Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 843

Chapter 843 Everything She Said Is Fake

Meanwhile, Madame Brighthall and Brendan returned from their conversation in private.

Charlene was not planning to stay longer since her goal had been achieved. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, “Since I came at the wrong time, I shall make a move first. I’ll come and visit you again another day, Madame Brighthall.”

Madame Brighthall nodded uneasily. Charlene walked away for two steps before she turned around and stared at Brendan with gentle eyes. “I’ll wait for you, Brendan.”

Brendan stared at Charlene without any expression on his face. Charlene smiled and left. The house’s atmosphere turned awkward all at once.

It was Madame Brighthall who broke the silence first. “How do you find the soup, Deirdre? It has been a few years since I cooked personally, so I don’t know if my cooking skill has deteriorated.”

Deirdre restrained the emotions in her eyes.

‘The soup you cook tastes scrumptious. I enjoy it very much, Madame Brighthall.”

She felt alienated by Deirdre’s address of ‘Madame Brighthall’ so she could not refrain from holding Deirdre’s hands. “If you don’t mind, you may address me as ‘Aunt Brighthall’. After you’ve given birth to the child, you can have your wedding with Brendan, and then you may call me something else.”

Deirdre forced a smile and nodded in agreement, but she did not attempt to flatter

Madame Brighthall.

Brendan walked over and wrapped his arms around the woman when Madame

Brighthall headed to the kitchen. “What did Charlene say to you?”

Before Deirdre could answer, Brendan said, “Don’t believe anything she said. It’s all fake.”

Deirdre smiled, pulled back her hands without changing her expression, and said,

“How can you be so sure that what she said is all fake when you don’t even know what we talked about?”

She was caught in a daze, so Brendan assumed she was still thinking about the top search article. He explained, “Don’t be angry. My act of not dismissing the article is not because of her.”

Deirdre recovered from her surprise and cast him a look.

“If you didn’t do it for her, why didn’t you get rid of her today?” Deirdre smiled Nonchalantly.

She did not mind, but it did not mean she was a fool.

If Brendan was telling the truth about him not having feelings for Charlene, why would he turn a deaf ear to her provocative remarks in the family mansion earlier?

Brendan figured out from her expression it was something else. He pulled Deirdre into his arms and over his thighs, studied the woman’s slightly astonished expression, and his gaze was tainted with a tinge of affection.” Are you jealous?”

Deirdre was expressionless when she said, “Is that possible?”

Brendan’s dark eyes turned solemn. Deirdre shoved him away and said calmly, “Brendan Brighthall, you should understand very well the reason we’re together. It is you who forced it on me, and you are the one that wants the child. On the other hand, it is already magnanimous of me to give my consent. I don’t know if you really have feelings for me or if you just find me intriguing, but I don’t care.”
