Chapter 555


    Meredith stared at Evelyn''s face for a long time, as if trying to find something simr to her mother''s.


    However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn''t find out any simrities.


    Perhaps, subconsciously, she felt that a gentle and strong mother''s biological daughter would not be so

    unruly and willful.


    Meredith thought for a moment, but in the end, she managed to suppress the uneasiness in her heart.


    "Then, what do you want?"


    Evelyn was not a nice and generous person. Meredith did not believe that she hade to her


    specifically to tell herself that she was willing to donate her bone marrow.


    Although the bone marrow aspiration would not destroy the body, it is very painful, and also would


    affect the immune system.


    With Evelyn''s arrogant personality, if she didn''t want something, Meredith didn''t believe that she would


    agree to donate.


    And the only thing she could trade with her was...


    A figure shed through his mind. Meredith''s heart sank and she looked over.


    "Miss Mason is indeed a smart woman. That''s great. I don''t like dealing with the stupid. As long as you


    agree with my request, I will immediately agree to donate the bone marrow until your mother is fully


    recovered."


    Evelyn said casually because she was not the one but Ellie who needed to do the bone marrow


    aspiration. Evelyn didn''t care about Ellie at all.


    "I want you to break up with Derek and let him get engaged with me."


    Evelyn said slowly.


    Meredith wanted to appear indifferent, but her expression and eyes showed her emotions.


    Even if she knew what her request was, she couldn''t help but feel irritated while hearing it.


    "Miss Smith, feelings don''t seem to be something that people can control."


    With Derek''s personality, who could force him if he didn''t want to?


    Meredith didn''t think she was capable of forcing him to marry a woman he didn''t like.


    "But that''s the only way I can rest assured. After all... Miss Mason said you wasn''t interested in Derek


    anymore, but you were with himst night, right?"


    Evelyn gnashed her teeth at the thought of Easton''s rude sarcasm on the phone today.


    She had never been insulted in her life, but now even a little brat could insult her.


    Meredith was his mother, so Evelyn naturally took it out on her.


    "How did you know..."


    Meredith frowned, only then did she realize that Evelyn had investigated her, or Derek.


    This feeling of being monitored made her feel ufortable.


    "Easton was sick yesterday. Derek sent us to the hospital. We were in the hospital. It wasn''t what you


    thought."


    "It doesn''t matter, but I don''t want this to happen again."


    Evelyn didn''t care if the child was sick or not. What she wanted was that Derek couldn''t be involved


    with other women.


    "That''s my condition. I''ll wait for your answer. I hope you''ll agree."


    After Evelyn finished speaking, she left. Meredith sat there alone, lost in her thought.


    She didn''t know how long she had been sat there alone. Until her cell phone rang, she came to her


    sense.


    Parker called her.


    "Mer, where are you now?"


    Just now, when he went to look for Meredith, he only found that Easton was ying video games in the


    room alone. He asked him where she was, but Easton didn''t know either.


    Parker waited for a long time, but she didn''t return. So he called her.


    "I''ll be right back."


    When Meredith spoke, she was startled by her own voice. Her voice was hoarse, and it didn''t sound


    right.


    "What''s wrong? What happened to you?"


    Parker sensed it and immediately became worried. "I''ll pick you up."


    She took a few deep breaths. "It''s okay, I''m fine."


    After that, she got up to pay the bill and walked out of the restaurant.


    As soon as she stepped out the door, a cool breeze blew in, making her shudder.


    Standing beside the road, she looked at the carsing and going. She was very tired and needed


    time to clear her mind.


    She then returned to the hotel by taxi.


    As soon as she got off the taxi, she saw Parker waiting outside.


    "You''ve been waiting for me here?"


    She felt guilty, and it was her fault for worrying him so much.


    "I''m afraid that something might happen to you, but you won''t tell me where you are. So I can only wait


    for you here."


    Parker looked at her helplessly. "What''s wrong? You look tired."


    "I found the matching bone marrow."


    He couldn''t help but look surprised. "Really?"


    But soon, he felt something was wrong.


    After all, it was a good thing, but Meredith looked very strange.


    "What''s wrong? Is that person unwilling to donate or something? You give me his information and I''ll


    talk to him."


    Parker immediately said, intending to find that man.


    No matter that man wanted money or status, he could give it to him as long as he cooperated.


    "No, it''s not like this..."


    She shook her head and noticed his anxiety. She was moved. "Let''s go back and I''ll tell you."


    She thought for a moment. There was no need to keep her secret from Parker. After all, he saved her


    life back then, and she now really didn''t know what to do.


    Meredith told him the whole story.


    "Parker, I haven''t told my mom about this yet. I''m afraid she''ll find it hard to ept. I want you to keep it


    a secret from her, too."


    Parker nodded and fell into deep thought. It turned out that Meredith was not her biological daughter,


    but was actually the granddaughter of Joseph?


    The point is, that Evelyn actually fell in love with Derek and even used her bone marrow to make


    Meredith agree to her request.


    Parker thought that maybe the god was helping him win Meredith back.


    But he couldn''t show his excitement. "So, what are you going to do?"


    Meredith remained silent for a while, then smiled bitterly. "Do you think I have other options?"


    Originally, it was because her biological mother had swapped out two children secretly that their lives


    had changed dramatically.


    Although Evelyn lived a good life now, Meredith still felt a little guilty for her. After all, ording to Andy,


    Evelyn took the possible risks for her.


    Her mother''s illness worsened. If she did not have a bone marrow transnt now, she might not have


    time to wait for the next matching bone marrow.


    Meredith thought about it and couldn''t help but feel dispirited.


    Perhaps, this was fate. Fate had made everything so wrong and made Cali fall in love with Derek.


    "I intend to agree to her request."
