Chapter 1052 Take Good Care Of Her For Me
“It’s a snake pit with the Turner Group.” Brandon put the document on the table and his eyes hardened like steel.
Derek’s eyes sparkled with curiosity as he asked, “Are the Turners the ones pulling the strings against Jbefore?”
This was Derek’s educated guess. Last time, while they were in danger, he had asked Jabout it. At that time, Jhad told
him that she would reveal all when they were out of danger. He smiled bitterly and thought that perhaps he would never have the
chance to know the truth even though they were both safe and sound now.
“This is between us and the Turners. Stop stressing about it.” Brandon didn’t want to drag Derek into the quagmire.
Derek said arrogantly, “Do I really look like I need to know?”
Then he stormed out of the room. Before opening the door, he couldn’t help but glance back. “I won’t tell a soul. Don’t worry.”
At that moment, Brandon suddenly stopped him. “Your information is a goldmine for us. Nyour price and I’ll have my
assistant transfer the funds to your account.”
Derek sniffed disdainfully and looked back. “Do you think I’m a beggar? I was not in this for the money. That stupid murderer
almost killed me. I can’t just let that go.”
Brandon’s eyes grew darker, a frown marring his face. “Do you needto say something to Janet?” he asked, knowing the

power of his words.
Derek was caught off guard by the question. After a moment of contemplation, he lowered his eyes and said, “Helptake
good care of her. I don’t want to see her get hurt again.”
“She is my wife, and she’s mine to worry about. So just mind your own business,” Brandon replied, with a hint of
possessiveness, marking his territory.
Derek was livid at the response. He glared at Brandon, gnashed his teeth, and spat out, “Then why did you askif I had
something to tell her? You were just messing with me.”
The two men in the room were like oil and water, but the two women outside the room couldn’t stop laughing.

“Is Derek really that clueless?” Gilda grinned from ear to ear as she listened to Jtalking about Derek.
At first, when Jsaw Gilda, she thought she was a shy and quiet woman, but she quickly realized that Gilda was actually a
chatterbox.
She couldn’t understand why such a wonderful girl would want to date a player like Derek.
Jcouldn’t help but ask, “For how long have you known Derek?
You were both models, so you must have been old acquaintances,” she added, trying to make sense of the situation.
But Gilda denied any prior knowledge of Derek with a sly smile. “Derek is a famous model, but I didn’t know him personally
before.
Believe it or not, I have only known him for a week.
Five days ago, there was a sudden thunderstorm in Barnes. Gilda was picking up a friend from the hospital when she saw

Wilder’s car parked outside. She was about to say hello when she overheard Wilder talking to a man with a tall, chiseled figure.
Gilda soon realized it was Derek. He was very gorgeous, particularly with his perfect facial features. He had an infectious,
positive, and attractive vibe that made it hard for women to resist him.
However, Derek did not enter the vehicle with Wilder. Finally, he walked away. He didn’t bring an umbrella, so he got soaked in
the rain.
Gilda happened to have an extra umbrella, and she was a kind-hearted person. She quickly reached Derek out in the storm and
gave him the umbrella.
“So that’s how we first met. Derek seemed dejected at the moment, but as our friendship grew, I learned that he was really a
pretty jovial guy.” Gilda lowered her chin and grinned sheepishly.
Jpieced everything together and realized that Brandon was injured and sent to the hospital on the sday that Gilda met
Derek.
Jwas worried about Brandon at the moment and paid no attention to anybody else around her. Both Derek and she had
close calls that day. They were able to escape a collision because of Derek’s brother, but she didn’t even express gratitude as
she only had eyes for Brandon. At that point, Derek should have been very sad.

In the middle of their conversation, Derek rudely burst out of the room. “It’s tto go, Gilda.”
His demeanor suggested he was fuming.
Japproached him and said, “What happened? Did you have an argument with Brandon inside?”
“Not really. I’m just leaving with my girlfriend.” Derek took a single step before turning around and murmuring to Janet, “Brandon
is a sly one. My best judgment is that he’s just feigning illness because he wants you to nurse him for a few more days. Do not
fall for that!”
Jsighed helplessly and said, “Don’t worry. I understand what has to be done.”
In dismay, Derek cast a gaze in her direction. Jwas so blindly in love! He bade Jfarewell before leaving with Gilda.
