The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 53

Then Meredith found that her hair was twined on the button of his shirt. She had moved a little just now but almost tore off a bunch of hair. She almost cried for the pain.

"Wait, I'll remove it." Meredith's face was burning so badly that all she wanted to say was that this damn hair really messed her up by winding on his button.

Derek did not move, allowing her to do what she wanted to.

But Meredith had to keep her head down in case of pulling her hair. Thus, she groped for a long time in vain, only rubbing his chest left and right. Thus, she was so ashamed and wanted to escape.

"Are you removing your hair or taking advantage of it?" Derek was touched by her hands, which were so soft as if they had no bones. His eyes were filled with eagerness.

Did she do it on purpose?

"No, I... I can't see it clearly..." Meredith wanted to give up. "How about cutting it off with scissors."

Derek looked at her, whose ears were so red as if they were about to blood. His slender fingers reached out and dealt with it casually. Miraculously, he easily pulled out her hair, which Meredith could not remove before.

"Do you still insist that you are not intentional?" Derek said with a teasing look.

"I..." Meredith was dumbfounded. She saw the rare relaxed expression of the handsome man and felt the warmth of his embrace on her body. She felt impetuous and said, "I'll go out and found out what happened."

Derek looked at her fleeing back and smiled more happily.

Then, he thought of something else, so he stopped smiling and called Damian.

"Take the person who comes from the Howards out of the hospital."

Derek's eyes darkened and his tone was callous.

He was annoyed by Leo's unpleasant words, so he had to teach Leo a lesson.

"Isn't that... not good? After all, Xavier Group is cooperating with an entertainment company of the Howards."

Damian was embarrassed and he didn't know what the boss wanted to do all of a sudden.

Derek frowned, remembering that Xavier Group did intend to work with the Howards to make inroads into the entertainment industry.

"Take me to the company. I want to reexamine the risks of this collaboration."

Derek thought for a moment and then directly decided.

When Damian heard it, he felt bitter. They almost made a deal in the plan. Why did he stop?

When Meredith returned to the ward, Derek had already left. Looking at the vacant room, she felt empty suddenly.

But soon, Meredith shook her head again. Was she still fantasizing about Derek's accompanying her for another night?

It was too sentimental to think of that just for his one visit.

...

His grandfather was in a private hospital that had the highest level of medical care in J City. And it demonstrated the patients' social status to receive treatment in a VIP ward here.

Not to mention that Old Master Howard was ill, how could the Howards agree to transfer him? They had said all the good things about the hospital but in vain. No matter what, they were told to transfer Old Master Howard immediately. Moreover, they were told that someone at the top level had given the order.

The only people Leo had offended recently were Meredith and the man who kept her.

"Nonsense!" Meredith had no choice but to see that everyone had already left. She would have nothing to eat if she was late so she wanted to get rid of Leo. But he held her arm tightly and it seemed that he would not give up easily.

"So what? Aren't you great? Can't you handle it?"

Meredith was too upset to struggle. Since Leo was about to make a scene, she would like to see what he wanted to do.

"Meredith, I really didn't expect you to be like this. How humble are you to acquire money and power at the price of your body! You are so proud now. Which old man are you relying on?"

Leo was the last person to see Meredith smug. Thinking that she might have been sleeping with a man in the hospital to cause troubles for him, he felt bad as if ten thousand ants were gnawing at his heart.

Meredith looked at him indifferently. They regarded her as such a woman who would sell her body by any means?

However, she also disdained to pester such a scumbag. "Yes, so what? He's much better than you. At least I won't be chased out of the hospital. Leo, you'd better think about how to arrange for your grandfather rather than talking with me here."

A flash of anger flashed in Leo's eyes. It was quiet there. People who rushed to and from work all left for a long time, so no one noticed them.

"Is he better than me? How do you know before trying to stay with me? Well, break up with him, maybe I can make you my lover. It is much better for you to stay with me than an old bald man with a beer belly!"
