Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 Mr. Brighthall Is Not in A Good Mood

“I can go if you’re busy, but can I get your number, Ms. McKinnon? If you have anything else that you need help with in the future… I could…”

Brendan clenched his fists tightly abruptly, his veins bulging out of his arms. ‘This man still won’t give up hope?’

Furious, he clenched his teeth without uttering a word but glared at Deirdre coldly.

Deirdre took a deep breath after sensing the immense pressure radiating from Brendan. She caught her breath before she answered with a forced smile, “I’m sorry. I don’t intend to do that, so I won’t hold you back.”

Trevor was obviously dejected but he did not seem to mind very much. “I’m older, so it’s very normal that you’re not interested, Ms. McKinnon. I shall go then.”

He walked away swiftly, which was an apparent sign that his ego had been hurt.

Deirdre appeared to be overwhelmed with emotions. She would not have spoken so straightforwardly had Brendan not been on the scene.

“What? Are you still unable to tear yourself away from him?” Brendan was instantly infuriated by the sight of her sorrowful expression. “Deirdre, it’s true that you’re blind, but you should know your own limits! How can you find a grotesque man like him attractive? Are you so desperate?”

Deirdre’s face turned pale. “Brendan, will you please not attack another person’s appearance?”

“I’m attacking his appearance?” Brendan laughed from anger. He clutched Deirdre’s shoulder and said, “You’re already defending him even though you’ve only been. acquainted with him for a short time? I can see that you’re not here to work. You’re

here to seduce men!”

Deirdre, who was incredulous, bit her lower lip tightly all of a sudden. She was struck. by Brendan’s viciousness once again.

She was supposed to be used to it but she could not help tearing up. Someone noticed the situation and approached them to inquire about the situation with a flattering smile.

“It’s not because of her that I’m…” Deirdre forced a smile with great effort. “Forget it, it’s time for work. I’ll get to it now.”

After a day’s work, Sam waited for Deirdre at the door and escorted her to the

backseat.

Upon taking a seat, Deirdre could not help asking, “Did you see Brendan before you

came?”

“Yes,” Sam answered. He felt a shiver down his spine at the thought of Brendan’s cold expression. “Be careful when you get home tonight, Ms. McKinnon. Mr. Brighthall is not in a good mood. He broke some items in the study yet he still did not vent his anger, so he went out to drink. It would be best if you avoided him as much as you could when you’re home.”

Deirdre felt her palms turn sweaty. She was convinced that she would not be able to avoid Brendan because she was the reason for his anger.
