Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 822

Chapter 822 Will Not Acknowledge

After eating, Tiffany guarded Amelia on the right side, completely separating Gary from Amelia. “Gary, thank you for taking me out today. I feel much better now. I’ll definitely buy you a meal when I have the chance next time. We’ll be going now. See you,” said Tiffany politely yet indifferently.

Gary nodded. His gaze deepened as he watched them get in the car and drive off. In the car, Amelia looked at Tiffany, who became silent again and asked, “Tiff, why did you treat Gary like that just now?”

Tiffany turned her head. “I don’t want Oscar to kill me.” Amelia was puzzled by her answer. “Can’t you see that Gary is interested in you?”

Amelia was amused. “Tiff, you think too much. I’m married, and I have a son. No other men would be interested in me.”

“Amelia, please don’t forget that you attract men easily. Out of the ten men that you meet, nine of them will fall in love with you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have so much emotional debt.”

Amelia was rendered speechless. “You’d better stay away from him in the future. After all, there’s no harm in keeping a distance.” Amelia remained silent for a moment and nodded.

When they got home, they were surprised to see Terrence and Derrick. Amelia held Tiffany’s hand and walked over with her. “Old Mr. Hisson, when did you get here? You should’ve given us a call,” said Amelia politely.

“I just arrived. I’m here to see my granddaughter-in-law. There’s finally someone to open the door for me this time.” Terrence glanced at Tiffany.

Tiffany looked at him and uttered, “Granddad.”

Terrence smiled. “I’m happy to hear you calling me ‘granddad’ again! I thought you wouldn’t talk to me anymore after having the conflict with Derrick.”

“I wouldn’t dare.”

“Let’s sit down and have a talk.”

Amelia and Tiffany sat on the couch where Oscar was sitting.

Oscar stroked Amelia’s hair and asked gently, “Did you have fun?”

“Kind of. The trip was mainly to cheer Tiff up. Have you eaten?”

“Yes.”

The two chatted as if there was no one around. Meanwhile, Derrick had been looking at Tiffany the whole time.

Terrence coughed a little to attract everyone’s attention.

“Tiff, you told me that you’ll give me an explanation. Go ahead and say it. I can take it,” said Terrence.

Tiffany looked at him and said bluntly, “Granddad, I’m going to get a divorce.”

“Is there nothing we can do to change your mind?”

“I’m sorry, Granddad. Derrick and I are just not meant for each other. Ms. Halliwell is more suitable for him.”

Terrence looked at Derrick, who was sitting there like a blockhead. “Derrick, don’t you want to say something?” huffed Terrence.

Derrick looked at Tiffany sadly and muttered, “I’m sorry, Tiff. I don’t want to make excuses for the mistake that I made. But what you saw at the office that day was really a misunderstanding. I brought a video. If you still have some faith in me, please watch the video. And if you still insist on getting a divorce after watching it, then I have nothing else to say.”

Tiffany stared at the flash drive in his hand with mixed emotions.

She struggled in her heart for a moment but took over the flash drive in the end.

Derrick heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that if she was willing to watch the video, there was a high chance that she would forgive him.

“Tiff, thank you for your willingness to watch it. We don’t want to disturb you anymore. You have a good rest. I’ll wait for your answer after you watch the video,” said Derrick in a deep voice.

Tiffany nodded in response.

After Derrick left, Tiffany said, “Babe, I’m going up.”

“Go ahead.”

Tiffany went upstairs and locked herself in the room.

Oscar put his arm around Amelia’s waist and reassured her, “Don’t worry. She’ll be fine.”

Amelia nodded. “I know. I just didn’t expect them to come to such an ending.”

“Derrick was the one who asked for it. I would never do anything that would hurt my wife’s feelings,” Oscar said with confidence. However, little did he know that Amelia would be hurt so badly by his indifference in the near future.

The night passed peacefully.

The next day, Tiffany wanted to take a trip to the Hisson residence. She asked Amelia to invite the lawyer, Alex Feltham, to go with her.

Amelia asked, “Tiff, have you made up your mind?”

Tiffany nodded. The despair in her eyes faded. Instead, they were filled with determination now.

“Our marriage has to come to an end. I didn’t watch the video in the flash drive last night. No matter what’s in it, it’s still an undeniable fact that he slept with Crystal,” said Tiffany.

Amelia patted her shoulder. “We’ll support you for whatever decision you make. Oscar and I will go with you with the lawyers.”

Oscar invited all his best lawyers in divorce lawsuits. A group of nearly ten people arrived at the Hisson residence.

Looking at such a scene, Kate was a little unhappy. She glanced at Tiffany, then looked at Oscar and said, “Oscar, what is this all about?”

“These are the best divorce lawyers in my company. Since my god-sister is going to get a divorce, I must ensure that her interests are well protected,” replied Oscar.

Hearing the word “divorce,” Kate instantly became happy.

“Tiffany, are you here today to talk about the divorce?” Although she was unhappy that Oscar brought along so many lawyers, nothing could bother her at this moment as long as the divorce could come true.

“It is as you wish, Mrs. Hisson. I’ll no longer be your daughter-in-law,” said Tiffany lightly.

Kate smirked and politely let them sit down.

Terrence and Derrick came down from upstairs and were a little shocked to see so many people at their house.

“Dad, Tiffany is here to talk about the divorce. These are her lawyers. It seems like she’s not interested in being your granddaughter-in-law anymore,” Kate added fuel to the fire while holding Terrence.

Terrence’s face immediately darkened.

He sat down and said, “Oscar, why did you bring so many divorce lawyers for Tiff?”

“Please don’t get me wrong, Old Mr. Hisson. We’re just here to support Tiff. If the Hisson family intends to pressure her, we will help to protect her rights.” Oscar crossed his feet and leaned on the couch lazily with his arm around Amelia.

He then glanced at one of the lawyers. The latter immediately understood the signal and walked toward Terrence. “Old Mr. Hisson, this is my business card. My name is Alex Feltham. I’m a lawyer specializing in divorce lawsuits, and I’ll represent Ms. Winters in her divorce negotiation.”

Terrence ignored the business card that Alex handed over. “Mr. Feltham, this is a misunderstanding. My grandson and granddaughter-in-law are not going to divorce. Please have a seat, and I’ll talk to Tiff.”

Alex turned to look at Oscar, and Oscar nodded in response.

He politely returned to his seat.

Terrence said, “Tiff, I thought you’d forgiven Derrick when you took over the flash drive yesterday. Can you tell me what’s going on?”

“I’m sorry, Granddad. I thought about it all night, and I don’t think I can get back together with Derrick. I’m just an ordinary author with no outstanding background. I don’t think I meet the requirements of your family,” said Tiffany.

Terrence laughed in exasperation.

“Even if I beg you, are you still not going to change your mind?”

“I’m sorry.”

Derrick clenched his fists so tightly that his veins started popping up, and his nails turned pale.

He stood up and walked toward Tiffany.

Seeing that, Oscar immediately got up too and reached out to stop Derrick.

Derrick stared at Oscar with bloodshot eyes and uttered in a low voice, “Mr. Clinton, you’re a man too. You should understand my feelings. I just want to have a few words with Tiff. If she insists on getting a divorce after this, I won’t stop her anymore.”

Hearing that, Oscar stepped aside.

Derrick held Tiffany’s hand and walked out of the mansion. He led her to a quiet area to have a private talk.
