The Good Girl's Revenge

When she got back, Meredith started to prepare the speech carefully.

Time flew quickly. When Derek arrived, he saw Meredith looking down at the printed paper in her hand and muttering in a low voice, as if she was very nervous.

However, such a serious look was also a kind of charm. People said that the serious woman was the most beautiful. At this moment, Derek was convinced.

Meredith had memorized the speech several times. Although it was not a long speech, she had tried her best to make it perfect.

When she was almost done, she looked up and found Derek standing not far away, looking at her with a smile.

Meredith's heart beat wildly.

It had to be admitted that when being looked at tenderly by such a handsome face, everyone would feel a crush.

"Why didn't you call me when you are here?" Meredith immediately stood up, packed her things, and walked over.

Derek helped her take the things over casually. "Not long. Seeing how serious you are, it's not easy for me to disturb.”

There was a hint of indulgence in the man’s tone.

Meredith was a little unease when she heard this, and her face got heated. "Sweet mouth.”

Derek saw her blushed face, he smiled. "Only to you. Are you satisfied?"

Meredith couldn't stand it any longer. Her face turned red completely and she walked out rapidly. Derek looked at her fleeing back and couldn't help shaking his head, but his smile did not dissipate. Although they hadn't been together for five years, at some point, this woman's lovely side was still there. For a moment, there was an illusion that time was going backward

Meredith went downstairs and waited for a while. Derek came out as well. She glanced at him and saw that Derek was driving. "Just the two of us?"

"Well, there's no need for this closing ceremony to be too grand.”

Derek said as he leaned over to fasten Meredith's seat belt. "After all, Tina won the gold medal at this exhibition. We don't need to bring a group of people to support her.”

"Oh... Is that her..."

Meredith didn't like Tina very much. She felt something was strange when thinking that Tina could win the award.

This time, it was all elites from all over the world that attended the exhibition. In terms of the design level, even if it was not world-class, it was definitely not a low one.

If Tina was capable from the beginning, why was she held back by that Judy?

Meredith couldn't figure it out. After thinking about it, she didn't bother to care about it, because it was just a family matter of the Horton Family.

As long as those people didn't provoke her, what they did had nothing to do with her.

The car drove smoothly and soon arrived at the exhibition hall.

The closing ceremony also included an award ceremony, so it was a little grander than the opening ceremony.

As soon as Derek arrived, he was surrounded by a group of people who wanted to talk about cooperation.

Meredith didn't want to get involved with the Xavier Group, so she walked away and wandered around.

But at first glance, she saw Tina in full dress, who was holding a glass of champagne in her hand, chatting and laughing with the people in front of her. There was no such thing as being submissive behind Judy.

In particular, the clothes she was wearing today were extremely gorgeous. The fiery red dress was embellished with gold wire, shimmering in the light, coupled with the resplendent jewelry on her... It was extremely luxurious.

Meredith glanced at her and quickly looked away, but before she could sit down, Tina, who was just chatting with others, came over.

"Hello, Miss Mason."

Tina walked over with a smile. "Thank you for this time's concession.”

Meredith was momentarily speechless.

She was well aware of her own level. With so many outstanding people coming to the exhibition, she was satisfied that she could win a silver award for her design. She did not expect that Tina's aim was her.

Just as Meredith was trying to figure out how to escape, there was a sudden commotion outside. "Miss, you can't go in without an invitation!"

"Please get out!"

Meredith looked over. Outside, a few bodyguards surrounded a thin-looking girl. It seemed that they were trying to chase her out.

Meredith couldn't bear to see it, especially when she saw that the girl seemed very sad. She couldn't help but walk over with curiosity.

"What happened?”

Meredith went over and saw the girl clearly.

She had a teenage face but it was exceptionally beautiful. Her red eyes were as clear and transparent as gemstones. She was dressed in a black Lolita dress, paired with her flawless face. She really looked like a beauty in an oil painting.

Meredith had always been fond of beautiful things, especially when she saw the girl's stubborn face, which made her think of herself for no reason. She walked over and asked the security guards to leave first.

"What's wrong with you? You need an invitation to get in here. Are you lost?"

Meredith communicated with her in a foreign language. When the girl heard the familiar language, she looked over but still kept silent.

Only then did Meredith realize that although this girl had a pair of beautiful eyes, she looked at people strangely.

Normally, no one would look at a stranger so straightforwardly. She had never seen that look before.

Meredith couldn't help but take a step back when a woman's voice came from behind. "Rosentti, why are you here?"

Meredith was relieved when she saw someone was looking for her. She nodded to the woman, indicating that they could leave.

The middle-aged woman understood what she meant and was about to pull the girl away, but the girl seemed to be frozen and refused to leave. Her eyes were fixed on the golden prize works in the exhibition hall.

The middle-aged woman was annoyed at her stubbornness and muttered, "What's the use of looking at it? It already belongs to someone else."

They said this in French, probably because they thought Meredith wouldn't understand

But when Meredith heard it, she couldn't help but frown.

She had learned some French before and naturally understood them.

"It already belongs to someone else?!"

What did she mean?

Could it be that Tina's stunning design was actually made by this strange girl?

"Wait a minute!"

Meredith walked over and stopped them in French. "What did you mean by that?"

The middle-aged woman was shocked that Meredith should understand them. She didn't say anything and pulled the girl to run out.
