Chapter 810

"How long do we need to put on this show?" Stephanie asked, unable to tolerate it anymore.

She felt terrible about her promise to perform an act with Derrick.She was not a good liar in the first

place, but she had to deal with those who came to visit Derrick with ulterior motives from time to time.

She had to watch their fake concern and listen to all those exaggerated compliments when they were

here.

She had never gone through this, but while Derrick was "ill and in the hospital," she saw many things

she had never seen before.

Initially, they would test the waters with caution, which turned into indifference gradually.

Now, even her own niece was coming to seize power.

"Joseph came over yesterday, didn’t he?" Derrick asked lightly, looking out the window.

At the time, he was sleeping, but he vaguely heard voices outside the door.

Stephanie probably stopped them at his door.

Stephanie nodded.

"Yeah.I told him you’re resting after getting a shot, and you'd be asleep for a while, so he should return

home first."

"This father-daughter duo each has their own plans!" he exclaimed emotionally, a faint smile hanging

on his lips.

"Is Joseph really planning to hand over all the assets to that illegitimate son of his?"

Stephanie sighed.

"El had been helping him so much over the years.If he did that, it would really hurt her."

"Do you think that sister-in-law of mine is someone so docile?"

Derrick turned around to face Stephanie.

There was a cold smile on his face.

The beam of sunlight from outside was shining on him, but the curtains covered half of the light.

Even though he was hiding here to strategize and keep control of the situation, he made significant

sacrifices.

For instance, it had been some time since he could go outside and enjoy the fresh air and sun.

Even if he were to do that in the room, he would have had to hide behind the curtains to avoid getting

caught by the paparazzi, who might be hiding in the dark.

"You mean to say El is also..."

Stephanie was astonished. She saw a big difference between people now and then.

Everything going on was constantly overturning her understanding of certain matters.

"No, El is the same as I am, and she had never asked about the company’s matters.If she hadn't

helped me manage everything at home all these years, I wouldn’t have..."

Derrick trailed off before he continued, "Why do you think she managed the family for so many years?

She has been the one taking care of all the internal affairs of the Tanner family.Think about all the

wives of our relatives.Everyone has a close relationship with her, don’t they? Everything she did would

affect the company to a certain extent, but you had no idea about it, right? Even after having a mistress

for so many years and bringing his illegitimate son back home, Joseph lacks the guts to file for

divorce.Do you know why? "About that..."

Stephanie did not know what to say.She had always been weak, so she had never managed all the

internal affairs, or rather, she could not manage them.

Eloise was an all-arounder, and helped her immensely over the years.

Hence, she was genuinely grateful for Eloise.

However, she did not know that this was such a complicated matter.

"There’s one more thing."

Derrick paused and looked out the window, his gaze intense.

In the distance, it was a vast land of forest.

The trees were green and lush, which was a great sight for the eyes.

"Do you know when Benny first learned about wooden carvings and then got obsessed with them? Do

you remember when it was?"
