Derek leaned against the window and looked out. The man's quiet appearance was like a sculpture, too perfect to be real.

"Why are you here?" Meredith patted her chest. She was shocked when she saw someone in her room.

She thought it was a burglar bursting into the house, although she knew that all her belongings adding together were not worth as much as this house.

"To see what on earth you have done." Derek thought about what he had just seen. The man who sent Meredith back was a man he had never seen before. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Even though Meredith could not understand how could Derek checks in on her so directly and justifiably’, it was also difficult for her to resist it.

She simply couldn't understand what Derek wanted to do. No matter what, they were already ex- husband and ex-wife. Why he was always bothering her so much.

"Is that your new man?" Seeing that she was impatient, Derek said unkindly.

Meredith was in a good mood at first, but his words made her angry. "I have told you that I went to my colleagues’ house for dinner. They said it was impolite to let me take a taxi back by myself, so one of my colleagues asked her brother to send me back. Believe it or not."

She doubted what she looked like in Derek's heart. As long as he saw her with a man, he naturally thought that she was having an affair with that man.

She was not an easy girl.

Seeing that Meredith had finished this long sentence in one breath that her face was flushed for breathless, Derek's originally tense expression relaxed a little. "I'm still thinking that no matter how bad your taste is, it will not be so bad.”

When Meredith heard what he said, she felt that Derek was really incorrigible. She rolled her eyes and then went to the refrigerator to get some fruit.

Derek then said slowly, "Which colleague?”

Meredith almost coughed up the strawberries in her mouth. "Nova, the one you specifically asked Damian to hire."

Derek didn't look very well when he heard this name.

This Nova, who didn't work well in the company, was lazy and inactively. If it weren't for her kindness to him and he did give her a promise at that time, Derek would have fired her.

He just didn't expect her to get along well with Meredith.

"Don’t you feel something weird when seeing her?"

Last time, didn't Meredith see her running over to court him? Even so, could they still be friends? Was there no jealousy in Meredith's heart?

"Not." Meredith shook her head. She only regarded Nova as a child who needed help

Derek realized that she didn't take that incident seriously in her mind, and suddenly he was in a bad mood

Glancing at Meredith, who was happily eating the fruit and didn't even look at him, he walked out angrily. "Always eating.”

Then he left.

Meredith watched him leave inexplicably. Why did she provoke him by eating something? She bought it herself.

Did he not want her to get too close to Nova because he was afraid that she would talk too much about their past marriage and ruin their relationship?

Thinking about it, Meredith actually thought it was possible. After all, Nova was personally recruited by Derek breaking the rule and also dared to be close to him in the company. If they didn't have any relationship, how could she have such courage?

Meredith lost his appetite when thinking that way. She threw the fruit in her hand on the table, and started listening to prenatal music.

When Seth returned home, he was in low spirits. Seeing this, Nova quickly asked what happened. Knowing that Meredith was living in that upscale neighborhood, Nova was even envious. In that case, She must make Seth get Meredith more quickly.

"Actually, she's an invisible rich second generation. Didn't you see that she looks a little like that star Ava, and her surname is also Mason? She's the daughter of the Masons. If you can marry her, you will have a smooth journey in the future.”

Nova's random lies actually told the truth. To encourage Seth, she even painfully took out some of the money that Derek gave her. "Brother, chasing a girl costs money. I'll help you. As long as you get her, you won't have to worry about taking back the investment.”

On Monday.

As soon as Meredith went to work and was about to go upstairs, the guard suddenly gave her a bouquet of flowers.

Meredith was a little confused, looking at the bouquet and not knowing what happened.

However, the colleagues who go to work together saw it and heckled, "Oh, you have someone pursuing you!"

"Who is he? What does he look like? Isn't he too mysterious?"

Meredith blushed a little. She was used to being low-profile in the company and suddenly being noticed like this made her feel bad.

Holding the bouquet up to the top floor, Meredith quickly opened the card attached to it. Under such a situation that having a child whose father was unknown in her belly, how could she fall in love with someone?

So, it was better for him to save some money and not wasted his time and energy.

As soon as Derek went up to the top floor, he saw Meredith holding a bouquet of roses and looking down at the card.

The bouquet was so huge that half of Meredith's body was buried in it. Her small fair face was half in the colorful flowers, and her face was purer than the flowers. It reminded him of the saying "the lady is more beautiful than the blossoming flowers."

However, Derek was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery. He walked over with a dark face and only took a look at the gorgeous red roses. "How ugly these flowers are. It is so outmoded to give something like this as the present.”

Meredith looked up and saw Derek's cold expression. "It's not for you."

After all, it was someone else's good intention. Even if he didn't like the roses, there was no need to say so harshly.

"It's on my floor and bothers me. Why can't I comment on it?"

Derek was even more impolite when he saw that she dared to talk back.

Seeing that Meredith was speechless, Derek snorted. "Immediately throw them away. Don't let me see that again.”

"There's no need for that, right?” Meredith looked at the card. There was no signature on it, but only a statement - "I fell in love with you at first sight.”

After all, it was the first time she had received flowers from someone else. Meredith felt guilty to throw them away.

"It's up to me whether it's necessary or not. If I see this bouquet again, I'll throw it myself."

Kept it, and then let it reminded her of its owner?

Derek said that and left. Meredith didn't want to do so, but she couldn't resist Derek's orders. So she could only open the bouquet, give some flowers to her colleagues, and put some into the vase in the company bathroom.

Derek was livid to see her aggrieved look in the office.

It was just a bunch of flowers. What a big deal!

Taking out his cell phone, he called Damian and gave him some instructions.

After a while, Meredith received a huge bouquet that was much bigger than the one just now. Even one person could not hold it, but two people moved it up.

Meredith was completely stunned. When she opened it, she found that 999 perfumed lilies forming a perfect heart.

Derek looked at Meredith's stunning look and smiled.
