Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 438
Chapter 438 Why Are You Here?
“Deirdre! Don’t even think about living a peaceful life with another man! If I can destroy Sterling, I can
destroy the next one too!”
Deirdre awoke in shock. She was breathing heavily, and her body was drenched in sweat. She opened
her eyes and found that there was only darkness. She could determine that it was still early ording
to the noise level.
She inhaled a deep breath and wiped away the sweat on her head. However, the image of the man’s
savage expression was deeply ingrained in her mind.
Deirdre could not sleep, so she got out of bed to do herundry.
She opened the door and got out of the room. Her phone reported that it was five in the morning.
Meanwhile, people were already bustling about but speaking softer in the corridor.
Deirdre had just arrived at theundry room entrance when she suddenly heard the rushed high heels.
clicking from the elevator, as well as Madame Brighthall’s panicked tone, “Coughing up blood? When
did that happen? Why didn’t you notify us earlier!?”
The nurse hastily exined, “Mr. Brighthall won’t let anyone near his room. We only found out when we
entered the room to clean up.”
“How is he now?”
“The doctor is still examining Mr. Brighthall. He just regained his consciousness.”
Deirdre halted to a stop and stood in the same spot. She could clearly hear Madame Brighthall’s
suppressed crying because the surroundings were very quiet.
“It’s all my fault. Had I not forced him, had I not broken them up, this wouldn’t have happened… How is
he going to undergo surgery in his current condition…”
“Don’t be sad, Madame Brighthall. Mr. Brighthall is strong, and he is going to be fine.”
The voices moved further and further away as if they had traveled to the furthest room in unison.
Deirdre shoved theundry into the washing machine and lowered her gaze as she listened to the
whirring sound.
“He has coughed up blood and seems to be in a serious condition. Why is he coughing up blood when
he has only injured his abdomen?
‘Also, his wound was not on his abdomen at all. Is it because of some other reason?”
Deirdre was confused, yet she knew she did not have the slightest connection to Brendan’s affairo now.
She learned to let go after meeting Kyran. She would not gloat even if Brendan was dead, but she
would. only be calm like it was a stranger’s death.
Deirdre opened up the washing machine door when she heard a beep. She felt for her clothes and
ced them into the basin before she turned around and walked outside.
Theundry room was quite a distance away from her room. Deirdre had only taken two steps away
when she heard an astonished voiceing from in front of her. “It’s you?”

Deirdre caught her breath. She continued to walk ahead with her head lowered, but Madame Brighthall
grabbed her and said in an agitated voice, “You… Why are you here!?”
“Please don’t misunderstand, Madame Brighthall.” Deirdre knew she could not hide anymore, so she
answered softly. “I’m not here because of Brendan. My friend is warded in this hospital, and this
meeting. is purely coincidental. I didn’t break my promise, and Brendan is unaware I’m here.”
“No…”
Madame Brighthall was overwhelmed with emotions. She could not help feeling guilty when she
remembered her actions toward Deirdre previously.
She had had no idea that the woman before her was the daughter-inw who had been living with her
for more than two years. Madame Brighthall figured that Deirdre was extremely disappointed by her
judging by Deirdre’s behavior.
“You’ve misunderstood my intention, Char- Ms. McKinnon. In truth, I’m… very happy that you’re here.”
‘Happy?”
Deirdre was stunned and confused.
Madame Brighthall immediately held her hands and said emotionally, “I know that you were the
Charlene who used to live with me, Deirdre!”
All of a sudden, Deirdre’s pupils constricted. She could not believe that Madame Brighthall would know
and pulled back her hands when she realized the situation.
