The Good Girl's Revenge

Amelia was shocked. She didn't understand why Derek did this.

"Derek, what's the point of doing this?"

Derek did not say anything. He placed the flowers in front of the tombstone with his expression unpredictable.

Amelia turned very angry suddenly. "She's gone. When she's alive, why don't you treat her well? Instead, you hurt her and make her sad. Now she's dead, you're suddenly in love. Such a good actor you are!"

"So that's what you think..."

Derek laughed when heard Amelia's question.

She was right.

Totally.

If he had not hesitated; if he had sent a few more people to protect her; if he had found the uninhabited island where Meredith was, she would not have died now.

He deserved the result. It was all his own fault.

"So I can only accept the reality. If she hates me, come to me and let me pay.”

The man's words drifted in the wind, making people feel a little cold.

Amelia's lips moved. She felt that Derek was different from what she had imagined.

But she wouldn't risk Meredith.

"Let me see... The child."

Amelia said and took Easton from Derek's arms.

Although he was not one month old yet, under the care of the Xaviers, he had grown up in good condition, and he was such a good boy. He was held by a person he had never met before, and he did not cry or make a scene. Instead, he stared at her with wide eyes with curiosity.

This was her grandson...

Amelia suddenly wanted to cry. She knew how much Meredith had done to give birth to this child. Now that she was holding him in her arms, she had the urge to take him away.

She knew Meredith had some symptoms of postpartum depression because she could not be with the child. If she could bring the child over...

"Derek, can you let me take the child back..."

"No."

Derek refused decisively.

Now, Easton was the only link that could connect him and Meredith. Without the child, he would go crazy.

Amelia was not surprised by the rejection. She made a decision in her heart, "Then I can come and see him more in the future? Or, you can send him to be with me for a while and then pick him up.” "It depends.”

Derek couldn't let anything happen to the child, so he didn't say yes. "But if you want to pay a visit, anytime.”

Amelia sighed inwardly, her heart in a mess.

She thought she could take this opportunity to bring the child to Meredith. If possible, it would be worth risking her life.

However, Derek's vigilance prevented her from doing this.

The two of them stood there for a long time with different ideas in their minds. Finally, Derek put out the cigarette in his hand. "It's getting late. I have to take him back.”

Amelia nodded reluctantly.

After being sent home, Amelia called Meredith.

Meredith was now in bed, and although she had been receiving psychological counseling, it still could not make up for the pain of a mother losing her child.

She was much slimmer than before and looked very haggard.

"Mom, how's it going? That man... Didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Meredith said faintly. As for Derek, she... Didn't even want to mention his name.

It would be better to never remember this man.

"I'm fine. No matter what, he won't do anything to an old woman like me.”

Amelia hesitated for a moment. "I saw the baby today.”

Meredith's hand clenched her phone, breathing heavily, and her pupils narrowed. "What did you say? My baby?"

"Is he okay? Does the Xaviers treat him okay?"

Meredith couldn't help but shedding tears. From the day the baby was born, she never stopped thinking about him.

However, she never had the chance to meet the baby, nor could she give him a hug and warmth She was even a little flustered when she heard about him all of a sudden.

"He's fine. The Xaviers takes good care of him. His name is Easton.”

Easton...

Meredith murmured that name softly. It was a beautiful name. In Chinese culture, his name Easton means safe and stable. If only this child could live such a good life in the future.

No need for him to achieve something; no need for him to inherit the huge fortune of the Xaviers, as long as he was safe and sound...

"He's fine. Then that's good... Very good..."

Meredith could not help but read it. The excitement of the moment made her cough suddenly, and once she started coughing, it was difficult to stop.

Now she was so fragile to this point.

"Meredith, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Amelia's heart ached at her painful voice.

Meredith wanted to reply, but the oppression in her chest was so strong that at the same time, a wave of dizziness came...

With a bang, the phone fell to the ground.

"Mer!"
