The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 423

Compared to his struggle, Easton was much happier. He also got a kiss on the cheek from Meredith, which made Derek jealous.

A week passed quickly, and in a flash, it was the weekend.

Meredith was still dressed professionally. She stood in front of the mirror this morning, wondering if she should wear something nice.

But for the Xaviers, it was just a meeting. Besides, the people from the Xaviers didn't seem to be worth her effort.

Maybe she would be mocked by Derek's mother, so she decided to put on her business attire.

In any case, the professional outfits that Derek had prepared for her were designed in a casual style, suitable both in work and after work.

The Xaviers mansion was thousands of meters in size, and the tree-lined green road covered the perimeter layer by layer. From time to time, the guards could be seen patrolling.

Derek looked at Meredith, who was absent-minded. He held her hand and whispered, "Don't be nervous. Grandpa has a good impression of you. For Easton's sake, he won't make things difficult for you."

Meredith glanced at him, took her hand back, and said calmly, "Why the hell do you think I'm nervous? It's just a meeting. Why should I be nervous?"

Derek, "..."

He frowned tightly. Meredith's reaction made him realize that her grudge was more serious than he had imagined.

It seemed that Meredith's usual calm look would disappear as soon as he mentioned his family, as if she was ready to fight.

Derek didn't know what to say. His eyes were dim and he looked thoughtful.

In the middle was the main mansion. The Xaviers didn't have many family members and they all lived in the main mansion.

At the back of both sides of the main mansion, there were piles of auxiliary buildings, most of which were empty, and a few were for servants and housekeepers to live in. The huge mansion looked very deserted.

Derek and Meredith got out of the car. The servants outside the house greeted Derek one after another. They did not dare to look at the strange woman beside their young master because of the strict rules.

Although the Old Master of the Xaviers was rather elderly, he had always been the pillar of the Xaviers.

"Where's the Old Master?"

The butler said respectfully, "In the back garden, playing with Little Young Master."

Derek took Meredith to the back garden and saw a young and old figure from afar. He could vaguely hear an old but energetic laugh.

Before the two of them got close, they were noticed by the old and young.

Mr. Xavier was dressed in a long robe and a coat. His grey hair was neatly combed. His old face did not look haggard. Although he was nearly 80 years old, he looked very energetic.

A pair of muddy eyes became sharp the moment they locked on Meredith.

Easton's big eyes lit up and he immediately threw away the things in his hands. He ran towards Meredith and shouted, "Mom, mom..."

The little fellow's reaction and address towards the woman surprised the Old Master, then his face darkened, and he scrutinized her with cold eyes.

Meredith's face remained calm and expressionless in the face of this distinguished Old Master, but her heart was filled with complicated emotions. Perhaps she was in a different mood.

If it was her old self, no matter which the Xaviers member she was facing, she would feel inferior and uneasy.
