Parker was relieved to see that Meredith was not angry at his abruptness.

It seemed that Meredith still regarded him as a friend, which gave him more hope.

"Is that so..." Meredith didn't think much about it. "It was just an accident. I... I know that he and I are not from the same world. The relationship isn't really going anywhere."

Meredith said. The sweet milk in her mouth tasted somewhat bitter. But this was reality. Even if she didn't want to admit it, she could only accept it.

"Then your child..." Parker hesitated.

Meredith didn't answer. She admitted it without saying anything.

Parker understood everything now. He suddenly felt a surge of jealousy towards Derek.

Parker was also a descendant of the Xaviers. However, Derek was the rightful heir to the Xaviers. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, while Parker was a bastard who had been despised by everyone. Parker lost his mother when he was a child and he worked his way up with sweat and blood.

Now, they had fallen in love with the same woman accidentally.

He had to admit that this might be fate. But this time, Parker did not want to accept his fate. In the past, he was weak. He could only watch his mother die in front of him. Now he would not be like that.

This time, he had to control everything.

Their conversation became a little awkward when they mentioned Derek. Parker said something about his experience abroad in time, and Meredith also cooperated and skipped over the troubles she did not want to mention.

Derek was a luxury that was beyond her reach. Now that she had woken up, she shouldn't miss him anymore.

After a while, the dishes came up. They were eating together thinking about their own worries. For a moment, there was only the sound of knives and forks colliding.

Parker looked at his watch, as if... Time was going fast.

Sure enough, not long after he thought so, an elegant black Rolls-Royce stopped at the entrance of the restaurant.

Violet calmly got out of the car. This was the restaurant where she enjoyed her afternoon tea and entertained her guests every day. She would appear here at this time every Wednesday.

Everything seemed to be the same today. Violet was about to have the dessert she usually ate delivered. Suddenly, the person sitting near the window caught her attention.

Wasn't... Wasn't that Meredith?

Violet's hand trembled slightly as she looked at the familiar side face. There was a pot of orchids in front of her. She couldn't see clearly, so she could not help but walk a few steps closer.

She was even more surprised by what she saw when she got closer.

There was not only Meredith, but... The person opposite her!

As soon as Parker's face came into her view, surges of emotions arose in Violet's heart.

She remembered this face so clearly that she would not forget it even if it turned into ashes.

Back then, it was this bastard's mother who had somehow bewitched her husband, namely Derek's father, into thinking about divorce and remarriage.

After all, Violet was the eldest daughter of the Garcias, and she had gotten married legally. How could she bear such grievances? In order to vent her anger, she found someone to find the mistress who destroyed her family, publicized her evil deeds one by one, and then kicked her out of J City, making it impossible for her to have a new life.

Even so, Violet did not stop. After she chased the mistress away, her husband got into a car accident when he tried to find his lover back. He died of a failed rescue, and she became a widow at a young age. How could she bear it?

So, Violet kept sending people to harass that woman and destroy her life. Even so, she still lived tenaciously, and in the end, she even gave birth to an illegitimate child.

However, she was unlucky to die in the delivery room. Violet thought that the child would die soon without anyone taking care of him. She did not expect that he would be lucky enough to survive in the orphanage and even be adopted by a kind-hearted person

Violet had visited the child secretly and realized that he looked very much like his mother, that vixen... Violet hated his mother, so she vented her anger on him again. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She repeatedly destroyed the families that had adopted him and made everyone think that he was a shady thug. In the end, as Violet wished, that bastard completely disappeared from her sight. No matter how hard she searched, she could not find him.

Therefore, Violet thought he had died somewhere, but she didn't expect to see him here! Moreover, he was not as poor as she thought. He seemed to be living well!

How did he get to know Meredith?

Violet was thinking fast. The two people she hated the most were together, which alerted her.

So, she didn't go to the private room she usually liked. Instead, she chose a seat not far from them and sat down. She wanted to hear what they were saying.

"Then, when this is over, I will take you out of here."

Parker had already caught a glimpse of Violet from the corner of his eye. His soft eyes became cold for a moment, and a trace of hatred flashed through them, but it quickly dissipated. Meredith did not notice it. She nodded in agreement.

"I think so too."

Their conversation reached Violet's ears, and she could not help but wonder... What was this? What are they going to do before they go abroad?

Could it be... That Meredith approached Derek for another purpose?

After all, she actually had a relationship with this bastard. From their conversation, it could be seen that she was very familiar with him.

Was she pregnant with his baby?

Violet immediately widened her eyes at the thought. If so, everything would make sense.

Meredith knew this bastard. She even had an illicit relationship with him and was pregnant with his baby. Getting close to Derek was just a move. As long as the child was born and Derek accepted it, they would get the Xaviers's assets in their hands...

At the thought of this, Violet suddenly wore a horrible expression.

She didn't expect Meredith to be so bold that she would trick Derek with someone else's child? After thinking about it, Violet no longer wanted to stay here. She had lost all her appetite.

Violet walked out and then she called Derek.

Derek was working at the company. When he heard the ringtone of his phone, he glanced at it. The name on it was not Meredith, but Violet.

This damned woman. Did she really refuse to give in? Did she have to keep that bastard by her side and think about the father all the time?

Derek's heart was gloomy, but he suppressed his emotions and picked up the phone. "Mother, what's wrong? What do you want me to do?"

"Derek, where are you? I have something very important to tell you."
