Chapter 132 Ungrateful She felt as if she could watch the scene of Blissâ tragic death in the backyard at that very moment. She experienced an emotional breakdown and said, âTake it away! Leave!â
Brendan had been looking forward to Deirdreâs reaction, yet his face turned green with anger instantly when he heard her tell him to leave. Soon, his gaze turned icy.
âDeirdre, why are you acting crazy? Werenât you devastated over the dogâs death yesterday? I got you al new dog, yet not only have you not shown any appreciation, but your behavior is disgusting!â
âShow appreciation?â
Deirdreâs chest was racing, and she felt endless coldness enshrouding her, as if she was trapped in an ice cellar.
âDo you think that having another dog take Blissâ place right after Blissâ death will make everything better? As though the incident never took place?â
âWhat else could I do?â Brendan sniggered. He did not feel any emotion for animals. âDo you want me to resurrect the dog?â
Deirdre wanted to laugh. So it turned out that, in Brendanâs opinion, anything that was lost could be replaced with a similar item.
âLeave.â Her lips were trembling. âGet out! Leave!â
Brendan was infuriated. He caught her by surprise when he clutched her lower jaw, his eyes burning with agitation. âDeirdre, donât you dare be ungrateful. Do you know how much money I spent just to get a dog. that looked like the previous dog?â
Not only had he experienced an allergic reaction, but the money he had spent on this dog had been enough to buy ten dogs of popular breeds. In the end, he had to make peace with Deirdre not expressing her appreciation to him. Instead, Deirdre had actually responded with a disgusting attitude.
âWhat have I done to deserve this, Deirdre?!â
Deirdre was in so much pain that she teared up, yet she held back her tears by force. âI donât need a dog. I donât need your condescending pity because I hate dogs and I hate the powerless feeling of failing to protect someone else. A person like me doesnât deserve to keep a dog as a pet!â
She breathed heavily. âPlease leave!â
Brendan was extremely furious. He clenched his fists tightly as he looked at Deirdre, who was crying profusely. He left, slamming the door while holding the cage in his hand.
Charlene had already heard the commotion and stood by the door, attempting to eavesdrop. Brendan got out of the room just in time to meet her eyes. She was stunned for a moment before she saw Brendan holding the cage.
Her heart started racing for a second. The dog looked so similar that she almost assumed that the previous puppy had survived the ordeal and had come back to seek revenge on her. However, she realized soon enough that it was only her imagination.
Brendan had actually found a similar dog. âWhat is he trying to do⦠Is he trying to appease Deirdre?
He came rushing back from the company on purpose just for that woman.â
Charlene was burning with jealousy at that thought.
âBrendan,â she said in a weak, gentle voice. âWhat happened?â
âNothing.â Brendanâs eyes were filled with agitation, âI shouldnât have poked my nose into other peopleâs business He tossed the cage on the coffee table and called someone to take the dog. Charlene bit her lip without Brendan noticing it She said after Brendan ended the call. âSo it turns out that the dog was specifically purchased for Ms McKinnon Itâs no wonder the dog looks very similar to the dead one Brendan, that was really thoughtful of you Is it because Ms. McKinnon is not in a good mood that she hasnât been appreciative?â
Brendan was even more disgusted. âWho does she think she is to have such an attitude? Sheâs only seizing this opportunity to milk the situation and show her griefâ
âYou went to great trouble, Brendan. If I was Ms. McKinnon, Iâd most certainly be very touchedâ¦â
Charlene smiled bitterly. âI envy Ms. McKinnon very much because you treat her so wellâ¦
âSo well?â
The words triggered Brendan.
