Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803 You’re Always in His Heart

“He’s alright. His wounds just tore a little.”

Deirdre felt a pang of guilt. “Sorry, that was me. I didn’t know he was hurt when I pushed him.” “It’s okay. It’s got nothing to do with you at all. Even if you didn’t push him, his wounds would have been torn open anyway. He had been driving all the way here from Central Hospital.”

Deirdre froze. That was half an hour’s journey! Had he gone mad? She pushed away the complicated feelings as they arose and asked,” What’s with his injuries? I thought he’s been spending his time with Charlene. Did something happen halfway through? An ambush?”

“Spending time with Charlene?” Sam was taken aback.

“Who told you that? He wasn’t spending time with Charlene.” “No?” Deirdre’s mind turned blank. Brendan had lied to her about the business trip, but Charlene was not the ulterior motive, after all? Then where had he been?

No. It did not matter where he had been. He had lied to her. Nothing was going to change that.

“So, he was ambushed?”

Sam looked conflicted. “Yes.”

Deirdre exhaled a sigh. “Then you should call a doctor to redress his injuries. Meanwhile, I’ll be sleeping on the couch downstairs tonight.”

She turned on her heels, and Sam cried before he could stop himself, “Miss McKinnon, wait!”

Even he himself was surprised at his reaction, but he continued. “He… Mr. Brighthall needs you. Can you please stay by his side for tonight? You don’t have to do much. Just lie next to him when you sleep. Or else, he’ll wake up and look for you again.”

Deirdre cast her eyes down. “And why will he do that?” “Because he wants to see you?” Sam was a little helpless. “An hour ago, his life was hanging by a thread, and he had an emergency operation performed on him in the early hours. If it weren’t for you, why would rushing home be the first thing he did after waking up from his sedatives? You can’t seriously think it’s because he has trouble sleeping unless it’s his own bed.”
