Vincent threw a glance at Meredith and sneered, "We can do something else!"
"You are so annoying. We are at the sea. Aren't you afraid of being seen by others?" Meredith mistook his intentions and thought that Vincent wanted to have sex with her outside.
Vincent frowned and came straight to the point, "Yeah, I am annoying. I have brought someone with me. Perhaps he would like to do something else with you."
Meredith was stunned slightly and frowned, "Who?"
Vincent's eyes glistened and he said calmly, "Your old sweetheart."
He clapped his hands. The car door was pushed open and Harvey got off from the car, trembling. When he saw Meredith, he said shakily, "Meredith, you screwed up everything! I'm fired. All the hospitals in F City refuse to recruit me..."
Meredith looked paler and said hurriedly, "Who are you? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"You don't know him?" Vincent chuckled and frowned slightly with his dark eyes shrinking.
Meredith pretended to be wronged and sobbed, "I don't know him!"
"Meredith, you..." Harvey was stunned, frowned, and whispered, "We are so intimate that I even see you naked, but you don't admit that you know me?"
Meredith said in surprise, "Don't slander me. Am I that kind of person? Vincent, he is slandering me! How could I..."
Vincent threw a sharp gaze and said coldly, "Meredith, you seemed to forget that Mike became a famous agent in the entertainment industry with my help and I introduced you to him. I didn't expect that you would not treasure this opportunity. So, you won't tell the truth until there is no way out?"
Meredith raised her head and tears flowed down suddenly. She looked very tender, "Vincent, I admitted that he was a one-night stand."
A hint of coldness flashed across Vincent's eyes, "Apart from it, what else did you do? Tell the truth!"
"No!"
"Vincent, Meredith asked me to replace that report. I didn't want to do that, but she said I was her first man and threatened me that she would sue me for forcible rape!"
"Her first man?" Vincent chuckled, "Dr. Baker, how childish you are! You don't persist in professional ethics for this loose woman?"
Meredith frowned and sobbed, "Vincent, he was indeed my first man!"
"Well, the designer and your college classmate who has lived with you for a long time have erectile problems? They never have sex with you?" Vincent squinted and threw a sharp gaze on her.
Meredith looked down, bit her lips, and choked, "How do I know..."
Vincent snorted and made a phone call in front of them, "Mike, stop arranging work for Meredith. Moreover, tell other companies that Meredith has a bad nature. If they sign a contract with her, it means that they are going against me!"
Meredith's face turned pale, "Vincent, it's my fault. Don't do that!"
"I've given you the last chance, but you didn't cherish it. I hope to accumulate merit for my unborn child, so I don't want to be so ruthless. But you haven't admitted the mistake that you made by now. I cannot let you off! Due to what you did, my wife refused to forgive me and I suspected myself when I had a kid. I could not let you off so easily!"
"Vincent ... I beg you..." Meredith came at Vincent and grabbed his arm, "I am wrong!"
"It's too late!" Vincent breathed a sigh of relief with a complicated look and said in a deep voice, "Meredith, you'll pay the price for what you've done!"
"Vincent..."
"Mr. White, can you forgive me? I will starve to death without a job! Please let me off..."
The car door was pushed open and Leila got off from the car.
Meredith was stunned for a moment and pointed at Leila, "She is Leila? You are not divorced?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Vincent asked.
Leila picked up Vincent's phone at dusk. He said he would take her to know the truth. Leila was dragged into his car. Vincent took another person and they went to the seaside together.
Vincent didn't go to too much detail but asked Leila to watch the show in the car.
Therefore, she stayed in the car quietly, listened to their conversation, got off the car with a calm look, and looked at Vincent.
"Leila, both of them set me up!"
"Vincent, they set you up, but you did nothing wrong?" Leila questioned in a cold voice, "By now, I don't think you've figured out the problem. You don't need to see me anymore. I feel too tired."
With that said, Leila walked to the seaside road.
"Leila!" Vincent was in a hurry and caught up with Leila. "It's my fault. I know you are mad at me. I don't blame it on others."
Seeing that Leila ignored him, Vincent's face darkened. He stared at Leila in frustration. He was not proud but fragile at this moment. He looked very lonely and ill at ease when he spoke in a hoarse voice, "A lot of things happened to us. I want to be with you and go through difficulties with you. Let me take care of you."

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
