Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 595 Did She Do It

In the house, Tiffany struggled out of Derrick’s embrace. Folding her arms across her chest, she asked, “Derrick, what does she mean? Did all the investors for the movie adaptation of my novel pull out? Why? I thought everything was going on smoothly.”

Tiffany cared more than anyone else about the production of the movie that was adapted from her novel. She would not allow anyone to delay her work as she regarded her work as her children.

Tiffany was very sure that Oscar would agree to help her if she asked Amelia. He would definitely be willing to invest in her movie. In addition, with the Clintons’ connections, many investors would also rush to invest in her work, but nevertheless, Tiffany still wanted to know the reason why the investors changed their minds all of a sudden. Is it because my novel isn’t good enough or is something pulling a trick behind the scenes?

Tiffany did not want anyone to belittle her work.

Derrick replied, “I will resolve this issue. Don’t worry about it.”

“I just want to know the reason. Why did they pull out?” Tiffany cast him an intent glance and said.

Derrick pursed his lips, and a conflicted look flitted across his face. When Tiffany saw his expression, a bitter smile hung on her lips. She finally understood what happened.

“Did Old Mrs. Hisson pressure the investors to pull out?” Tiffany asked softly.

“Tiff.” Derrick was put in a tough spot.

However, Tiffany looked at him and shrugged. “I’m sorry, I just want to know if Old Mrs. Hisson was behind this.”

It was then Derrick finally nodded, confirming her suspicions.

Tiffany regained her composure and smiled. “Old Mrs. Hisson must dislike me a lot. She even wants to destroy my work.”

Derrick raised his hand, wanting to touch her face, but his hand stopped in mid-air.

“I’m sorry. I will try to resolve this as soon as possible.”

Tiffany smiled. “It’s all right. Earlier on, Amelia asked me if I needed her help in making the movie, and I declined her offer. I can always ask her again. I’m sure she’ll be more than willing to help. If Oscar steps in, I’m sure the other investors will also be willing to pump in their money for this production. I just want Old Mrs. Hisson to know that even though my family background and education are not the best, I am still worthy of your love. I am Oscar’s godsister and Amelia’s best friend. I want the Hissons to know that I am good enough for you.”

Derrick’s eyes were filled with sympathy for her.

“Tiff, I’m so sorry. Two years ago, I made a promise to protect you. But in the end, you still got hurt,” he said softly.

“My mentality is extremely strong. How can I be hurt so easily? I still want to marry you and have your family accept me. How can I be defeated by this small setback? If I crumble so easily, I am really not worthy of your love,” Tiffany declared confidently. The more problems she encountered, the stronger she became.

Perhaps if no one provoked her, Tiffany would carry on with life as it was. But now that someone had gotten under her skin, she vowed to get stronger as she would never admit defeat.
