The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 115

Meredith was speechless for a moment. From yesterday until now, she had been thinking about these things. If she said that she didn't care, she was lying.

She...Was really moved by what Derek had done for her. But except that she felt nothing more.

They had nothing to do with each other now. She had no right to be jealous, right?

"No, I just think what you said is a little boring. If it's not about work, then I'll hang up."

Meredith pretended to be calm. Derek took a deep breath. "Chloe and I were in a relationship before, but we are not now."

Hearing this, Meredith laughed at herself. No wonder that woman's voice yesterday was so coquettish and soft. Chloe turned out to be someone he had loved before, so she was naturally much closer to him than the average person.

Men were always obsessed with their ex-girlfriends.

"Yesterday, she suddenly came back and asked me to pick her up. I can't leave her alone outside. I gave her clothes because she came back from abroad and she was shivering because of the coldness."

Derek didn't know why he had to explain so much. It was just when he heard Meredith's muffled voice, he said it unconsciously.

"Mmm." Meredith answered faintly. She had to say that Derek's words made her less upset.

"You should rest at home these days. Don't think too much." When Derek heard Meredith answer in a low voice, his frown loosened a little.

Hanging up the phone, Meredith finished her breakfast and planed to go shopping. While Derek started a new day's work.

Just as he was looking at the proposal in his hand, his phone rang again. It was Asher calling.

"Hey, you're so mean. Chloe's back. You picked her up yourself and you didn't even tell us."

Asher was very unhappy. He was a good friend of these two people from junior high school until now. When Chloe came back, no one even informed him. It was only after reading the gossip news in the newspaper that he found out about it.

"You should ask her, not me."

Derek was not polite at all. It was only last night that he found out that Chloe had returned home early and was caught off guard. How could he have time to tell anyone else?

"Fine." Asher curled his lips. "I just called her. This is a rare opportunity. Let's take this opportunity as Chloe has come back and we should hang out together."

Derek looked at the document in his hand. He didn't like to get involved in this kind of excitement. Just as he was about to say no, Asher seemed to know what he was going to say.

"Don't tell me you don't want to come. You never came to our classmates' parties and all kinds of parties in the social circle. Now that Chloe is back, can't you just come? At least we shall treat her to dinner on arriving. It's too embarrassing not to come."

Derek pondered for a moment and thought that since Chloe had come back, they should indeed hold a banquet to celebrate her return. Since someone was willing to be the organizer, it was okay for him to go.

So, he nodded. "Ok, you can decide the time and place, then just inform me."

Asher saw that Derek agreed and then he hung up happily.

...

Meredith first went to the supermarket to buy some baby stuff. Anyway, she was just idle and she wanted to do something. After shopping, she remembered that her usual nutritional supplements seemed to have run out. So, she walked into a pharmacy not far away.

"I want..."

Meredith was talking to the shop assistant when Derek's mother, Violet, happened to be here to buy things as well. Violet saw her who was standing not far from the counter.

Meredith?
