    "I don''t need to exin it to you again. Take it out." Derek spoke impatiently.

    The man hesitated for a moment and finally walked out without saying a word.


    ...


    Ava was waiting for the news. She had a warm smile on her face all the time. She did not have any airs


    of a famous star. Soon, she was liked by everyone present.


    The smile on Ava''s face deepened as she looked at the group of people surrounding her. As long as


    she pretended to inadvertently reveal some information about Meredith''s past, these people would


    believe it without a doubt.


    Just thinking about the miserable condition of Meredith being kicked out of the house again, the


    minister came back and saw her. He was embarrassed. "I''m sorry, Miss Mason. Because the boss


    doesn''t think thepany needs a spokesperson, this cooperation can only be canceled. I''m sorry."


    Ava''s smile froze on her face and her voice rose by an octave all at once. "What? Minister Yang, you


    said this was ny percent sure!"


    Ava''s anxious expression was a little aggressive, which stunned everyone who had just regarded her


    as the goddess of tenderness.


    Immediately, Ava sensed that she had lost herposure and quickly held her anxiety back. "I''m sorry,


    I''m just a little anxious. But this matter has already been discussed a great majority of. Just let it go like


    this. Isn''t it a little..."


    "I''m sorry, but this is thepany''s decision, and there''s nothing I can do about it."


    After saying this, the people who had been busy around Ava also slowly dispersed. After all, it was


    working time now, and they were also very busy.


    Feeling the huge gap before and after this, Ava was very angry. However, she did not dare to show it to


    damage her image, so she could only hold it back forcefully. When she got out of the door of the Xavier


    Group and sat in the nanny van, she threw everything she could get at hand.


    "How could it be? Damn it, it must be Meredith behind this!"


    Because of anger, Ava''s beautiful face was twisted, not as dignified and elegant as usual at all, looking


    a little frightening.


    "Oh, don''t be angry. Look at your makeup, it is a little messed up." ra looked at her daughter''s angry


    face and tried to persuade her with patience and sincerity.


    "Is Derek crazy? Doesn''t he hate Meredith for making him turn into a vegetable for three years? Or..."


    "Did he know something?"


    This thought startled Ava and her mother.


    If Derek really knew that the person who hit him that time wasn''t Meredith, but Ava, then what awaited


    her would be a terrible consequence.


    "Mom, what should I do? If Meredith has persuaded Derek, then I..." Ava looked at ra in a panic.


    "No way, no one would believe it even if Meredith said it. She had admitted it in court that year. What


    evidence does she have to prove her innocence?"


    The mother and daughter exchanged a few words offort. Ava took out her phone and called


    Meredith, only to find that she had been put on the cklist.


    "This damn bitch, she has put on airs."


    Ava discontentedly changed the number and called. Meredith picked it up, but her voice was a little


    weak.


    Having just been rejected and contradicted Derek, Meredith''s mood dropped to the bottom. When she


    received the call, it was Ava again?


    "What exactly do you want? Is it endless?" Meredith was toozy to act with her and asked with no


    good tone.


    "I was just going to ask you, Meredith, what kind of coquettish trick did you use, or you were so good in


    bed that you fascinated Derek and made him reject my endorsement deal with the Xavier Group?"


    "Reject your endorsement deal?" Meredith was confused, but Ava would never joke about it, so...


    Did Derek help her?


    An inexplicable feeling welled up from her chest, which made Meredith''s mood, which had just been


    exceptionally low, felt much better.


    "I''m sorry, but what the boss does is his business. I don''t have that much right. How do you know that it


    was your own ipetence that is being despised?"


    Meredith said straightly with confidence and hung up immediately.


    Ava was so angry on the other side of the phone that she almost didn''t catch up the breath, but


    Meredith was deep in thought.


    Derek helped her, and Meredith felt unreal. Was it a coincidence or...


    With this in mind, Meredith couldn''t help but be tangled for a moment. After a while, Derek came out of


    the office. "I''m going out to talk about some things this afternoon. You clean the office thoroughly."


    Meredith stood up. "Got it."


    Seeing that Derek didn''t say anything to her, she couldn''t help but ask, "Well, it was you that ask the


    Derek paused in his footsteps, looking slightly annoyed.


    Just now, that sentence was simply blurted out. When he realized it, he found that he had already


    made such a decision because of Meredith which was not like his decision.


    "Don''t tter yourself. Refuse, just because I don''t like thepany being tied up with the image of a


    female star, that''s all."


    Derek''s cold voice reached her ears. Meredith was a little disappointed, but she couldn''t tell where the


    disappointment came from.


    "Thank you anyway."


    Meredith thanked him and went in with the tools to clean up. Derek looked at her back and remained


    silent for a moment before leaving with Damian.


    While Damian was passing by Meredith, he gave her a deep look.


    Others didn''t know, but he knew that the boss had rejected Ava just now because of Meredith


    obviously.


    Could it be that boss was unusually serious with this woman? Even to the extent that it could affect his


    decision?
