Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 866

Chapter 866 How Am I Supposed to Believe You

Deirdre was astounded upon hearing that.

“What do you mean?” Soon, Deirdre calmed down and stared at Brendan’s outline with a disappointed gaze. ‘What sort of trick are you up to again, Brendan?”

Brendan was frustrated.

He had done way too many things that made it very difficult for Deirdre to trust him.

“I’m not. I know that you may find it hard to understand the situation, but I’m telling you the truth that Ophelia is still alive.”

Deirdre’s fingers twitched. “Brendan, what is the point of you making up this lie? My mother’s death is an established truth…. that both you and the police are well aware of. You would have told me from the start if she were still alive. How can you possibly be hiding it from me until now!?”

She was utterly disappointed. “How foolish do you think I am that I will believe in your lowly lie?”

Brendan heaved a sigh softly and clenched his fists so tightly from the discomfort of his body until his veins bulged up. However, he still wanted to look normal to Deirdre.

“Ophelia’s death was verified by me and the police back in those years indeed, but her corpse’s face was a mess from the fall. There was utterly no way to tell if it was her. Most importantly… it’s possible that she is being manipulated by someone now.”

Deirdre’s expression was one of confusion and overwhelming emotions.” What the h*ck… are you trying to say here?”

Brendan looked at the woman’s face with unprecedented gentleness.

“Deirdre, do you still remember what I told you before? I told you that I love you.”
