Resent, Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 17
Chapter 17 He’s Dead, Just as You Wished
“Don’t move! Do you want the entire back of your hand to swell up?” Brendan furrowed his eyebrows,
took a step forward, and clutched her wrist.
Deirdre wanted to struggle free, but Brendan immediately said, “Don’t me me for doing something to
you if you insist on moving!”
She was confused, as she had already lost everything she had.
‘What else does he want from me when I already lost my face, the one that looked simr to
Charlene’s?’
Brendan clenched his fists tightly and said in a cold, mocking tone, “Deirdre, you should check your
reflection in the mirror. Did you really think that I’d still want to bother you? I’m only doing this to find my
child. I would like to meet him and introduce him to my family. I promise that I won’ty eyes on you
even once from now on if you hand him over to me!”
“Find your child?” Deirdre felt her entire body shivering.
She remembered the countless days and nights that she had heard the child crying despite knowing
that he had already turned into mush. He had died in prison, just like the past Deirdre!
‘On the other hand, the culprit, the cause of everything, is shamelessly boasting about finding his child
to introduce him to his family?
‘What a… joke!
Deirdre burst intoughter frantically until her eyes teared up. Brendan furrowed his eyebrows tightly
and pinched her chin. “Why are youughing? Is it funny to you that I want to take back my child?”
Tears streamed down Deirdre’s face. She felt grateful that her eyes were blind, as she would have
been deeply disgusted had she been able to see his pretentious face.
“Brendan , you can just be frank if you want to torment me. There’s no need to y tricks on me. Could
you still have no idea where the child is?”
Brendan was stunned for a moment upon hearing Deirdre’s question. He remembered Sterling’s
remark
earlier and felt his heart skip a beat. He said through clenched teeth, “What do you mean?”

“What do I mean?” Deirdre clutched the nket and roared softly while she sobbed. “He’s dead! He’s
dead, just as you wished! I didn’t even manage to see what he looked like before he was gone! Are you
pleased to know that, Brendan?”
Brendan was stunned so hard that he felt as if someone had thrown a wet nket on him. He now
understood the situation but he forced himself to sneer. “Dead? Deirdre, do you really think that I’ll fall
for your lowly lies? How can he possibly be dead! I will find him by myself even if you won’t tell me
where he is!”
After mming the door on her, Brendan left faster than someone running for his life. He breathed
heavily while he looked up Deirdre’s information.
He attempted to trace back any information rted to his child, yet there was none. The child had not
shown up since Deirdre and Sterling had opened up the clinic in the
slums close to a year ago.
He called up Steven and questioned him about Deirdre’s
condition after she was released from prison. Steven paused for a moment before he said, “Sir, I’m
certain that Ms. McKinnon’s child was safe and sound when she left prison.”
Steven kept quiet for a moment before he said boldly,“ Sir, have you considered that the child might
have been aborted by Ms. McKinnon afterward?”
“Nonsense!” Brendan’s veins bulged behind his temples. “She would rather bow to me for the child.
How could she possibly have terminated the pregnancy!”
“But Ms. McKinnon had already met Sterling at the time. The child was a burden to their rtionship
because no man would ept a child that is not his. Perhaps Ms. McKinnon was not counting on
spending her life with you, so she…”
Brendan smashed his phone out of rage. “What? She killed my child to continue her rtionship with
Sterling? ‘If that is the case, I will never let you off, Deirdre!’
