After hearing what Easton said, Meredith was even shyer, but it was impossible for her to break away from Derek.
So she was carried into the bedroom.
"So, it's better to tell the truth, or else, I can only use some unconventional means."
Derek smiled evilly. Meredith immediately understood what he meant. "Just something hit my back. It's not serious. I only need to rest for two days."
"Hit?"
Derek frowned even tighter. Wasn't it obvious that someone had hit her?
After all, even if she fell or something, she wouldn't hurt her back.
"Show me."
Derek reached out to untie Meredith's clothes.
Who knew if this woman was trying to be strong again?
"Didn't you say you didn't need to..."
"Who knows if you're telling the truth?"
Derek was determined to cheat. Meredith had no choice but to give up.
When he untied her clothes, he saw a bruise mark on her fair skin, which seemed painful, and the man looked even more awful.
"Who did it?"
Now that someone dared to hit Meredith, was he tired of living?
"Forget it. It's been dealt with."
Meredith didn't want to talk about the Masons, but Derek was relentless. "You went out with Penelope today? If you don't tell me, I'll have to ask her."
"Don't..."
Meredith stopped Derek. Penelope had been running with her for a whole day. It was hard enough. If Penelope was to be questioned by Derek, she would be too exhausted.
"I went for Wesley because I wanted to know what happened when I was born."
Meredith told him everything that had happened today. Unexpectedly, after Derek heard it, not only didn't he feel any better, but he gave her a hard slap on the buttocks. "If you want to find a clue, why don't you ask me to go with you?"
Had this woman not learned any lesson after having suffered so much from the Masons?
At the thought of this, Derek wanted to press her down on the bed and teach her a lesson so that she could remember it.
Meredith was so embarrassed by his actions that she buried her face in the sheets and her ears were red. "I just think you're busy, and I don't want to rely on you to do anything."
After Derek heard this, he felt helpless and heartbroken. This woman's stubbornness really made him helpless, but if she wasn't like this, maybe he wouldn't like her so much.
"I'll put some medicine on you."
Derek had no choice but to find the ointment and put it on for Meredith. Although he said it unhappily, he did it gently.
Of course, there was no lack of thinking about how to make Clara pay the price in his mind.
"So, what information did you get?"
"Wesley said that there was only one woman who also gave birth that day. It was said that she was from some the Smiths in the Capital City."
Derek paused, as if he didn't expect her to say this. the Smiths in the Capital City, perhaps the average person didn't know about it, but how could he not know?
