Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 744 Two Sides

Derrick sat at the side of the bed, wrapping his arms around Tiffany from behind. He then said gently, “Uterine

septum? Don’t be afraid. I’ll have everything at work sorted out and accompany you to the surgery tomorrow. No

matter if you can conceive or not, nothing’s going to change between us. I regret arguing with you yesterday, and

my heart ached too. I’m sorry. Please forgive me for acting rashly, okay?”

Tears welled up in Tiffany’s eyes as she heard that. She turned around and looked into Derrick’s eyes. Pretending to

be nonchalant, she said, “Did you realize your mistake?”

“Yes. When we just got married, I promised you that whether or not we have arguments in the future, we have to

talk things out on the same day. I have to apologize if it’s my mistake, and I have to tell you if you’re the one at

fault. We can never allow the misunderstanding to grow into a bigger problem. I know you feel aggrieved, but

Mom’s not in good health, and Dad always listens to her. If I were to side with you, they would make things more

difficult for you. Thus, I have no choice but to make you put up with them for the time being,” he explained.

His mother had always disliked Tiffany. If he kept defending Tiffany, it would not do any good to the situation but

aggravate the tension between her and Kate. By then, Tiffany’s life would only be tougher. Hence, Derrick could

only do his best to maintain the harmony of the household so that the Hissons could accept Tiffany from the bottom

of their hearts.

A true man would be able to cope with both family and work responsibilities.

It warmed Tiffany’s heart to learn that Derrick had that thought in mind. She thought he had lost interest in her

after a few months into their marriage and that he no longer loved her as much as he used to.

Tiffany raised her hand and hit him. With a tearful voice, she said, “I hated you to the core when you argued with

me yesterday. You even made me go to the hospital alone today. I was wondering if you’re already sick of me and if

I should just divorce you. Fortunately, you did pretty well today. Otherwise, I’ll surely kick you out of the house.”

Derrick caressed her head gently and said in a low voice, “Tiff, I appreciate everything you’ve done for us in this

marriage. Back then, you’ve always been carefree, but now, you’re willing to tolerate my family for my sake even

when they sometimes make things difficult for you. You’ve grown up to be a good wife to me.”

“I’m glad that you know this. Remember everything you’ve said today. If you betray me one day, I’ll first have you

castrated and divorce you after taking most of your assets.”

“I will never let you have the chance to do so.”

The two had cleared the air and reconciled with each other in a timely manner.

The next day, Derrick drove Tiffany to the hospital. Upon knowing it had something to do with the possibility of

whether she would have a grandchild or not, Kate went to the hospital with Finnick.

It was always easier to get things done through connections. As soon as Tiffany arrived at the hospital, James

prepared the ward for her. After that, the doctor performed a checkup on her and scheduled the surgery for the

following afternoon after seeing that she was in great health.

Kate looked for Bridget on purpose and went straight to the point. “Dr. Yeager, I’m Tiffany Winters’ mother-in-law. I

guess you still remember her, right? I heard that she has a uterine septum. Will she be able to get pregnant soon

after undergoing surgery?”

“Mrs. Hisson, don’t worry. I checked on Ms. Winters. Aside from the uterine anomaly, she’s really healthy. She only

needs to take good care of her health and reduce the frequency of staying up late, consuming alcohol, and

smoking, to maintain the quality of her ovum. Since both the husband and wife are in good health, she will get

pregnant naturally. That’s only if you don’t pressure her that much. It’ll be harder to conceive when she’s under too

much stress. You experienced the same before, so I suppose you know what I mean.”

Kate wore a graceful smile. “I know. I’m already sixty years old, so I’ve been a little hasty because I hope to have a

grandchild soon. I’ll try to take things slow in the future. Thank you, Dr. Yeager.”

Shaking her head, Bridget replied, “Don’t mention it. I’m just doing what I should as a doctor.”

“All right. I’ll take my leave first and check on Tiffany to see if she needs anything else.”

After that, Kate and Finnick left the office. Kate then said, “Finnick, let me make myself clear. If that woman can’t

get pregnant, just chase her out right away. I’ll never allow an infertile woman to stay in the family.”

Finnick went along with her wish. “Don’t be angry. Dad will not tolerate her either if she can’t get pregnant. If the

elders find faults in her, she’ll be too embarrassed to stay in the Hisson family and will eventually leave.”

“I’m only afraid that your son will also leave with her.”

“That’s easy. It’s normal for them to be madly in love with each other before they get married, but after some time,

they will certainly have some conflicts, just like us. We used to argue when we were younger, but now we’re closer

to each other as we grow older. We just have to add fuel to the fire when they have conflicts. I can tell Tiffany is a

prideful person. She will naturally get a divorce if there’s a misunderstanding,” Finnick said confidently.

“What kind of misunderstanding?”

“What do women hate the most? Other women might be able to put up with it when their husbands cheat on them,

but I’m sure she won’t. She has such a high ego, after all.”

“You know her pretty well.”

Finnick merely responded with a grin.

“Finnick, you’d better not have interest in your daughter-in-law. Otherwise, I’m going to castrate you. I can’t bear

such humiliation.”

He was nonplussed by his wife’s response.

“Dearest, what are you thinking about? I only observed her because you don’t like her. I’ve been waiting for the

right time to make a fatal move, but you actually made such an absurd remark,” he said.

Kate snorted. “I certainly hope so.”

Finnick shook his head; there was nothing he could do with his wife. He had no choice, though. It seemed like he

had been bewitched by Kate that he would only have his eyes on her for the rest of his life.

After entering the ward, Kate instantly replaced the furious look on her face with a loving expression when she

caught sight of Amelia and Oscar.

“Amelia, Oscar, you two are here. Have a seat. Tiff isn’t suffering from any severe illness. It’s a mere uterine

septum, and she will be fine after the surgery.” She poured some water for everyone and acted so attentive and

caring to Tiffany that no one could tell if there was something amiss.

“Tiff, I went to look for Dr. Yeager just now. She said it’s nothing serious, so you don’t have to stress out so much. I

want a grandchild, but I care about your health more. I’ve already taken you as my own daughter.”

“Thank you, Mom,” Tiffany replied obediently.

Meanwhile, Amelia was observing their interaction at the side. It’s no wonder that Tiffany said she’s no match for

Mrs. Hisson. The latter is good at playing mind games and definitely not someone Tiffany can deal with. Mrs. Hisson

seems like a loving person in front of everyone and only reveals her true colors behind everyone’s back. Tiffany will

definitely be at a disadvantage.

“I told the chef at home to make you some tonics. They will send it over in a while.” Kate’s tone turned gentler.

Tiffany was already used to Kate’s deceitful acts, so she replied calmly, “Thank you, Mom.”

Kate spoke for a bit more before she cast her gaze upon Derrick. “Derrick, take good care of Tiff. Your dad and I

have something to attend to, so we’ll come again tomorrow when it’s time for the surgery.”

“Okay. Bye, Mom and Dad.” Derrick sent them to the door before returning.

Amelia glanced at him and felt relieved to see that he still cared a lot about Tiffany.

Besides, she did not want to make further comments about Derrick, worrying that she might upset him.

“Derrick, take good care of Tiff and comfort her. Having a child is a stage that everyone goes through after getting

married, but you shouldn’t be pressuring her too much.”

“I know.”

“I’m glad to hear that. Well, that’s all I wish to say. I’d be happier than anyone else to see you two live happily.”

Derrick nodded in response.
