Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 118


    Chapter 118 Uproot


    ‘Deirdre will not be able to outshine me when I move into the vi.’


    A tinge of cruelness shed past her beautiful eyes. Soon afterward, she nodded with a gentle


    expression. “I don’t have any request except for Ms. McKinnon not to hurt me anymore.”


    In the next three days, Brendan did not visit the vi anymore. Deirdre sat in the spacious living room


    by herself just as she did two years ago.


    The only change was her state of mind. She went from being a white jasmine waiting for the rising sun


    to a wilted rose emitting rot and stench inside out.


    “Ms. McKinnon.” Sam had been guarding the door all this time and had been watching as Deirdre sat


    on the sofa in a daze from sunrise to sunset. He felt rather sorry for her and could not refrain from


    striking up a conversation with her. “The flowers in the yard have bloomed and smell great. Would you


    like to head outside for a stroll? Perhaps you can get a whiff of the floral scent while you’re at it?”


    Deirdre remained in the same position for a long time before she suddenly moved. ” The flowers have


    bloomed?”


    “Hmm. There are many of them, and they look like a massive sea of flowers from afar. The scent is not


    too overpowering either.”


    “Really?” Deirdre lowered her head and chuckled.


    She nted those flowers.


    “Take me there, please.”


    Sam was stunned for a moment upon seeing the smile on the woman’s face. He only recovered from


    the surprise after a long while and felt his face burning slightly. He led Deirdre by supporting her arm.


    The floral scent in the yard was not overpowering and stirred up emotions in her. Deirdre touched the


    flowers and realized that the flowers were not that different from how she remembered them. She said,


    “Sam, please bring me a spade.”


    “Sure.” Even though Sam had no idea what was the purpose of the spade, it was Deirdre’s first time


    uttering a word in three days. He hastily grabbed a spade from the


    garage.


    “Here, Ms. McKinnon.” He passed the spade and asked, “You want the spade…”


    Before he could finish his sentence, he watched as Deirdre felt for a flower’s root and lifted the whole


    flower together with its soil.


    The flowers fell over and stunned Sam. He came to respond to the situation by saying, “What are you


    doing, Ms. McKinnon?”


    Deirdre wiped away the sweat on her face and thought about how weak she was. She did not utter a


    word, but she uprooted another flower. A small area of the beautiful flower bush fell over within a short


    period.


    I nted these in the past.” She caught her breath after she stopped before she said, “However, this


    ce doesn’t deserve them anymore. Sam, you can nt them in your house garden if you like. If you


    don’t, just bury them elsewhere so they won’t be trapped on this ground for the rest of their lives


    without anyone to appreciate their beauty, just like their master.”


    She was very calm. She was so calm that she saddened Sam.


    He took the spade and cracked a smile. “Why didn’t you tell me that earlier, Ms. McKinnon? I was


    under the assumption that you were bored from staying in the house and had too much energy to use.


    There are too many flower bushes here, and you can’t see them. You can leave this task to me. Don’t


    worry, I’ll dig them up until the soil is clean without leaving any stalks behind.”


    Deirdre was stunned. Soon afterward, she cracked a smile and said sincerely, “Thank you.”


    She packed up the flowers by tying them with agile movements so Sam could take them. Sam returned


    at night and ced a box on the coffee table.


    “What is that?”


    Before Sam could speak, the sound of a puppy’s whine could be hearding from


    the inside.


    Deirdre’s empty eyes glistened with a glint. Sam pulled out the puppy and sniggered in an


    embarrassed manner. “You gave me those flowers, so I thought I should also return your gift. This is


    the puppy born by my neighbor’s old dog. It has just opened its eyes, so I believe that you will enjoy


    holding it.”

    She liked it. She liked it, of course. However, the glint in her eyes turned into dread soon afterward.


    “Please send it back.”
