Resent Reject Regret by Aqua Summers novel Chapter 699

Chapter 699 Is She So Important?

"However, will you still find out what you want if I die?” Charlene burst out laughing profusely. Noticing that Brendan was frowning and quiet, she leaned closer to him coquettishly.

"I love you so much that I won't go back on my word. I've always kept my promises to you. Deirdre doesn't know about my existence, and she won't find out who you are."

Brendan found her remark ridiculous and avoided her approaching hand. His gaze was filled with disgust, hatred, and coldness that he did not bother to conceal.

"How about that woman today? Don't you dare tell me that she is not a part of your trick.”

Charlene admitted to it by saying, "I sent that person indeed."

"So, how dare you claim that you didn't go back on your word?"

"Is that woman related to my promise?” Charlene said boldly and smiled charmingly. However, her gaze was tainted with hatred.

"I promised you that I won't let Deirdre find out the truth, but I haven't promised you that I won't do everything in my power to discourage Deirdre. These are two separate matters.”

Brendan's gaze was cold. He found it meaningless to debate Charlene’s distorted, irrational opinion and wanted to get away from her as soon as possible.

"What do you want in order to provide the information to me then?"

"Owe it to her..." Charlene clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh, but she could not feel any pain. "How about what you owe me then? Brendan, if I hadn't risked my life to save you from the fire back then, you would have already vanished from this world! I'm your savior, yet this is how you treat me!"

Brendan's gaze was icy cold. It would be fine if she did not bring up this issue, but now that she mentioned it, Brendan felt nothing but guilt and hatred. "I've already treated you with utmost patience and magnanimity.

"If you didn't scheme to ensure that Deirdre was tormented in prison, resulting in the death of her child and causing her blindness and disfigurement, I wouldn’t have kept her by my side out of guilt when I met her again. If you hadn’t abducted her, I wouldn't have seen your true colors. Initially, I was planning on marrying you, but everything... Everything that happened, you brought it upon yourself! As for the favor from the fire..."

A look of confusion flashed past his dark eyes.

Was the cruel, malicious, disgusting woman before him really the pure, kind woman who would risk her life for him in the past?
