Too Much to Bear, My Love Chapter 192

When everyone was gazing at the operating room anxiously, a phone started ringing out of nowhere.

Everyone present turned to the source of the sound, which was coming from Tiffany’s phone. The latter was apparently still in a daze.

When Olivia pointed at her bag, she snapped back to reality and dug her phone out. The name “Mr. Hisson” appeared on her phone’s screen.

Tiffany furrowed her brows instinctively. She had no idea why Derrick would be calling her at this hour. As Amelia was still in the operating room, she rejected the call without hesitation.

Instead of giving up, the man proceeded to call her five times in a row. In the end, Olivia said gently, “Tiffany, why don’t you answer the call? Perhaps it’s something urgent.”

Tiffany gave her an apologetic nod and walked away to a corner to answer the call.

She didn’t hide her displeasure when the call was connected. As such, the person at the other end of the line immediately sensed something was amiss.

“What’s wrong? Did someone bully you?” Derrick asked, his voice deep and charismatic.

Strangely, Tiffany felt her anxiety that she had been bottling up exploding instantly. In a choking voice, she responded, “I’m fine, Mr. Hisson. If it’s nothing important, I need to hang up now.”

“Wait. Where are you now? I’ll go over to you right away. Don’t lie to me. You know I’m capable of tracking you down,” Derrick demanded.

Tiffany had to reveal that she was at the Principal General Hospital.

Derrick didn’t expect to hear that answer from her, but he swiftly regained his composure and answered, “I’ll head over there now. Don’t worry, I’ll be right with you no matter what happened.”

With that, he hung up.

As the screen went dim, Tiffany felt herself loosening. She no longer felt suffocated.

Putting the phone back into her bag, she returned to the operating room. Upon seeing her, Olivia asked, “Who was it? Is it an urgent business?”

Shaking her head, Tiffany responded, “It’s a friend who thought I was at home and wanted to come and visit me. I said I wasn’t home and hung up.”

Olivia nodded and said nothing else.

The air tensed up promptly.

Derrick arrived around forty-five minutes later. When he strode over to Tiffany, it felt like there was a halo above his head, making him the limelight of the crowd.

“Are you hurt?” he came to Tiffany and asked in concern.

Tiffany merely stared at him emotionlessly. She didn’t know he would come this quickly.
