Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 712

Chapter 712 Seduce The Husband Of Your Sister

The moment Tiffany woke up, the first thing she saw was a pair of bloodshot eyes gazing gently at her. Startled, she took a look at the owner of the eyes again and chuckled. “Derrick, what are you doing? You didn’t want to sleep, so you watched me sleep?”

Derrick grabbed her hand and put it on his face, apologizing in a gentle tone, “I’m sorry.” Stunned momentarily, Tiffany asked in bewilderment, “Why did you apologize to me all of a sudden?”

“I lied to you. I actually went to have a meal with Crystal, but I can explain that. There’s nothing going on between Crystal and me. If I do love her, I wouldn’t have dated you for three years and married you after that.” Derrick went straight to the point.

Tiffany could not help but burst out laughing. She sat up on the bed and cupped his face. “Amelia told you about the pictures?”

Derrick nodded. “Ever since we got married, we’ve been busy with our own careers. Besides, our families are involved in our lives. It’s been a long time since we last had the time to sit down and chat together. I’m deeply sorry for not keeping you company when you were mistreated in the Hisson residence.”

His words warmed her heart, and the grievance she had been nursing vanished instantly.

“Derrick, I’m glad you said that.” She smiled. “As long as we love each other, I don’t mind being mistreated.”

Taking her into his arms, he raised his hand and stroked the bruise on her face. “Did you really get this because you accidentally bumped into something?”

Tiffany lifted her gaze to look at him, seemingly as though she was trying to decipher the meaning behind his words.

“If it wasn’t for my own carelessness, do you think a housekeeper would dare to injure me?” she replied to his question with another question in amusement.

Derrick’s gaze darkened. He nodded and said tenderly, “Be careful next time. Try your best not to injure yourself. Otherwise, my heart would ache for you.”

She nodded.

Tiffany then asked Derrick to bring her phone over. As she glanced at her phone, only then did she realize that it was currently one o’clock in the morning, which meant that she had slept for quite a long time.

“It’s so late? No wonder I’m famished. Why didn’t you wake me up?” she asked.

“I couldn’t bring myself to do so after seeing how soundly you were sleeping,” Derrick answered. “Are you still feeling sleepy? If not, you can eat something before continuing to sleep. I stored the food I ordered inside the insulated food containers. The food is still warm, and the dishes are your favorites.”

“Sure.”

After eating, Tiffany chatted with Derrick for a while and got back to sleep.

The next day, they went to the hospital together and took an elevator to head upstairs. The moment she stepped out of the elevator, from the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a woman hugging a man from behind. She couldn’t recognize who that woman was at that moment, but she instantly realized who that man was.

Furious, she stormed over at a brisk pace in her high heels. Derrick hurriedly caught up to her and pulled her arm, signaling her to calm down first.

Her rational thought was almost overridden by her blazing rage. She brushed his hand off her and roared, “Let go of me. I want to see how shameless those two people can get. How can they commit adultery in broad daylight while they’re at a hospital? I’m so pissed off!”

Just as those words left her mouth, a loud thud sounded from a stone’s throw away. It was the sound of a heavy object falling onto the ground.

Tiffany and Derrick immediately glanced over, and their jaws dropped in unison. The woman, who was hugging the man just now, was thrown over the shoulder and fell to the ground.

Tiffany was dumbstruck for a second. When she heard the man’s frosty voice, a chill ran down her spine. She then gave him a thumbs-up as she muttered under her breath, “Cool!”

Derrick dragged her over and didn’t even bother to look at the woman on the floor. “Mr. Clinton, where are your manners as a gentleman?” Derrick was all smiles.

Tiffany chimed in, “She wants to steal a married man. Does a b*tch like her deserve to be treated well by a gentleman?”

Derrick merely grinned in response.

Tiffany then went to check out who the bold woman was, but upon seeing the woman’s appearance clearly, Tiffany blurted out in fury, “Amelia Hutton? You! He’s your brother-in-law, and this is a hospital! If you’re a decent human being, you wouldn’t have seduced your brother-in-law in public.”
