Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 906

Chapter 906 She Won’t Push Me Away If She Really Loves Me

Storm clouds pooled around Brendan’s visage almost instantly. He locked his eyes dead on Deirdre’s face, snarling, “How long are you going to act like a brat, McKinnon!?”

The commotion summoned Mrs. Engel out of the kitchen. Seeing ceramic pieces bathing in a pool of pumpkin soup on the floor, the good woman immediately tried to de-escalate the situation.

“Mr. Brighthall, please hear me out! Mrs. Brighthall had never liked pumpkin soups! I can vouch for that! This is why I made something else for her instead. She’s not trying to make things hard for you, I promise!

Deirdre’s face was ashen and unyielding. ‘You don’t have to explain anything to that thick skull, Mrs. Engel. I’m always wrong to him anyway!” She sulked.

Brendan scowled. His patience was running out. ‘You’re the one who’s been acting out like a petulant tw*t since you were released from the detainment center!” he thundered. “If anything in this house offends your oh -so-high horses, talk it out like a grown-up! Nobody will lick your boo-boo just because you know how to throw a fit!” “M-Mr. Brighthall!” Mrs. Engel faltered, appalled. That was so sarcastic even Mrs. Engel could not bear to hear it… let alone Deirdre.

Just as she had expected, a resentful glare overtook Deirdre’s face.

Charlene’s glee was palpable from the twinkles in her eyes. The time was ripe for her to step in. “Bren’s right, you know,” she said, her voice dripping with faux concern. “If something’s bothering you, let it out like an adult instead of throwing a tantrum, okay? Bren’s exhausted from work already. There’s no reason he has to come home just to suffer another round of punishment.” “I don’t think you have as much right to comment as you think you do. Why do you think Brendan’s exhausted at work? That catastrophe couldn’t be made possible without your amazing contribution, Miss McKinney!”
