for so long that all of you are awake.”
