The Good Girl's Revenge

Chapter 88

When Jameson and Asher arrived in Derek's box, there was already a lot of wine in front of Derek.

A few empty bottles were placed aside. It was obvious that Derek had drunk quite a bit by himself just

now, but there was no sign of being drunk on his face.

The two of them looked at each other confusedly. If it was anyone else who was sitting here drinking,

they might not be so surprised.

However, he was Derek. He had never been fond of alcohol. He rarely drank so much even in social

gatherings.

In other words, what kind of thing would let someone like him drown his sorrows in alcohol?

"Could it be a breakup?"

Jameson was always straightforward. When Derek, who was pouring wine heard that, he slammed the

bottle on the table and looked at him coldly. "You're late! Why're you still so noisy?"

Hearing what he said, the two of them couldn't ask any more questions. They sat down and drank with

him.

After a while, most of the wine bottles in front of them were empty. Although the two people were good

at drinking, they could not stand drinking like that.

Jameson looked at Derek's gloomy face. "It can't be related to the girl you brought over last time, can

it? Listen to me. It's useless to seek solace in drink. It's better if you say it out."

Asher frowned. "Which girl? Damn, it can't be that cleaning girl... The last time you left Chloe there

alone abroad, it couldn't be for her, right?"

"Can't you shut your mouth up when drinking?"

The reason why Derek came out was that he didn't want to see anything related to Meredith anymore.

He didn't expect that these two people would go against him and bring up her endlessly.

His reaction was equivalent to acquiescence.

Derek was no longer in the mood to continue getting drunk. He had disdained to try to numb himself

with alcohol for a woman.

Besides, the woman had betrayed him.

If Meredith could leave so quickly and decisively, why should he still be reluctant to part?

It was ridiculous.

...

Meredith tidied up in her new home and went to the bookstore to buy some books about mother and

baby.

These days, in the Xaviers, she was scared every day and did not have time to learn these. Now she

finally moved out, so there were no more scruples.

Meredith opened a book and read it for a while, but she couldn't concentrate on the book in her hand.

She wondered if Derek had returned to the Xaviers today, if he already knew about his departure, or if

he would come to her for it...

Thinking about it, Meredith was a little upset.

She threw down the book and went to the kitchen to warm up a glass of milk, trying to fall asleep.

...

However, Meredith didn't sleep well that night.

Although it was much more comfortable than sleeping on the floor in the Xaviers, she was not used to

it...

When she got up, Meredith couldn't help but despise herself. Was it because she had suffered too

much and even was not used to enjoying herself?

Habitually, Meredith turned on her phone and took a look. There was nothing else except a text

message from Julius who told her to be careful outside.

Meredith could not help but laugh at herself. Last night, she was still worried that Derek would be angry

when he found her leave. Now it seemed that she was all sentimental.

She was just a passer-by in Derek's life, even a very unpopular one. It didn't matter if she left or not!

How could Derek be reluctant to part with her?

Maybe he had no emotional fluctuations at all.

...

Derek's day began with a headache and irritation.

He drank too much last night, besides, the wine was too strong. Even he felt a hangover headache.

As soon as he arrived at the company, he saw the things left by Meredith, which made his mood

become even worse.

"Go throw these things out."

Damian was stunned. "Miss Mason, she..." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

A while ago, didn't his boss teach Meredith personally?

How could it change so soon?

"Do you need me to repeat it?"

With Derek's cold look, Damian immediately lowered his head. "I got it."

Soon, someone cleared Meredith's desk and some of the things she used.

But it was clear that this did not improve Derek's mood.

During the afternoon meeting, his face remained gloomy.

"Is this the project you've worked so hard to come up with? It's rubbish."

"If you are still at this level, you can leave with your salary today."

"Redo everything."

The employees who attended the meeting were all too afraid to breathe out loud, fearing that their big

boss would find any mistake and take it as a counter-example.

When the meeting was finally over, a group of people couldn't help but grab Damian. "What's wrong

with Mr. Xavier? Why is he so angry today?"

"If this project needs to be redone, I'm afraid I won't have to sleep for a week. No, even if I don't sleep, I

can't finish it. "

"Damian, please persuade him."

Damian could guess the reason, but seeing how upset Derek was, he didn't dare to irritate him.

"I'll try my best."

After getting rid of these people, Damian thought about it and called Meredith.

Because Miss Mason had not been here for a day, the whole company was about to blow up. He had

no choice but to ask her if something had happened.

Meredith was waiting outside for the interview results for her new job. The company she had applied for

before she left the Xavier Group unexpectedly gave her an interview opportunity very quickly.

Her phone rang. Meredith glanced at it. It was Damian who called.

Although she no longer had any contact with the Xavier Group, after all, Damian was a teacher who

had taught her a lot of things. Meredith answered the phone. "Damian, what's wrong?"

Damian was the one who wanted to ask Meredith this question!

"Meredith, Mr. Xavier is very unhappy that you are not coming to work today."

Meredith was stunned as if she did not expect Derek to react to her leaving without saying goodbye.

She thought Derek wouldn't care about this at all.

"I won't go to work in the future. Thank you for taking care of me these days, and I'm sorry for causing

you so much trouble."

As soon as she finished speaking, the interviewer came out. Meredith hung up the phone and went up

to meet him.

"Well, although your educational background is not up to the standard, you used to work in the Xavier

Group, there must be something extraordinary about you. Just stay."

Hearing this, Meredith smiled happily.

Unexpectedly, her experience at the Xavier Group actually provided her with a lot of convenience in

finding a new job.

Damian listened to the beeping sound from his cell phone and the unpleasant scolding from Derek in

the office. He was totally helpless.

If the boss kept being angry, he was afraid that everyone in the company would lose half their lives.

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind... Let Mr. Xavier go for the one who caused the trouble. They were

just some nobodies and couldn't afford to Mr. Xavier's angry.
