My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 451

Derek and Shepherd had been hospitalized for further observation. After two days, the doctor saidthat all the index had returned to normal and they could be discharged

"Will there be any sequelae?”

The Shepherd family were still worried. "He still can't remember what happened a while ago. Will ithave any negative effects on his brain?"

The doctor smiled to reassure them. "Come over every week for a checkup. TheCT shows thateverything is normal. Don't worry. It might be intermittent amnesia. Take more time and he willrecover eventually.”

However, the bearded doctor thought for a moment. "The other patient's condition maybe a littlemore complicated.” The doctor meant Derek

"He was not seriously injured... But that night, his inner organs were failing rapidly, but theygradually returned to normal in three hours. We have never seen that situation before.”

The doctors found it weird.

"But there is no need to worry. You can both be discharged today.”

At the mention of Derek, Shepherd's face darkened and he glared at his little brother, Charles. "Doapologize to Derek immediately!"

"Are you going to be the bully of the city to beat him hard like that?" Shepherd changed thehospital gown and looked very well. However, he was mad at Charles and scolded him harshly.Charles immediately retorted, "It was not us.”

Mr. Shepherd also heard about Charles and Patrick dragging Derek to the hospital and frowned."Anyway, you used to be friends. He's going to be discharged today. You should pay him a visit." Healso felt sorry for Derek.

Reluctantly, Charles went upstairs to visit Derek

Unsurprisingly, he met Christina outside the ward.

She would definitely come today since Derek was supposed to be discharged.

She glanced at Charles with a lukewarm attitude and said, "The attending doctor is still giving him afinal examination. We shall wait for a while."

Seeing her attitude, Charles was very unhappy. "Do you really think Patrick and I were lying?"Holding back all his grievances, he roared at her. "Although the damn security camera showed thatno one had ever entered that apartment except us, there's no need for us to lie. Even if you don'tbelieve me, you should believe Patrick. You know his character, and he disdains to lie."

They were wronged but they couldn't prove that.

"Didn't you come to see him yesterday? Didn't you ask him? Did he say it was us?" Charles evensuspected that it might be Derek who had set them up.

"He didn't say it was you,” She added calmly. "He said he didn't know."

Charles was really angry. "Damn it, why didn't he know?"

He was waiting for Derek to help them get off the hook. He should say he didn't know. What onearth does that mean!

The door of Derek's ward opened and the doctors came out.

Christina asked the doctor about his injuries. The middle-aged doctor, who was the leader, looked alittle confused. He shook his head and said vaguely, they were also not very clear.

Charles, on the other hand, didn't care about this. He rushed into the ward angrily to settle thescore with Derek.

"Derek, your apartment is in a mess. You're lying on the floor. What's going on? When Patrick and Ibarged in, you were already unconscious. What actually happened that night? You shall make itclear."

Charles roared so loudly in the ward that Christina immediately ran in. "Charles, be quiet!" She stoodin front of the bed like a nurse.

Charles was furious. "Why do you protect him like this?"

"You're making a scene in the ward. Please go out.” Christina was not asking but commanding."Haha, Christian, you want to be Derek's guardian angel. I hope you should be aware of youridentity, which family you belong to. Besides, he has never been as simple as you think. We knowbetter than you who he is!"

Charles quarrelled with her directly in the ward. "I have reason to suspect that he did it on purpose.You have never seen Derek's dirty tricks.”

Christina was also furious, "Then your big brother also said he didn't remember. Does he have aconspiracy too?"

Charles's face suddenly turned red. "My big brother is the victim."

"Go out. You're not welcome here."

Christian didn't want to play nice. It was not the first time they had quarrelled. But this time she wasso mad that she pushed him out eventually.

Mrs. Shepherd knew her son's bad temper very well, therefore, she followed him. Seeing thatCharles and Christina were in a quarrel, she quickly quickened her pace and added "It is the ward.Both of you keep your voices down.”

"Didn't your father and brother tell you to apologize? What's going on?" Mrs. Shepherd first scoldedher son.

Charles’ face darkened. He was in his thirties. But somehow he was still childish. He stood in front ofthe door and refused to go in. "Christina said that I was not welcome.”

"Just go in and apologize!"

However, Mrs. Shepherd's serious words suddenly made Charles obedient.

When Christina saw Mrs. Shepherd coming personally, she did not dare to argue with Charles again.They lowered their heads at the moment. Charles said reluctantly to Derek, "I'm sorry. I forced youto come to the hospital to confront my brother last time. I hope you can forgive me."

Derek sat on the bed without even looking at him.

Charles was upset.

People like Derek was not reasonable at all. Charles hated his attitude very much.

".. I can't remember." After a while, Derek suddenly spoke.

Hearing this sentence, Mrs. Shepherd stepped forward and asked him kindly, "Derek, you mean, youcan't remember who hit you so badly that day?"

Derek looked up at her, then he looked down at the broken nails on his fingers.

He was brooding.

For the first time, Mrs. Shepherd looked at him so closely. She was simply amazed. The boy wasreally beautiful. His skin was very fair, as he seldom went out. His facial features were very delicate,and his eyebrows and eyes looked like they were painted, but they all show some charming featuresof masculinity. His eyes were especially pretty, blue and clear just like sapphires.

"My son is too impulsive. I'm really sorry about that." Mrs. Shepherd came back to her senses andalso tried to apologise to him for her son.

But Derek still ignored her.

Sitting on the edge, he kepy staring at his fair and slender hands, bending his injured fingers andbroken nails from time to time, and did not respond to Mrs. Shepherd.

Christina smiled at her awkwardly. "Mrs. Shepherd, Derek just glanced at you. What he meant wasthat he didn't mind what Charles did."

Mrs. Shepherd was surprised.

It seemed that only Christina could understand what Derek wanted to say with merely a look. Theygrew up together and they were connected in a way.

It is said that many years ago, General Eisenhower intended to betroth his most cherishablegranddaughter to the silly son of the Fisher family. In his opinion, Derek was definitely a good kid.These two were indeed a good match.

Unfortunately, it was unlucky.

"You and my brother both have forgotten what happened before," Charles was quite upset andfrustrated. He said to Derek awkwardly, "If you remember anything, please tell us..."

Charles didn't know how to talk to him. He did apologize. Therefore, he just left without caringabout any etiquettes.

Mrs. Shepherd smiled awkwardly again for her son's rudeness, "Sorry."

Larry also came over at the moment. He finished the discharge procedures downstairs and intendedto take Derek away.

Christina naturally followed them in the same car. Larry was driving, while Christina and Derek weresitting side by side in the back seat.

There were only three of them in the car. Larry glanced at Derek in the rearview mirror. He waslooking well now and was not as pale as before. The physical wounds on him were nothing. And thething happened last night was so weird that even the doctors didn't have any clues.

In fact, Larry suspected Derek as Charles did. Maybe Derek felt that they had offended him bybreaking into his apartment, so he set them up on purpose.

After all, Larry knew Derek. He was a guy who would achieve his goals in any possible ways.

Derek sat upright in the car. He looked normal. As usual, His features were pretty and his eyes werecold. He just lowered his head and stared at the broken nails.

There were some very vague memories flashing through his mind and that memory brought a senseof pain.

"Eric, Do you really forget everything?"Christina looked at him intently and asked.

Derek turned to her.

Then, Derek whispered her name "Christina..."

His tone showed that he could not help with that. He really didn't know.

Christina looked into his blue eyes and emphasized, "Then if there is anything you could remember,do tell me."

"Okay." Derek nodded like a behaved student.

Larry, who was driving, was now expressionless. Looking at them through the rearview mirror, hehad mixed feelings. After so many years, they were still the same as before. The girl interrogatedhim like a bully, while the other responded obediently.

However, except being with Christina, how could Derek be so gentle and soft? Who beat him sobadly exactly?

Larry frowned. He really suspected Derek. Did he really forget all the things?

Christina's cell phone suddenly rang. "Chris, are you going to Derek's apartment now? How could amarried woman go to a bachelor's apartment?”

It was Charles and he shouted loud deliberately. It was quiet in the car, and Larry heard it clearly.Of course, Charles was on Patrick's side.

He did that on purpose. He thought Derek framed him and he felt uncomfortable with that.Therefore, he made this call.

Larry's face darkened and he roared immediately, "Don’t worry, we're driving to the Hopkins familynow."

Christina scolded Charles in her heart. However, she also felt a little embarrassed. All of a sudden,she hung up the phone. She didn't want to be alienated with Derek.

Although Derek had been staring at his injured fingers and did not look up, he said suddenly,"Christina, I will take care of myself."

The car stopped at the gate of the Hopkins family. Once Christina got off, Larry re-started the carimmediately as if he was mad. Christina looked at the leaving car and stood here daydreaming.

For some reason, she felt sorry for Larry and Derek all of a sudden.

It was as if she had betrayed them.

No matter how hard they want to remain the same, people would still change eventually as theygrew up.
