Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 806 Meeting Rory Again

At the movie press conference where Derrick was the producer, Kate brought Crystal to the event. When Derrick saw the duo, an impatient glint flashed in his eyes. Holding his hand, Tiffany shook her head at him.

Derrick gripped her hand and told her guiltily, “I’m sorry, Tiff.” At that, Tiffany was amused and asked, “Did you do something that you need to say sorry for?”

Derrick was stunned for a moment, gazing at Tiffany more affectionately. Then, he reached out his hand to caress her cheek and planted a kiss on her nose. “Thank you for understanding. I’m so lucky to be able to marry you.”

Tiffany smiled plainly in response, but a gloomy look flashed across her eyes. Kate did not even bother hiding her annoyance for Tiffany. To outsiders, Crystal seemed more like her daughter-in-law than Tiffany was, placing the latter in an awkward place. Although she was Derrick’s wife, she did not get the respect she deserved from the Hissons. When Derrick was not at home, some housekeepers even deliberately ignored her.

After Tiffany married into the Hisson family, she faced restrictions in whatever she did. In comparison, her life before marriage was way more interesting.

Without a doubt, she had sacrificed a lot for this marriage.

Kate led Crystal over and said, “Derrick, I wish for nothing but success for your movie. I saw all the achievements you made for yourself along the way, and I’m proud of you.”

Crystal also passed him a gift and smiled politely. “Derrick, I hope your second movie will be successful. You’re one of the most successful businessmen I saw jumping from the publishing industry to the entertainment industry. I’m very proud of you. Once you take over Hisson Group, I’m sure your career will prosper even more.”

Derrick took over the gifts and exchanged a few words of pleasantries before making an excuse, leading Tiffany away.

Seeing that, Crystal did not get angry. After all, her hastiness was the reason to blame for missing her chance with Derrick. As such, she was willing to wait now. She had devised many plans—even driving Tiffany’s brother into a corner—just to make Kate hate Tiffany more. As her plan was bound to succeed, she would not give up halfway on something she had poured so much effort into.

Fearing Crystal would get angry, Kate patted her hand. “Crystal, be patient. Once the timing is right, we can roll out our plan.”

Crystal shook her head and smiled sweetly. “I’m fine. I’ve been enduring for so many years, anyway. I can wait for a little longer.”

This made Kate appreciate Crystal’s calm demeanor. “A woman like you suits Derrick more. You’re calm and able to help him if anything arises. Unlike Tiffany, who isn’t considerate of Derrick and only knows how to throw tantrums. She’s so petty! I don’t know what Derrick likes about her to give up on such a good woman like you,” Kate distorted the truth while furrowing her eyebrows.

Crystal comforted, “If men didn’t date a few childish women before a mature one, how would they know what’s good for them? I’m sure after Tiffany, Derrick would know the best person for him is me.”

Kate laughed. “You’re right for thinking that way.”

While the duo was chatting happily, Derrick and Tiffany went to greet Amelia and her family, who were also invited.

A glint flashed across Amelia’s eyes when she caught sight of Kate standing together with Crystal. However, as it was the movie’s press conference, the leads were currently undergoing final preparation to go on stage. Although Derrick did not need to do so as the producer, he needed to greet all the guests invited. After all, he invested a huge amount of money into this movie.

“Derrick, I hope your second movie will be a hit, and that you’ll become a giant in the publishing industry and the entertainment industry.” Amelia gave her blessing and passed him the gift she prepared.

Derrick accepted the gift and replied, “Thank you. I’m thankful that both you and Mr. Clinton can make time to come over.”

Amelia glanced at Tiffany and implied something through her words. “As long as you treat Tiffany well, I don’t mind letting Oscar invest in Kany Production Company. She’s my best friend, so anything that happens to her affects me as well. I’m willing to do anything to ensure her happiness as long as she brings it up.”
