Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 749

Chapter 749 You Love Being the Third Wheel, Don’t You?

‘That’s more like it,” Deirdre said quickly, relieved. He believed her now, did he not?

Dread refused to leave her alone. She had thought that with everyone leaving the compound, Tobey could come right at her door and still be relatively safe. She was wrong-Brendan had somehow made her neighbor his mole, too. The only small solace was that the neighbor did not recognize Tobey.

Deirdre bit her lips tightly. She should insist on bringing Tobey inside the next time.

“Dee.”

She snapped out of her thoughts. “Oh? What’s the matter?”

“I want to go home. To see you.”

Deirdre was stunned. She chuckled. “Alright, it’s a little too late for jokes now, Kyran.

There’s no flight coming home right now, and you’re not driving in this state. What you should do is rest. Go to sleep.”

“I could always ask someone to drive me home.”

“Nope, that’s still dangerous to my liking. I won’t be able to sleep knowing that!” she said, doing her best to assure him.

Brendan finally relented. “Okay. But only if you tell me you love me,” he said softly… almost wistfully. “I haven’t heard you say that for a while now.”

Deirdre took a deep breath. “Kyran, I… I love you.” Silence.

“Kyran? Kyran!”

She thought he had left his phone until Charlene’s voice rang, “Oh, soooo sorry, Miss McKinnon. Bren’s fallen asleep, so I guess he’s never gonna answer your declaration of love now.”

Deirdre’s face paled. Emotions overcame her like a deluge-she felt both a chill and a fever coursing through her bloodstream. It was like being in two different kinds of hell simultaneously.

‘Or is being his sex partner what makes you happy?’

‘All you have to do is acknowledge that I’m his actual true love while you’re just a side wh*re, and we’ll get along just fine?’

Those words stung. Deirdre shut her eyes tightly, but she could not even summon the strength for a rebuttal. All of this humiliation was Brendan’s fault. He had forced her into this.

She would remember all the sins he had committed against her with all her might.

Ultimately, she lost her sleep for the rest of the night. It was hardly a good thing for a pregnant woman. In the morning, she had a head-splitting migraine.

She gave a low sigh and decided to get up to pack up. A suitcase would be too big and heavy for her, so she chose to pack light with a bag. She stuffed some clothes inside, mulled over her decision for a while, and took the medicines her doctor gave her as well.

Deirdre then made breakfast and ate while waiting for Tobey’s news. Her phone rang, and her joy skyrocketed.
