Chapter 96


    Derek pondered for a moment. He didn''t like to be involved in anything personal in thepany.


    In particr, the rtionship between Nova and him was a little awkward.


    "I really just want a job. Back then, you... You promised."


    Nova spoke with grievance when she noticed that the man did not immediately agree.


    "I see. Damian will contact youter." After that, Derek hung up.


    Derek always felt it beneath his dignity to go back on his word, so he called Damian over. "Go make


    some arrangements for that woman named Nova and give her an unimportant job."


    Damian nodded and quickly settled the matter.


    Nova was soon assigned to the personnel A Departments an intern.


    ...


    In the afternoon, Meredith went to the personnel department to send a document. As soon as she


    entered, Nova who had been cking off immediately saw her.


    Nova was startled. When Meredith finished her work and walked out, Nova quickly dragged her to a


    ce where no one was around.


    Meredith was also a little surprised. In the morning, she thought she was mistaken, but it was really


    Nova.


    "Why are you here?" Nova asked anxiously.


    She now knew very well that the reason why Derek was so impressed by her was that he thought of


    her as the woman who had sex with him that day.


    Nova also knew that the woman that day was Meredith.


    So, seeing her, Nova panicked.


    Meredith frowned. She was always here. She couldn''t believe that Nova worked in the Xavier Group


    now. The world was too small.


    "I''ve been working here. Did you apply for the job?"


    Nova nodded repeatedly. She wanted to ask Meredith if she knew what happened with Derek that day,


    but she was afraid that she would hurt herself by reminding Meredith. Her face turned red.


    "What''s wrong with you? Just say what you want."


    Meredith noticed something was wrong with her and she asked.


    "You... What exactly did you do that day? The room was so messy. You almost got me into serious


    trouble."


    Hearing this, Meredith''s face turned pale. After so many days, she thought she could forget everything


    that happened that day. However, when she was suddenly reminded of this, she trembled.


    Dark memories came, making it hard for her to breathe.


    "Only you and I know what happened that day. Don''t mention it again!"


    Nova wished that she wouldn''t have to mention it again, so she nodded. "Then you must keep it a


    secret. If anyone finds out, I''m done."


    Meredith nodded, not thinking much. She just thought that Nova might be more timid and afraid of


    causing trouble.


    With Meredith''s assurance, Nova felt a little relieved, mainly because she was sure that Meredith didn''t


    know who the man was that day.

    If Meredith had known that she had slept with Derek, how could she have been so scared? She would


    have been happy. Therefore, the only one who knew the truth now was Nova.


    Thinking about it, Nova had a confident smile on her face. It didn''t matter that the person wasn''t her


    that night. As long as she could have sex with Derek again and have a baby, all problems would be


    solved.


    ...


    After Meredith stayed at thepany for a few days, she finally couldn''t bear it.


    Derek said he wanted her toe back andplete the handover of the work, but she didn''t have


    the chance to do it. She still did unimportant things every day.


    Even though she could still get her sry, she felt uneasy around a time bomb like Derek.


    "Derek, when can I leave thepany?"


    Meredith couldn''t help but ask him one time when she was delivering coffee to Derek.


    "Why do you want to leave so badly?" Derek sipped the coffee that she made for him slowly, his eyes


    darkening.


    If she left, she would be with Parker day and night. Derek wasn''t that stupid, so he wouldn''t let her go


    no matter what.


    "What''s the point of me being here? Don''t you feel upset when you see me?" Meredith was helpless.


    Derek clearly hated her, and he hated the child in her womb even more. If the child grew up, it would be


    obvious. Who knew what would happen then?


    "As I said, you can only leave when the handover is done and I am satisfied. Do you want your


    dereliction of duty to be added to your resume?"


    Hearing what he said, Meredith had no choice but to walk out disappointedly.


    ...


    With a sheet in her hand, Nova couldn''t help but walk out of the elevator excitedly.


    Before she came to thepany, she had undone the top three buttons on her uniform on purpose,


    with her plump and snow-white bosom half-exposed. Her short skirt could only cover her buttocks. She


    looked seductive.


    She had been in the Xavier Group for a while, but she didn''t get a chance to get close to Derek, let


    alone cultivate a rtionship with him.


    Today, the personnel department was going to send documents to the top floor. It was rare for her to


    have a face-to-face meeting with Derek, so she quickly took the job.


    This time, she must seed in one fell swoop.


    "Meredith? Why are you on the top floor?" Surprisingly, she saw Meredith and immediately had an


    ominous feeling.


    The top floor was Derek''s territory. Normally, no one woulde up here.


    "I''m cleaning up here."


    As Meredith spoke, Nova nced at the broom in her hand, feeling disdainful.


    It turned out that she was just a cleaner. No wonder she was acting so strangely.


    "Is Mr. Xavier here? I want to send him a document."


    Meredith pointed to the office. Nova thanked her arrogantly and walked over with her waist twisting.


    Meredith looked at the way she dressed and frowned. Was she trying to seduce Derek by dressing like


    that?


    In the Xavier Group, there were many people who wanted to have a romantic love story with Derek, but


    no one had ever dared to do it in such a high-profile way.


    With Derek''s temper, if he was provoked, he would only force out the one who provoked him.


    Thinking that they knew each other, Meredith followed her, intending to remind her not to ask for


    trouble. But by the time she tried to catch up with her, Nova had already entered Derek''s office.


    As soon as Nova entered, she saw the man leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed. He was


    rubbing his temples.


    Even though half of his face was covered by his hand, Derek was still the man who looked extremely


    charming to women, especially when he frowned. When he was like this, he looked less indifferent and


    more real than usual.


    Nova could not help but lighten her footsteps and walk over to help him rub his forehead.


    Nova had learned some massage techniques before, so she could massage him with moderate


    strength. Derek''s headache caused by fatigue was relieved a lot, and his expression was less cold and


    indifferent.


    Meredith looked at such a harmonious scene, and she could not tell how she felt.


    It turned out that Derek liked this kind of woman who would observe his expressions and serve him


    carefully.


    Meredith sensed her inexplicable emotions and shook her head. Nova was quite impressive. It seemed


    that Meredith didn''t need to worry about her.


    With such a sweet girl around, perhaps Derek would let her go soon.


    Thinking about it, Meredith left.
