"It doesn't matter. Just earn it back by other ways.”

Derek was very confident. Because of Meredith's special identity, it was necessary to get along well with the Smith family. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Although she had gotten the token from Andy, if she just went directly to say that she was Cali's daughter, Old Master Smith would definitely doubt that and threw them out.

"Okay, I got it."

Damian began to modify the contract plan, making the Smith family benefit the most.

A few hours later.

The plane landed smoothly at the airport.

Meredith was woken up, and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in the first class seat, covered with a blanket.

However, after a nap, she felt better. She stretched and looked to see Derek had already packed everything and looked vigorous.

She wondered why he was so energetic.

Derek noticed and walked over. "How are you? Did you rest well?"

Meredith nodded. "Aren't you tired?"

Derek shook his head, who was used to working overtime at night and not resting for a long time. Seemingly, some people naturally did not need a lot of time to rest, because it will be easier to succeed.

Derek could be such a person.

"What are you thinking about?"

Derek reached out and knocked her on the head.

"No... Nothing."

Meredith shrugged. She would not say that she was lamenting the unfairness.

Derek did not ask much. When the three of them got off the plane, someone came to pick them up. "Where are we going first?”

Damian did not know if they planned to go to the Smith family first or find a doctor for Penelope first.

"Let's go find that professor first.”

Meredith felt it was not in a hurry to go to the Smith family, and the most important thing now was to treat Penelope.

Hearing this, Damian breathed a sigh of relief. He also planned to do the same. After all, he did not want Penelope to wait alone in the hospital.

The three of them immediately went to the Research Center where Professor Lee was staying. However, they were told that Professor Lee had gone out to talk about investing.

Derek raised his eyebrows and asked, only to find out that the Research Center needed to be rebuilt and expanded, thus needing investment to upgrade the equipment.

Obviously, this was a good opportunity. Derek took out his business card and handed it to the man. "This is my business card. I'm interested in investing.”

The Xaviers has always wanted to do something concerning the medical field, but there was no top hospitals in the city where Derek lived.

So it would have a good profit to move the top medical Research Center to J City.

"Okay, I'll contact Professor Lee right away.”

The man immediately went to Professor Lee.

He called Professor Lee, who was in the Smith family talking to Joseph, the only son of Old Master Smith.

In the past, a large part of Professor Lee's research funding was given by Cali. Cali had studied medicine herself, so she was particularly interested in this research, and the Smith family also funded a lot of money to his Research Center.

But now that she has been dead for many years, the Smith family people paid less attention to his institute.

Joseph felt that it was pointless to fund. The only thing he wanted to talk about when he called Professor Lee over was to buy the invention patent.

Professor Lee naturally did not want to, but could not compete with the Smith family. So he had no choice but to go to the Smith family to talk about it.

"Mr. Smith, what you said is really not in line with our research direction. I think..."

"It doesn't matter what you think. I think it's okay, Professor Lee. You can only make money if you cater to the market."

Just then Professor Lee answered a call.

Professor Lee's eyes lit up when he heard that a new investor was willing to help him.

"Mr. Smith, a man said he was interested in continuing to fund our research. I'll go back first." Joseph was very unhappy, but he could only let him go.

However, Joseph was furious instead.

Who dared to go against their Smith family?

"Find out who he is."

Joseph ordered someone to check it out.

As a result, Joseph felt speechless when knowing the man was Derek.

"This Derek..."

Joseph remembered this name very well.

Back then, it was Derek who rejected the marriage requested by Old Master Smith. Although Joseph had no feelings for his sister Cali's daughter, he was even more annoyed with people who dared to defy the Smith family.

"How dare the Xaviers come to Capital City?"

Joseph thought something was wrong and told it to Old Master Smith.

He was the one who proposed this acquisition of the Research Center. If he could not finish it now, he would definitely be scolded. But if he told Old Master Smith it was Derek who made things difficult for him, he would not be scolded.

Old Master Smith was drinking tea when he heard that Derek had come to Capital City and became so furious.

"Derek rejected marrying with Evelyn and is now going against us. How dare he?"

Derek, who was waiting for Professor Lee at the Research Center, sneezed violently.

Meredith looked at him. "You don't have a cold, do you?"

Derek shook his head. He felt as if someone was talking about him.

"Nothing."

Derek was expressionless and indifferent.

Meredith took out a box of cold medicine from her bag. "Take the medicine if you have a cold. Don't push yourself."

Derek couldn't help but laugh. "What, are you worried about me?"

Meredith was a little speechless. "I was just afraid that you might catch a cold and infect me!" "Don't you know that if you catch a cold, it is better to infect others?"

Derek said with conviction, "But how do you want me to infect you?"
