Chapter 236


    Meredith looked at Damian in disbelief.


    He said that Derek was getting engaged...


    This news, even though she had epted the reality of the breakup, was still shocking.


    "No... I... I said the wrong thing." Damian was shocked. It wasn''t because of this. Did he say something


    he shouldn''t have said?


    "What the hell is going on? Tell me!" Meredith didn''t care about what was in her hand. She grabbed


    Damian''s cor and shook it.


    However, a few images suddenly came to her mind. The information that Damian had mentioned about


    the wedding on the phone, and Derek''s slightly strange speech...


    She had never thought about them carefully before, but now she realized that they were all clues to the


    truth.


    Derek was getting engaged, so he told her to wait for him abroad and arranged for her mother there.


    She had unknowingly be a mistress of Derek... The funny thing was that she once thought of this


    shameful rtionship as love, full of longing.


    Huh! How could she be so stupid?


    "Miss Mason, this is not the case..." Damian certainly knew the inside story. It was Violet who


    threatened Derek to agree to the engagement with her life.

    In the end, it was not Derek''s will.


    "Stop it, stop it..." Meredith smiled, but the smile on her face was even uglier than crying.


    No wonder Derek gave her those items from the Masons. It turned out to be a littlepensation for


    ying with her.


    Meredith felt unbearable pain in her head, which seemed to be about to explode. This shock and anger


    even made her stomach ache.


    Looking at Meredith''s face getting paler and paler, Damian was startled, "What''s wrong with you? Are


    you not feeling well?"


    Clutching her stomach, Meredith was in so much pain that she could not speak. In her heart, there was


    only endless regret. She should have recognized the reality earlier. Until now did she knew that the


    child in her stomach was about to be a disgraceful and illegitimate child.


    Derek, how could he be so cruel? Not only did he make her a disgraceful woman, but even the unborn


    child would bear a terrible reputation in the future.


    "I... I''ll take you to the hospital right away!" Damian panicked, fearing that something might happen to


    Meredith. He quickly picked her up, got in the car, and started driving towards the hospital.


    Derek unknowingly drove the car back to the vi and found himself back here. When he was a little


    angry about it, he saw Meredith being carried out of the house by Damian.


    Damian''s expression gave him an ominous feeling. Derek immediately rushed over, "What''s wrong?


    What happened?"


    "Miss Mason doesn''t seem to be feeling well. She has to go to the hospital as soon as possible!"


    Damian quickly handed Meredith over to Derek and climbed into the driver''s seat.


    Derek looked at Meredith''s pale face. After such a short time, the hair on her forehead had been


    soaked with cold sweat. Obviously, she was suffering quite a lot.


    Derek suddenly felt that his anger or other emotions had dissipated. Now, he didn''t want to think about


    anything except how to make Meredith feel better.


    In the face of life and death, anything else was of little importance.


    Meredith opened her eyes in extreme pain and saw Derek''s side face. He carried her into the car in a


    light movement. His eyes were full of anxiety and panic.


    Would Derek panic because of her?


    Meredith was in a daze for a moment. Maybe she was dreaming. How could Derek care about the life


    of a ything?


    She widened her eyes, trying to see the person in front of her, but she couldn''t hold on and fainted in


    the end.


    ...


    In the hospital.


    Meredith was sent to the hospital, and the long-prepared doctor immediately began the treatment.


    Derek put her onto the bed, and then Meredith was pushed into the emergency room.


    He sat outside, looking at the lights off and on. His eyes were filled with worry and remorse.


    He had never thought of such a situation.


    Was something going to happen to Meredith?


    At the thought of this possibility, Derek was almost out of breath. He couldn''t bear it if she had an


    ident!


    After some time, the lights in the emergency room finally went out.


    The doctor came out and wiped the sweat off his face, "The patient''s condition is not very good. She is


    pregnant and in a bad mood. If she continues to be stimted, the baby in her stomach will be


    premature."


    "What?" Derek looked at the woman who was still unconscious on the hospital bed. His heart ached at


    the thought that she was nearly dying.


    "She has to rest from now on. Otherwise, her situation is grim."


    After speaking that, the doctor left. Meredith was pushed out and sent to the intensive care unit.


    Derek held her cold hand, not knowing what to say.


    He stared at Meredith''s bloodless face without blinking, afraid that he would miss even a second.


    Just then, his phone rang, but Derek turned it off without thinking.


    At this moment, he realized how precious the time he spent with Meredith was. Especially now, he


    didn''t want anything to disturb them.


    When Mr. Xavier heard that Derek''s phone was off, he frowned. The engagement ceremony was three


    dayster, but this brat was still abroad and didn''t want toe back.


    Did he go to Meredith again?


    Thinking of this, Mr. Xavier became more and more agitated. He called the person with whom he rarely


    contacted.


    Nn, who was working on thetest drug in theb, was disturbed by the call and frowned. The


    mouse in his hand swallowed because of his light movement, but it seemed that he didn''t notice it. He


    just threw it out indifferently.


    Walking out of theb, Nn saw that the call was from Mr. Xavier and answered it.


    In those years, Mr. Xavier left home alone to carve out a career. He had experienced a lot of hardships


    that ordinary people could not know. Once he identally saved the incumbent head of the Leslies


    then.


    the Leslies was very mysterious. Although this family was not a giant with a huge business, it had very


    strong control over medicine.


    On the one hand, they were able to develop the world''s best medicine for treating diseases. On the


    other hand, they could also produce the most terrifying poison.


    Therefore, the Leslies usually had two very contradictory identities: One was the doctor who could


    bring the dying back to life, and the other was the invisible killer. In the underground market, it was


    often priceless to hire them to perform a task. Besides, they were not hired by the average person at


    all.


    It was because of his favor to the Leslies in the past that Mr. Xavier could decide to ask the Leslies to


    help solve the problem between Meredith and Derek.
