Chapter 22
But at the next moment, the police went back, and the first thing he did was to unlock Meredith''s
handcuffs, "You can go now." He turned to ra and Lily, "You two stay!"
With the handcuffs on Lily''s hands, ra and Lily were dumbfounded, "Sir, there must be a
misunderstanding. Meredith is the one who stole the card. We, we are the ones who reported her!"
"Someone hase to prove that Meredith did not steal the card. Lily is suspected of defamation and
nder, which is serious and she must be in custody."
Someone hade to prove her clean? Could it be that man who proved Meredith''s innocence?
Meredith subconsciously rushed out, leaving ra and Lily behind who were still trying to defend
themselves.
Inside the , among the crowd, Meredith saw a tall figure who had already walked to the gate. He was
wearing a suit and had a broad back, very simr to the guy she had seen at night before!
"Wait, stop!"
Meredith tried to get through, but she couldn''t catch up with him because of the crowd.
Finally, she had to take out her cell phone and called him.
The moment the phone rang, she saw the man at the door picked up the phone!
It was him!
"Meredith, how stupid can you be? You can get yourself into the even if you were just buying clothes!
Even such a nobody can bully you like this?" The man''s voice came from the phone, which made
Meredith feel somehow at ease.
"Had youe to the to prove my innocence?" Holding her phone, she moved closer and closer to
him, her heart pounding.
"Who else could it be? Do you think the Xaviers will help you? Don''t be ridiculous, how can you get into
such trouble a second time and the Xaviers still want to help you? In this world, no one else will help
you so many times but me!"
Meredith was moved by the man''s sarcasm. She had already walked up to him and said, "Thank you
for helping me today. If you hadn''te and I couldn''t go back to the Xaviers tonight, they would not
spare me..."
"You surely know how to behave today. If you can be like this at night, I''ll be satisfied." The man then
hung up.
Meredith looked at the man in front of her who just put the phone away. She was more certain that the
man in front of her was that man!
Seeing that the man was about to leave, Meredith hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed his sleeve, and
took a few steps around to face him, but was stunned when she saw his face.
"Derek, it''s you?"
Derek saw Meredith and frowned, "Why are you here?"
"Don''t pretend you don''t know why. You saved me, no need to act like that! Aren''t you tired of ying
two roles every day? Is it fun to y me in the palm of your hand?"
Meredith red up. If Derek wanted to torture her, why did he bother toe to harass her every night?
What could she do even if he wanted to torture her in public!
He thought it was fun for her to live fearfully in the Xaviers, didn''t he? Was it fun?
During this period of time, she was careful during the day and afraid at night. But he enjoyed it very
much, didn''t he?
It turned out that he had woken up earlier. It might be a scam of him to get her out of prison to take care
of him so that he could torture her till she copsed, till she went crazy.
"Psycho!"
Derek shook off her hand and walked towards the car at the door. Meredith stopped him and grabbed
the phone from his hand, "Don''t try to get away with it. I just called you. I have evidence!"
She clicked open Derek''s phone records, and the first call was made two minutes ago!
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
But... That number was not Meredith''s number...
"This, this is impossible!"
"Meredith, you think too highly of yourself. I''m just here to take care of my own business, not to save
you. I don''t know how or when you got yourself in. Besides, do you really think I''ll be kind enough to
save you personally?"
Derek smiled sarcastically, grabbed the phone from her hand, and strode away.
Meredith stood there, dumbfounded.
Was this really just a coincidence?
