Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665 Lay Waste To That Part

Amelia said, “Jolin, find out this man’s background.”

“Understood, Mrs. Clinton,” Jolin replied as she pinned the man on the ground with her foot.

Amelia then helped Tiffany up before saying, “I’ll bring Tiff to her room first. Make sure you keep his mouth clamped shut. Since he likes forcing himself on girls so much, I’d say we should lay waste to that part of his so that he won’t do the same thing to other women.”

“Understood, Mrs. Clinton.” Jolin was eager to jump into action, while the man under her foot paled. Instinctively, he covered his crotch. Just as he was about to scream for help, Jolin uttered, “Go on. Scream. I’d like to see if those people will come to your help faster or if I’ll destroy your crown jewels faster.”

Immediately, the man shut his mouth up, but he continued to shake in fear.

Amelia helped Tiffany into the room before grabbing a drink for her from the refrigerator. “Have a drink to calm down. I’ve already called and asked someone to send you another set of clothes.

Tiffany then opened the bottle and took a sip of the cold drink. The coolness of the liquid made her calmness return.

“Are you feeling better now?” Amelia asked in concern.

Tiffany nodded. Indeed, her face was not as colorless as it was a moment ago.

“Babe, thank you. If not for you, I think I might not have been able to escape such a horrendous situation,” Tiffany told her with a pale smile.

“It’s nothing between the two of us. Once you’ve changed into the new clothes, I’ll call and ask Derrick and Oscar to come over.”

Tiffany gave her a slight nod.

The clothes were soon sent over. Amelia then asked Tiffany to change into them in the bathroom. Once she was done, Amelia said, “I’ve called Oscar, and they’re on their way over. With us here, no one will be able to hurt you, so don’t be scared.”

By then, Tiffany had already recomposed herself. She replied with a chuckle, “Babe, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Amelia let out a sigh of relief. Tiffany was much stronger than she thought. If it were another woman, she might have been bawling her eyes out in a mental breakdown. Amelia was glad that her friend was capable of recovering in such a short time.

Both Derrick and Oscar came quick. Right as Amelia opened the door for them, Derrick rushed past her toward Tiffany. He then hugged her and kissed her cheek before worriedly asking, “Are you okay?”

As Tiffany buried herself in his arms, the feelings of indignation she suppressed earlier exploded instantly. As she sobbed, she said, “Derrick, you’re finally here! I was so scared. That man nearly raped me! Thank god Amelia saved me. I was so terrified.”

In an apologetic tone, Derrick whispered, “This is all my fault. I didn’t protect you well enough. It won’t happen again, so don’t be scared.”

Seeing that, Oscar wrapped his arm around Amelia’s waist and said, “Let’s go out first. Give them some space.”

Amelia nodded in acknowledgment.

She and Oscar then tiptoed out of the room to give Derrick and Tiffany some privacy.

Once they were outside, Oscar gave Amelia a once-over. “You’re not hurt, are you?”

Amelia shook her head. “Jolin was with me.”

As Oscar caressed the back of her head, he said, “I’m thinking of adding another two bodyguards for you. I’m worried that Jolin won’t be able to protect you by herself.”

Amelia was amused by his words.

“Oscar, don’t be paranoid. Tiff was the victim. We should think about finding the one targeting her instead. This person is too vicious. If they had gotten their way with Tiff with so many people at the wedding, she would undoubtedly become everyone’s laughing stock. Besides that, her relationship with Derrick would come to an end. That person is clearly trying to destroy Tiff!” As Amelia spoke, she became increasingly infuriated.

“Don’t worry. Jolin will surely get the answers from him,” Oscar reassured her confidently. After all, he had confidence in the interrogation skills of the people he personally trained.

Sure enough, Jolin came over after an hour and informed, “Boss, Mrs. Clinton, I’ve found out that Crystal Halliwell was the one behind this.”

“What did you do with that man?” Amelia asked.

“I destroyed that part of his before getting two people to take him away to another place. We’re waiting for your instructions, Ms. Winters,” Jolin reported solemnly.

Only then did Amelia let out a sigh of relief.

“You’ve done excellently this time, Jolin. I’ll cook up a great meal for you once we’re back,” Amelia told her.

“Thank you, Mrs. Clinton.”

By the time Derrick and Tiffany came out, the latter had already recollected herself.

After a glance at Derrick, Amelia told him, “Derrick, Jolin has already found out from that man that Crystal was the one who ordered him to do this. As Tiff’s boyfriend and the reason she suffered this, I’m sure you know what to do. I hope you won’t disappoint Tiff again. If you can’t keep her safe, I’d doubt whether you’re the right one for her.”

Derrick pursed his lips upon hearing that, and the expression on his face was grim as a murderous glint flashed past his eyes.

“All right. It’s the newlyweds’ big day today. Let’s talk about this again after the wedding is over,” Oscar interrupted, trying to ease the tension in the air.

Derrick nodded at that.

The five of them then returned to the venue. The bride and the groom were already on the stage, and when Crystal saw that Tiffany was fine and entering the venue with Derrick, a flash of frustration and resentment appeared in her eyes. However, right as Derrick landed his gaze on her, she immediately put on a demure facade and smiled at him.

Derrick looked away and took a seat while keeping his arm around Tiffany.

Kate glanced at Tiffany and grumbled, “Tiffany, weren’t you just going to the washroom? Why did you need everyone to go with you as well? What’s the matter? Did you fall into the toilet?”

Tiffany only smiled in response.

However, Derrick frowned and replied, “Mom, it’s my cousin’s wedding today. I’m sure you don’t want her to be unhappy today, right?”

As Kate fiddled with her slender fingers, she sneered and fell silent.

Once the wedding was over, Derrick halted Crystal in her tracks and said to his mother, “Mom, I’d like to speak to Ms. Halliwell in private. You don’t mind her coming to shop with me for a while, right?”

Kate threw a glimpse at Tiffany, who was sticking to Amelia, and answered in disbelief, “Why are you getting Crystal to come with you? Why don’t you just talk to her right here and now?”

“Mom, you want to listen to our conversation, don’t you? Come with me, then. I’d like to show you how wicked this daughter-in-law of your choice is,” Derrick grimly said to her.

At that, Kate cast a strange look at Crystal and whispered, “Crystal, what have you done?”

A trace of fear flickered past Crystal’s eyes. She could guess that the man she sent must have told them that she was the mastermind. Otherwise, Derrick would not be so hostile toward her all of a sudden.

What an idiot. He couldn’t even deal with a woman, and he even revealed my name.

Despite the countless thoughts that raced through her mind, she continued to put on an innocent facade. “No, I didn’t, Mrs. Hisson. I don’t know what Derrick wants to talk to me about either. Maybe there’s some kind of misunderstanding.”

Derrick then turned to his mother. “Mom, since she said she hasn’t done anything, just let her come with me. I won’t let this matter go otherwise.”

Kate had no choice but to follow along at his insistent attitude.

The group of people then returned to the hotel and took the elevator to the highest floor. When they reached the room, Jolin knocked on the door. Soon, someone opened it.

Upon seeing Oscar, the subordinate who opened the door greeted, “Boss.”
