The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 232

Derek reflexively tossed it away. It felt soft. He looked down and realized he'd tossed a piece of bread.

It had landed on the ground and gathered dust.

"Everyone gets one piece of bread. Yours is inedible now."

There were also two bottles of water in the bag. Brittany handed one to Derek, but he refused, rolling his eyes in annoyance. "Did you do that on purpose?"

"You deliberately mentioned my call with William Dillion in front of Zakky. Wasn't that intentional?"

Brittany could hold a grudge. She still remembered that incident after all this time.

Derek gritted his teeth in frustration. "You're not like this in front of Zac, are you?"

She looked sweet and submissive, not nearly as sharp-tongued as she was now.

"He's my husband. Of course, I have to be a bit nicer in front of him." Brittany raised an eyebrow.

Derek was speechless.

He looked at the piece of bread on the ground and felt no hunger. He opened the bottle of water but accidentally pulled at the wound on his back and winced in pain.

Brittany remembered that Derek, coming from a well-to-do family, might be fussy. So she handed him her piece of bread. "Here, take it."

Considering he had saved her, she would give him this bread.

"But what about you?"

Brittany pushed the bread into his chest and picked up the bread from the ground. It was dust-covered, which was a bit off-putting.

Derek's eyes widened.

He couldn't believe that Brittany would actually eat that piece of bread.

Brittany leaned against a wall, carefully peeling off the dusty section, took a bite, and found it tastier than she expected.

Derek, a bit of a clean freak, frowned in disgust. "Stop eating it! It's dirty; it fell on the ground."

"If you don't eat and end up starving to death, I'm not dealing with your corpse."

Brittany ate it with relish. She took a bite of bread and then a sip of water.

Derek didn't expect Brittany to be this tough. He glanced at the bread in his hand, then at the bread Brittany was almost done with. Without a second thought, he split his in half and handed it to her.

"Don't think that by giving me a piece of bread I'll change my opinion about you!"

Brittany didn't hold back, accepting the bread and finishing it off in a few bites. "Why do you hate me?"

She couldn't understand. She never bothered Derek. Why was he always against her?

"You're not good enough for Zac."
