Derek didn't believe it. He clearly remembered that the person he found that day was Nova.
Nova and Meredith had been always together for a period of time, and perhaps Meredith learned about it at that time.
"Meredith, don't lie. The person I found the other day was Nova. No matter what identity information she left or what she said later, there was no doubt that the person was Nova."
"If you don't want to take this child away, you don't have to. Leave him here and I will find a good family for him. After he is born, I will send him away. You don't have to say anything more."
Derek did not believe what Meredith had said because the evidence was very clear. And he could only think that Meredith lied to save the child.
This made his already troubled mood even more depressed.
"Why you don't believe me?" Meredith didn't expect this to happen. "Otherwise, you can call Nova and ask her what had happened on earth."
Derek's stubbornness hurt Meredith so much. He even didn't believe that her child was his. When had she lied about this kind of thing?
Seeing her stubbornness, Derek thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
It was just a phone call, and it wasn't difficult.
Now that Nova was receiving treatment abroad, Derek quickly called her family.
This was the first time Derek had called her for so long and Nova felt a little more excited.
These days, she had been persevering in her recovery. Because Derek had hired a top team in the field of sports rehabilitation to treat her, her legs had obviously improved. After another period of treatment, she would probably be able to return to normal.
Although she still couldn't run or jump, but it would be much better than sitting in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
"Nova, I have something to ask you." Without any small talk, Derek asked bluntly, "What exactly happened in the hotel?"
Nova's heart trembled. She thought that incident had been sealed up and would never be mentioned by anybody. At present, she couldn't lose the treatment provided by Derek. She didn't want the rest of her life to be ruined by her disabled legs. Besides, if it weren't for Meredith, she wouldn't have been so pitiful.
So Nova answered confidently, "Mr. Xavier, we've already confirmed that matter countless times. The clothes left that day and the work card left behind were all mine. Even if you don't believe me or doubt anything, you can check the surveillance as well."
Nova said with a sneer in her heart. She knew clearly the rules of the MS Hotel. The surveillance there was impossible for outsiders to see. Even if they wanted to, they could only see it for the last three months.
It had been nearly five months since that incident happened, and Derek had no evidence even if he doubted her and wanted to check.
Meredith didn't expect Nova to make up such a story. Nova knew exactly what happened that day. "Nova, how could you..."
"Meredith is there too... Mr. Xavier, that incident was an accident. I once told Meredith that because we were very close at the time, and you know it clearly... Is there anything else happening now?"
Nova pretended to be confused even though she knew exactly what happened in her heart. So, it was Meredith who wanted to tell the truth?
She couldn't let Meredith tell the truth. If Derek knew it was Meredith that day, he would definitely fall out with her. And then her previous efforts would be in vain.
Nova's words made Derek's face even gloomier. After hanging up, the man glanced at Meredith. "So, what else do you want to say? She even dares to let people check the surveillance cameras. If she's lying, how can she be so bold?"
