Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 666 Protected By The Boss

Crystal and her cousin were sent straight back to Saspiuburg. Initially, the Halliwells did nothing, for they knew that they were in the wrong. However, when they heard that Crystal’s cousin had been castrated, they instantly turned livid. In no time, Crystal’s grandparents took a flight to Tayhaven and went to the Hisson residence to demand an answer from Derrick.

Unfortunately for them, Terrence was out to meet his friends while Kate and Finnick were overseas for a research conference. Even if Crystal’s grandparents wanted to bring justice to their grandson, they would first need to meet the Hissons in person. Hence, they rushed to Derrick’s office in rage.

When Derrick heard that the two of them had come, he arched a brow and asked his secretary to invite the two to his office.

Once the two were in the office, Derrick asked his secretary to prepare some snacks and tea for them as a gesture of courtesy toward his elders.

Some of Reuben Halliway’s anger faded away when he saw Derrick being so respectful toward them, but the very thought of his grandson’s current state made his fury return.

“Derrick, please give me an answer as to why you’ve done that to my grandson!” Reuben growled as he glared at Derrick. The flame of rage burned brightly in his eyes despite his blurry sight.

Nevertheless, Derrick was not afraid of the elderly man at all. He solemnly said, “Mr. Reuben, I think you’d get a quicker answer if you ask your grandson and granddaughter about this instead. Your grandson tried to sexually assault my girlfriend. If not for my friend’s early discovery, he would have gotten his way. I don’t know why he ended up in this way, but if I were there, I would have beaten him to within an inch of his life. My girlfriend is now traumatized because of him. I’m already being courteous to the Halliwell family by not having sent him straight to the police. While you’ve come all the way here for an answer, I was just thinking of coming to you for justice too.”

Reuben’s expression darkened before his face paled. Derrick’s explanation was completely unlike what Crystal and his foolish grandson had told him.

As his lips trembled, he asked, “Derrick, are you telling me the truth?”

“Old Mr. Halliwell, if you don’t believe me, I can show you the hotel’s surveillance footage. The footage shows how your grandson stalked my girlfriend into the washroom. His actions were nothing but perverse. If I were to send the footage to the police, I think the police would have enough evidence to charge your son,” Derrick remarked.

Reuben’s face turned bright red, and he slammed the cane he had in his hand onto the ground before snarling, “This b*stard! He has brought shame to the family! He could have had any woman he wanted, but he just had to forcibly take someone!”

On the other hand, Crystal’s grandmother, Dorothy, was a woman who doted on her grandson a lot.

As she consoled Reuben, she looked at Derrick grimly. “Derrick, in a way, I’ve watched over you since you were young. I rarely come to Tayhaven nowadays, but you’re becoming increasingly outstanding. You’re basically a copy of your mother. I thought you were a good man, but I never expected that you’d do something drastic like this to my grandson. Perhaps you should be giving me an answer. You can always get another girlfriend if you lose this one, but I won’t be able to have any great-grandchildren now that you’ve done that to my grandson.”

Derrick sneered at her words.

“Old Mrs. Halliwell, as far as I remember, you’ve always been an intelligent, elegant, generous, and caring elder of mine. I never thought that you would say something like this today. I don’t know what happened to your grandson for him to turn out in this way, but the way you’re unreasonably spoiling him is simply disappointing,” Derrick ruthlessly responded.

Having been mocked, Dorothy grimaced in response.

“Derrick, are you going to make the Halliwell family your enemy for a woman?”

At her words, Derrick’s anger morphed into incredulous laughter.

“What are you laughing at?”

“Old Mrs. Halliwell, I’ve always thought of you as someone wise, but as it turns out, you’re just like everyone else. If I can’t even protect my woman, I think I’m not fit to be a man. The lesson I taught him is considered a light one.” Derrick then stood up, a sign of him asking them to leave. “Old Mr. Halliwell, Old Mrs. Halliwell, please leave. I still have work to attend to.”
