Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 836

Jennifer had a disdainful look when she was informed by June that Crystal did not have a miscarriage from the accident. “You can't even do such a small thing. How can you deal with Oscar?” she derided.

June was starting to lose his temper when he heard what Jennifer said. “This is Derrick's matter. Why are you such a busybody? I suggest you behave and don't mess with Tony for now. The people I've sent to monitor them have told me that Oscar has beefed up their security to keep an eye on Tony, and they're all good at fighting. You'll be no match for them,” June warned.

A sense of contempt rose in Jennifer's heart.

“June, you're just trying to shift the blame. You're such a loser. Whatever. You either sneak into the hospital to get rid of the baby in that woman's belly or shut your mouth.” With that, Jennifer hung up on him.

“Jennifer, listen to me—Damn it, how dare you hang up on me?” June smashed his phone on the ground. He was so infuriated that he kicked the man in front of him and cursed, “A bunch of trash! You all couldn't even deal with a woman! I spent so much money to hire all of you for nothing! I'm giving you all another chance. Go to the hospital and get rid of the baby in her belly. You can all get lost if you fail the mission again!”

“Yes, Boss.” With a stern expression, the man turned and left.

That night, a few dark figures sneaked into the hospital and went into the ward when no one was around. Just as they crept toward the bed quietly and wanted to make a move, a sharp scream filled

the air, “Ah! Help! There are thieves in the room!”

The dark figures were stunned. They glanced at the silhouette running out of the ward, exchanged looks, and escaped from the window.

The silhouette soon returned, having brought many people with her. After the lights were switched on, the silhouette's identity was finally revealed.

It was none other than Kate.

The maid, doctors, and nurses following behind Kate scanned the room and didn't see anyone but Crystal, who was lying on the bed. “Mrs. Hisson, where are the thieves?” one of the maids asked.

Kate hurriedly said, “They must've escaped! Call the police now and get someone to surround the hospital! How dare they mess with the grandchild of the Hissons!”

The maid hesitated and asked, “But Mrs. Hisson, other than the doctors and nurses, there are only patients in the hospital. It's such a big building, so it would be impossible to have it surrounded.”

Kate shot the maid a hard glare and demanded, “Call the police now!”

“Yes, Mrs. Hisson. I will call the police now.”

The maid hurriedly took out her phone and called the police. Meanwhile, the doctor advised Kate, “Mrs. Hisson, the patient needs to get a good rest now. We shouldn't disturb her. Since the thieves have escaped, I don't think they will be back anytime soon. The caretaker can stay and look after her, but the

others should leave the room.”

Kate nodded in agreement and asked the other people to leave.

The police officers quickly arrived at the hospital and took their statements. Pressured by the Hissons, they also checked the surveillance footage. However, no suspicious individual could be found in the footage.

“Mrs. Hisson, there's no sign of the suspect. Could it be you saw it wrongly?” one of the police officers asked. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

To that, Kate responded with a sneer, “What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that I'm lying?”

“Mrs. Hisson, please calm down. We'll investigate the matter. However, as the patient did not suffer from any injuries, it is better not to waste police resources.”

Kate's expression darkened when she heard what the police officer said. When she was about to argue further, Derrick rushed over and stopped her.

He politely sent the police officers away, then turned to the doctors and nurses and said, “You guys can leave now. I'm sorry on behalf of my mom for causing you so much trouble.”

The doctors and nurses then took their leave.

Kate grabbed Derrick's hand and said, “Derrick, how could you let them go? The police officers are too much! I called them to catch the thieves, but they suspected I was lying. I want to call the police chief

and tell him about this! How could they be so rude?”

“Mom, are you done with all this ruckus? How long more are you going to stir up trouble because of Crystal?” Derrick asked impatiently.

“Derrick, what are you talking about? I'm angry because I want to protect the baby in Crystal's belly! He's your son!” Kate glowered at Derrick and said while gritting her teeth.

He looked at Kate with mixed feelings and lowered his voice, “Mom, I don't want the child, nor have I ever accepted it. I wish she had had a miscarriage in the accident.”

Kate stared at Derrick in disbelief, as if he was a stranger to her.

“Derrick, what did you just say?” She couldn't believe her ears.

“I said I wish she had had a miscarriage in the accident.”

After a loud smack, Kate looked at her right hand in shock and disbelief. She had just slapped Derrick on his face.

Derrick licked the corner of his lips, which was bleeding slightly, and glared at Kate. He bellowed, “Mom, your selfish decision ruined my happiness! You forced me to accept a child I'm not even anticipating. You know better than anyone else what you've done to me. I'm sure you're happy that Tiffany divorced me, but do you know my heart is bleeding? Are you really my mom? I'm beginning to suspect whether you're even my biological mother. You know what? I hate you. I lost the most important person to me because of your selfishness.”

Derrick wiped his face, then continued, “I came here merely to check if Crystal had died. Please don't blame me for being brutal. I'm just disgusted by both of you.”

Kate stumbled a few steps back and looked at Derrick in devastation.

He didn't even look at her and simply turned around to leave.

“Derrick!” Kate shouted at him in inexplicable panic.

Derrick pretended that he did not hear her.

Kate paced around anxiously and murmured to herself, “No, it's impossible. Derrick doesn't hate me. I'm his mom. How could he hate me? Right, it must be because of Tiffany. I'm going to visit that b*tch tomorrow! How dare she still sow discord between Derrick and me after she's already divorced?

With that, a vicious glint flashed through her eyes.

The following day, Kate asked someone to take good care of Crystal. Then, she deliberately dressed up and headed to the company where Amelia was working.

Although Amelia was somewhat surprised to know that Kate wanted to meet her, she knew that Kate was most likely here because of Tiffany.

“Mrs. Clinton, I'll tell her to leave,” Jolin said.

Amelia pondered for a moment and shook her head. “No, it's fine. I'll go down to meet her.”

Jolin nodded in response.

Amelia then cleaned up her desk before heading downstairs.

When Kate saw Amelia, she took off her sunglasses and went straight to the point. “Amelia, where's Tiffany? I tried to call her, but her number is no longer in service.”

Amelia chuckled upon hearing that. “Mrs. Hisson, Tiffany has nothing to do with you anymore. I don't think I need to tell you her whereabouts,” she said.

Kate folded her arms and threatened, “Amelia, if you don't tell me where Tiffany is, I'll publicize that she came in between the marriage of her ex-husband and his current wife and became the homewrecker.”

Amelia's gaze turned cold instantly as she warned, “Mrs. Hisson, please behave yourself and be a respected elder.”
