Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 246
Chapter 246 Offer
Deirdre was hesitant.
‘Would I have been unhappy? In the past, I wouldn’t have been happy indeed.
‘Not only would I have been unhappy, but my heart would have bled, and I would have felt suffocated.
‘But how could the all–superior Brendan share the same way of thinking as my past self?‘
“I’ll think about it.”
Deirdre lowered her gaze as she answered. Soon, she heard the pleasant sound of a piano ying
next to her. It was apparent that the piano was a high–quality one, and the tune it yed was
immersive. She could not help feeling tempted.
Maeve could see that and said in an exploratory tone, “Would you like to y it, Deirdre?”
“Me?” Deirdre was embarrassed. “I can’t. I have very limited skills because I only took lessons for a
short while. Besides, I can’t see anymore, so perhaps I have already lost
those skills.”
“How can you be certain that you can’t do it if you don’t try?”
Maeve called over the waiter and asked if they could y the piano.
The waiter did not reject her request, of course. “Sure.”
Maeve helped Deirdre sit before the piano.
The very moment Deirdre’s fingers touched the piano keys, she felt as if something was burning and
leaping inside her body. She pressed down on the fingers and began to y by memory.
Perhaps she was gifted in music, as the real Ophelia had once charged up a keyboard thrown away in
the slum and given it to Deirdre, who had proceeded to learn to y in just a few days.
Before Ophelia had gotten sick, she used to listen to Deirdre y the keyboard while she said
smilingly, “My dear Deirdre, you are truly amazing. Perhaps you might even be a piano master
someday. Just wait a bit longer. I’ll get an extra job so we can afford to hire a music tutor to teach you.”
She had kept her promise and hired a music tutor for real, but her health had been

sacrificed afterward. Deirdre had always feared that it was her ying the piano that had ruined
Ophelia’s health. She had refused to touch the piano since then.

Ophelia had encouraged her to muster the courage to y the piano once again. She was choking on
tears by the time she finished ying a song.
“Silly girl, why are you crying? You yed very well, and I’m so proud of you.” Maeve cupped Deirdre’s
face in her hands andplimented her.
Deirdre held back tears and smiled. “It’s nothing. I’m just happy and I feel lucky to have you back safely
with me.”
Maeve’s gaze turned gloomy for a while as she smoothened Deirdre’s hair.
Meanwhile, a man in a suit sitting at the corner approached them and passed Deirdre a business card.
“Hello. I’m very sorry for disturbing you. I’m the manager of a restaurant and I heard you y the piano
earlier. You yed impressively. Would you consider working for our restaurant as a pianist?”
“Me?” Deirdre was surprised.
“Yes.”
Deirdre pointed to her eyes and could not helpughing in spite of herself. “You must be unaware of
the fact that I am a blind person. I can’t see.”
The man appeared to be pleased. “That’s even better. You will set my mind at ease and focus on your
job since your eyes can’t see. You won’t be distracted by external factors. You yed the piano quite
impressively, I’m serious. You may give it some thought. I won’t treat you shabbily when ites to
your wages. If you decide to ept the offer, you may call me.”
He did not linger any longer. Deirdre’s interest was piqued as she held the business card.
She was a blind person who was despised by others, so this was the first time
someone had offered her a chance. It was not only an affirmation of her skills, but also an opportunity.
It would allow her to make a living and not depend on others to survive. She could work hard to provide
a good life for herself and Ophelia if Brendan got bored of providing for her in the future.
“You’re not really going to ept the offer, right?” Maeve could see Deirdre’s hesitation and expressed
her doubts. “You do not know if that person wants to sincerely hire you as a pianist, and Brendan
wouldn’t let you work anyway.”
