The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 504

After all, Meredith had stayed in J City for a long time. She knew that Parker just came back. She wanted to have a talk with him, furthermore, to comfort him with a warm welcome.

Parker wouldn't refuse her goodwill, for sure.

Meredith got into the car as Parker looked at her with his gentle eyes. "Where do you wanna go for food?"

Meredith considered for a moment. Now, she was not that poor girl anymore, so she wanted to treat him in a nice restaurant.

"Let's go to the Michelin restaurant on the outskirts of the city."

Meredith turned on her phone and tried to use the navigation system. But her phone was out of charge.

She thought it would take little time for eating. After that, she was supposed to immediately pack what Easton liked to eat and went back home. Everything would be in control.

"I don't know how to get there. Please show me the way."

Of course, Parker listened to Meredith. For him, eating was secondary. Securing time with Meredith was the most important thing.

So, although he could use the navigation system, he still asked Meredith to show him the way.

Because only in this way could he have a few more words with her.

Meredith did not find anything unusual, because Parker might find the J City unfamiliar after all those years.

They were chatting occasionally in the car, and neither of them felt bothered.

...

Ding, it's 1:30 in the afternoon. You have a reminder--getting up and going to work."

Easton, who was still sleeping, heard Meredith's alarm clock and got up.

When he got up, he realized that Meredith was no longer with him.

He couldn't help but panic. He jumped off the bed without even putting on his shoes. "Mom? Mom?"

The house was quiet and no one answered.

He searched all the rooms again and found no clues of his mother. She was not here.

Easton was so angry that he stomped his feet. He shouldn't have slept. Now that his mother was gone, what could he do?

After thinking for a while, he called Derek directly.

Derek had just settled his work and was about to go to Meredith's when he received a call from his son.

"What's wrong, Easton?"

"I'm sorry, Dad. I fell asleep. Then... Then..."

The more Easton spoke, the more upset he became. He felt so wronged that he almost cried.

"Easton, what's the matter?"

Derek had an ominous intuition when she heard Easton's anxious voice.

"I don't know where mom is. I've searched around. She's not at home."

When Derek heard this, he assumed something to be wrong.

After all, Meredith had just run into a lot of trouble. He was a little worried that she would go to extremes.

However, he still chose to comfort Easton with a gentle voice. "I won't blame you for this. You didn't mean it. Dad will send someone to look for you immediately. Wait for me at home. Don't cry."

"I won't cry."

Easton was eager to show his machismo, but he cannot help but sniff.

When he knew his mother was missing just now, he was really going to cry.

After all, he had no maternal company since he was a child. In fact, he was very insecure, and now, he felt inexplicably abandoned.

"Men in the Xaviers won't cry. I'll go back now. Wait for me."

...

Meredith and Parker arrived at the restaurant very soon.

"What do you want to eat?"

Parker was Meredith's guest, so she had to take his taste into account.
