The Good Girl's Revenge
Chapter 112

Derek was silent for a moment. When Chloe heard that he did not speak, she felt a little anxious, so she pretended to sneeze.

"Derek, it's much colder here than abroad. I'll wait for you. Cough.”

In the end, Derek could not be that cruel, especially since he did promise Chloe. He called Damian. "Come over here and send Meredith home now."

After that, Derek took a pen and wrote a note saying that he had something urgent to do. He asked Meredith to wait for Damian to pick her up, and then he left.

Meredith finally got away from the proprietress, and came back to find that Derek was no longer there.

She looked around and found the note. Derek had something urgent so he left, and she felt a little lost inexplicably.

It was time for dinner. There were a lot of people in the restaurant. Meredith was dragged to the checkout by the proprietress, waiting for Damian to come over.

"What happened? Your boyfriend left?"

"He... He's not my boyfriend.” Meredith was suddenly discouraged and told her the truth.

Mainly, she didn't want to hear the proprietress talk to her about the skills of how to keep a man. She and Derek were not people in the same world at all. Why did she still do those unnecessary things and then be humiliated by him?

"Haha, that's easy for you to say. But when you were eating, I didn't miss what you looked like. Dare you say that you don't like him at all and don't care about him?"

Meredith was stunned. Just as she was about to deny it, the proprietress shook her head at Meredith. "Don’t deny it. Whatever you say seems to conceal the truth from me."

Meredith simply shut up, but kept thinking about what the proprietress had said.

Her feelings for Derek had always been very complicated, especially after knowing that the child in her womb was his. Meredith always felt a little uncomfortable seeing him.

Meredith had never really been in a relationship. She used to be with Leo, and this relationship was just arranged by their parents. There was no unforgettable feelings that were deeply engraved on their hearts.

Now, when she was suddenly thinking about whether or not she had feelings for a man and what kind of feelings she had, she was at a loss for a moment.

"Look at you, you're an adult, but it seems like you have never been dating, but you don't need to be too nervous. I just saw him, and I think it's not that he doesn't care about you. Looking at his appearance, I think he should have a good family background. He cares about you so he is willing to accompany you to such a place.”

The proprietress looked at Meredith's gloomy face and thought she was unhappy about the man's leaving without saying goodbye. "Even though he left, he didn't forget to tell you, which means that he still cares about your feelings. Since that's the case, why do you need to be afraid of? Just use the methods I just said, I am sure he'll be loyal and obedient to you."

Meredith didn't say anything, but she indeed heard what the proprietress said.

Did Derek... Did he really treat her specially?

Meredith never thought about it. She was worried that if she thought too much, she would flatter and embarrass herself. But now that someone else said so, she started thinking about this again. The two women were discussing how to conquer a man when Damian arrived.

Seeing Meredith, he came over. "Boss asked me to pick you up."

The proprietress nodded. "Look, he has asked someone in special to pick you up. Normal boyfriends will only ask you to spend some money to take a taxi, you should cherish him.”

Meredith said nothing. After saying goodbye to the proprietress, she walked out with Damian.

"Is Derek busy at work in the company?" Meredith got into the car and couldn't help but ask curiously.

It must have been a serious matter for Derek to leave in such a hurry.

"Well, I don't know."

Damian begged the question. Of course, he knew that Derek didn't return to the company. As for where Derek went, he was just an assistant and could not control that.

"All right.” Meredith nodded. She was still a little worried, wondering that Derek met which kind of serious problem.

Could it be that something happened to the Xaviers?

Without a word, Damian sent Meredith downstairs in her apartment building. "Do you want me to go up with you?"

Because of the kidnapping before, Damian was especially concerned about Meredith's safety.

"It's okay. No need. I can go back by myself. Sorry to trouble you to pick me up tonight. Thanks." Meredith thanked him politely and went up the stairs alone.

Damian watched her return home and saw that the lights in her home were on peacefully. Then he called Derek. "Boss, I've already sent her home.”

Derek was on his way to the airport when he received the news. His originally tense face softened a little.

"Got it."

Derek finally arrived at the airport as the car sped along.

As soon as he stopped the car, he saw Chloe waiting outside. She was only wearing a light windbreaker. Now that the weather in J City was still cold, she was already shivering from the cold. Just to maintain her image, she still stood upright without any indecent behavior.

"Why are you waiting outside? It's so cold.” Derek frowned and looked at Chloe, who was almost trembling with cold.

She could have waited inside for him to call her, so why did she be out and endure the cold wind? "I'm afraid I'll miss you.” Chloe smiled with a pale face and said the simple sentence that had a deeper meaning.

She really didn't want to miss him. Whether it was at the airport or in her future life, Derek was the one she wanted. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Derek was silent for a moment and did not answer. Just when Chloe was a little embarrassed, he took off his coat. "Put it on."

Seeing her shivering from the cold, Derek was afraid that she would fall ill. Even though they were no longer close lovers, they were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. He could not be so cold and indifferent to her.

"Mmm." Chloe was not pretentious. She took Derek's coat and put it on. The faint cologne scent of him and his warmth passed on to her through the coat, making Chloe feel at ease and moved that she had not experienced for a long time.

For a moment, she felt that she indeed gain something after being blown over by the cold wind outside for almost half an hour. As long as it could make Derek feel pitiful for her, it was worth it. "Get in the car.” Derek looked at the time again. It was very late so he needed to send Chloe back as soon as possible.

Chloe did not refuse. At this moment, she suddenly noticed that a camera of a reporter not far away flashed.

Was there a paparazzo?

Chloe was famous abroad and more famous at home. She was known as the pride of J City. She could be called a celebrity. Besides, Derek was the one who picked her up this time. It was not surprising that paparazzi were here.

After a moment of hesitation, she did not remind Derek. Instead, she suddenly stepped forward and took his hand, acting intimately. "Derek, I don't give you any trouble when I come back this time, right?"
