Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 139 He Is A Charming Man

Tiffany observed Amelia and Derrick. She was not a fool and understood perfectly well the hidden agenda behind their dialogues.

Derrick served Tiffany some food. “You’ve slimmed down recently. Eat more.”

Realizing what she was served, Tiffany took a peek at Amelia, who was enjoying her meal with her head down, and then she cast a surprised look at Derrick.

“Why? You don’t like it? I remember you like Coq Au Vin,” Derrick said confidently.

Puzzled, Tiffany asked, “How did you know that my favorite is Coq Au Vin?”

“When there’s a will, there’s a way,” Derrick replied.

She could not help but feel her heart soften as the man’s words made her heart ripple.

I acknowledged Derrick as a very outstanding person. His face is perfectly chiseled and his gestures are always reminded her of the elegance of a prince. He’s a ten out of ten. How can I not be moved when such a rare gem goes the extra mile to get to know me?

I’m a best-selling author who’s written a plethora of novels, from romance, fiction, to horror. Yet, I’m never in any relationship now and neither have I had many boyfriends in real life. All of my past love stories ended in tragedies, either I dumped the person for being insincere or that I was dumped for not being gentle.

I have mixed feelings about Derrick. His actions touched my heart, but I am also confused and fearful. It is the feeling of a poor person being blessed with a million in wealth out of the blue. First, the person is stunned. Then, he feels troubled for not knowing how to spend it or worried that the money might just disappear into thin air.

Anxieties crept up in her, causing her to feel uneasy. However, she had nothing to begin with. Therefore, she was not afraid of losing anything.

Amelia’s lips curled upward. “Wow, it seems to me that Derrick, the big boss, is putting in a lot of effort to learn about the best-selling author, Tiff.”

Keeping silent, Derrick continued serving Tiffany more food.

Tiffany glanced at Amelia. “Babe, go ahead and stuff yourself, or Sweetheart is going to start a protest.”

Amelia obliged. “Mmm… the food tastes so good today. I wonder if it’s because we have a real looker dining with us.”

Tiffany retorted, “Babe, don’t forget your status as a married woman. It doesn’t matter if he is handsome or not, it’s got nothing to do with you. Cast your dirty thoughts away and focus on the meal.”
