Chapter 416 Gone Too Far

“You can go keep Tony company in the bedroom if you’d like. He misses you so much that he has been throwing tantrums throughout the past few days. You should go spend some time with him,” Amelia suggested.

Kurt nodded. “All right, I’ll head upstairs, then.”

Amelia whipped out her phone after Kurt went upstairs. She was planning on calling Tiffany to ask how things were going over at the Hissons, but stopped herself as she didn’t want to risk interrupting her conversation with the elders.

Meanwhile, Tiffany’s heart was racing from the stress as she looked at the huge group of people before her. All of Derrick’s relatives, both paternal and maternal, were gathered around in the living room. Tiffany did not expect Derrick to have that many relatives. She had only seen family gatherings of such a scale in movies.

The fact that everyone was staring intensely at her only made her even more stressed than she already was. Even the most confident of individuals would probably get chills if they were being watched by that many people like a circus animal.

“Why do you have so many relatives?” she whispered while tugging on Derrick’s sleeve.

“The ones over here are my uncles and cousins. Those over there are just distant relatives. I didn’t think my mom would deliberately invite this many people. Don’t worry; I’m here with you,” Derrick replied softly.

Mom must’ve invited everyone in order to intimidate Tiffany and scare her off. I can’t believe she’d do something so childish! Huh… I should’ve sorted things out with my family before bringing Tiffany over…

“I need to use the bathroom, Derrick,” Tiffany whispered. She didn’t eat much earlier, but she drank a lot of water out of nervousness, so she really needed to pee very badly.

 

Derrick took Tiffany’s hand and stood in front of his relatives who were still staring at them. “I need to use the bathroom, so I’ll excuse myself for a bit. In the meantime, why don’t we all take a short break? You guys can play cards or just chit-chat for a bit if you’re bored,” he said with a smile.

Kate saw Derrick holding Tiffany’s hand and said, “You can go use the bathroom if you want, but Tiffany stays. I want to talk to my future daughter-in-law a little bit more so I can get to know her better. You don’t have to be so protective toward her, you know?”
