Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 690

Chapter 690 Deirdre Is His Bottom Line

The smile on Charlene’s face melted away, but she still kept her composure. “It’s all thanks to you, Miss McKinnon. If you hadn’t kept Brendan company when I was away, he wouldn’t have missed me so much and wouldn’t have thought of taking me out of jail.

It seems that you can never shake off the fact that you’re my substitute, Miss McKinnon.”

When Brendan heard what Charlene said, he frowned slightly and glared at her threateningly. However, Charlene ignored him. She knew his secret, so she was not afraid of him now.

After that, she turned around and asked Brendan in a sweet voice, “Am I right, Brendan?”

Her face was filled with a smile as she waited for Brendan’s answer.

Brendan closed his eyes. After a few seconds, he opened them again and said, “Yes.”

Deirdre’s heart skipped a beat as a chill crept down her spine upon hearing Brendan’s answer. She had gone through so much disappointment that she became numb to it.

She said calmly, “I’m totally speechless, Miss McKinney. You really are the most naive woman I’ve ever met.

‘The fact that Brendan can get you out of jail just because he misses you means that he can leave you without any hesitation when he doesn’t love you anymore. If I were you, I wouldn’t wipe up that smug smile on my face and show it off in front of his ex-wife. I would be doing all I could to keep him by my side. After all, no matter how happy you are, everything you have right now won’t last long. You can’t even tell if Brendan really loves you or not.”

Deirdre’s words felt like blades that stuck into Charlene’s heart. Putting a fake smile on her face, she said, “Do I need to prove if Brendan loves me or not? Can you and Brendan love each other as much as we do right now?”

“No, we can’t,” Deirdre replied honestly. ‘That’s because I’m not someone who would use something that other people have used before.”
