Parker was about to rush out with his phone in his hand. He couldn't help do it. Even if he would offend Derek openly, he couldn't let him take Meredith away again.

He promised to protect the poor girl from being bullied for the rest of her life.

When Jenny saw Parker lose his reason, she rushed up and hugged his waist, "Parker, calm down!" "You can't go. In the current state of the company, everything will collapse if you are not there. The child in Meredith's womb is not yours. Are you going to risk everything you own for someone else's woman and child?"

Parker paused when he heard this. How did Jenny know that the child in Meredith's womb was not his? He remembered that he had never told Jenny anything about Meredith.

When Parker thought that Derek had tracked that location abnormally fast, a bold idea occurred to him. Parker grabbed Jenny's hand to pull her away, and grabbed her by her shoulders.

"Did you say that? Did you contact Derek?"

Jenny didn't intend to keep it a secret for long. With Parker's ability, he would know it sooner or later. Therefore, she was fearless and looked into his eyes, "I did it. I can't watch you do this for her. I can't watch you destroy yourself."

"You..." Parker suddenly didn't know what to say. It could be said that Jenny was his benefactor and the person he trusted most in the world, but she betrayed him like this.

"You betray me?"

"I don't. Parker, I will never betray you. For my sake, please don't go... Don't go..."

It was rare for Jenny to show her fragility. She was really afraid that Parker would do something stupid on impulse, and she would lose him forever.

"Jenny, I'm... disappointed in you." Parker shook off Jenny's hands and said, "I'll get someone to send you abroad.”

Parker no longer looked into Jenny's eyes as he did not want to see the attachment in her eyes to him. Parker didn't have that kind of feeling between a man and a woman for her but only felt grateful to her and respected her.

Now, even if she revealed Meredith's whereabouts and betrayed him, he couldn't do anything to her but only isolated her from himself.

Jenny didn't expect Parker to drive her away so decisively. Was he doing this for the woman who was carrying someone else's child?

She smiled, but her smile was uglier than a cry. There was a flash of determination in her eyes. After Parker pushed her away, she took out a knife from her bosom and laid it upon her neck, “Parker, if you insist on going, kill me first, and step on and over my body."

Parker looked at her in disbelief. Jenny was not joking. Seeing that he did not stop her immediately, she stabbed the knife into her skin and a stream of red blood flowed down, so dazzling.

"Jenny... Do you have to do this?"

Jenny looked at him. She knew well that this would only further alienate him from her, but she... had no choice.

After Meredith hung up the phone, she was so hopeless. She returned the phone to Derek and then said without looking at him, "Let's go. I'll go back with you.”

Meredith's attitude made Derek very unhappy, "How can you treat me so badly?"

"What else do you expect me to do to you? Do you want me to smile brightly at you after you threatened me with my family and friends?” Meredith took a deep breath. She turned around to see Derek.

The love she once had for this man had been spoiled by him gradually. Anyway, she was just a plaything for him.

Derek was upset by her look, and he was not in the mood to pay attention to her, "Anyway, remember that I don't take you back to see you pull a long face. Don't forget your status!"

Hearing his words, Meredith wanted to laugh at herself as she used to be so innocent and naive that she had really thought that Derek loved her for a moment.

Now, the man seemed to be mocking her for being self-sentimental with his explicit words. He asked her to remember her status. Perhaps he was trying to remind her of her status as a plaything and a lover who should be on call at any hour and could be abandoned as his wish.

"Okay, I got it."

Meredith suddenly smiled. Instead of saying anything to upset Derek, she forced a smile and followed Derek into the car.

Derek looked at the smile on her face through the rearview mirror, but he was in a worse mood. Meredith's smile was not sincere at all and her perfunctory expression made him upset.

However, Derek did not want to pester her anymore. He drove her back to where she had been. "You are guarded by the same people. If you don't want to bring them into trouble, you'd better not challenge my patience again.”

Derek left after leaving her there. Although Meredith did not argue with him anymore and remained quiet all the way, he suddenly felt that it was better to let her argue with him than to face such a strange woman. At least, he could understand what this woman was thinking. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Now, Meredith was like a puppet. Although she had a beautiful smile on her face, she shut Derek out of her life and didn't allow anyone in her inner world.

Meredith glanced at the people who were guarding her. No one dared to look at her directly and they looked nervous.

When the maid who passed out after being drugged by Meredith saw her, the maid's eyes turned red, "Miss Mason, I'm sorry but you can only stay in the room in the future. We really can't stand the young master's anger.”

Meredith opened her mouth, feeling guilty about her, "I'm sorry, I... really didn't mean it."

After hearing Meredith's apology, the maid did not respond. Meredith's eyes darkened. What she said even amused herself. She did hurt another person, and there was no use in quibbling. They were right to resent her.

Perhaps she was such a person that no one could really trust her and she was not worthy of being trusted.

"Although you may no longer trust me, I will not run away again.”

After that, Meredith went back to her room and locked the door.

She was lying in bed. When she closed her eyes, there was only infinite bitterness in her heart. Right now, she was just a pet of Derek in a cage. She could not run away and even thinking about it would implicate the people around her.

She was such a encumbrance.

As Meredith thought about it, she felt a surge of pain in her heart. She could not help but caress her belly and begin to cry. She was still not as carefree as she thought.

"Baby, tell mommy what I should do."
