Chapter 714Chapter 712
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.”
Undoubtedly, Tiffany's voice was booming, attracting the attention of the healthcare workers and
patients walking by.
Feeling her face burn with embarrassment, Amelia hurriedly stumbled to her feet and immediately
winced in pain when her movement pulled on the muscles on her back. When Oscar hurled her over
his shoulder just now, her back had crashed against the ground forcefully, hence her sore back.
Fortunately, she didn't have a fracture.
Amelia glowered at the surrounding onlookers and huffed, “What are you looking at? Scram!”
Undaunted, the group of people still looked enthusiastic. Not only did the crowd not disperse, but one
of them also mocked, “Beautiful, go on.”
People nowadays are really annoying. I can't believe people like them still exist in society.
Amelia's attractive face was distorted with rage, and for a second, she struggled to breathe.
Tiffany hollered, “Everyone, come and have a look at this heiress! She's jealous of her sister's perfectmarriage, so she goes all out to seduce her brother-in-law. I've never seen such a shameless sister-in-
law like her.”
Amelia's face turned ashen. A mix of embarrassment, shamefulness, and anger surged within her.
“Tiffany, that's enough.”
“What? You were not abashed when you were luring your brother-in-law just now. You finally feel
ashamed now?” Tiffany insulted scornfully.
Amelia's face got as red as a beet.
“You're unbelievable.” With that, she pushed her way through the crowd and scurried off.
Tiffany still felt a burning rage inside of her, but seeing that Eleanor's ward was nearby, she decided not
to kick up a fuss to prevent Amelia Winters from coming out and witnessing the scene. Tiffany didn't
want to put her best friend in a tight spot.
“You all should leave now. There's nothing else to see here,” Tiffany urged, waving her hands at the
crowd.
Only then did the crowd disperse.
Crossing her arms across her chest, Tiffany glared at Oscar. “Mr. Clinton, I see you have a lot of
admirers. There are already two avid admirers in Tayhaven. I can't believe you even attracted your
wife's sister in Saspiuburg. Can you just keep your charm to yourself? If Amelia sees this, do you know
how sad she would be?” Oscar pursed his lips, his gaze darkening rapidly. He, too, didn't expect that Amelia Hutton would be so
bold. When he had come out to give someone a call, she had also followed him out and hugged him
from behind all of a sudden. It seems like the lesson I taught her at the hotel is not enough. That's why
she thinks she can do whatever she wants.
As his obsidian-like eyes narrowed into slits, a hint of malice glimmered in his eyes.
Looks like I really need to teach Amelia Hutton a lesson again. Otherwise, she'd be even bolder and
have it her own way. This time, she hugged me from behind, and then next time, she may tear up my
clothes and say that I want to force myself on her.
“Hey, Mr. Clinton. We saw what happened just now. Don't you want to explain yourself?” Tiffany
questioned in exasperation.
Oscar gave her a glance. “What do you want me to say? There's nothing going on between me and
that woman. If I didn't love Amelia, I would openly date any woman. I didn't need to be surreptitious
about it. Besides, I'm Oscar Clinton. I don't need to be discreet.”
With that, he strode away.
“Hey, Oscar Clinton! You were the one hooking up with someone else. Don't you want to say
something?” Tiffany's rage intensified.
Oscar paid her no mind.
Derrick slung his arm around Tiffany's shoulders and tried to calm her down. “Tiff, don't be madanymore. I believe there's nothing fishy between Mr. Clinton and Amelia Hutton.”
“Of course, I know. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let him go. It's just that I'm not very happy with his
attitude. I can't believe so many women like him. Can't I force him to make a promise on behalf of
Amelia? Just look at his cold, snarky attitude. He really pisses me off!”
Derrick was at a loss.
“Tiff, this is a matter between Amelia and him. Even though Amelia is your best friend, it'd be better for
you not to intervene in their matter. Mr. Clinton's personality might be a bit cold, but his feelings for
Amelia are sincere. Just like what he had said, if he was just toying with Amelia, he would have courted
any women he wanted openly.”
That was why Tiffany felt even angrier.
There was still a fire burning in Tiffany's heart, but she could not do anything to Oscar either.
