Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577 Why Did She Marry Gillian?

"Oh, thank you." Laura felt flattered. Her presence at the banquet was so minimal that it was neglectable. As such, it was rare for someone to care about her preferences.

She said with a smile, “Miss McKinnon, with you being so beautiful, your sense should be good too. I'm very honored."

Deirdre returned Laura's compliment with a smile.

What followed was business networking. Deirdre minimized her presence by just standing aside, smiling, and nodding.

Cillian seemed to have a strong intention to cooperate with Brendan. He mentioned his intention many times, but Brendan indirectly rejected them. Following that, Cillian talked about Declan.

"My younger brother is too ignorant. He's as naive as a child. He actually broke his relationship with you just because he didn't agree with you about one thing and kept talking about you behind your back."

As soon as Cillian said that, Brendan showed a trace of disgust and impatience on his face. “We are not suitable to be friends, but I don’t bother to argue with him. It would be better without the need to have any contact with him."

"Yes." While Cillian observed Brendan's reaction, his smile grew broader.” But Mr. Brighthall, please don't think that Declan and I are the same kind of people. I still sincerely appreciate your personality and character."

Brendan took a sip of his wine. "Mr. King, of course, I am aware of your character and outstanding abilities. Otherwise, how could you manage the Kings so well?”

Cillian acted humbly. "No, Mr. Brighthall. In terms of abilities, I'm not even half as good as you are."

It was at this moment that Laura came over to remind Cillian of the arrival of other guests.

Cillian hurriedly said, “Mr. Brighthall and Miss McKinnon, please make yourself at home. I'll have to greet other guests now. Let's talk more later when I'm free.”

"Sure, thank you."
