The Good Girl's Revenge

The car rushed at a gallop and stopped at the entrance of the hospital.

The two of them got out of the car. Then they found the sickroom that Asher had told them and knocked on the door.

Chloe's weak voice came from inside the room, "Who is it?"

Jameson was also surprised by her current state, "It's me, and... Derek."

Chloe suddenly sat up from the bed. Although her emotions were already under control and her physical condition was fine, she insisted on staying in the hospital.

She had guessed that he would come to see her, driven by his own personality and Asher's request. Now he was finally here.

Chloe's hair was hanging down. Her lips were pale after she slightly pressed them together. With her fair skin, she looked a little delicate and charming in weakness.

It was just putting on a pitiful look. Meredith could make it. Couldn't Chloe do it?

After Derek and Jameson entered the sickroom, they all felt sorry for her when they saw Chloe sitting listlessly on the bed, completely different from her usual cheerful image.

The two of them had just sat down for a while when Asher came over. Asher sent Jameson away with an excuse.

He knew that Chloe just wanted to be alone with Derek.

When the others left, Chloe looked at Derek, who was sitting not far away, "Haven't seen you for a long time, Derek. I thought... I thought you wouldn't want to meet with me again.”

Derek shook his head, "No. How can I do that?"

Chloe lowered her head and smiled, "Don't worry. My disease is not serious now. I won't pester you."

Derek was a little uneasy when listening to her words that were not as natural as before. After all, they used to be close friends. Even if he had broken up with Chloe, he didn't want to hurt her. "What can I do for you?"

Since Derek did not seem to be particularly resistant to her, Chloe looked up, with a pleading look in her beautiful eyes, "Let me have a good sleep in your company, okay?"

"You see, I haven't fallen asleep for a long time. The doctor said that if the situation continued, I might suddenly die of staying up late.”

Chloe pitifully pointed to the dark circles under her eyes. Derek could not resist her, so he nodded and sat down beside the bed.

Although Derek was not very close to her, Chloe was already satisfied.

After Asher took Jameson out, Asher was silent with a darkened face. Looking at him, Jameson sighed, "How old are you? You've known each other for over ten years! How could you be at loggerheads with each other like this? Can you two not contact with each other anymore?"

Asher's face dropped. He had been socializing in the circle of powerful and wealthy families since he was young. Although he was used to pretending politeness and sincerity to others, he regarded Jameson and Derek as bosom buddies. They could confide in each other and help each other at any cost. How could he want to fall out with Derek?

He merely couldn't stand that Derek hurt Chloe for Meredith.

"Yang, it's a long story and I need your help."

Jameson raised his eyebrows, "Well, speak freely. When did you become so fussy?"

"You have learned about Chloe's current situation. We all know her. She hasn't experienced any setbacks since she was a child, and she has always valued her relationship with Derek. You have to help her. You can't let her be hurt by this."

Jameson was silent for a moment, "I'd like to help you, but I think that their relationship should depend on their own thoughts. We can't force Derek to accept Chloe just because we are more familiar with Chloe. Derek doesn’t love her. Even if they are forced to be together, will Chloe be happy then?"

Jameson's impression of Meredith was not that bad. In his view, Meredith was kind, sensible, and dauntless. Although she was of humble origins, it was okay as long as Derek loved her.

"No, no." Asher was a little emotional, "Chloe has the possibility of falling into depression now. At this time, I would rather see that she is supported by false happiness than let her mental health deteriorate. Yang, we all watched her grow up. Chloe is like our sister. Even if you don't have tenderness towards her, don't stop me from taking steps at least.”

The look in Asher's eyes was a little resolute. It seemed that he would break up with Jameson if Jameson didn't agree.

Looking at Asher's extreme nervousness, Jameson knew that Asher was so sensitive because of Chloe, so he could only nod. "Okay, I got it."

"I won't interfere with what you are going to do. However, I will definitely stop you if you plan to do something illegal.”

Asher's face softened a little, "Don't worry. I won't.”

There was no need to use illegal means to deal with Meredith.

Derek stayed with Chloe for a while. Although Chloe just begged him to sit beside the bed and see her sleeping, Chloe couldn't help but reach out and hold Derek's broad palm soon, gently caressing the palm print.

"Derek, will I become a lunatic? I'm so worried..."

When Derek heard her saying that, he couldn't leave her alone and didn't dare to let go of her hand. He felt a little more guilty. Perhaps, he was so cruel that Chloe fell into a mental state like this.

"No. You'll be fine."

Derek didn't take his hand back and said, "I'll get the best doctor to treat you. Be relaxed. Soon you will recover to the previous condition.”

Listening to Derek, Chloe felt much calmer. Holding Derek's hand, she gradually felt sleepy.

Asher came back from outside and saw this scene. He was bitter when he saw Chloe's clinging expression and quiet sleeping face, but he quickly suppressed his emotion. He sent Jameson away, who was about to come in. Then he took out his cell phone to take a picture.

On the screen, Derek was leaning on the bedside with a gentle expression, holding the hands of Chloe. The warm sunlight fell on the two of them, making the scene even sweeter.

No one would doubt that They were a perfect couple.

Without any hesitation, Asher sent the photo directly to Meredith. He had investigated her phone number before.

At the very least, that woman should understand who would match Derek better.

She was just a brazen criminal, a shameless “the other woman" between Derek and Chloe. Although this was anything but an aboveboard act for Asher, he was willing to do so for Chloe's wish. He was willing to degenerate into a despicable man for her...

It was good as long as the woman he loved could be happy.

Meredith was at home, staring blankly at the antenatal education book in her hand. She had sat for a long time, but she failed to read even a word.

The phone rang, and she picked it up to take a look. At the sight of the picture on the screen, she dropped the book in her hand unnaturally.
