Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 889

Chapter 889 Brendan was Hopeless

Brendan remained silent.

Deirdre smiled and replied, “Mr. Griffin, I didn’t know that you knew so much. Do you think power can override the law? It seems like you’ve done this kind of thing a lot before, using your power to settle certain matters?”

Feeling a pang, Desmond shouted, “Shut up!” “Who are you telling to shut up?” retorted Brendan as his smile faded.

Desmond was at a loss for words.

At that moment, Deirdre hooked her arm around Brendan’s and said, “Let it go, Bren. It’s understandable that Mr. Griffin is upset when his thoughts have been exposed.

Don’t forget that we’re only here to congratulate Mr. Griffin today. I believe he’s open minded enough not to care about the two of us talking, right?”

Deirdre’s words put Desmond in a position whereby he would be seen as a petty man if he were to be enraged.

Clenching his fists, Desmond recalled something and held back. “Do as you please! I don’t have time to cater to you!”

Desmond turned and walked away, followed by several board members.

The rest also scattered. It was as if Desmond had already established himself as the new CEO while Brendan was merely a failed shareholder.

Deirdre frowned and asked, “Isn’t the Brighthall Group part of the Brighthalls? Why is Desmond daring to provoke you like this?” ‘The Brighthalls indeed found the Brighthall Group, but my mother doesn’t have much real power in the group. Moreover, my father gave the shares my mother had given him to outsiders.” “Outsiders?”

Brendan’s gaze grew cold, and he didn’t intend to dwell further on the question. “Are you hungry?”

Deirdre knew he didn’t want to continue with the topic, so she nodded. “A little.” “I’ll take you to get something to eat.”

Brendan naturally took Deirdre’s hand and led her to another side.
