Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 797

Chapter 797 Steven Is Dead

Mrs. Engel’s gaze dimmed when she remembered something and said, “Is it because of Ophe-”

“Mrs. Engel.” Deirdre stopped Mrs. Engel in time by saying, “It’s already in the past, so we don’t have to bring it up again. Men are always moving forward.”

‘Yes, you’re right!” Mrs. Engel hastily nodded. She almost triggered Deirdre’s sadness but could not refrain from advising Deirdre in view of her past experience.

“Mrs. Brighthall, perhaps I may not be right, but I know that Mr. Brighthall loves you now. He cares about you, and that is why he traveled far to look for me before finding me in a mountain valley. I broke a leg at the time, and he spent a lot of money to get me treatment. He told me that he didn’t want me to pay him back. Instead, he would like me to take care of you so that you’re happy.”

‘So that I’m happy?’

Deirdre’s gaze glistened with emotions. In the next moment, her gaze cooled down.

Did Brendan not feel that he was going against his conscience when he lied to Mrs. Engel?

If he really wanted her to be happy, he would not have destroyed her life once and then impregnated her with his baby.

Deirdre did not comment further. She changed the topic of conversation by saying,

“What are we having today?”

In the Brighthall Group, Brendan had just returned to the company when he was bombarded with documents. Now that he was back, all the major events in the company were blamed on him.

After the board of directors meeting ended, Mr. Jensen seated on the right called out to him, his expression displeased.

“Brendan, why am I hearing rumors out there that you were away from the company not to recuperate from your condition but for a woman?”

All the members of the board of directors looked to Brendan upon hearing his remark.
