Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 451:

Therefore, after Derek finished work and arrived home, he began urging Kathy to leave.

Kathy, her pregnancy barely noticeable, was surrounded by a disarray of clothes, her eyes and nose red from crying.

“Derek, please don’t kick me out. I don’t want to go back home.”

“Humph, Mom and Grandma are expecting you. What’s the point of you staying here? Just go. I can’t stand looking at you anymore!”

Kathy wept bitterly, but Derek remained unmoved. In his eyes, Kathy was not as important as his company.

“Derek, remember Kathy is pregnant. Be gentle with her.”

When Derek reached down to pull Kathy up from the ground, Madeline quickly intervened, helping Kathy to her feet. Their relationship had grown stronger after their recent heart-to-heart conversation.

Seeing Kathy treated so harshly while pregnant, Madeline felt a surge of empathy. She worried about whether Derek would treat her the same way if she ever became less useful to him.

“Derek, please, just let me stay. I really don’t want to go back.”

“Fine, stay then. But when we’re all out on the street, don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
