Chapter 281
Perhaps, she was moved by Parker's serious expression.
Meredith nodded seriously.
Parker wouldn't lie to her. So, did she really have a chance to see her child?
Thinking about it, Meredith sat up and said, "I know... I won't collapse."
...
Perhaps because her life had been full of darkness and confusion for a long time, Meredith became
more optimistic when there was a little more hope in her life. After some time, Meredith recovered a lot
and was gradually able to go out for a walk.
After Parker and Amelia set the time, they took Meredith back to J City.
The moment they got off the plane, Meredith felt as if she had left here for a vert long time.
These days, she was abroad. Although the scenery there was beautiful, it was not her hometown after
all.
Now, back in the place where she grew up, she only felt familiar and happy.
"If it's appropriate, we can go out for a tour."
Parker reached out and pressed the brim of Meredith's hat.
In order not to be recognized and cause trouble, Meredith disguised herself this time. She was wearing
a big hat, covering half of her face. The sunglasses and mask covered the other parts of her face.
Fortunately, it was already late autumn in J City. When others saw her like this, they looked at her a few
more times and didn't feel strange.
"The child will be brought here tomorrow, right?"
Meredith nodded and dodged Parker's hand.
The man's hand was very gentle, tinged with intimacy, but Meredith subconsciously wanted to avoid.
Noticing this, Parker sighed in his heart but did not show his disappointment.
It seemed that her previous failed relationship caused her to be vigilant towards others.
"That's right. When the time comes, you have to dress up so that no one can recognize you. Then,
cherish every minute you have with the child. Auntie will try her best to hold back those people."
Meredith nodded. Her hands trembled when she thought of seeing her baby.
Now, the baby should be three months old...
She wondered what he looked like now. Would he... look like her? Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
A sweet yet sad feeling welled up in Meredith's heart when she thought of this.
...
The next day, Meredith got up early.
Afraid of being found out, she stayed in the hotel instead of the Masons' villa.
Besides, she specially prepared a lot of cosmetics, blackened her face, made a few freckles, and then
put on thick bangs. She then wore a pair of thick glasses and oversized clothes.
She now looked like a very ordinary middle-aged woman who would not be noticed in a crowd.
Parker knocked on the door and Meredith walked out. Seeing her outfit, he couldn't help but laugh.
"This is too much..."
Meredith looked at herself. "I think it's OK. Just to be safe. I don't want any trouble."
After saying that, she pulled her clothes and some strange thoughts came to her mind.
She dressed up like this as if Derek would definitely come to her. But that man didn't care about her at
all, but she still dressed like this...
Maybe she was thinking too much.
Thinking about it, Meredith smiled bitterly at herself and followed Parker into the car.
Today, she will pretend to be Amelia's nanny, and then Amelia would find an excuse to talk to Derek, so
that she could spend some time alone with the child.
As the car got closer to the Masons, Meredith's hands tightened, cold sweat came out, and her heart
was beating fast.
Only then did she notice that Derek's car was parked outside, and it was still that cool limited edition
luxury car. It looked very conspicuous and could not be ignored.
Meredith's mind suddenly flashed with memories. She used to ride in this car, and many things
happened on this car between her and the owner of the car. But in the end, everything vanished.
She had nothing to do with him anymore.
"I'll wait for you outside. If you need anything, call me. I'll be right there."
Because they were doing it behind Xavier's back, Parker could not follow in. If Derek saw him, he
would be suspicious.
Meredith nodded. "Don't worry. It's okay. I won't be recognized since I am dressed like this."
After that, she took a few deep breaths, suppressed the tension and agitation she was feeling, opened
the door, and entered the villa through the back door.
the Masons was now in the charge of Amelia, so and all the traces left by Wesley and Clara were
erased, and only the things that Meredith was familiar with were left.
Because Amelia hadn't given her the signal yet, she didn't dare to come in. She went into the room that
once belonged to her.
As soon as she opened the door, she felt the room so familiar.
Meredith's room was exactly what it was like of her teenage years according to Amelia's memory.
There was a piano in it. There was pink bedding on the big bed and a curtain for a princess that she
used to like. Seeing them, she seemed to go back to many years ago.
At that time, she had been the darling of her parents, the little princess, and could get whatever she
wanted, but now...
Meredith looked at those things. Although she missed them, she no longer wanted them. She... had
changed, and no longer liked the things that should be for young girls.
Just as Meredith looked at the room in a daze, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
Derek had come out for a cigarette. Ever since Meredith died, he had the habit of smoking.
As soon as he came out, he saw the door of Meredith's room open.
No one was allowed to enter the room.
Meredith's room was restored by himself. He bought everything himself. Even the piano was bought
when the Masons went bankrupt and its belongings got auctioned.
Everything in the room had traces of Meredith, so no one could enter except him.
The servants of the Masons knew the rules and wouldn't go in and clean up. But someone dared to go
in today?
Derek walked over in a few steps and saw a suspicious woman trying to escape.
He immediately stood in front of her. "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The familiar voice stopped Meredith in her tracks. She thought she had completely forgotten this man,
but the moment she saw him, she realized that she was deceiving herself.
