The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 287

Easton was lying on her bed, playing with the sheets.

For a moment, Meredith doubted her own eyes. How could it be...

Didn't Derek take the child away?

Just as Meredith was astonished, the door behind her was suddenly slammed shut by a large, slender hand. And with a bang, her confused thoughts were pulled back.

Derek came out of the bathroom. Water was still dripping from his hands. It seemed that he had just heard the noise made by her as she came back, so he came out.

"How did you..."

Meredith was startled. She spoke subconsciously, but suddenly, she remembered something.

She forgot to change her voice...

"Sure enough... It's you..."

How could Derek not recognize that this was Meredith's voice? He felt that he had missed the voice countless times, and he had recalled the voice countless times in his mind.

Even if there were more spring, summer, autumn and winter, he would not forget it.

Meredith's body tensed up in an instant and her mind went blank. How could Derek stand in front of her?

She was exposed. No, she shouldn't have...

Meredith pinched herself. She felt that maybe she was too tired recently, so she had hallucinations.

However, the man's face in front of her was so close and so clear, and it was different from the cold, repulsive cold of today.

Derek's handsome face had a tinge of eagerness, and there was a burning desire in his eyes that she did not want to guess.

Derek looked closely at Meredith. The make-up on her face made her face not like her at all. No wonder she dared to appear in front of him.

But fortunately, he didn't miss it. It was really her.

Meredith was not dead yet. She stood in front of him alive like this.

This feeling even made him breathe with some caution. He was afraid that this was a dream, and once he did something, the dream would wake up.

After a while, Meredith came back to her senses. She realized that her disguise had lost its meaning, and it was useless to pretend in front of Derek.

So, she immediately took a step back, turned around and grabbed the doorknob, trying to open the door and escape from here.

The joy in Derek's eyes dimmed a little when he saw her actions. The first thing she thought of was running away from her?

He reached out and held the doorknob. How could a weak woman like Meredith be able to resist the strength of an adult man's hand?

Only then did she realize that she could not escape from here.

And now, because of Xavier's action, Derek covered her whole body in his arms. The ambiguous feeling made her heart skip a beat.

It was as if Meredith was stung by something. She tried to get away from him and distance herself from Derek.

But how could Derek let her go so easily? With both hands on the door, he kept Meredith staying in his arms.

Meredith lowered her head and clenched her fists. Her teeth bit her lips unconsciously. She didn't want to look into Derek's eyes. She had nothing to say to this man.

"Can you move?"

Meredith spoke coldly, suppressing pain and anger.

With Derek around, she didn't want to stay here any longer.

Derek's eyes became furious.

He thought that when Meredith saw him, she would be angry, sad, and, perhaps she may slap him.

He could endure all of these.

He owed her this. And as long as she lived a good life, it didn't matter even if she wanted to beat him or scold him.

But Meredith's reaction was indifferent.

It was as if she had never cared about him before, and the coldness chilled his heart.

"Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"
