After Hannah left, Brittany turned to Derek. His eyes seemed to be scrutinizing, "About Loraine..."
"I know you have nothing to do with it." Derek replied in a deep voice.
He continued, "I want to apologize for what happened before. I was misled and wrongly thought you were that kind of person, causing you trouble."
Lately, he had reflected a lot and realized he was wrong from the start.
"Let's let bygones be bygones." Brittany said.
In the past, Brittany really didn't like Derek and even wished they had never met.
However, since the kidnapping incident, Derek's behavior was enough to change her mind.
Derek wanted to say something else, but ended up not saying anything.
"What's the deal between you and Hannah?" Brittany asked.
She didn't think Derek was nice to Hannah because of that one night.
"I messed up." Derek said seriously, "And she once saved my grandma. I just wanted to do something to make up for it."
He never disliked Hannah, it was only because Hannah was close with Brittany that he was somewhat resistant. But now he clearly realized that he was the one who was wrong.
"Derek, Hannah might come off as harsh, but she's never really liked anyone." Brittany said seriously, "If you don't like Hannah, don't get close to her anymore, and don't be nice to her under the guise of making up."
Hannah seemed to have gone through a lot, but she was still innocent when it came to emotions.
Brittany didn't want Derek to mislead Hannah, causing her to invest her feelings and then get hurt.
Derek was taken aback, and after a long while said, "I see."
He never thought about whether Hannah would like him, he just felt that he should do something to make up for the mistakes he made.
The door to the break room was pushed open, and Hannah came in. She looked pale, as if she had been hit hard, and didn't even dare to look at Brittany.
"Hannah, what's wrong?" Brittany asked with concern.
Hannah fought back the urge to reveal everything, walked over to Brittany, and then looked at Derek, "Can you give us some room? I have something to say to Bri alone."
She wouldn't have accidentally gotten pregnant, and she wouldn't be in such a predicament!
Hannah tightly held her hand, as if making a huge decision, after a long while, with red eyes, she said, "Since you like him, then you should cherish what you have with him, he... he is sincere to you."
Brittany didn't understand, but was inexplicably moved by her blessings.
Hannah hugged her waist, carefully avoiding her belly.
Hannah’s heart ached, and tears rolled down.
She thought, “I'm sorry, Bri. It's my fault, I was the one who indulged Isaac at the beginning. Now, I don't even have the courage to tell the truth.”
Hannah wiped her tears, forced a smile and said, "You're almost three months pregnant, and you should rest more during this time..."
"Okay."
Outside the door.
Isaac, who had been hiding outside the door, heard their conversation and put on a slight smile.
