Chapter 105
Meredith was awakened up by the cold. After being kidnapped, she was thrown to the ground.
It was so cold now, and the cold wind was blowing her clothes. The chill forced her to open her eyes
painfully.
At first glance, it was a dilapidated and abandoned factory. The surrounding walls had already
collapsed. The wind blew in from all directions, and there seemed to be some unpleasant smell of
decay in the air.
Meredith couldn't stand the stimulating odor and could not help but hunch up and retch.
Hearing the sound of her movement, the guard who was eating and drinking came over. Seeing her
wake up, he sneered, "Derek's woman is too delicate. Can't she stand it?"
Meredith had vomited for a while. She hadn't eaten anything today, and now she was just retching. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Hearing the sound, she looked up. She looked at the man, and then she saw Nova gloating at the side.
They were going to kidnap someone to threaten Derek?
Meredith soon realized her situation and forced herself to calm down.
"What are you looking at?" After yelling at Meredith, Nova looked at Mr. Long and said obsequiously,
"Mr. Long, Derek's woman is here. May I leave now?"
"Leave? Do you think this is a hotel, which you can come and go as you please."
Mr. Long sneered, "Since you and Meredith are here, let's see whom will be chosen by Derek later."
Finishing his words, he tied Nova up and threw her with Meredith.
Meredith now realized that it was Nova who was caught first and in order to save herself, she
immediately ratted her out.
"Mr. Long, how can you not keep your word! Let me out!"
"That's right. She's Derek's woman. Don't let her go." Meredith calmed down. When she heard Nova's
screams, she was not polite at all and dragged her in.
Nova glared at Meredith fiercely, but her mouth was blocked and she could not speak a single word.
The man called Mr. Long thought highly of Meredith when he saw that she didn't shout or swear and
kept her sanity, "Why, aren't you afraid?"
Afraid? Of course, Meredith was afraid. However, in this situation, except for increasing panic, fear
didn't make any sense.
"Of course I'm afraid, but what I want to say is that she lied to you."
Meredith said calmly, "It is not Derek's child at all. It's no use kidnapping me."
"You think I'll believe you by a few words?"
"If you don't believe me, you can go and find out who I am. My name is Meredith. When Derek was in a
car accident, it was I who knocked him down. He hates me so much. How can he come to save me?"
"As for why she ratted on me, the only possible answer is that she and I had a small grudge in the past,
so she wanted to rely on you to deal with me."
Mr. Long hesitated for a moment and asked a person to check what Meredith had said.
That was a big deal. After all, it involved a big guy--Derek. So the information was still easy to find and
check.
"Damn it, it's true."
Soon, Mr. Long found out the truth and saw Meredith's photos.
"So, what's the use of catching me? Derek might have come to save Nova for her sake, but when he
sees me, his enemy, will he still come? Do you think he will be so kind?"
Meredith said very calmly, but in fact, her palms were already soaked with sweat.
While the kidnappers were looking at each other, suddenly, a man barged in, "Bad news, Derek is on
his way. His car is about ten minutes away."
"How could he be so fast?" Mr. Long was also shocked. After thinking about it, he gave Nova a hard
kick. It must be this insidious, smelly woman's actions when she cheated Meredith into here just now.
Nova shook her head fiercely and looked at Meredith hatefully. Meredith was clearly trying to kill her!
Meredith felt the hatred in Nova's eyes, but she didn't feel guilty at all. If Nova hadn't gone out to show
off and hadn't dragged her in, she wouldn't have been in this kind of danger.
Unjust is doomed to destruction.
"Let's go up to the roof, even if we die, we die with Derek's women."
When Derek's motorcade soon reached the dilapidated factory, just like a gust of wind. The place
where the two women had just been locked up was empty now.
Hearing the voice of the gangster coming from the roof, Derek saw the two women who were tied up.
Nova's face was filled with tears and snot, with her hair dishevelled, like a drowned rat. When she saw
him, she seemed to be very excited, struggling and being slapped twice.
Meredith was on the other side, she was much calmer than Nova. But Derek's eyes still fell on her.
After making sure that she was not hurt, he was relieved.
"In the business world, it is natural for businessmen to gain and lose. There's no need to make things
so terrible, right?"
Derek looked at the leading gangster with a calm tone.
"Do you know what that company means to me? It's a lifetime's work and now it had been taken away
by you, a brat?"
"But since Mr. Xavier is so calm and in the mood to teach me a lesson, I would like to know if only one
of these two women can be saved, which one will you choose? Remember, you can only save one, and
the other will be pushed down by us."
Mr. Long smiled evilly. Now, he did not expect him would get away with it, so what he could do was to
make Derek pay the price!
With that, he tore the thing out of Nova's mouth.
"Come on, say a few more words to him and see who he's going to save."
Meredith's expression was very cold. She was not sure what Derek would do, "I told you, he can't save
me. This has nothing to do with me. I'm innocent."
Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to Meredith's words. Now that they were cornered, how could
they care if others were innocent?
"Derek, save me, for the sake of saving your life before!"
Meredith also wanted to say something, but if she told the truth of what happened that day, it was hard
to guarantee that the people behind her would not be angry and kill her directly.
For a moment, Meredith had nothing to say.
Derek's face darkened and his brain was racing.
As for these two people, he owed Nova, and for Meredith...
Derek could not tell what his feelings for her, but he knew that no one should get into trouble in front of
him.
"Boss, I'm afraid this is a trap." Damian whispered something in Derek's ear.
"We are already for ambushing downstairs. Even if someone falls off, it won't be a big deal."
After listening to Damian's words, Derek did not hesitate. His eyes darkened. He reached out his hand
and pointed to Nova who was drowning in tears, "I choose her."
Hearing his choice, Meredith's eyes dimmed, her body trembled, and her eyes closed.
