Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 298

Chapter 298 He Just Can’t Let Her Go

“Goddamn it!” It was the first time Madame Brighthall had ever been so apoplectic. She shot daggers at Brendan and snarled, “Haven’t you reached rock bottom yet?!”

Brendan took a deep breath. “Yes! Which is why I need Deirdre. I need to atone!”

“And what if she doesn’t want your stupid atonement?” Madame Brighthall retorted.

Brendan felt a pang in his chest and clenched his fists. “I’ll make her accept it.”

Madame Brighthall turned to face a statue of Mother Mary. “No, I don’t think it’ll work at all. Do you really think she’d be eager to leave because of me? No. It’s because she hates you to her very core. She wanted to escape you and never see you again in her entire life. If you’re really seeking atonement, then put everything about her behind you and settle down with Lena already. Treat her as though she’s already

dead!”

“Never!” Brendan snapped unthinkingly. Without flinching, he demanded again, “Where did you hide Deirdre?!”

Madame Brighthall ignored him.

A coughing fit seized Brendan, but he marched over to the stairs to get to the first floor. Just two steps in, he lost his footing and fell.

“Bren!” Charlene’s eyes reddened, and she tried to help him.

He slapped her hand away coldly.

He was clearly still seething from their previous conflict. Charlene bit her lip and cursed the fact that that. b*tch was still alive-and that Brendan had somehow found out about it too.

The young man’s sickness had tortured his features into a terrible grimace, but he still stormed up the stairs and began searching every room. Madame Brighthall was so appalled that she cried, “You’ve gone. insane! Lena is right here, right next to me! The two of you are going to be engaged on the 28th! The two of you are going to get married! But you… You are throwing a hysterical tantrum over another woman right in front of your bride-to-be! How could you do this to your future wife?!”
