Too Much To Bear, My Love Chapter 830

Chapter 830 What Can I Do

“Derrick, you divorced Tiffany because of that woman? You’re behaving like a teenager now,” Jennifer sneered while looking at Derrick. Upon hearing that, Derrick responded with a wry smile.

After taking a bite of the food, Jennifer continued, “Derrick, tell me the truth. Are you sure you’re willing to part ways with Tiffany? What if someone who loves and cares for her appears in her life? What if Tiffany carries his baby? What if they live happily ever after, yet you’re stuck with a woman you don’t love? Wouldn’t you be jealous?”

Derrick clenched his fists so tightly that his veins started popping up. Any discussion about Tiffany would cause him to lose his mind. He could no longer think clearly. Like a beast trapped in a cage, Derrick answered, “She doesn’t even want to see me. What else can I do?”

A corner of Jennifer’s lips quirked up. I knew it. He might be a smart guy, but when it comes to Tiffany, he’ll lose his train of thought and analytical ability.

“You’re an intelligent man and a successful businessman. Even when you crossed over into the filming industry, you performed your duties as a producer well. But somehow, you don’t seem to understand women. I wouldn’t believe anyone who tries to convince me that Tiffany has no feelings for you. She’s just concerned about Crystal’s baby.” Jennifer paused for a bit before giving the man a ruthless glare. “I don’t think you look forward to the baby’s arrival either. Why not just get rid of it? Get it done right now before it’s too late. You don’t seem like the kind of man who would show women mercy, anyway.”

That idea did cross Derrick’s mind, but when Tiffany insisted on getting a divorce, he had utterly lost his composed self. He was so busy feeling sorry for himself that he did not have time to think of Crystal and the baby.

“So, what’s your plan? Keep the baby? Derrick, I’ll tell you what I have in mind right now. Once Crystal gives birth to the child, Tiffany and you are over. I could tell Tiffany is not a forgiving person, so you better weigh your options,” Jennifer advised.

A subtle glint flashed across the man’s eyes. He was overwhelmed by mixed emotions.

Jennifer shrugged and said, “Of course, I totally understand you’re the father of Crystal’s baby, and you might not have the heart to get rid of it. But it also means you cherish an unborn child more than Tiffany.”

Derrick’s face turned grim instantly.

“I know what to do now,” he said in a deep voice. He never thought of keeping Crystal’s baby in the first place. I only want Tiffany to carry my baby. If she’s not the mother to my child, I’d rather not become a father.

Derrick liked children, but they were not as important as Tiffany.

Jennifer nodded. She decided not to ask further.

Derrick looked at her and said, “Jennifer, are you able to talk to Tiffany? Look after her for me. Once I settle the woman and the baby, I’ll look for her.”

“All right.” Jennifer thought for a while and continued, “You know what, Derrick? I can help you. I can’t get women pregnant, but I know ways to induce a miscarriage. If you’re not convenient doing it, I can do it for you.”

Derrick sized the woman up and started regaining his senses. He felt something amiss about Jennifer as he did not understand why she was so eager to lend him a hand.

“Why do you want to help me, Jennifer? To me, you don’t look like a helpful person,” Derrick questioned her motive.

“You have your motive, and I have mine. Amelia would thank me for helping you reunite with Tiffany, and I’ll be able to get in Oscar’s good books. I used to go against him in the past because I was too stupid, but I’ve learned that Larson Group would stand a better chance in expanding our business as long as he has our back.” Jennifer said matter-of-factly. “So me helping you is a win-win situation. That said, it’s all right if you still don’t trust me. We don’t have to work together, anyway.”

Derrick retracted his scrutinizing gaze and said, “Okay. I trust you.”

Jennifer smirked and said, “Well, if that’s the case, I’ll get rid of Crystal’s baby for you then.”

“That won’t be necessary. I can do it myself. I’m a man, and I don’t need to depend on a woman.”

Jennifer merely shrugged. Whatever he says.

After dinner, the two walked out of the restaurant and went their separate ways. Jennifer then got into the car and called June.

“Do me a favor, June,” said Jennifer. She proceeded to tell June to get rid of Crystal’s baby. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

June was confused. “Crystal Halliwell? What the heck? I don’t even know her. Why should I do that to her baby? You think I have nothing better to do, huh?”

“Crystal is Devin Halliwell’s granddaughter. Devin is an influential and respectable figure in Saspiuburg. She has been pestering Derrick and now is carrying his child. You better do as I say if you want me to get close to the two Winters. Stop being so wishy-washy,” Jennifer expressed her annoyance.

June replied, “Give me her information. I’ll get someone to see to it.”

“Thanks. You’ll receive details about her in a moment.”

When she was about to end the call, June stopped her. “Come over here tonight. I’ve not touched you in a while. Let’s spend a night together.”

Jennifer responded indifferently, “Excuse me? It’s not my responsibility to warm your bed. And you should start respecting me as your equal partner.”

June responded with a cold snort and mocked, “So you’re protecting your chastity for Carter now? I hope you still remember our video has once gone viral on the internet. You can’t just forget about that, can you?”

Jennifer’s face turned ashen. She was infuriated and embarrassed at the same time.

“June, if you don’t intend to show me any respect, I don’t think I can work with you anymore,” Jennifer said icily.

June replied nonchalantly, “You don’t like what I said? But I’m telling the truth. Do you think Carter would cherish you like a treasure? You’re nothing but a piece of trash. Either you come over tonight, or I’ll send our sex videos to him. I’m sure he’ll be pleased to see his woman being pinned to the bed by another man.”

Jennifer grimaced. “You’re a jerk!”

After hanging up on him, she looked down at the blank screen and started shivering.

Jennifer knew she was playing with fire when she started working with June. At this point, it was too late for regrets.

Her relationship with Carter was no longer pure. Sometimes, she was afraid Carter might one day learn about her past and begin to despise her.

She shut her eyes and tried to calm her mind. After regaining her composure, she opened her eyes and drove back to the office.

Meanwhile, Derrick had returned to the office. His secretary caught up with him and said, “Mr. Hisson, Mr. Feltham is here.”

Derrick knitted his brows, and his expression darkened. After responding to his secretary’s remark with a nod, he opened the door and entered his office.

Alex got up from the couch and greeted him, “Mr. Hisson.”

“Mr. Feltham, I remember telling you I can help Tiffany take care of the company, but she’ll remain the entity’s owner. I also intend to transfer all my assets into her account. What else do you want to see me for?” Derrick said frankly.

Alex took a document out of his briefcase and said, “Mr. Hisson, Ms. Winters didn’t sign the papers. She’s also not interested in the property assets and the villas under your name. Since she didn’t drop her signature on it, the document is not legally enforceable. Kindly go through the papers. If you have no other questions, I shall take my leave now.”

Derrick took over the document, flipped through the pages, and noticed that the few signature columns were left blank.

His expression turned grim. Though he had asked Alex to bring the document to Tiffany on three different trips, the latte still refused to sign the papers. She doesn’t want my properties. She just wants to cut ties with me.

The man felt miserable. It was as though someone was clenching his heart tightly.

“Did she say anything else?” Derrick lowered his eyes and said.

“Ms. Winters wants me to tell you that she doesn’t want all these. She’ll also transfer the money back to you soon. Since you two are divorced, she wants nothing to do with you anymore,” Alex said matter-of- factly.

Derrick could only respond with a wry smile. “You can leave now.”

Alex bobbed his head in response. He grabbed his briefcase and left the office.

Derrick cupped his head with his hands and whispered, “Tiffany, I know it’s my fault. But why wouldn’t you take the money? What can I do to get you to forgive me?”

No one could give him an answer as he was the only person in the office.
