Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 922

Chapter 922 Get the Coffee Tested

Hence, Deirdre was not surprised that Charlene would spike Brendan’s drink, but she was surprised by Brendan’s determination.

Frankly, she did not trust Brendan very much. After all, Deirdre had become extremely passive because of the things Brendan did in the past. Yet, Brendan would actually choose to forcefully brace the medicine effect and lose consciousness so he would not hurt her.

Mrs. Engel’s gaze landed on Brendan’s flawlessly handsome face. His eyebrows were still tightly furrowed in his unconscious state. One could imagine how unpleasant the experience was for him earlier.

“Mrs. Brighthall.” Mrs. Engel could not refrain from saying, “Mr. Brighthall loves you very much, really.”

Brendan woke up feeling sore all over his body. Half of his body was numb from being squeezed into a small sofa in view of his tall and muscular physique.

He was preparing to get up when he felt the weight pinning down his waist. He lowered his head and found Deirdre lying on him. She had a blanket covering her body, and she was sound asleep.

It was such a wonderful scene that he could not bear to disturb her, but he figured that Deirdre would not feel comfortable in such a position. Thus, he scooped up the woman carefully and placed her on the sofa where he was earlier. He looked at the woman’s calm, sleeping face, and his dark eyes were filled with intense affection.

Still, Brendan’s gaze turned cold bit by bit when he remembered yesterday’s incident.

He left the room and found Charlene sitting absentmindedly on the sofa with a frown.

Brendan walked downstairs, and his heavy footsteps awakened Charlene.
