章 242: You're Hugging Me Too Tight

A man of Derek's status would be unfazed by malicious comments, for he no longer took them seriously.

Whatever Nidia said managed to get to him. "I also have a grandfather. Although he was an ordinary man when he was alive, my grandfather had freedom and dignity till the day he laid to rest. Some people out there are terribly unfortunate, being forced to bow down to their bosses and lose their dignity. They must have hated it, or else they wouldn't have turned out the same as their bosses. They become twisted and abuse their powers to dominate and bully others at all costs... How tragic."

It was obvious who she was referring to as "some people."

As one could have imagined, his past was not all that great.
