Resent, Reject, Regret

Chapter 891

Chapter 891 Police Swoop

Mr. Zimmer watched them for a long time. He wanted to say something but refrained

from speaking forcefully.

“If you think your choice is right, you may go on, but it will be difficult for you to remove

Desmond from his position when he holds it steadily. I’m with you.”

Upon saying that, he turned around and left.

Deirdre said, “Mr. Zimmer has a good attitude but is exasperated by you.” “I know.”

Brendan was calm and composed.

Deirdre asked, “Do you regret helping me in the hospital? If you were to send

someone to help, you would still be safe and sound and would be the Brighthall

Group’s ruler now.”

Brendan’s gaze landed on Deirdre’s face with a meaningful look on his face. “My only

regret is not helping you when I passed by the room the first time.”

He spoke in a sincere tone, and his gaze was deep.

Deirdre was at a loss for words, so she could only answer, “You will regret it.” Then,

she lowered her head to take a sip of her juice.

The party was peaceful. In fact, Deirdre was feeling tired when it was nearing the end.

Brendan told her, “Just bear with it for a little more. There’s going to be a grand show

later, and you’ll be a part of it.” “What do you mean?”

Deirdre blurted, and before she could respond, the hall door was opened abruptly. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

The security guard hastily said, ‘The police are here!”

The crowd was clamorous upon hearing that.

“What?” “The police are here? We’re having a party here and haven’t done anything

wrong. What are they doing here?” “Are you dumb or something? They’re here to

capture the criminal, of course!” “Miss McKinnon?”

In an instant, everyone’s gazes were fixed on Deirdre and Brendan. Some were

surprised, some were angry, and some were disgusted.

“This is a harboring crime! If word of a criminal found in the Brighthall Group’s party

spreads, who’s going to trust our company anymore from now on?” “Mr. Brighthall has

gone too far. He is dismissed from the board of directors due to his own fault, yet he is

actually engaging in such a disgraceful act to seek revenge on the company!”

Desmond walked over in strides. “Brendan Brighthall! Look what you’ve done! You’re

doing this on purpose, right? You know that the party is held because I’ll be taking

over the company, so you brought Miss McKinnon to the party and got the police to

storm the Brighthall Group!”

The crowd was furious. Someone said from the side, “Mr. Brighthall, is it worth doing

this for a woman? You’ve actually implicated the company’s future, and that is truly

abominable!”

Brendan tasted the liquor in a calm and composed manner. “What’s with the nerves,

everyone? I didn’t do anything to the party. If they really are here to capture someone,

it doesn’t seem to be related to me, right?” “Not related to you?” Desmond gnashed

his teeth in rage and was inconsolable. “How dare you say that! Aren’t the police here

for your female companion? Everyone is well aware of her identity as a criminal!”

Brendan twirled the glass, and his gaze was ghastly and cold. “Mr. Griffin, my advice

to you is to speak with evidence. Who is the criminal? Not even the law can convict

Deirdre for her crime, yet you sound like you’re superior to the law.”

Desmond regarded Brendan as feigning his calmness. He grunted and said, “Speak

with evidence? The police have surrounded the area outside the company, which is

evidence! They’re here for Miss McKinnon today so they can capture her, and that is

the evidence!

“Mr. Brighthall, I was planning on holding the CEO position temporarily out of respect

for you earlier, but you’ve just assured me not to hand over the Brighthall Group to

you ever after seeing your trick!

“You have no consideration for the company’s future when you bring Miss McKinnon

to make trouble. In fact, you’re trying to implicate the company as well. You don’t

deserve to be the future ruler of the Brighthall Group!”
