Derek had come to pick his wife up with an electric scooter, but it had run out of battery. In the end, he even wanted to push her home.In the short span of a night, many people learned of this situation. It spread like wildfire and Mrs. Reid's ears were not left out either.She laughed satisfactorily to imagine that both of them would still come begging before her.Brenda sulked, as she thought. 'Why would Derek want to humiliate me''It wasn't bad if she had ordered an Uber, but he acted like he had no discretion at all and came with a scooter.Not just an ordinary one, but one with a worn-out battery.Brenda was infuriated and swore never to believe him again.***Naturally, Derek was also quite aware that he had caused a mess the previous day. Although in his view.‘It would have been an amazing opportunity. Brenda behind him would have hugged him from behind as he rode the scooter, but In the end, he landed himself in a worse instead .’ he thought inwardly.‘Forget it. I made
Peter just couldn't get enough of Derek's jokes. Yet, he leaned to the wall, crossed his fingers and awaited the so-called gift he said to have.He's definitely a loser, why not just give up. Peter told himself.The sight before him was quite amusing. It was as though he were seeing a movie.‘How can there be such a piece of trash in this world? He can’t even give his wife a present without being scolded.’To hasten Derek's fall, he said. "Brenda. I’m not trying to say anything. Although everyone always says that Derek is a piece of trash and is a loser son-in-law, you’re his wife. You can’t think of him that way.”“Derek bought you something out of good intentions. Why can’t you accept it? Come on, Derek. Open it up and let us see what you bought.”Peter had suddenly grown wings and had transformed into a sweet talker all of a sudden. He had even taken the initiative to ‘advise’ Brenda to treat her husband well.Unfortunately, it was clear that his concerns were nothing more than a
Trastar was a garden visited by families to spend moments together, at the same time individuals were known to visit the place to clear their head.The garden was known for its natural healing atmosphere. One of the reasons Derek got to choose the same place.Within ten minutes, a Tesla model X, with the red color zoomed towards Trastar.The front lights shone brightly on Derek's face revealing his enraged countenance, as his eye had turned red, and his hair had fallen a bit above his eyelid.At the same time, the figure and aura of the one who was within the vehicle was enough to haul down the whole of Dominican.Hurriedly, he pulled the door open headed towards his boss who had reached out to him. "Youngmaster, your call was quite alarming! May I know what the problem is?" Gage had told the moment he met with Derek, who's expression was in no way smiling at all. Derek turned totally around. “Gage Ferguson, I expect you to know why I ordered for your presence!"This was the first ti
Derek, together with Brenda, walked past Orange Island gate, and the securities could not help but trail them with their gaze once again. "You know Thomas, I still can't believe the fact that these two have a house here." Cornor said to Thomas immediately the two were out of sight."They could be lowkey millionaires," Thomas responded with a glint of assurance."Wow, if these two can be millionaires, definitely I will be called a millionaire very soon too," Thomas joked in return.While the duo kept walking in silence, Derek kept trying the network for ordering an Uber. He even had to make use of Brenda's, but all the same nothing went through.Suddenly, a grey coloured Corolla, packed side by side with them. The vehicle seemed familiar to both of them. Either ways, a lot of people make use of such vehicle.Without batting an eye, they turned around to leave when a mocking laughter came from behind."Losers! How do you find life under the scorching sun huh! I could say you really fit
Mother's love was one thing Derek craved for since childhood, but fate denied him of it. Even Mrs Reid never showed him concern, as she treated him like an outsider or worse than an outsider would.The only people that showed him pure love was Brenda and Mr Reid, but that of Mr Reid was always cut short by interference of Mrs Reid.How wouldn't he know what the kids needed? Who wouldn't crave for warmth in the innermost part of their heart?Initially, this event had always been a competition for all the prominent corporations and families in the name of charity. The weight of the gifts they present was just to out rate that of one another, but with Derek and Brenda's current actions, putting everyone in a daze, the event seemed to have returned to its original intentions.The children sobbed earnestly on the field.Even after putting on the scarves for some, they refused to let go. Instead, they clutched tight to Brenda and poured out their souls about several experiences which they h
In a short while, chaos broke out in Beula Kindergarten as confusion set in.Countless children dropped the toys in their hands, while others rushed toward Derek's lane with their previous toys still in their hands.They were all headed toward no other place than Derek's lane.Derek did more than drawing bracelets and watches for the children; that would’ve been a really boring exercise.As such, he devised drawing cats on some of the children’s faces, butterflies on others, and tigers according to their favorites.There was absolutely nothing within the children’s imagination that Derek couldn’t draw. All diagrams were fitted well.In two minutes, the jingling sound of a bell came forth to signify nothing but to officially bring the second round to a close. All the children were queued up before Derek's lane, and it was clear who had won.Derek's household had won both rounds of the competition.On plain ground, his household had won the Best Charitable Organization, but all thanks
If he had said nothing, it was clearly written that none of them were willing to stay over. Considering Brenda's condition, it wasn't advisable that she spend the night on the couch either.The moment Derek said these words, everyone stared at him as though he was crazy."Everyone is quite aware that you were the one who landed Mr. Reid in this state, and you’re planning on accompanying him throughout the night? So you could totally finish him off?!"Joel Buffon disagreed and was about to voice his objections when Morphie quickly stepped in. He whispered, “Uncle, just let him do it. Morphie turned to Mrs Reid and whispered further. "It’ll naturally be great if dad recovers; we won’t have to worry about him then. However, it might not be all that bad if something happens to dad either.”“I’m the director now, and I currently have the highest position apart from you, mom. Besides, if something happens to dad when under his care, we can use that as an excuse to put him behind bars.""B
20 MINUTES LATER…All families were back, and so was Brenda who went lurking around the lobby.Unfortunately, visiting hours had yet to begin, and there was no way the nurse was going to let all of them enter the ICU ward at once.To the hospital, it seemed like an irresponsible act toward the patient, but the family members were quite nervous, and couldn't hold back.As Derek walked out with a bowl in his hand, he saw Morphie arguing with a nurse.Seeing Derek walk over, Morphie pointed right at him. “Look over there! You see that piece of trash standing right there!""He was supposed to watch over the patient, but he didn’t! We have reason to suspect that something could’ve happened to our old man. I demand that you let us in. What right do you have to stop us from entering?”Derek took a deep breath and muttered under his breath, “What’s there to see? He’s already well and out of critical condition. I guess he’s already literally sitting upright inside.”Although he said this under
