The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 452

Of course, it was not proper for her to ask for that directly. Now that Violet offered her the chance, things got really convenient for her.

Violet patted her hand and smiled archly, "Derek has been invited too. He would be there this year. Remember to dress up nicely, all right?"

A blush flashed on Caroline's face, and she lowered her head bashfully to hide the joy in her eyes. Then, as if thinking of something, she raised her head and said in embarrassment.

"Auntie, Mr. Xavier has been at odds with me since what happened in the hospital. Would he be unhappy to see me at the auction?"

"Don't worry, you're Mr. Xavier's guest. Derek respects his grandfather very much and won't let him down. You can just go there."

"If there's anything you like at the auction, ask Derek to buy it for you."

"Derek has always been very busy at work. Even if he works in D City, he rarely has time to come back. You must seize the opportunity this time," Violet said genially.

That was true, and Caroline also agreed with that.

Ever since she lived in the Xaviers, she had only seen Derek several times. Even when Derek came back, he always plunged into the study and ordered the housekeeper to serve dinner for him.

Originally, she had planned to get closer to Derek, but now, even if she was at the Xaviers every day, she had got the least chance of meeting him.

During the time since she went back, all clues she had seen on tv, in newspapers, in magazines, and experienced personally in the Xaviers had exposed that the Xaviers had overwhelming power and financial resources.

Every time she thought of this, she felt a rush of enthusiasm in her heart, and her inflated ambition was getting bigger and bigger.

As long as she could marry Derek, and became the mistress of the Xaviers, all of the power and fortune would belong to her, and she would also enjoy numerous wealth and fame.

That was right, that was the life she had been longing for, the life that she should live. She believed that she would definitely succeed.

Soon, the date of the auction came.

Derek attended the charity auction, but he also brought a female companion with him, who was naturally Meredith.

It took him several days to let Meredith agree to go with him.

It was not because Meredith felt reluctant to go with Derek, but because the participants of such a large auction were all from prominent families, and there would even be journalists at the scene.

Derek would definitely be the focus of these people's attention at that time. Meredith did not want to be paid attention to. Then the rumors between them would be spread again.

But after all, Meredith was too tender to reject his persistent request, so finally she agreed.

In fact, to be honest, in the headquarters of Xavier Group, rumors about her and Derek had been spread for a long time. If Derek had not restrained them forcefully, the news had already been reported by the journalists.

Derek was dressed in a custom-made suit and Meredith in a lavender slim dress with a girdle. They stood together, both elegant and attractive, drawing countless attention as soon as they entered.

Derek calmly responded to everyone's pleasantries, but every time when someone asked about Meredith beside him, the smile on his face became more sincere. Then he naturally told others that he was courting her.

The woman pursued by Derek with his confirmation immediately received as much attention as Derek himself, which made Meredith felt so awkward that she almost turned around and left.
