Chapter 201
Derek looked at Meredith, whose crystal clear eyes reflected his figure.
She was waiting for his answer. Derek's heart softened. "Of course."
From the beginning to the end, he was very serious about her, but...
The child in her belly became the biggest obstacle between them.
"If I were playing, why did I bring you all the way here? Why did I protect you like that? Meredith, do
you think I was so free and bored?"
Derek said word by word. Meredith looked at him, trying to figure out if he was joking. However, she
found him to be rather serious.
Derek looked so sincere. She was the only one in his eyes, just like when she slowly put down her
guard and accepted him in the beginning.
No woman could resist his gaze.
"I'm willing to wait for you." Finally, Meredith said what Derek wanted to hear.
Even if she had doubts, she could not deceive herself. She liked him and even thought of raising their
children with him.
When Derek heard this, she pulled Meredith into her arms. She carefully prevented herself from
touching his wound. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
At this moment, she didn't want to think about anything else. Instead, she just wanted to cuddle in this
warm and generous embrace and enjoy the feeling.
"Miss Mason, the examination is done..."
Just as the two of them were snuggling up to each other sweetly, Damian walked in carelessly. Seeing
this scene, he immediately stopped and wanted to leave. Meredith was startled and slipped out of
Derek's arms, pretending that nothing had happened.
"Is the examination over? I'll go and have a look."
Although Meredith pretended to be cool and calm, the blush betrayed the restlessness.
Seeing Meredith leave, Derek looked at Damian coldly. "I think you should know to knock before
entering."
Damian smiled bitterly and rubbed his nose. "I was afraid that Miss Mason would get anxious, so I
forgot..."
He could not help but complain in his heart. How did he know that the two of them were hugging each
other in broad daylight. What's more, his boss didn't even wear a shirt. The scene was so
embarrassing that he couldn't bear to look straight at them.
"I'll go out and take a look." Damian was nervous and tried to sneak out, but Derek remembered
something. "Did you ask who the mastermind of the troublemakers was?"
Damian remembered his business and stopped, he looked serious. "It was the Masons who did it."
Speaking of this, Damian was also a little angry. Meredith was a pregnant woman, but those people did
not give up when they acted, obviously wanting to kill her.
"Where are they now?"
Derek's tone was terrifying. At first, he didn't hurt the Masons because he was afraid that they would
jump over the wall and attack Meredith's mother. Now that they had rescued Meredith's mother, there
was no need to let them go wild again.
"Wesley seems to have received the news and rushed over. As for Ava and the others, they are still
home."
Damian looked at Derek's cold expression. He knew that the Masons provoked his boss, who would
never let them off lightly.
Meredith walked to the ward where Amelia was. The doctor said that she had only used the cheapest
and most basic medicine and nutrient solution to maintain her life over the years. At most, she was
hanging her breath and had no decent treatment at all, so the situation was not optimistic. Whether she
could wake up or not depended on the patient's willpower.
When Meredith heard this, she bit her lip until it bled. She still remembered Wesley's superior face,
saying that as long as she didn't cause trouble and was obedient, he would get the best treatment for
her mother. It turned out to be lies.
"I see."
After hearing the doctor's instructions, Meredith went into the room and first went to fetch a basin of
warm water, then wiped Amelia's body.
The nurse offered to help, but she refused. Amelia was a very proud person before she fell ill. If she
was still awake, she would never let strangers wipe her body.
Therefore, even if her mother was unconscious now, Meredith didn't want her to feel any discomfort at
all. She had to rub her a little bit harder.
However, her eyes fell on the pinholes and bedsores on Amelia's body, which had not been properly
cleaned up for some time, and which had already given off a stink. Finally, her tears fell.
"Mom, it's all my fault..." As Meredith spoke, she tried her best to do the only thing she could do. Just
as the anger in her heart was uncontrollable, Amelia seemed to sense her daughter's pain and moved
her hand.
For so many years, no one had come to see her. Amelia's consciousness had not been recovered, and
the nursing personnel did not care about her life or death.
But now, hearing Meredith's voice and feeling the warm liquid hitting her, Amelia's consciousness
slowly revived...
My daughter. Did Meredith come out of prison?
Amelia had suffered a stroke because of Meredith being falsely imprisoned and had been badly
treated. Now, a big knot in her heart suddenly unraveled, and she felt as if the big rock that was
pressing on her had been suddenly moved away.
It took Meredith a long time to clean up the dirt on her mother's body, and the next step was to apply
medicine to the wounds on her body.
Meredith went around Amelia's body and was about to flip her over from the other side when suddenly,
Amelia grabbed the corner of her clothes with her pale hands.
Meredith was stunned and looked at Amelia's hand in disbelief. How could her mother still be
conscious and even move?
She couldn't help but cry out in surprise. The doctor came in as soon as he heard the voice. He was
also shocked to see this. "It must be the reason that she saw her daughter. She had a clear mind. Miss
Mason, if you talk to the patient more in the future, it might have a good effect!"
Meredith nodded and covered her mouth to stop herself from crying. As expected, her mother did not
give up on her. When her mother saw her, she was trying to wake up!
A kind of hope that never existed emerged from her. Meredith put down the thing in her hand
temporarily and held the hand that Amelia had just stretched out. "Mom, don't worry. No one will bully
you again. I will protect you well."
Amelia exhausted all her strength to move a little, so she couldn't react to Meredith's words. However,
Meredith was not discouraged. She believed that one day, her mother would be better. By then, her
mother would be happy to see her baby born, right?
