Sweet Twins

Chapter 722 Stay Away From Fu Family

It was not hard to understand what Frederic meant, but Nancy felt sorry for the women who had been persecuted. She hated that Derrick was ruthless enough to let it happen, and she hated it more that he still wanted to escape after the bad things he had done.

"Mr. Fu, I don't think Captain Colten will take Derrick away without any evidence. You are a reasonable person, and you often teach the children that once a mistake is made, they should correct it. Only in this way can they grow up as good people." After taking a deep breath, Nancy continued, "The fire at the hospital was set by David's people. But what happened in the club was not only done by him alone. If I'm not mistaken, Derrick must have something to do with it!"

In an instant, Frederic's face darkened. "Just because there's an evidence doesn't mean Derrick's the culprit. Nancy, Captain Colten hasn't convicted Derrick yet. Why do you think he is guilty?"

"Mr. Fu, you've misunderstood me. I wouldn't dare convict Derrick. The policemen are still investigating."

What Colten said made Frederic sneer. "Captain Colten, go ahead and take him. If he's proven innocent, do you know the consequences?"

This was a threat, and everyone in the room knew what Frederic could do.

Nodding his head, Colten replied, "Yes, Mr. Fu. We'll investigate it carefully. If there is any misunderstanding, we will give you an explanation!"

"Dad, you can't let him take me away. Nancy, you are such a selfish woman. You are Charles' woman, and yet you are against me. I hate you so much!" The way Derrick glared at Nancy seemed like he could kill her any moment. "Where is Charles? I have something to ask him. You can't listen to this woman. I'm telling you, I didn't ask someone to kidnap her! It was David and Anna who hired people to do it. You can't frame me up!"

"You don't have to be afraid that I will escape. I won't. Derrick, you have made me so miserable. I just want to watch you die. I am not afraid of being locked up for a few years. I didn't kill anyone, and my father didn't kill anyone either. The worst thing that could happen to us is to be locked up for a few years. But your case is different. You have killed several people. If you are convicted, you will be sentenced to death. Derrick, I feel so happy!"

It looked as if Anna had lost her mind. Her hysterical laugh echoed in the room, which gave everyone else goose bumps.

"Ah! My head is aching. What happened? I can't remember anything. Dad, help me!" It was obvious that Anna was no longer afraid of anything, as long she would see Derrick suffer to death. Therefore, his only hope was his father.

In his mind, Frederic was already cursing his son, but he still couldn't let anything bad happen to him. "Captain Colten, he is a madman. If you take him away and something happens to him inside the police station, can you shoulder the responsibility alone?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fu. We can't find any evidence to prove Derrick's mental illness. The law is based on evidence. You need to provide an evidence that he really is mentally ill. Otherwise, the court won't believe it." Standing in front of a powerful man, even Colten couldn't help but feel helpless.

"Nancy, you are a doctor, so you know that he has been insane for so long. You can't take this opportunity to take revenge on him just because we opposed your relationship with Charles before. I always take you as my family and want you to marry Charles, don't I? You should think about it carefully." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Frederic was trying to say, "No matter what, you are Charles' woman, Nancy. Things have changed, and we now agree to your relationship. We still want to hold a wedding for you and him. Stop siding with the police and do something to make Derrick stay."

As smart as she was, Nancy immediately got what Frederic meant.

However, she couldn't do as he said. She would always stand for what was right, no matter how difficult it would be.

"Mr. Fu, Derrick is just pretending to be a madman. Why are you covering up for him? You know he is not insane, right?" What Nancy wanted was justice. There was no way she would cooperate with Frederic regarding this matter.

The more she refused, the angrier Frederic became.

"Nancy, why are you so thoughtless? What nonsense are you talking about?" Just like Frederic, Hardy also knew that Derrick had committed heinous crimes, yet he also didn't want him to be punished.

Looking at the two men who were defending Derrick, Nancy tasted something bitter in her mouth. "Do you think Derrick is really insane? Does he look like one?"

"I'm insane. I don't know where I am now." Acting like he was about to faint, Derrick held his head.

The stupid look on his face amused them. It turned out that people who didn't want to be punished could really do anything just to escape.

"Well, Derrick, stop acting. You're bad at it. I'm sorry, but you really have to come with us." Then Captain Colten waved his hand to signal to his assistant to come over.

"Dad!" As Derrick struggled to get away from the assistant's grip, he kept shouting.

Helpless, Frederic only closed his eyes and sighed.

The time Derrick had to pay for his mistakes came, and there was no escape.

"Let's go, Anna. We need your cooperation too. And, will you also explain to us everything you have done?" Colten asked.

"Well, I'll tell you everything I know." It was hard to say whether Anna regretted or not. The only thing on her mind was that she had to save her father as soon as possible.

The room fell silent after they left.

That was the only time when Frederic finally opened his eyes.

He looked daggers at Nancy.

Nancy already knew what Frederic was about to say, but she didn't even flinch. Instead, she stood in front of him and waited for him to speak.

"Nancy, you are so heartless," said Frederic slowly.

"Mr. Fu, you are wrong. First of all, it was Derrick who committed crimes. I just want to find the real mastermind behind the club's case. I don't see anything wrong with what I'm doing."

"Why are you seeking justice for people you don't even know? You're playing the hero, aren't you?" Frederic sneered.

"I don't want to be a hero!" No matter how intimidating Frederic looked like, Nancy remained fearless.

"Then what do you want to be? Charles' wife?" Frederic looked at her with total contempt.

Nancy didn't say anything.

'What is going to happen to me and Charles?

Can we still be together?

Judging from the expression on Frederic's face and the hatred in his eyes, I guess that it is impossible.'

With a sigh, Hardy told her, "Nancy, what will it do good to you if Derrick gets convicted? How did he offend you?"

"Will I benefit from it? I don't know. All I know is that it will end the suffering of many women." This had always been Nancy's point. To her, it didn't matter who it was, the person who abused women needed to be punished.

"Nancy, it's too early for you to say that." Upon remembering something, Frederic's face turned cold again. "Oh, by the way, stay away from Charles and the children. You are not welcome in Fu family. Don't dream about marrying Charles. As long as I am alive, I won't allow him to marry you."

"You are being ruthless. But alright, I promise to stay away from Fu family!" Nancy had already expected this scene to happen.

"Well, impressive. I hope you can keep your word. Oh, Fu family also runs this hospital. That means you also have to leave this place."
