Derek didn't exert much strength, but Meredith still felt that waves of pain spread from where the two of them were touched to her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
A simple action made her realize the reality. Now, the person Derek was protecting was not her, but another woman.
To him, it might be that he just lifted a finger. But it was this simple gesture that made her think that he was sincere.
Now, she realized that these were just a little charity from those superior men. She was really like what was said by Wesley, namely a toy played by Derek.
She slowly let go of her arm. Her arm that she had raised fell powerlessly.
Did they have to keep pestering each other?
There was nothing to ask.
But a man who had changed his heart... No, maybe he was just playing around from the very beginning. She was the only one who was too deep into the play alone. What else did she need to save?
Derek would eventually marry a woman who seemed to be the princess in a fairy tale. That was his world.
Thinking about it, Meredith couldn't help but laugh. The tears she had just shed were so hot that they almost burned her skin. At this moment, they were already cold.
"Let go of me."
Meredith said indifferently, and Derek was stunned. Her tone was very calm, but this kind of calm, at such a moment, did not make him feel relieved but it made her feel more uneasy.
"I won't do anything to upset you anymore, so let go of your hand."
Meredith murmured. Her voice was very soft, but there was a power that could not be ignored.
Derek unwittingly let go of her hand, and Meredith took a step back. Once again, she took a deep look at the couple in front of her.
Well, this girl was young and beautiful. She looked like a young girl who just graduated from college. She was as fresh and tender as a fresh spring onion. She looked pretty even she didn't put on any make-up.
Compared to her who had a big belly and didn't dress up all day, this girl was much better off. If she was a man, she would definitely like such a girl.
Hehe...
Meredith looked at the scene as if she was going to carve it into her mind. Finally, she closed her eyes and then looked at Derek. "Since Mr. Xavier has a new lover, I won't disturb you."
"Thank you for your care these days. I will take my mother to a new place as soon as possible. I won't cause you any more trouble."
After that, Meredith turned around and wanted to leave.
she didn't want to stay at this place that broke her heart and dignity any longer.
The back of a woman was slender but also resolute.
This was exactly what Derek wanted to see, but when he saw her leave, his heart still ached. Subconsciously, he chased after her and grabbed Meredith's arm. "What do you mean? When did I say that I wanted you to move out?"
Now, she was pregnant. How could she have the ability to earn a living and take care of the sick Amelia?
"Am I going to spend your money shamelessly? I'm sorry. I'm poor, but... I'm not that shameless. As for how can I earn a living in the future, it's all my own business..."
Meredith only found it extremely ironic. Derek's hand was still so hot, but to her now, that warmth was like lava which burned her skin and heart.
What was this?
He clearly didn't want her to stay by his side anymore, but he still had to act like he was deeply in love with her. Who was it for?
