To reassure Meredith, Terrence Sterling had to tell the truth: “Justin fell from the rooftop of the CC Clubst night. He didn’t make it. Liam Michaelson is investigating the case. Preliminary judgment suggests it wasn’t an ident. The suspect has been caught.”


    “Suspect?” Meredith tried to sit up, but the pain from her wound made her gasp. “Who could Justin have offended? Who would want to kill him? What kind of grudge would lead to this?”


    “Meredith, don’t get agitated,” Terrence Sterlingforted her. “Justin was investigating Fiona Woods’ death. The suspect, Derek Donnelly, had contact with Fiona Woods before. I suspect Justin went to the CC Club because of Derek Donnelly and was then harmed.”


    “Why was he investigating Fiona’s case? There are police for that. He was just awyer. Why did he have to do something so dangerous?” Meredith felt deeply distressed, tears streaming down her face. “Justin was soft-hearted. No matter how others treated him, he was always the first to step up when something happened. I shouldn’t have said those things to him before. Maybe then he wouldn’t have ignored me, wouldn’t have gone alone and taken such risks.”


    Meredith regretted it deeply. She knew Justin was troubled by Fiona Woods’ death. Why hadn’t she been more attentive? Why hadn’t she persuaded Justin?


    Maybe this tragedy wouldn’t have happened.


    “Meredith, this isn’t your fault. Don’t me yourself,” Terrence Sterling held her hand tightly, looking at her deeply. “You just had a baby. You can’t cry like this. What’s done is done. What we can do now is find the culprit and let Justin rest in peace.”


    Meredith’s tears never stopped. She stared at the ceiling and said, “Terrence Sterling, everyone close to me is leaving me one by one.”


    Terrence Sterling could feel her sorrow. Bianca’s death had already shaken Meredith, and now Justin’s incident was another heavy blow.


    Terrence Sterling stayed by her side constantly, trying to pull her out of her grief.


    Not long after Meredith gave birth, Azure and Reese came to visit.


    Seeing familiar faces and feeling the concern of friends, Meredith felt her sorrow slightly alleviated.


    Azure wanted to hold the baby, but Ste seemed reluctant, so Azure didn’t insist.


    Ste’s care for Meredith’s child indicated Meredith’s status in the Sterling family.


    After staying for a while, Azure left the hospital, with Gordon Guzman waiting for her at the door.


    Seeing here out, Gordon Guzman approached, “Azure, leaving already?”


    “Yes,” Azure replied. “Meredith is really lucky. I used to think Terrence Sterling couldn’t love anyone or know how to treat someone well. I thought he was just cold. But he has a gentle side. He fed Meredith himself, changed her pads, washed her face and hands, and carefully tested the baby’s milk temperature.”


    These were things only someone in love would do.


    Even though there were people in the hospital to do these tasks, Terrence Sterling chose to take care of them himself.


    Gordon Guzman said, “Azure, look back. You can have such a rtionship too.”


    Azure looked back at him, understanding his meaning.


    But love requires mutual feelings. If not, it feelspletely different.


    “Let’s go,” Azure didn’t answer directly.


    As they walked out of the hospital doors, Azure ran into Harvey Fieldmouse who hade to visit.


    “Azure, what a coincidence,” Harvey Fieldmouse greeted her. “Have you seen Meredith? What did she have?”


    “I just saw her. She had a daughter,” Azure said. “You should go up and see her. I’m heading back to the studio.”


    Azure didn’t say much more and left with Gordon Guzman.


    Harvey Fieldmouse sighed. Azure was excellent-beautiful and young, with no shortage of suitors. If Terrence Sterling hadn’t married Meredith, maybe Azure would have be Mrs. Sterling.


    Harvey Fieldmouse was lucky to run into Azure and then encountered Joy Chaucering out of the adjacent elevator.


    “Joy Chaucer? What are you doing here? You’re not here to see Meredith, are you?” Harvey Fieldmouse was very wary. “Are you up to no good again?”


    Harvey Fieldmouse despised Joy Chaucer. She had tried to harm Meredith multiple times and had almost caused harm to Meredith’s unborn baby before.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    He didn’t believe Joy Chaucer would be kind enough to visit Meredith.
