The Good Girl's Revenge

Meredith thought a lot at that moment. Perhaps because she was about to face a desperate situation, she was very calm.

She was even thinking about whether Derek would be regretful if he knew that the baby in her belly was his and that he had killed his own child.

Derek clenched his fists as he watched Meredith closing her eyes in despair.

What Damian said just now changed his mind in an instant.

This time, the gangster was a psychopath. Usually, he liked to torture others with this boring choice, and he would definitely go against the choice.

Derek was also betting that the villains would not attack Meredith who was abandoned by him. Mr. Long smiled. Just as Meredith thought she was going to be thrown down, Nova screamed, "Derek, how could you be so heartless? For your own woman, you even dare to sacrifice a pregnant woman. You are such a hypocrite!”

As soon as she finished, Nova was pushed off the roof!

Meredith saw the whole thing. Her face turned pale and her legs were completely drained of strength.

Just now, she might be someone who was pushed off the roof.

While the group of people was distracted, Derek's ambush in the dark took action quickly.

A few anesthetic guns were shot by at high speed, and those who had just been complacent fell down one after another.

Meredith was so scared that she quickly fell to the ground, afraid of being shot. She laid on the edge of the roof and looked down at the situation.

Fortunately, Nova fell on the air cushion that Damian had arranged in advance, so there was no bloody tragedy.

Meredith heaved a sigh of relief, and then a sense of fear struck her after she survived. Her body and mind, which had been in a tense state, could not bear such a huge stimulation. Seeing that there was no danger at all, she blacked out.

Derek immediately went up to the top floor, and his cold eyes swept over the criminals. Uncertain whether they were alive or dead, he ordered, "Take them all back.”

Immediately, he strode towards Meredith, who was lying on the side. Seeing her motionless, Derek was a little flustered. He had not been flustered even when he was faced with the vital choice between Meredith and Nova.

He gently touched Meredith's shoulder, but she didn't respond. Derek had no time to care if she gave him a response and quickly picked her up from the ground. "Keep these people and ask if there is an accomplice.”

He would never allow this to happen again.

With that said, Derek carried Meredith in his arms and got into the car. Only then did he realize that Meredith was cold as ice. He thought she must have been exposed to cold winds since she was caught.

Derek carefully placed Meredith in the back seat of the car. Then he immediately took off his coat and put it on her. Then, the car quickly rushed to the hospital.

Meredith was sleeping soundly this time. In her coma, she seemed to feel someone holding her up. That person's arms were so warm and generous like she was surrounded by an ocean, giving her a sense of comfort.

Meredith and Nova were sent to the hospital at the same time.

Meredith was only a little frightened. She was already weak due to pregnancy, and she was exposed to cold winds for a long time. That was why she became unconscious now.

Nova, however, was more seriously injured.

Because she was thrown down in that position and her waist landed first, despite the protection, her vertebra was badly injured, which could cause serious sequelae.

Hearing the doctor's explanation, he was glad of his choice. At the same time, he felt a little guilty about Nova, who was still under treatment.

She was the one he had sacrificed.

Just as he was thinking, Damian walked in. "It's all settled, boss. These people have a few accomplices. We're tracking them. We'll be able to bring them to justice soon. This won't happen again.”

Derek nodded and his frown loosened a little. He looked in the direction of Meredith's ward. "How is she?"

Because Nova might be paralyzed, Derek had no time to keep an eye on Meredith.

"Miss Mason is awake. She seems to be in a stable mood now."

Derek nodded. "Get someone to take care of her. And, recently, arrange a few people to protect her."

Easton nodded and took the caregiver to Meredith's room.

Meredith was sitting in a daze on the bed when she heard the sound of the door opening. Seeing that it was Damian, a vague disappointment flashed through her heart. Then, she couldn't help but laugh at herself.

She asked herself, "Do you think Derek would come to see you?"

At that time, Derek gave up on her, let alone now?

"Boss wants you to have a good rest in the hospital. You don't have to take care of anything else. This person will take care of you 24 hours a day. You can call her if you need anything.”

Meredith nodded and thanked him politely.

Damian was so smart that he could tell that she was not in a good mood. He guessed that it was probably because of Derek's choice. He was about to explain it to her when suddenly, his phone rang.

It was the people who went out to check on the gangsters that got the news. Seeing this, Damian forgot what he was going to say and immediately walked out.

Now, resolving these possible threats was his top priority.

Seeing that Damian had left, Meredith felt a little tired. "You go out first. I want to be alone.”

The caregiver also went out, so Meredith was the only one in the huge ward. She looked out of the window for a while and couldn't help but caress her lower abdomen.

At first, she was relieved to learn that the child's father was Derek. At least, he was not a bad person. But now, what happened just now made Meredith very anxious.

What happened today made her realize that Derek was still the man who hated her guts. Even if she was pregnant, he would sacrifice her without hesitation.

If... If she told him the truth that the woman that day was her, what would be his reaction? Meredith didn't even dare to imagine what would happen. After all, although she behaved herself, in Derek's eyes, she was still an indulgent and ill-behaved woman.

If he wrongly believed she had seduced him on purpose that day, would he hurt the child directly? After all, the Xaviers was so honorable. If the Xaviers knew that a person like her had a descendant of the Xaviers, she might be in danger.

Perhaps, he would force her to get an abortion.

At the thought of this, Meredith felt a slight throbbing pain at the position of the. It seemed that the baby knew that its father might not like itself and was protesting against it.

Meredith's hand paused and she spoke to her slightly raised abdomen. "Don’t worry, mom will protect you."

She would never let Derek know about the baby's relationship with him or give him a chance to abort the baby.
