Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 593

Chapter 593 Did You Really Deal With the Incident Properly?

Deirdre did not drink, indeed. She would only put on an act by holding a glass without taking a sip.

She was afraid that she would get drunk, make a fool of herself, and do something strange in Brendan's presence. She was even more afraid that the man would behave indecently toward her and that she would not be able to resist him.

Yet now, there was no telling if she was trying to help out Declan or if she wanted to get a drink. She smiled and said, "It's fine. I'll be fine with just a few sips.”

Cillian narrowed his eyes subconsciously upon hearing that.

His gaze dimmed bit by bit as he watched them clink glasses until only a veiled glint glistened in his eyes.

They did not manage to chat much before Brendan came back. His flawlessly handsome face was filled with coldness.

Brendan had his hands in his pockets, and he took a glance at Declan before looking away coldly. "We should leave, Deirdre.”

"Sure." Deirdre placed down the glass. "Mr. King, Declan, it's getting late. We're going to make a move. Let's keep in touch.”

Cillian nodded and called over Laura to send them off.

They got into the car, and Deidre could feel the intense coldness radiating from Brendan's body in the cramped car. She could not see his displeasure, but she could clearly sense it.

She assumed that Brendan was displeased by Ronan’s incident. She propped her elbow against the window and said, "Don't worry. Cillian kept a tight lid on this incident, and very few people at the scene know about it. Your image won't be affected because of this.”

Upon saying that, Brendan's expression grew even more unpleasant. He stared at Deirdre closely out of the corner of his eye.

"Do you think that what I care about in this situation is my image?"

‘Or else?”

Deirdre expressed her puzzlement, yet she could not bring herself to speak her mind now that Brendan had asked her in this manner. She said speculatively, "Could it be that you feel that Cillian was being disrespectful to you? Or... are you and Mr. Lane in a conflict?"
