The Good Girl's Revenge

Chapter 16

The phone immediately hung up. In that instant, the cold sweat on Meredith's body had soaked through

her clothes, as if the clothes had been taken out of the cold water. Meredith also felt as if all the

surrounding air had been drained away, suffocating her.

Julius also got up and grabbed Meredith's trembling body, "Meredith, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I'm fine..." Meredith avoided Julius's hand and took a few steps back. Fearing that she might

implicate Julius, she grabbed the phone and hurriedly said goodbye to him, "I have something to do. I

have to leave. I will contact you another day."

"Wait. "Julius knew that Meredith had difficulties. Meredith was a tragic woman who had been unjustly

imprisoned and then controlled by the Xaviers after her release. As much as he wanted to help

Meredith, he could only do so in moderation, as he didn't want to harm her. "Give you the band card.

You take it with you. If you don't like what you eat and wear at the Xaviers, go out and buy some. By

the way, I've also brought you a lot of clothes, all of which are the styles you used to like. You will also

have other clothes you can change into if you can't go out and buy them."

Meredith looked down at the old jeans and white short sleeves she had brought out of prison three

years ago and smiled awkwardly. "It's okay. I have my clothes..."

"Don't be so polite to me. All right, go back first. The Xaviers will make things difficult for you if you're

late."

Julius stuffed the clothes and the card into Meredith's hand and turned to leave. Meredith had to take

the clothes and get into the car of the Xaviers.

At the corner of the street, Julius sat in the car and watched Meredith's thin figure get into the car. His

heart inexplicably tightened, and his hand also tightened the steering wheel.

Julius thought, "Meredith, wait for me. One day I will let you be free."

Meredith was restless on her way back, hoping that the night would come later. She was afraid that the

man would do something to her, but she dared not tell anyone.

The driver was also the man's subordinate, and she dared not show any signs of abnormality.

For a moment, she wanted to jump out of the car and escape, but she knew she couldn't escape from

the Xaviers!

Meredith felt as if her throat had been choked, and she could not breathe for a moment.

Meredith sat in the living room until midnight, not daring to go back to her room. The servants who

came and went looked at her in surprise. Finally, when Violet came home late for the dinner and saw

Meredith still sitting on the sofa in the living room, her anger surged up, and she began to scold

Meredith, "Why are you sitting here at this late hour like a fool? You should stay with Derek."

"I, I can't sleep. I'm breathing in the living room..."

"Go back to your room and massage Derek until you can sleep! Don't let me see you again in the

middle of the night. It's disgusting!"

Meredith had no choice but to get up and go back to the room. The moment the door was closed, the

light in the room turned dark, and Meredith was pressed against the door with great force.

"Where did that man touch you during the day, huh? Which hand did he touch? I'll take his hand off!"

"We're just good friends. You can't hurt him for no reason!"

"Meredith, in just a few days, you can't control yourself but go out and look for another man! I'm afraid

the so-called one month you mentioned is just your excuse. You want to find yourself a man and a

breadwinner so that you can get rid of me! And you dare to speak for that man. Do you believe that if

you say one more word, I can let him see the king of hell tomorrow?"

Meredith thought of Leo's Ferrari. When the driver ran into that car without hesitation, he didn't even

think about whether there was anyone in the car. Maybe they weren't worried about whether there was

anyone in the car. So to him, the man who was threatening Meredith now, killing Julius might just be a

piece of cake.

"Please, don't do this... I don't mean to ask for help. I have nothing to do with him. If you're worried, I'll

never see him again..."

Meredith was afraid. If she had more contact with Julius today, would she have received the grievous

news about Julius by now?

Her pleading worked and the man let her go, but when he saw the bags of clothes she was carrying,

his anger flared up again, and he slammed the bags of clothes to the ground, which made the card

Julius that had given her dropped.

The man looked at the clothes and the bank card on the floor and sneered, "He gave you clothes and a

bank card. I can't believe you're saying there's nothing between you."

Meredith's face was pinched by the man's big palm, and she squeezed out a few words from her lips

with difficulty, "Just a few clothes..."

"Just a few pieces of clothing? Next time, will you sleep with him?"

"That's enough! What do you want? These clothes didn't cost you anything. It is my freedom to accept

these clothes. Why do you have to control me in every way?"

"Freedom? Interesting! Meredith, I think you've been spoiled by Mr. Xavier for a while now. You've

forgotten where you are now and what your status is!"

"What does it have to do with you whether I have freedom or not, you crazy devil? At worst, I will die

with you!"

"Then I'll torture you first!" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
