Chapter 466
However, since Meredith was unwilling to talk, Amelia did not force her.
There was no point in drowning in the past.
They stayed quiet for a while, and neither of them spoke. They missed this peace and quietness very much.
After a while, Amelia seemed to remember something. She looked up at Meredith and ask, "Does Parker know that you're still alive?”
Not expecting Amelia to suddenly mention Parker, Meredith was stunned and shook her head. Although she wanted to contact Parker, his previous cell phone number had been changed, so Meredith did not continue to look for him.
During her most difficult time, Parker sacrificed a lot for her and helped her a lot. If he already had his own life, she didn't want to cause him any trouble.
"His contact information has changed, and I can't find him.”
Amelia sighed when she heard this. "That kid, after the accident, found me and knelt in front of me all night. He said he was sorry for you. It was all his fault."
Kneeling all night?
Meredith thought of that arrogant man and never expected him to do such a thing.
Her death probably left him with a huge psychological shadow.
"Although I was a little angry about him, I couldn't blame him anymore when I saw how upset he was. After all, he had put a lot of effort from the beginning to the end to help us."
"It's just that after that day, he changed. After spending a few days with me, he said he had something important to deal with and then he left."
Meredith's mood was indescribably complicated after hearing this.
She really wanted to get in touch with Parker and tell him that she was fine. He didn't do anything wrong. There was no need to feel guilty.
But it was hard.
"But before he left, he hired a nanny for me. Now that nanny is still with me. Maybe you can ask her."
After Amelia finished speaking, she was a little tired. Seeing this, Meredith nodded quickly. "I see. I will try to contact him. I won't keep him in the dark anymore. Mom, you just had the operation. You should have a good rest.”
Amelia nodded
Since this sudden illness, she had no desire to survive. After all, her daughter was gone, and Easton had a good life in the Xaviers. She had nothing to worry about.
But now, seeing that Meredith was back, she did not want to die. Her daughter was not living a happy life yet. She couldn't die.
"Mer, you haven't been around all these years, and the property of the Masons is still there. If you have time, you can take it from here. I don't have the energy to manage it."
Meredith did not expect that Amelia had managed the Masons's companies and property all along. She nodded. "I see."
"As a woman, you may not want to run the company, and it's OK if you want to sell it. Just in time, I hope to pay off all the money Derek spent on me this time."
Amelia held Meredith's hand tightly.
She had always been a strong woman, which made her succeed when she started a business with Wesley with her bare hands.
Ever since she was sick, she didn't want to go to the hospital. Instead, Derek found her and sent her here.
At that time, she did not want to accept such a favor. After all, she thought Meredith's death was because of Derek.
Facing her enemy, she didn't want to owe him anything.
But she was already seriously ill, and Derek said, "Do you want Easton to see his grandmother die before his eyes at such a young age? Do you want me to be a murderer who killed his own grandmother?”
Amelia compromised, but she was still thinking about returning the money Derek spent on her.
It was just that she hadn't found any unreliable people, and now that Meredith was back, it would be perfect.
"Mom..."
How could Meredith not understand Amelia's thoughts?
Ever since she was in danger abroad, her mother had always hated Derek's way of dealing with things.
If her mother did not pay off this debt of gratitude, she would not be at ease with treatment.
"Mer, tell me frankly, why are you involved with him again?"
"I... It was just an accident...”
Meredith didn't know how to answer when her mother asked her this question.
It would be impossible to say that she wanted to make up with Derek.
However, there were so many coincidences that made them get mixed up again and again.
It was doomed love.
Apart from this phrase, she could not know how to describe their relationship.
"If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you, but you have to think clearly, will your situation be better even if you have a son? I don't want what happened five years ago to happen to you again.” "If the Xaviers dares to do this again, I will fight them to the death.”
Amelia's words awakened those memories that Meredith did not want to recall.
Could she really forget what the Xaviers had done?
Even if she really let bygones be bygones, with Violet's arrogance, it was also a question of whether she could accept her or not.
"I'll think about it.”
Meredith looked down and said nothing more.
Seeing that she had listened, Amelia did not force her anymore.
She had to figure it out herself, and then it would work.
After Amelia went to rest, Meredith walked out quietly.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Derek waiting for her at the door.
The man was dressed in a black suit, which outlined his perfect shape under the cold lights of the hospital.
The coldness made him unable to be approached.
However, when he heard the sound of the door opening behind him, Derek immediately came over. "How is your mother?"
The man wanted to hold Meredith's hand, but she pretended to fix her hair and dodged.
Derek's eyes darkened but he remained silent.
"She's fine. Now that she is asleep, let her have a good rest.”
"You're tired. Go back and rest."
Derek looked at Meredith's red eyes and knew that she must have said a lot to Amelia just now, but it was not known whether these words had affected her attitudes towards him.
"I... I want to resign and stay with my mother.”
Meredith thought for a while and came up with the idea.
She had been thinking that the Masons's company was something of Amelia's painstaking effort since she was young. If she sold it so easily, she would get a lot of money, but it would be a pity in the end.
So she wanted to keep the Masons's company. Besides, her mother's condition was not very clear. Although she really liked the design, she was willing to sacrifice her carrer to accompany her mother.
"Resign?"
Derek frowned.
