Chapter 13


    Ava was deted. Seeing Meredith''s mockery, she gritted her teeth in an angrier way. She stomped her


    feet and went back to the vi furiously.


    ra felt sorry for Ava, but she was also afraid of the Xavier Family. So, she had to submit to


    humiliation and pull Leo forward, "Well, Leo, five million is five million. We''ll pay for it. If this thing is


    exposed, you have to think for Ava. If what happened in the car just now gets out, Ava''s career will be


    affected..."


    ra also used such seductive methods to get ahead. When she saw the blush on their faces, she


    knew what Leo and Ava had just done in the car. Once this thing got out and became serious, it would

    affect her daughter, Ava, the most. No matter what, ra had to think for her daughter.


    Anyway, it was Leo who paid for it, not the Mason Family.


    Wesley also stepped forward, "Yeah, give it to him. If you get into awsuit, it won''t cost you just five


    million."


    Leo gritted his teeth angrily and looked at the driver viciously for a long time. He wished that he could


    cut this man who suddenly appeared and ckmailed him into pieces in his heart. How could he, the


    Young Master of the Howard Family, be willing to suffer such a huge loss for no reason?


    But under pressure, he still took out his card and threw it to that man.


    The driver took out the POS machine and transferred five million. Before he left, he smiled and said,


    "Mr. Howard, be careful next time when you drive. I wish you a happy life."


    "Get out of here!" Leo was so enraged by the fact that the driver acted as a good man after


    ckmailing him.


    The driver calmly got in the car, drove to Meredith''s side, then got out of the car and opened the door


    for Meredith, "Miss Mason, please get in the car."


    Seeing that the Mason Family and Leo had suffered such a big loss, Meredith wanted tough. She


    thought that he, Leo, was a very proud and arrogant man. But it turned out that he could also suffer


    such a setback.


    Meredith felt much better for no reason, and her movements into the car were much quicker and


    smoother.


    The car drove away. Wesley narrowed his eyes as he watched Meredith get into the car of the Xavier


    Family.


    "This lowly bitch has actually established connections with the Xavier Family!" When ra saw that the


    driver was actually theplice of Meredith, she fulminated with anger.


    "Derek is still in aa. The Xavier Family picked her up. I''m afraid that they think putting her into jail


    is not enough to atone for her sins and want to torture her in another way. She may not end up much


    better than being sent to prison. What awaits her may not be heaven, but in fact, hell."


    Leo looked in the direction of Meredith''s departure, his eyes dark and thoughtful.


    When they returned to the Xavier Family, it was already dark. Meredith simply ate something and went


    back to the room. Out of habit, she checked Derek''s body first. He was still sleeping quietly. And his


    body was warm with no new wounds. Nothing was unusual.


    As usual, she massaged Derek for an hour. As she massaged, Meredith thought of all the things that


    happened today and suddenly remembered that ambiguous look in senior Mr. Xavier''s eyes when he


    let her back to the Mason Family during the day.


    Meredith suddenly understood what it meant. It was a kind of mockery, a kind of disdain.


    Meredith was full of gratitude at the time, thinking that senior Mr. Xavier really let her go home out of


    kindness. But in fact, he let her go home because he wanted to let her see her current situation clearly,


    namely, the Mason Family was not a harbor she could rely on and even the people of the Mason


    Family wanted her to die.


    They all abandoned her, including her beloved fiance, who was already on the same side as the Mason


    Family,


    The senior Mr. Xavier just wanted Meredith to go back and experience that in person so that she could


    understand that only by obediently listening to the Xavier Family could she stay alive, and only by


    relying on the Xavier Family could she be protected.


    Otherwise, if she really got the so-called freedom on her own, it would definitely be deprived by the


    Mason Family.


    His intention was to let her be convinced that she shall rely on the Xavier Family after experiencing the


    grim reality. That was the reason why he showed mockery and disdain to Meredith''s gratitude.


    It turned out that this was the n of the scheming master of the Xavier Family.


    She looked at the Derek who was in front of her. She had heard it a long time ago that Derek was


    senior Mr. Xavier''s most preferred junior. And he was the only junior who had surpassed senior Mr.


    Xavier in wits and scheme. senior Mr. Xavier was already so scheming. What about Derek? If he woke


    up, what would he do to her?


    Meredith withdrew her hand in fear. To some extent, she did not dare to touch Derek''s body again. But


    a hot body stretched his hands and grabbed her from behind and held her slender body into his arms...
