"You don't blame me this time?"

Easton remembered that he once sneaked out to play tricks on them and, in the end, got scolded by Derek.

"The circumstances are different. Now, I need your help.”

After Derek finished speaking, he patted Easton on the shoulder solemnly, as if he had entrusted everything to him.

"I have to go to school. I'm not available.”

Easton wanted to take this opportunity to skip class.

Of course Derek knew what was on Easton's mind. But since Easton had already learned what was going to be taught in school, he said, "It's okay for you to be out of school for a few days."

"Well, I'll help you out.” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Meredith slept in the hospital last night. Now, she had nothing else to do. It was good to spend more time with Amelia.

After getting up, Meredith washed up and went to see Amelia.

Unexpectedly, Amelia got up earlier than her.

"Mom, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"I'm old and I don't need much sleep. Didn't you say yesterday that Parker would come over? When will he come?”

Amelia did not forget what Meredith had said. Meredith was embarrassed.

She went to bed early last night and didn't make the call. "I'll ask him now."

Amelia shook her head and thought to herself, "This girl never goes for herself."

Therefore, she had to worry about this.

Meredith immediately called Parker.

Parker had been sleeping. He was irritated when he heard the phone ring. But when he saw that it was Meredith, he woke up, sat up, and answered the phone.

"Hello, Meredith, what's wrong?"

Parker's voice sounded a little hoarse, Meredith didn't know if she woke him up. She apologized, "I'm sorry. Did I wake you up?”

"Nothing."

Parker immediately got up, walked into the bathroom, and looked in the mirror, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Actually, my mother wanted to see you when she heard you're back.”

Hearing this, Parker did not hesitate and immediately agreed, "Really? Good. I planned to visit her. Where are you now?"

Meredith told him the address of the hospital, and Parker became anxious when he heard that they were in the hospital, "Why are you there? Any of you gets sick?"

"Yes. My mother is sick.”

Meredith didn't want to hide it from Parker.

Hearing this, Parker frowned. He didn't contact them when he was abroad. He felt sorry for not knowing about that.

"I'll be right there.”

Parker washed up quickly and immediately drove to where Meredith was.

After receiving his reply, Meredith told Amelia that he would be here soon. Amelia nodded. Meredith asked someone to bring breakfast here. They had a simple meal and waited for Parker. Not long after, Parker's car stopped at the entrance of the hospital.

According to the ward number, he went upstairs and quickly found where it was.

Coincidentally, Meredith sent out the cutlery and they met.

"So quickly?"

Meredith hadn't expected that Parker would arrive within no more than 15 minutes after hung up. "Hearing that your mother was sick, I had to rush over as soon as possible.”

Hearing he was concerned about Amelia, Meredith was grateful. Amelia heard someone talking outside, sp she asked, "Who's there? Parker?"

"Yes, it's me."

Parker said immediately.

"Please come in."

Amelia wanted to see Parker and asked him to come in instantly.

"She's in there. You could talk. I'll get the stuff out,” Meredith said and walked out.

Parker went into the ward and looked at Amelia, who looked a little older than she was in his memory, and her hair got grayer. Perhaps because of her illness, she had lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard.

However, she seemed to be in good spirits, which made Parker feel relieved.

"Why didn't the person I sent tell me about this?"

Parker was angry. If he had known earlier, he would have come back earlier.

Perhaps, he wouldn't have met Meredith so late.

"I didn’t let him tell you." Actually, Amelia had told the man, but it looked like something went wrong.

Now, Amelia didn't want to pursue that matter, so she patched up a lie.

"How are you now?"

Parker asked her with concern.

"Not bad. Now, it's the specific medicine that keeps me alive. But who knows what will happen in the future?"

Amelia shook her head. After going through so many things, she went easy on death and wasn't afraid of the day coming.

However, she was concerned about her daughter.

She would not die in peace without making sure that Meredith found a good husband.

"How come? Can we do anything about it?"

Hearing Parker's words of concern, Amelia smiled, "I asked you to come here not because I wanted to discuss my illness with you. I want to ask you if you still have feelings for Mer right now." Amelia was so explicit that Parker was stunned.

However, he quickly replied, "My feelings for her have never changed.”

Hearing this, Amelia nodded. She felt that Parker was a very reliable man. He did not abandon Meredith even when Meredith was at her most difficult time.

Although he did not have a strong family background as Derek did, he fought his way up all by himself. He was outstanding and trustworthy, and she was willing to entrust her daughter to him. "I don't know how long I can live, so I asked you here. I hope you can take care of Mer, protect her and let her live happily for the rest of her life."

Hearing this, Parker immediately said, "I won't let you down.”

Parker had never forgotten Meredith. When he was abroad over these years, he thought about how to revenge her. Now that Amelia made this request, how could he refuse?

"That's good. I believe you. However, you need Mer's consent, so you should work hard. However, I will try my best to help you!"

Amelia said with satisfaction. They chatted for a while. Meredith pushed the door open and came back, and they stopped talking.

"What are you talking about? Why do you stop talking when I come back?"

Meredith always felt strange, not knowing if they were hiding something from her.

Amelia didn't want her to speculate, so she asked Parker, "Have you had breakfast? It looks like you just got up.”

Parker shook his head. Amelia just glanced at Meredith. "Mer, it's your fault. How could you ask Parker to come and see me when he was starved?"
