Derek didn't believe it. He clearly remembered that the person he found that day was Nova.

Nova and Meredith had been always together for a period of time, and perhaps Meredith learned about it at that time.

"Meredith, don't lie. The person I found the other day was Nova. No matter what identity information she left or what she said later, there was no doubt that the person was Nova."

"If you don't want to take this child away, you don't have to. Leave him here and I will find a good family for him. After he is born, I will send him away. You don't have to say anything more.”

Derek did not believe what Meredith had said because the evidence was very clear. And he could only think that Meredith lied to save the child.

This made his already troubled mood even more depressed

"Why you don't believe me?" Meredith didn't expect this to happen. "Otherwise, you can call Nova and ask her what had happened on earth.”

Derek's stubbornness hurt Meredith so much. He even didn't believe that her child was his. When had she lied about this kind of thing?

Seeing her stubbornness, Derek thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll do as you say.”

It was just a phone call, and it wasn't difficult.

Now that Nova was receiving treatment abroad, Derek quickly called her family.

This was the first time Derek had called her for so long and Nova felt a little more excited.

These days, she had been persevering in her recovery. Because Derek had hired a top team in the field of sports rehabilitation to treat her, her legs had obviously improved. After another period of treatment, she would probably be able to return to normal.

Although she still couldn't run or jump, but it would be much better than sitting in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.

"Nova, I have something to ask you." Without any small talk, Derek asked bluntly, "What exactly happened in the hotel?"

Nova's heart trembled. She thought that incident had been sealed up and would never be mentioned by anybody. At present, she couldn't lose the treatment provided by Derek. She didn't want the rest of her life to be ruined by her disabled legs. Besides, if it weren't for Meredith, she wouldn't have been so pitiful.

So Nova answered confidently, "Mr. Xavier, we've already confirmed that matter countless times. The clothes left that day and the work card left behind were all mine. Even if you don't believe me or doubt anything, you can check the surveillance as well.”

Nova said with a sneer in her heart. She knew clearly the rules of the MS Hotel. The surveillance there was impossible for outsiders to see. Even if they wanted to, they could only see it for the last three months.

It had been nearly five months since that incident happened, and Derek had no evidence even if he doubted her and wanted to check. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Meredith didn't expect Nova to make up such a story. Nova knew exactly what happened that day. "Nova, how could you..."

"Meredith is there too... Mr. Xavier, that incident was an accident. I once told Meredith that because we were very close at the time, and you know it clearly... Is there anything else happening now?" Nova pretended to be confused even though she knew exactly what happened in her heart. So, it was Meredith who wanted to tell the truth?

She couldn't let Meredith tell the truth. If Derek knew it was Meredith that day, he would definitely fall out with her. And then her previous efforts would be in vain.

Nova's words made Derek's face even gloomier. After hanging up, the man glanced at Meredith. "So, what else do you want to say? She even dares to let people check the surveillance cameras. If she's lying, how can she be so bold?"

Meredith's eyes flickered. She didn't know why Nova dared to say that. Could it be that the hotel indeed didn't have surveillance videos or there were some other reasons?

In short, Derek's expression chilled her heart completely.

At the very least, she never thought that the man's reaction would make her so bitterly disappointed after she told the truth.

Derek looked at Meredith's embarrassed face and thought that she was guilty because her lie had been exposed. He stood up and said, "This is settled. I will arrange everything for the baby after his birth. You don't have to worry about him, but that's all!"

Word by word, Derek declared the future of the child.

He, Derek, would never raise the son of another man. This child was a scourge. It was out of his great humanity and duty to arrange a good place for the child to grow up.

"No... No!" Meredith covered her belly with her hands and felt a faint movement. This was their child. How could she let their child be sent away for no reason?

Did Derek want the child to be separated from his natural parents at birth? It was too cruel.

"This is my child. Don't you believe it's yours? Well, I'll raise this child by myself. I don't need you!" Meredith's stubbornness was brought up by her maternal instinct. She looked into Derek's gloomy eyes and spoke in an unyielding tone.

What's more, as long as the baby was born, a paternity test would reveal the truth. But if Derek sent the baby out, then everything would be unpredictable. Who knew whether the child would be directly killed or...

She would never let him do that!

Derek was killing his own flesh and blood!

Seeing the stubbornness in Meredith's eyes, Derek stood up and approached her step by step. The height advantage, which was because he was taller than Meredith by a head, was fully revealed at this moment.

Meredith was shrouded in the shadow of Derek. She could not help but step back, but she had no intention of compromise.

"Meredith, I'm not joking. You have to do this. You have to listen to me about the child.”

Derek was angered by her stubbornness. She cared so much about this child whose biological father was unknown and she even wanted to go against him?

"No, no, I can't let you do that." Meredith refused decisively. Derek looked at her and laughed in extreme anger.

"Just for this bastard? What kind of spell did this child's father put on you to make you so determined? Meredith, my patience is limited.”

In Derek's eyes, the more Meredith cared about the child, the more she loved the father of this child who he didn't know at all.

At that time, would she still want to take the child away and elope with the wild man under his nose?

"Derek, please believe me... Child, child..."

Meredith explained in vain, but there was clearly no trust in Derek's eyes, only anger. She simply did not know what to do.

"Listen, I'm not forcing you to abort the child, but it's impossible if you want to keep the child by your side. I'll give you some time to think about it. I hope you won't disappoint me."
