Chapter 161


    The two waited outside for a long time until everything inside was over.


    "You wait outside." Derek signalled Meredith not to go in. Leo must be very emotional. If he said


    something malicious to her, it would affect her mood.


    "No, I''m fine. I want to see the retribution he suffered." Meredith did not flinch at all. She was happy to


    see Leo being miserable.


    After all, she was not an easily-forgiving person. After being humiliated again and again by him, she


    would hold grudges against him.


    "Well, if you don''t feel well, then you can leave."


    Derek felt that the woman in front of him was stronger than he had imagined. Perhaps she had seen


    too much of the hideousness of human nature and was no longer so sensitive to it.


    Thinking of this, he felt a little more distressed. He grabbed Meredith''s shoulders and walked in with


    her.


    The room was cleaned up and there were no obvious signs that could tell others what had just


    happened. Leoy on the ground, panting like a dying dog. The medicine had worn off and he felt pain


    all over his body.


    What made him most angry was that everything had been recorded by a camera.


    He would never let that be spread out, or else his life would be totally ruined.


    "Meredith... You wicked woman."


    Hearing Leo''s weak scolding, Meredith suddenly felt very delighted.


    There was a time when he was so superior that he stepped on her again and again. He certainly did


    not expect such a day toe.


    "The person who does evil deeds is doomed to destruction. Leo, you deserve it."


    Meredith nced at him. "I have the video of you having sex with a beggar. If you don''t want it to be


    seen, do as I say. Otherwise, I don''t mind making you famous online."


    Leo shivered. He wanted to scold Meredith for being shameless, but he didn''t dare.


    If that video was sent out, his life would be over.


    "What do you want me to do? Will you promise to bring me the original video tape after I do as you


    say?"


    Meredith nodded. She didn''t want to keep such a disgusting video.


    "First, find out the evidence that could prove that the Masons framed me. Second, tell me where my


    mother is. I''ll give you a week!"


    Meredith was a little more excited. Finally, she saw a glimmer of dawn. She had waited for this day for


    too long!


    "Okay, I promise you, but when it''s over, you have to destroy the video as promised. Otherwise, I won''t


    let you go even if I have to get into a life-and-death struggle with you."


    "It depends on your ability."


    Meredith took two steps back. Derek gave Leo a cold look. Someone came in and let Leo out.


    "Don''t worry, with this as a threat, he won''t dare to withhold any information."


    Derek saidfortingly when he saw that Meredith was pondering.


    He knew she was anxious, but they had to be patient with this kind of thing.


    "I know." Meredith lowered her head. Her mood was reallyplicated.


    She had been living with the charge for three years. She finally had a chance to clear her name. She


    finally had a chance to see her mother. How could she not be excited?


    Derek looked at Meredith and was about to say something, but his phone suddenly rang.


    "Derek, I''m really disappointed in you!"


    Mr. Xavier''s loud voice was heard. His anger could no longer be concealed.


    Originally, the Old Master was in a good mood at home during the day. Unexpectedly, Violet saw the


    photo circted on the inte and let the Old Master see it. Itpletely ruined his good mood for the


    day.


    In that photo, Derek looked at a woman tenderly and affectionately. How could the Old Master not be


    familiar with that woman? It was the woman he had personally found to bring good luck to his precious


    grandson - Meredith!


    "Grandpa?" Derek was confused, but he subconsciously felt that this matter might have something to


    do with Meredith. Therefore, he opened the door and signalled Meredith to go in the car.


    Meredith was puzzled, but she still obediently sat in. She knew who was calling as soon as she heard


    the voiceing from the phone. It was Grandpa Xavier.


    However, Meredith had never heard the Old Master speak in such an angry tone before.


    Was it rted to her?


    Meredith sat in the car, feeling a little more distressed. But she could only see that Derek was talking.


    She wanted to hear what he was saying but she couldn''t hear it clearly.


    "The whole world has seen the picture of you and Meredith. Take care of this yourself. Come back


    tonight. I have something to tell you."

    The Old Master did not listen to Derek at all. The thought of his grandson, whom he had always valued,


    getting involved with a woman like that made his chest have a choking sensation.


    Maybe he shouldn''t have been so superstitious back then. He shouldn''t have gotten her back to give


    her the chance to seduce Derek.


    The Old Master was tortured by regret and anger. He coughed a few times. Derek could notice his pain


    and he felt a little anxious. He quicklyforted him. "Grandpa, this is not as serious as you think. I''ll


    exin it to you when I get back tonight."


    "You''d better give me a reasonable exnation. Otherwise, I''m afraid I''ll be furious with you."


    When he hung up the phone, Derek frowned and couldn''t help rubbing his aching brows.


    He had never let the Xaviers know about his rtionship with Meredith, because it was obvious that


    they would definitely object to it strongly. But he did not expect this day toe so soon.


    But what about the information on the Inte that grandpa mentioned?


    Derek turned on his phone and searched for information. Soon he saw the news. It was a picture taken


    secretly by someone unknown. The picture showed him opening the car door and talking to Meredith.


    The two of them seemed very close at first sight, and their intimate rtionship was self-evident.


    Because the picture was very eye-catching and the people who posted it on Twitter (the Chinese


    version of Twitter) added a hashtag with high viewership, this photo went viral soon. Many people were


    wondering if Derek finally had a girlfriend. It was said that he always kept himself away from women.


    But that may not be the case.


    Derek was so angry that he immediately called Damian, asking him to get rid of these things as soon


    as possible.


    As Meredith sat in the car and idly swiped her phone, she also found out about the news. As soon as


    the photo appeared, she immediately understood what had happened.


    Maybe the Xaviers saw the news and didn''t want Derek to get involved with her. That was why they


    were so angry.


    Just as she was thinking about it, Derek opened the car door. He stopped acting so coldly and looked


    at Meredith as if nothing had happened. Then, suddenly, he leaned over and covered her with his


    whole body.


    Meredith was startled, but she didn''t move. He didn''t do anything. He just moved his fingers slightly and


    fastened the seat belt she had forgotten to fasten.


    Meredith heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the man''s face that was so close to her. "Did the Xaviers


    know about us?"
