The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171: Butt Padding

As always, Melissa tried to defend Lola and downplay it. However, Derek was not buying it anymore. It had always been like this. Lola would bully Melissa, and Melissa would still protect her. Derek was so fed up that he had begun to loathe Lola’s deceitful ways.

After all, even when he would witness Lola hurting Melissa, Lola would always deny it. It was how his friendship with Lola slowly crumbled because of Lola’s "attitude" toward poor Melissa.

Derek thought Lola had finally stopped tormenting Melissa, but he was wrong. Because until now, Lola could still look for ways to torment her half-sister.

"Melissa." Derek clutched her hand on the table, looking her in the eye sincerely. "Don’t worry about this injustice. She’ll hear from me this time."

"Derek..."

He shook his head, cutting her off. "I can’t let her do this over and over. The reason she’s doing this is that you’re letting her. I’m not just going to sit around while Lola bullies my fiancé."

Her eyes softened, looking at Derek with conflict, and feeling touched. But deep in her heart, she was sneering.

"For now, enjoy our meal, alright?" he hummed gently, looking at her with pity. "As long as I’m with you, I’ll protect you, Melissa."

"Derek," she blushed, pursing her lips. "Thank you. I feel reassured having you by my side."

He smirked. "Of course. I am, after all, Derek Lancaster."

Melissa and Derek enjoyed their early dinner before Derek finally dropped her home. It had been a while since the two of them went on a date, and in a way, Derek felt slightly guilty.

He had been so busy with company affairs that he didn’t realize Lola was on the move again.

"I knew it!" he hissed, thinking about everything that Melissa had told him. "That Lola is scheming something again while I wasn’t looking."

He clicked his tongue irritably, driving himself to where he knew Lola was staying. Melissa didn’t know her address, but thankfully, he had gotten wind of where that woman was hiding and plotting her poisons when he was at the chairman’s residence, as the chairman had wanted to send her some food.

Soon, Derek arrived at a high-rise condominium building. Stepping out of the car, he stood before it and hissed. He knew this place, of course. It was one of the most exclusive buildings in King’s City, where only the rich could afford.

"Did she ask Grandpa to let her stay in here?" he grumbled. "That woman—I knew it when I heard that she’s staying in this place. I’m sure she asked Grandpa to buy her a place here. Otherwise, how would she be able to afford to be in this place?"

Bitterness filled his heart at the thought. After all, Derek was well aware of how Lola was exploiting his grandfather’s affection for her. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"I really hate her guts," he hissed. "Just because Grandpa likes her, even Travis favors her."

But that wasn’t what he came here for.

Derek clicked his tongue and shook his head in disgust. With that, he walked inside with only one mission: to scold Lola and make her fix the problem she had caused for Melissa. If not, then make her apologize or regret it.

But just as Derek got inside the building, he caught two children running in his direction.

"Chacha!" Second yelled as his twin sister ran ahead of him.
