Chapter 543
Meredith went back to the room. She was upset.
After a while, Easton still didn't come back.
Meredith felt that she shouldn't have left him there alone. Just now, seeing Derek and Parker at
loggerheads made her feel helpless.
She was really not interested in getting involved in that, and the scene just reminded her of the past.
Just as she was thinking, someone knocked on the door. When she opened the door. She saw Parker
standing at the door.
"I'm staying at this hotel too. After all, I have to listen to auntie."
As soon as Parker spoke, he mentioned Amelia. So Meredith didn't know how to reply.
"I just got here. I'm not familiar with the place. I want to go out for a meal. Can you recommend a
restaurant for me?"
Meredith knew clearly what Parker meant.
She was silent for a moment and then said, "Parker, you don't have to do this. You're busy. Don't waste
time on me."
The smile on Parker's face froze. He looked at Meredith's face seriously. "Now, even if you're not with
him anymore, can't you give me a chance?
For the past five years, I have been frantically looking for you. Dennis survived, so I thought that you
could luckily survive too, but I searched everywhere and found no trace of you.
Later, I gave up. My only thought was to help you get back at the Xaviers as well as Violet. I wanted to
make her pay for your death. "
Parker sounded very calm. That was a secret that he had never told Meredith.
He didn't want to win sympathy from her, but he just wanted her to stop being so distant from him.
"Parker, I'm sorry. I didn't know how you spent your days that way..."
Meredith looked at his expression and felt sorry for him only because she treated him as her friend.
If she hadn't lost her memory, perhaps things wouldn't turn so complicated. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Looking at Meredith's guilty face, Parker felt guilty. What he said was true, but it wasn't just for Meredith
that he took revenge on the Xaviers.
He also did that for himself and for his dead mother.
But he resisted the urge to explain. "I'm not saying this to make you feel guilty. Now that you're
separated from Derek, don't ignore my concern unless you really hate me so much that it hurts to even
see me."
"Parker..."
Of course, Meredith didn't hate him, but she didn't want to waste his time.
She thought that Parker deserved a better woman, a woman who was devoted to him.
"I just don't want you to waste your time."
"Time is mine. I'll know if it's a waste."
Parker insisted, so Meredith sighed helplessly.
After all, she could never control other people's thoughts.
"If you insist, I can't say anything, but maybe I'll never accept your feelings for the rest of my life. I'm
sorry."
Parker's eyes dimmed when he heard that, but he didn't look away. "I don't care. I can wait."
"I don't think it's necessary."
Derek brought Easton here.
Easton was still throwing a tantrum, saying that his mother had just left without him.
But seeing that Meredith had been waiting for a long time, he came back quickly.
As soon as he got here, they saw Parker.
Derek heard Parker's affectionate confession just now, something about waiting for her, which made
him especially unhappy.
Did Parker treated him as a dead man?
"Mr. Hill, don't be so affectionate. People will feel hard on the eyes."
Derek was so sharp-tongued that average people could never bear it.
Parker's face darkened. Still, he looked cynically at Derek. "What I'd like to do has nothing to do with
you. It's more important to mind your own business."
After Parker finished speaking, Meredith said, "Parker, aren't you going out to eat? Go."
Parker was in anger. After seeing that Meredith looked embarrassed, he didn't want to put her in a
dilemma. "Okay, I'll go first, Easton. I'll bring you food."
Easton really wanted to say that he didn't need it. He didn't care about this evil man's food.
However, since his mother was polite to the man, he held back.
Parker left, and Derek remained serious.
Meredith wanted to bring Easton over, but Derek stopped her.
"Wait, I want to talk to you."
Meredith glanced at Derek and saw that he was serious. She nodded. "Okay."
Then he turned to Easton and said, "I'll go out with your father. You stay here and don't run around,
okay?"
Easton nodded obediently and watched the two adults walk out.
Derek walked ahead and they went up to the rooftop. It was a huge viewing platform and there was no
one there.
"Parker came here for you, right? What are you going to do?"
Derek cut to the chase.
Meredith glanced at him. Although she could explain, she was suddenly too angry to say anything
when she thought that he and Evelyn were dating.
"It's his business. What can I do?"
Derek, who had been restrained, could not bear to hear this.
It had to be said that Meredith knew him very well... Every time, she could find the most unpleasant
part of him and poke it hard.
"Are you looking for a stepfather for Easton so soon?"
"Derek, what are you talking about?"
Meredith's eyes widened, feeling as if she had gone back to the days when he didn't believe that
Easton was his own child.
Looking at Derek's face, Meredith said, "If anything happened between me and Parker, it would have
happened five years ago. You're not in the position to judge me."
Derek's face turned livid.
"So, now that you regret it, and you want to be with him when you see his fake feelings for you?"
