Too Much To Bear My Love

Chapter 835 Attacked

With a scoff, Kate began to behave like an uncivilized shrew. “Look over here, everyone! This woman here is the best friend of Tiffany Winters, who used to be my daughter-in-law. After she divorced my son, she hired someone to hit my future daughter-in-law with a car, and the poor girl was just one-month pregnant! How could someone be so heartless as to lay a hand on a child!”

Amelia grabbed onto Jolin, who was about to stop the commotion. “Let her keep going, Jolin. I want to see just how shameless the lady of the Hisson family can be.”

Jolin nodded and continued to protect the former, who then recorded a video of Kate’s outburst and sent it to Derrick along with a text message: Derrick, your mother is throwing a shameless fit at my workplace. Don’t blame me if I end up humiliating her even though I’m younger.

Derrick’s call came shortly after the message was sent.

Yet, Amelia rejected it and phoned the police instead.

A while later, both the police and Derrick showed up at the same time.

“Mom!” the latter called out sternly.

Two police officers made their way over to Kate. “Ma’am, you’re hindering a company’s operations. Please come to the station with us.”

Kate swiftly evaded the officers’ attempts at holding her before glaring at Amelia, who was currently being shielded by Jolin and Shane. “I’m just here to expose the true colors of this woman and her friend, officers. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong. If you want to arrest someone, you should be arresting that b*tch Tiffany Winters instead! She tried to kill my grandchild!”

“You can report to us if someone really does want to kill your grandchild, ma’am, and we’d be sure to investigate. But for now, we’d appreciate your cooperation. Please follow us.”

Yet, Kate grabbed onto Derrick’s hand and declared haughtily, “I’d like to see any of you try and lay a finger on me.”

The officers tried even harder to apprehend her, only to be stopped by Derrick, who then dialed a number right in front of them. “Hello, Mr. Finnegan. This is Derrick Hisson. There’s been a misunderstanding between your subordinates and my mother, and they’re asking her to drop by the police station.”

After the person over the line had spoken, Derrick passed his phone to one of the officers. “Your chief wants to speak to you.”

The officer took the phone, and his expression took a turn after he listened to what the other person said. “Yes, Chief.”

Then, he hung up and turned to Derrick solemnly. “Sorry about that, Mr. Hisson. We’ll be going now.”

Both officers then said a few words to Amelia before leaving the scene.

“You’ve gone too far, Amelia Winters!” Kate exclaimed while tidying her disheveled outfit.

Amelia’s lips curved upward. “You just put on quite a show for everyone here today. What an eye-opening experience.”

“You!” Kate screamed in exasperation.

“That’s enough, Mom. How much longer are you going to keep this up?” Derrick stepped in.

The older woman could only stare at her son in disbelief.

“Mr. Hisson, please take your mother with you. This is my workplace, and I don’t want anyone mistaking my friend for a vile and heartless woman. She was your wife for about a year, so I’m sure you know what kind of person she is. Your mother claiming that she hired someone to hit Ms. Halliwell with a car is considered slander, and I can certainly file a lawsuit if I were to bother.”

“I’ll take her away right now,” Derrick responded grimly. “I hope you’ll keep this incident a secret from Tiff.”

Amelia shrugged. “Of course. I wouldn’t want her to hear about such outrageous accusations against her.”

The man nodded.

Kate glared at the woman upon hearing that.

Then, she left with a huff, a grave-looking Derrick following closely behind.

“Are you okay, Mrs. Clinton?” asked Jolin.

Amelia nodded before turning to Shane.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Franklin. I’ve caused you some trouble again.”

Shane shook his head. “You can go home and rest if you’re not feeling well,” he replied magnanimously. “You always finish your work ahead of time, so it doesn’t matter if you leave earlier too.”

“It’s okay. I don’t need the day off. Let’s get back to work.”

As the three headed back upstairs, Amelia threw herself back into work for the remainder of the afternoon.
