Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 50

Chapter 50 I Am Her Husband

Charlene was still in a wheelchair. Her eyes reddened, as she felt the injustice of it all. “Brendan, you want me to donate my blood to Ms. McKinnon? You should know that I haven’t recovered yet…”

“When she was pregnant, she still donated her blood to you, didn’t she?” Brendan stopped Charlene from objecting. “She must not die! i’ll tell the nurse to be careful when taking your blood so she doesn’t hurt you.”

Brendan’s remark was akin to him telling Charlene that she couldn’t refuse.

Charlene looked gloomy and scratched the leather cover on the wheelchair with her fingernails so hard that she almost tore it. She forced a smile and said, “Well, the life of Ms. McKinnon is a human life after all. As long as she can survive, it doesn’t matter if I die, let alone donate my blood.”

As soon as she finished her sentence, the nurse appeared in a hurry again. “Is the blood donor here? And who’s the patient’s next of kin? I need a signature for the emergency medical consent form!”

“I am!” Brendan strode forward and said while pursing his lips, “I’m her husband!”

‘Husband?’ Charlene grasped her hands and clenched her

teeth in anger. ‘What does Brendan mean? If he’s Deirdre’s husband, who am I to him?

Deirdre is just a woman with a disfigured face. So what if she jumped off a building? Why would Brendan be so anxious to get me here in the middle of night to donate blood to that bastard?’ Charlene felt rage and fear simultaneously. Even though she had disfigured Deirdre’s face and told her to shut up, she still couldn’t stop Deirdre from making a comeback and taking everything that belonged to her!

After signing the consent form, Charlene was taken to draw blood. Meanwhile, Brendan sat stiffly in his seat with a vacant look on his face.

Brendan’s hands were still covered in blood. He could still somewhat feel Deirdre’s warmth, and his eyes reddened.

‘How dare she jump off a building? How could she be so decisive about leaving? Just for the sake of Sterling?’

Thinking about Sterling filled Brendan’s heart with hatred.

“Buzz…”

A vibrating ringtone came from Brendan’s pocket. He didn’t want to pay attention to it, but when he saw the caller ID, he couldn’t help grasping it tightly.

A voice rang out when Brendan pressed the answer button. “Mr. Brighthall, we have completed the

investigation you requested. Regarding Ms. McKinnon’s eyes, she indeed went blind in prison.”

‘What?’

Brendan frowned slightly. “Are you sure?”

“Yes, we have all the medical reports.”

“When did she go blind?” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

A sigh was heard from the other end of the line before a reply came. “On June 27th.”

It was the exact same date Deirdre had told the doctor. At the time, however, Brendan had reacted with disdain and sarcasticness and stubbornly thought that Deirdre was talking nonsense.

Brendan had even scolded Deirdre and said that it was all her fault before she’d jumped off the building… Brendan suddenly felt intense pain in his chest and felt his chest gradually tighten. He felt like he was out of breath. He couldn’t believe that he had been kept in the dark and he’d had no idea how desperate Deirdre had been. He had thought he had protected her well, but he hadn’t even known about her blindness!

Brendan grasped his phone tightly, his eyes going bloodshot. He finally understood why Deirdre blamed him for everything and hated him so much that she had been willing to jump off the second floor.

Brendan was in extreme pain, and green veins were bulging in his arms. He then ordered his bodyguard, “Get

Steven here!”

The bodyguard was so overwhelmed by Brendan’s intimidating aura that his face turned pale. Nevertheless, he immediately called Steven upon receiving the order.

As soon as Steven arrived, Brendan kicked him hard without showing any mercy.

Charlene, who had just returned from the blood donation and intended to adopt a sweet look of suffering in front of Brendan, gasped as she witnessed the scene.

Charlene knew Steven was just like a brother to Brendan. No matter how serious the trouble Steven caused was, Brendan would only reprimand him. Therefore, she wondered what had caused Brendan to be so furious.

Charlene suddenly felt uneasy.
