Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 897

Chapter 897 Trust That I Love You

Charlene was no fool because she knew how the rest of her life would be if Brendan was ruined.

Those people wanted to tarnish Brendan’s reputation until his future was almost bleak. How could she marry Brendan if that were the case? Could she make peace with being a deadbeat’s wife?

No, Charlene knew that she would have to rise up higher! She wanted to show everyone that she married an influential man with high authority and wanted everyone to submit to her.

“So, you’re saying that you forced Charlene to work with you by putting on an act by using the voice recording as a threat?” Deirdre paused for a moment upon saying that. Then, she said softly, “So, I didn’t get injured in vain. Charlene is so foolish she let someone have a hold upon her in this situation.” “She isn’t foolish. On the contrary, she is too smart. She is so smart that she is always leaving leeway for herself at all times.”

Deirdre turned her head to the side even though she could not see the man’s face clearly.

Soon afterward, she came to understand the situation and said, “You’re saying that she did that on purpose?” “Smart girl.” In fact, Brendan wanted to kiss Deirdre but refrained from doing so because he was driving. “Do you think Charlene wants to marry me just because she loves me? Perhaps, she does a little, yet she won’t choose me without my identity.

“She is well aware that my reputation will worsen over time if the situation progresses further such that it will not be beneficial for her. As such, she chose to rush to our side. She is an egoist who will never put her route of retreat at too much risk.”

Deirdre found Charlene’s scheme to be surprising and was astonished by Brendan’s foresight. He had already laid out a plan from the start, which was why he could stay calm and composed without caring about the situation’s progress.

At that moment, Deirdre discovered she would constantly fall into Brendan’s trap because he was truly intelligent… She would never willingly allow herself to walk into Charlene’s trap if not because of Ophelia.

“Do you trust me now?” “What?” Deirdre recovered from her surprise, and in the next moment, her left hand was grabbed. A hand that was cold as usual yet slightly warm in the palm wrapped around her hand.
