Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65 Existing in Name Only

Charlene braced herself and spoke up under Brendan’s watchful eyes. “It’s apparent that your mother is still abroad, so how can you meet her so soon, huh?”

“Is that so…” Deirdre was relieved abruptly and only discovered that her fingers were trembling after her mind relaxed.

She had felt terror taking over her, and she was glad that her speculation was not

true.

“I don’t care. I just want to see her! Don’t worry, I’m not going to hold on to the status. of Mrs. Brighthall forever.” Deirdre sneered at herself upon finishing her sentence. She could no longer be bothered to hold the position that had resulted in such loss. and destruction.

“All I want is to see my mother. I will head to the court for the divorce proceedings by myself without any reminders from you after meeting her.”

Brendan’s dark eyes were filled with agitation. “We shall discuss that later. I’ll see you to the door, Charlene.”

He walked out of the room swiftly with Charlene following him, her chest tight with

anxiety.

She could tell that Brendan was extremely displeased.

“Bren…”

“Explain yourself.” Brendan stopped walking and turned around with half his face in

the shadows. He exuded intense overbearingness.

He did not wish to see Deirdre suffering a mental breakdown.

“Just don’t mention Ophelia to Deirdre from now on.” Brendan took a deep breath and suppressed his displeasure. “It’s getting late. You should head back.”

“Brendan… About the divorce…”

“Deirdre’s attitude regarding this matter is very obvious. She will never agree to the divorce without seeing Ophelia, and you know that very well. We’ll need to wait.”

“But…” Charlene was recalcitrant, as she had been waiting for way too long. “Ophelia is already dead, so how are you going to let her meet her? Am I supposed to hold no status for the rest of my life if she won’t agree to a divorce?”

“No, I will not allow myself to be bound to Deirdre for eternity,” Brendan answered concisely, his eyebrows furrowed. “However, I told you that we’ll need time.”

“Alright then…” Sensing that Brendan was in a bad mood, Charlene knew that she could not oppose him anymore, so she said flirtatiously, “I want to be your wife so badly Since you told me that you need time, I will wait for you. Brendan, I trust you to handle everything properly.”
