Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 744

Chapter 744 Two Sides

Derrick sat at the side of the bed, wrapping his arms around Tiffany from behind. He then said gently, “Uterine septum? Don’t be afraid. I’ll have everything at work sorted out and accompany you to the surgery tomorrow. No matter if you can conceive or not, nothing’s going to change between us. I regret arguing with you yesterday, and my heart ached too. I’m sorry. Please forgive me for acting rashly, okay?”

Tears welled up in Tiffany’s eyes as she heard that. She turned around and looked into Derrick’s eyes. Pretending to be nonchalant, she said, “Did you realize your mistake?”

“Yes. When we just got married, I promised you that whether or not we have arguments in the future, we have to talk things out on the same day. I have to apologize if it’s my mistake, and I have to tell you if you’re the one at fault. We can never allow the misunderstanding to grow into a bigger problem. I know you feel aggrieved, but Mom’s not in good health, and Dad always listens to her. If I were to side with you, they would make things more difficult for you. Thus, I have no choice but to make you put up with them for the time being,” he explained.

His mother had always disliked Tiffany. If he kept defending Tiffany, it would not do any good to the situation but aggravate the tension between her and Kate. By then, Tiffany’s life would only be tougher. Hence, Derrick could only do his best to maintain the harmony of the household so that the Hissons could accept Tiffany from the bottom of their hearts.

A true man would be able to cope with both family and work responsibilities.

It warmed Tiffany’s heart to learn that Derrick had that thought in mind. She thought he had lost interest in her after a few months into their marriage and that he no longer loved her as much as he used to.

Tiffany raised her hand and hit him. With a tearful voice, she said, “I hated you to the core when you argued with me yesterday. You even made me go to the hospital alone today. I was wondering if you’re already sick of me and if I should just divorce you. Fortunately, you did pretty well today. Otherwise, I’ll surely kick you out of the house.”

Derrick caressed her head gently and said in a low voice, “Tiff, I appreciate everything you’ve done for us in this marriage. Back then, you’ve always been carefree, but now, you’re willing to tolerate my family for my sake even when they sometimes make things difficult for you. You’ve grown up to be a good wife to me.”

“I’m glad that you know this. Remember everything you’ve said today. If you betray me one day, I’ll first have you castrated and divorce you after taking most of your assets.”

“I will never let you have the chance to do so.”

The two had cleared the air and reconciled with each other in a timely manner.

The next day, Derrick drove Tiffany to the hospital. Upon knowing it had something to do with the possibility of whether she would have a grandchild or not, Kate went to the hospital with Finnick.

It was always easier to get things done through connections. As soon as Tiffany arrived at the hospital, James prepared the ward for her. After that, the doctor performed a checkup on her and scheduled the surgery for the following afternoon after seeing that she was in great health.

Kate looked for Bridget on purpose and went straight to the point. “Dr. Yeager, I’m Tiffany Winters’ mother-in-law. I guess you still remember her, right? I heard that she has a uterine septum. Will she be able to get pregnant soon after undergoing surgery?”

“Mrs. Hisson, don’t worry. I checked on Ms. Winters. Aside from the uterine anomaly, she’s really healthy. She only needs to take good care of her health and reduce the frequency of staying up late, consuming alcohol, and smoking, to maintain the quality of her ovum. Since both the husband and wife are in good health, she will get pregnant naturally. That’s only if you don’t pressure her that much. It’ll be harder to conceive when she’s under too much stress. You experienced the same before, so I suppose you know what I mean.”

Kate wore a graceful smile. “I know. I’m already sixty years old, so I’ve been a little hasty because I hope to have a grandchild soon. I’ll try to take things slow in the future. Thank you, Dr. Yeager.”

Shaking her head, Bridget replied, “Don’t mention it. I’m just doing what I should as a doctor.”

“All right. I’ll take my leave first and check on Tiffany to see if she needs anything else.”

After that, Kate and Finnick left the office. Kate then said, “Finnick, let me make myself clear. If that woman can’t get pregnant, just chase her out right away. I’ll never allow an infertile woman to stay in the family.”

Finnick went along with her wish. “Don’t be angry. Dad will not tolerate her either if she can’t get pregnant. If the elders find faults in her, she’ll be too embarrassed to stay in the Hisson family and will eventually leave.”

“I’m only afraid that your son will also leave with her.”

“That’s easy. It’s normal for them to be madly in love with each other before they get married, but after some time, they will certainly have some conflicts, just like us. We used to argue when we were younger, but now we’re closer to each other as we grow older. We just have to add fuel to the fire when they have conflicts. I can tell Tiffany is a prideful person. She will naturally get a divorce if there’s a misunderstanding,” Finnick said confidently.
