Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 693 Go Fishing Together

Upon returning to Tayhaven, Amelia threw herself back into work, while Tiffany was summoned by Kate.

As Tiffany stood still and looked at Kate, who was sitting on the couch, she knew the latter was harboring ill intentions.

“Mom, is there anything you need from me?” Tiffany asked patiently.

Kate threw a bunch of documents in front of Tiffany. “Can you explain this to me? How did your honeymoon with Derrick end up with you going back to your hometown to clear your brother’s debts?”

Tiffany wasn’t surprised that Kate had discovered that they had gone to her hometown instead of Baxrich, for the latter had always resented her. She was just unsure of what sort of terrible consequences awaited her.

“Mom, I’m sorry.” Of all the words available, those were the only ones Tiffany could manage.

Fiddling with her fingers, Kate gave Tiffany a contemptuous look. “Tiffany, all this while, I have resented your family background. If you weren’t Oscar’s god-sister, I would never have agreed to you marrying into this family. Instead of making your in-laws proud like the other daughters-in-law of prominent families, you end up causing plenty of trouble for us. Do you think that Derrick isn’t busy enough? And that you must make his life more difficult than it already is?”

Speechless, Tiffany had nothing to defend herself with.

Since Kate had decided that she was guilty, whatever she said would be useless. In fact, she might end up infuriating the former further.

Kate picked up the ashtray on the table and flung it at Tiffany. With a loud bang, the tray hit the latter’s body and covered her in ash before dropping to the ground.

“Are you mute? Why don’t you say something? Are you trying to challenge me, your mother-in-law?” Kate taunted with a glare.

After squirming her lips, a wry smile emerged on Tiffany’s face.

Raising her head, she answered in defiance, “Mom, I paid off the gambling debt with my own money and didn’t trouble Derrick at all. I’m sure I have not crossed the line by helping my own family that way.”

Given how Kate was becoming increasingly intimidating, Tiffany felt that she needed to stand up for herself. Otherwise, she would end up suffering under the former’s thumb.

“Since you’re now married to Derrick, your assets are his assets too. Therefore, how can you squirrel away money to save that disgraceful family of yours?” Kate mocked Tiffany with a curl of her lips.
