The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 286

"I might not be back today."

Derek said to Nanny Zhang. He then got in the car, showed the driver the address and told him to go there ASAP.

Nanny Zhang watched Derek leave, feeling a little uneasy as she was worried that she would be replaced by someone else because of her mistake.

She heard the conversation of Derek's phone call.

Naturally, Derek didn't know about this. When he held Easton, he looked serious.

Although he did not know what Meredith was thinking now, there was no doubt that she still had feelings for the child.

Perhaps what made her reluctant to show up was what the Xaviers did and... The hurt he had done to her.

A glint of determination flashed in Derek's eyes. He knew how much the incident had hurt Meredith, but it was still impossible for him to let go of her.

The moment he found out that she might still be alive, he could no longer be described as happy or joyful. Instead, there was strange calmness within him, which only he himself could feel. And the missing part of his chest was filled.

He had to bring that woman back, even if she was unwilling, and would hate him for it. Now that he had discovered her, he would never let her go again.

"Ah..." Easton didn't know what happened, but he reached out and poked Derek in the face.

"Easton, are you happy to see your mother?"

Derek held the child tightly. Easton's presence was his bargaining chip in his belief that Meredith would not leave.

...

Soon, the car stopped at the hotel where Parker stayed.

Perhaps he chose it for the sake of not attracting attention. The place he lived in was very remote. Although it was also a five-star hotel, it was located in the suburbs, and usually there was not much traffic.

As soon as Derek walked in, he attracted the attention of many people, especially the lobby manager. After recognizing him, the manager immediately came over eagerly.

"Mr. Xavier, what can I do for you?"

Derek was not so polite. "Parker, does he live here?"

The lobby manager hesitated for a moment. "I'm sorry, it is our guest's privacy. We can't disclose it."

Parker was also someone he could not afford to offend. So after hearing Derek's question, the lobby manager felt that he was caught in a dilemma.

It was obvious that this man was not here to stay, but to look for someone. He might be involved in something troublesome.

Derek smiled and looked at the hotel. Although the various architectural styles were extremely luxurious, the business here was not very good because of the poor management of the owner. It was put up for sale a long time ago.

Derek had no intention of investing in this kind of hotel, but now...

He smiled. "Recently, I've been interested in buying a hotel... It seems like it's not bad here."

If someone else said that, it might make people sneer. However, when Derek said it, it sounded very convincing. After all, now that the Xavier Group was rapidly expanding, it was not a big deal to buy a hotel.

"I like people who are flexible."

Derek's hint was already obvious.

The lobby manager hesitated for a moment, then said obsequiously. "Well, Mr. Hill does live here."

"Who else lives with him?"

Derek was most concerned about Meredith.

"There's another woman, but I don't know what her name is..."

"Don't you all register?"

"Well..." The lobby manager smiled awkwardly. After all, it was Parker who brought the woman here. How dare he ask more questions?

"What kind of woman is she?"

Derek asked with a frown.

"I can't see her clearly. She always wears thick sunglasses and a scarf, looking a little suspicious."
