"Mother asked me to invite Ms. Stanford to cooperate with the investigation. Colbert, what do you think?" Derek cast Colbert a tentative glance.
Colbert froze with the cigarette still in his mouth, and a chill flashed in his eyes.
That cold look swept through Derek momentarily before Colbert slowly retracted his gaze. "You're a smart man. About whom you're allowed and not allowed to touch, I think..."
He deliberately paused for a few seconds before saying, "You must be very clear about it!"
Those words were full of warning.
Derek said, "Since you like Ms. Stanford, why did you marry Ms. Baldwin? And now things have turned out like this. Colbert, it's not that I'm blaming you, but you're really handling this badly."
Derek leaned sideways on the sofa. With one hand resting on his knee and another on the back of the sofa, his arrogant posture was like a silent contest to Colbert.
Colbert said, "Since you know that it's my business, you should just stay out of my way!"
He did not treat Derek with the slightest bit of respect with his indifferent attitude.
"Hahaha."
