Chapter 288


    Leave?


    Was she still thinking of leaving with another man as she was in his arms now?


    Derek was suddenly annoyed. Listening to Parker''s voice outside, he smiled coldly. His handsome face


    had a chilling curve.


    Meredith immediately had an ominous feeling.


    She wanted to speak and call for help. But Derek suddenly kissed her, making her unable to speak.


    Meredith''s struggling hands were forcefully held by him. At this moment, Derek ignored the strong


    resistance of the woman, regardless of what she was feeling. There was only one crazy thought in his


    head. And that was to punish this damn woman in his own way.


    She shall be left with his own mark, so she could no longer think about other men.


    Meredith felt that she was unable to speak and her mind went nk, forgetting how to react.


    Derek, on the other hand, felt his blood boil. The first time he saw this woman, he never thought of


    letting her go again. She was his own thing.


    While Parker''s voice just now and her refusal stimted his impulse.


    Derek''s overbearing kiss was a thing that Meredith waspletely unable to resist. And to Xavier, he


    didn''t care about her resistance.


    Meredith wanted to speak, but she felt like she was running out of oxygen.


    Outside the door, Parker was anxious.


    Why didn''t Meredith answer him?


    Wasn''t she inside?


    It was impossible. He saw her return to this room with his own eyes.

    An uneasy thought lingered on Parker''s mind, and he began to knock hard on the door.


    But there was no response.


    "Meredith, what''s wrong with you? Say something. Don''t scare me!"


    Hearing Parker''s trembling voice, Derek felt a strong sense of revenge. Parker thought that he could


    take this woman away from Xavier?


    Daydreaming...


    "He''s looking for you..." Derek kindly let go of Meredith and whispered in her ear. The hot and humid air


    made Meredith shrink.


    "What do you think I would do if he took you away by force now?"


    Derek''s hand began to wander restlessly around her body. He even put his hands into her clothes


    suddenly...


    Meredith froze in fear.


    When she saw the desire in Derek''s eyes, she couldn''t help but be afraid. But what he said just now


    made her have fear.


    Parker had given up his domestic business for her, and now he couldn''tpete with Derek.


    If Derek was determined to make things difficult for Parker, then Parker would definitely fight with him.


    By then, Parker would be the only one injured.


    Her thoughts were suddenly in a mess.


    Derek, on the other hand, did not feel happy when he saw her struggling and being in pain. Instead, he


    felt that his chest was stifling.


    She was worried about that man. A man who was other than him.


    Meredith suddenly became very scared. How could he do such a thing...


    But at this moment, Meredith seemed to have no strength to resist. Originally, her body was rtively


    weak and now she was controlled by Derek. She seemed to be unable to do anything.


    "Meredith, Meredith!"


    Parker was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. "Wait for me. I''ll get someone to open the door."


    Hearing Parker''s words, Meredith''s eyes widened in fear. She didn''t want to be seen like this.


    She was now embarrassed and she felt shameful. It would be better for her to die if someone saw her


    being like this.


    "Derek, how long do you have to keep humiliating me so that you could be satisfied?"


    Words that were filled with hatred were spat out of her mouth in a trembling way.


    Derek''s movements paused. The impulse that had just upied his mind cooled down.


    He saw Meredith who was ring at him as she couldn''t stop the tears from falling. Her stubborn look


    was heartbreaking.


    As he stopped moving, Derek suddenly felt that he might be a jerk. Even if he met her again after a


    long time, it seemed that...he was still hurting her.


    Derek withdrew from her lips. Derek looked at the tears on her face. Those beautiful eyes, which had


    been soaked in tears, looked more and more clear now. It made a man unbearable to hurt so as to


    avoid making it show the pain.


    "I''m sorry..."


    Derek apologized subconsciously and he reached his hand out, trying to wipe the tears off Meredith''s


    face.


    Meredith was stunned when she heard his apology, but she soon came back to her senses.


    What happened between them could not be erased by a light apology.


    Even when Meredith saw the guilt in his eyes, her anger and hatred towards Derek did not diminish.


    Just as the two of them were at a loss for words, Parker got the room card from the staff.


    Beep-beep


    The door was opened, and Derek pulled Meredith back so as to avoid making her get hurt by the door


    which was pushed open.


    Parker immediately saw Derek. Xavier was always noticed by everyone at the first nce.


    He narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. "What are you doing here?"


    "What am I doing? I''m here to bring Meredith back of course."


    Derek stood in front of Meredith, but when Meredith saw Parker appear, she immediately ran away


    from Xavier.


    Parker quickly shielded her. "Get out of here first. The driver is waiting downstairs. You go to the airport


    first!"


    In the current situation, if she didn''t leave now, she might not be able to leaveter.


    "But... Are you okay to be here?"


    Meredith looked at Derek''s dangerous eyes. She knew that it was a sign that Derek was angered.


    She was worried that something would happen to Parker since he was trying to protect her. If


    something happened to him, she would have to feel guilty for the rest of her life.


    "Don''t worry, he can''t do anything to me."


    "Let''s go."


    Parker said so, but he didn''t have any confidence at all.


    He didn''t have much confidence when he was confronting Derek, but the only thing he could do was to


    send Meredith away first. Otherwise, the situation would only get worse for him.


    "I see."


    Meredith saw the anxiety in Parker''s eyes. She understood that she could not continue to dawdle, and


    she immediately turned to leave.


    Derek watched coldly as the two of them chattered in front of him andpletely treated him as air.


    This made him very unhappy. It was as if he was isted from Meredith''s world.


    Seeing that Meredith was leaving, Derek wanted to catch up with her. But Parker stopped him. "If you


    have anything to say, tell me. But you can''t disturb her any longer in the future. You can''t disturb her


    even a tiny bit!"


    Derek sneered. He was a few centimeters taller than Parker, so he was even more imposing. Looking


    at the man in front of him, Xavier said, "Do you think you have any right to speak to me like that? Or do


    you think you have be an important person to her as you yed some tricks and hid her?"


    Parker did not step back. He looked at Xavier''s face. "I don''t think I mean much to her, but at least, I


    won''t hurt her and let her suffer so much in that ce alone!"
