Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789 I Love You

Deirdre’s eyelashes trembled. Even though she did not say anything, Brendan still placed the straw near her lips.

“It’s warm water. Hurry up and take a sip.”

Deirdre turned her head to the side. “How is Tobey? Where is he now?”

Brendan’s face sank. The doctor had said that Deirdre could not get too agitated again, so he replied, “He’s fine. Don’t worry about him.”

“I don’t believe you,” replied Deirdre. “I want to call him.”

“Deirdre!” snarled Brendan. He suppressed his anger and continued with a frown. “Do you realize where you are right now? In a hospital. Don’t you think you should ask about your own condition first?”

Deirdre let out a mocking smile. “Brendan, who do you think is the one that caused me to be hospitalized?”

Brendan was stumped.

Deirdre grasped tightly at the quilt and continued. “I can’t believe that you’d do something like that to a pregnant woman.”

“I didn’t want to do that to you either. I just… I just wanted to check your body.”

Deirdre was stunned. A lump came into her throat. She wanted to get angry at Brendan but found herself too exhausted to do so.

“So? Did you find anything?”

Brendan did not reply. He regretted it the moment he did it. Deirdre was clean. Nothing had happened between her and Tobey. He just had gotten carried away by his emotions when

Deirdre tried to protect Tobey.

Deirdre lowered her head and smirked scornfully. “Is it true that if I was dirty, you’d throw me out and leave me to die instead of bringing me to the hospital?”

“Deirdre…” Brendan took a deep breath. “Am I that kind of person to you?’

Deirdre turned her head sideways. The muscle on her neck was tautly pulled. Her clavicle was distinct, and it was only then Brendan realized how thin she had become.
