The Good Girl's Revenge
Chapter 43

Meredith left with her stuff. She didn't look as calm as just now and even a little somber.

She knew Ava too well. There must be a reason why Ava would lower herself to come here. The most likely possibility was that Ava wanted to beat her down again through spreading her stories in the company, making her a joke, and forcing her to leave by choice.

Thinking of this, Meredith clenched her fingers while bit her lower lip with her teeth, not even noticing that her lip was bleeding.

"Eh? Meredith? You are Ava's elder sister, right? Why didn't you even mention it?"

Meredith was walking with all melancholy thoughts when a newcomer from the advertising department, Zhang, came out and greeted her warmly when he saw her.

"Nothing to say." Meredith shook her head. She was not close to Ava and their relationship could even be described as especially acrimonious. How could she take the initiative to mention her? Then Meredith thought of something. "By the way, has she signed a contract with our company?” Meredith still expected a pleasing answer. Zhang thought for a while and said, "Not yet, the determination of an endorser should be finally approved by Mr. Xavier but now it has been decided verbally. Why do you ask this?"

"Nothing." Meredith shook her head and hurried back to the top floor.

Derek was working. Meredith looked through the window at the man who was looking down at the document in his hand, feeling very anxious.

"What would he think if I ask him not to determine Ava as the endorser for the Xavier Group?"

But...

Thinking of Ava's dirty tricks, Meredith really didn't want her to succeed again. As Meredith hesitated outside, Derek seemed to notice something. He looked up and saw Meredith standing outside and thinking something with her head down.

"Why are you creeping outside my window? What are you doing here?” The man said faintly. Meredith gritted her teeth and opened the door to walk in with great courage, "I... I have something to tell you."

Derek raised his eyebrows, feeling quite strange. Meredith was usually silent and even like a mute in the company. He barely heard her talking to anyone but now it seemed so strange that she would take the initiative to talk to him.

"What's the matter?” Derek played with the pen in his hand and looked at her leisurely.

"Could you please do me a favor?"

Meredith finished her words in one breath and then looked at Derek without any confidence. Derek didn't answer while tapping at the table. Meredith was a little nervous. At this time, Damian gave Meredith a wink and signaled her to continue.

Damian knew Derek's temper very well. He would just tell people to get out if he really didn't want to hear anymore.

"I hope Xavier Group doesn't cooperate with Ava.”

Meredith had no confidence in her heart after her words and even felt a little worried that she would annoy Derek.

"Ava? Your sister?"

Derek frowned slightly, feeling a little bit confused.

He had also heard about the affairs between the sisters.

Everyone said that Ava was a cheerful, generous, and sensible person who was gentle and kind to everyone. She was very popular while the only person who didn't like her was Meredith.

Perhaps out of jealousy, Meredith framed this sister up in every possible way. She even pushed Ava to the ground in public. What an appalling action she did! Therefore, many people felt that she deserved it after she went to prison.

"You're right.”

"I don't know what's going on between you and her. However, it's the company's official business to choose an endorser and it's impossible for you to use it as a tool for revenge.”

Meredith's eyes darkened and she could not help but mock herself. "How could I take the initiative to come here and humiliate myself? I must be crazy."

Although this was an expected answer, she was still so grudging.

"Ava would not let me go. If she stays, she would definitely mess all my life up.”

"I'm begging you for this, just think it as a favor. As I once gave you help at the banquet yesterday, can you help me too? Then we'll be even and we won't owe each other anyone.”

Derek closed the book in front of him, showing a somewhat unpleasant look.

"Meredith, you should make it clear that it's already the Xaviers's favor to get you out of the prison. You should have done what you did that day and it couldn't be your negotiating power with me.” "Also, I don't know the personal grudge between you and your sister but you don't have the right to be jealous that she's better off than you are. It's your fault that you've come to this stage. It's useless to resent others.”

Derek spoke indifferently but Meredith suddenly lost control of her emotions. "It's all my fault and I deserve it? Do you know what happened? If you don't, why should you teach me the lesson in such a superior way?"

Meredith gasped violently with her clear eyes glistening with some tears.

She rarely got angry over anything. The three-year experience in prison had flattened her edges. However, when she heard Derek speaking in such a natural tone, the grievance in her heart finally burst out uncontrollably.

If it weren't for Ava, she wouldn't be like this. She would also be a normal girl, going to college, working, living an ordinary but stable life.

Ava ruined her everything but everyone thought she deserved it.

"Get out of here.” When had he been yelled at face to face like this? Derek threw his book on the table with a loud snap. His eyes were filled with cold anger.

Meredith knew that she had completely messed up this. She didn't want to waste her breath anymore so she turned around and walked away directly.

She shouldn't have come here to make a fool of herself. How could someone like Derek help her? Looking at her handsome back view, Derek couldn't calm himself down but became more and more irritated.

After a while, the advertising department sent over the documents signed with Ava.

Looking at Ava's gorgeous signature, Derek's mind was still filled with the scene when Meredith argued with him just now.

The girl's eyes were filled with grievances, grudge, and... despair.

That look, too shocking, was as helpless as a drowning man in the deep sea, lingering in his mind. Derek's pen tip paused in the signature column and finally, he stopped writing and threw the contract aside. "the Xavier Group doesn't need an endorser now. This plan is not approved.”

The minister of the advertising department was confused. "Boss, Ava really has a good image and is enthusiastic about public welfare. Also, her latest film which enjoys a good reputation is about to be released. Moreover, the price we offer to her this time is very low..."

The minister of the advertising department didn't want to lose such a good opportunity to improve his business and he couldn't more or less understand why Derek refused such an obvious favorable condition for the company. He couldn't help but argue for Ava.
