The Good Girl's Revenge

Looking up, he saw the bath towel on the shelf. He immediately took it off and shook it out, quickly covering Nora's body.

Nora tilted her head, revealing her red earlobes. Her fair fingers gripped the edge of the bath towel tightly. She wished she could faint right away while her fingertips were whiting and her wrists were trembling.

Derek coughed softly, "I'll carry you out.”

He waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that she had not said anything, he thought that she agreed. He immediately bent down and picked her up. When his arms touched her soft skin, his heart couldn't help mess up.

Nora's body was as stiff as a slab stone. As soon as she got close to the bed, she immediately rolled herself up with the quilt and buried her head deeply in it, motionless.

Seeing this, he didn't know what to say. He hesitated and said, "Don't worry, I didn't see anything.” After saying that, he regretted it. In that instance, how could he not have seen that? She wouldn't believe it. He shouldn't have said anything.

Sure enough, Nora buried her head deeper.

Her hands under the quilt were tightly clenched, and the sweat sprang up in her forehead because of hot. When this happened, she was not only ashamed and angry, but also mixed with unspeakable pain and grievance.

She attributed this inexplicable emotion to Sheldon.

Thinking of Sheldon, she recalled what his mother had said to her in the office the last time. Her flushed face turned a little pale, her brain was in a mess, and she even had an angry feeling towards Derek.

She knew it was not right. He saved her, and she should not be so ungrateful.

But she felt overwhelmed. What happened today seemed to confirm Sheldon's mother's slander on her.

She took a deep breath and thought that she was sitting on Derek's bed with his blanket over her. She felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to stay there any more.

Nora looked up slowly, "Mr. Xavier, thank you for saving me today. What happened just now was just an accident. Don't take it to heart. I want to change my clothes. Can I trouble you to wait for a moment outside?"

Her voice was so calm that she admired herself.

Derek was surprised at her calmness and immediately frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Nora changed her clothes and was completely at peace. She opened the door and walked out. "Mr. Xavier, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Derek immediately got up and said, "I'll see you off.”

"No, thanks, Mr. Xavier. It's not too late. I can go home alone, so I won't bother you.”

Her tone was flat, but her attitude was firm. Derek could not help but squint his eyes and finally knew the reason why he was unhappy just now.

This woman was trying to avoid him. No, more accurately, she was drawing a line between him and herself.

A sharp dark light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at her without saying anything.

Under this gaze, Nora's calm heart could not help but waver again. She frowned. It was strange that she felt that he was angry.

She looked at his expressionless face and said, "Mr. Xavier, then, I'll go first."

Until she was out of his sight, Derek did not ask her to stay. He just looked at her back, and it seemed to have a whirlpool flowing in his eyes.

A few days later, Damian reported the results.

"Mr. Xavier, according to your requirements, I have done it at the most professional agencies in this city, the whole province, and the whole country. These are the three results. Please have a look.” Derek looked at the three documents in front of him and did not move for a long time.

Finally, he reached out his hand and slowly opened the first document.

The result of the first appraisal report showed that the possibility of Nora and Easton were mother and son was up to 98%.

His pupils suddenly constricted. Even though he had expected it for all this time, it was still a great shock when he saw it with his own eyes.

Derek flipped through the remaining two results, one showing a 98 % chance and the other showing a 99. 5 % chance.

There was no need to doubt that Nora was Easton's mother and his wife.

She... was Meredith, his wife, who had been missing for five years.

With a swish, he couldn't help but stand up in excitement and the chair behind him fell to the ground.

As a qualified assistant, Damian naturally wouldn't check the results before his boss. Now that he saw the status of his boss, he knew what happened.

He felt incredible, but at the same time, he was happy for his boss.

"Congratulations, Mr. Xavier."

After waiting for so many years, he finally got what he wanted.

The corners of Derek's lips trembled. God knows what kind of emotions he had in his heart at the moment he made sure of it. It was like fireworks had exploded in his heart. His heart, which had been blank for five years, was finally filled with brilliant colors again.

He was not a religious man, but at this moment, he really thanked God for Meredith's life. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but rush out of the door.

Now, he desperately wanted to see Nora. He had so much words to tell her.

But...

Damian had just expected this situation, as a qualified assistant, he had to pull back the boss's rationality when the boss lost control of his emotions.

So, as he stared at Derek's murderous eyes, he resisted the urge to going out and said quickly. "Mr. Xavier, please calm down, Miss Gray. No, Mrs. Xavier has lost her memory. She doesn't remember anything about you. If you rush over now, she may be terrified.”

Derek's face darkened and his brows tightened. He looked at Damian with an unfriendly gaze, but he had already calmed down.

Damian was frightened and said again, "Don't worry. I'll call Madam up now. Please wait for just a little while."

These words finally eased Derek's expression.

After what happened in the rest room last time, they had not contacted each other, and Derek had not sought her out, which made her relieved.

But now that she was summoned to the Office of the President again, she was a little confused, but still went upstairs.

Damian really overestimated his boss's control over himself. The moment Nora walked in, Derek couldn't help but stride over and hold Nora tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to embed himself into her body.

Nora was naturally startled. After a short cry, her face changed and she started to struggle, but it was useless.

Damian sighed and could only retreat quietly. After stepping out of the room, he stood there and guarded the door consciously.

"Mr. Xavier, what are you doing? Let me go." Nora was very angry.

The words "let go" irritated Derek. He hugged her tighter and buried his head deep in her neck.” I won't let go of you. I won't. You couldn't leave me again."
