Chapter 710 A Complicated Marriage

 

Amelia picked Tiffany up as soon as the latter arrived in Saspiuburg. She immediately spotted the bruise on Tiffany’s face, which was pretty hard to miss.

 

“How did you get that bruise, Tiff?” Amelia scrutinized her with a frown.

“I accidentally bumped my eye against the edge of a table. It’s no big deal,” answered Tiffany tersely, obviously having no intention to discuss the matter further, especially not in front of Derrick.

Sensing that, Amelia didn’t press the matter either.

 

When they arrived at the hospital, Tiffany handed the bouquet of flowers she brought with her to Eleanor. “Mrs. Hutton, I heard from Amelia that you’re not well, so Derrick and I came over to visit. How are you feeling today?”

Lying on the hospital bed, Eleanor looked rather pale and sickly, but she appeared to be in good spirits.

“Thank you for visiting, Tiffany. I’m glad to see you both, but why are you still standing? Go on and grab a chair!”

 
 
 
 
 
 

With that, Tiffany and Derrick sat down and ended up chatting with Eleanor for almost an hour before bidding goodbye.

As they were leaving, Amelia got going as well. “Mom, I’m bringing them to check in at their hotel. Derrick will be meeting with his business partners here in Saspiuberg, so they may be staying for about three days.”

“Sure, go ahead. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine here with your dad taking care of me.”

 

Amelia nodded and left.

As soon as they arrived at the hotel, Tiffany turned to Derrick, urging, “Don’t you have appointments with your clients today? You should get on with them. I’m going to hang out with Amelia for a while.”
