Chapter 610
Lydia was inside, while Meredith and Easton were waiting outside.
The time had been set for her mother's operation, and her mother's biological daughter had finally been
found after they had been apart for years. Moreover, Fiona had woken up and found her mother.
Everything was getting better.
Meredith couldn't help but sigh.
During these days, she was overwhelmed by such things. Fortunately, she still waited until the dawn of
new hopes.
After her mother finished the operation, she would have to take a good rest for a while.
"Mom, if you're tired, please go and rest for a while."
Easton knew that Meredith had been very tired these days, so he said, "I'm keeping an eye on her
here."
Meredith shook her head. She understood what Easton meant, but she could not leave at this time
however tired she was, since she had made the same mistake before.
"No need, Easton. I can still hold on."
Seeing that Meredith insisted, Easton didn't ask anymore.
Meredith wondered whether Easton would feel upset if Fiona was taken away since they were so close
right now.
"Easton, Fiona's mother just said that she would take her back. What do you think?"
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Easton thought for a while with his chin on his hand and looked at Meredith
guiltily. "Well... Mom, I have something to tell you. Actually, I asked dad to help me find Fiona's mom."
Easton knew that his mother didn't like his father to meddle in her affairs, so he was a little afraid of
being scolded.
When Meredith heard that it was Derek who had helped, he got stunned for a moment and then had
mixed feelings.
For the past few days, she had given him the cold shoulder and kept refusing him.
In the end, it was he who solved the matter, even when his hand was injured.
Meredith looked down as if she had been lost in thought.
Her silence got Easton confused. Was his mother going to blame him for this?
"Mom, it's not that I don't believe in your ability, but..."
"No, Easton. I don't mean to blame you. I know you did it out of kindness."
Easton's voice pulled Meredith back from her thoughts. She looked at him and smiled, "Your father is
injured now. We should try our best not to bother him."
Hearing this, Easton breathed a sigh of relief. "Mom, actually, you still care about dad, don't you?"
Hearing this, Meredith got stunned and did not answer.
But Easton could tell what she was thinking from her reaction.
She did care about his father, but she had misgivings.
What should he do to help his mother get rid of such resistance...
"Mom, I'm going to see dad later. Would you like to go with me?"
Easton thought that he was their child so that he should act as a bond between them. So he invited
Meredith to visit Derek together.
After hesitating for a while, Meredith refused, "I... Never mind. Your grandmother will have an operation
tomorrow. I have to accompany her today."
Meredith's mind was in a mess. She had made up her mind to cut off all contact with Derek due to
Evelyn.
But now, Meredith knew about the things Evelyn had done and that Derek helped her secretly even
when he was injured. Meredith wondered if she would regret her ruthlessness in front of him.
So she simply chose to escape.
Seeing that Meredith was unwilling to go, Easton felt a little helpless. Afraid that he would pester her to
go there, Meredith wavered again. She quickly called the driver to send Easton there.
Easton arrived at the hospital where Derek was. As soon as he entered, he saw Derek sitting on the
bed and flipping through the documents with his right hand, not idle at all.
"Dad, come on. You're still working. Are you a workaholic?"
Easton couldn't help but complain that his father should be dealing with business in such a situation
like an iron-made robot. Anyway, he couldn't learn this kind of spirit.
"Aren't you a little presumptuous because you have been with your mother recently and no one
disciplines you?"
Hearing Easton tease him, Derek could not help but retort, though he was not angry.
This kid had been a little arrogant lately.
"Dad. I just want you to rest well."
Easton immediately became timid and walked over with a smile. "Fiona's mother came to see her
today. Thank you, dad."
Derek nodded. As soon as Easton finished his words, he immediately had someone do it. How could
that woman refuse to negotiate with a project and the conditions of priority cooperation with the NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Xaviers?
"Yes, I see." Derek didn't take it too seriously.
"I told mom about it, but she behaved strangely."
Hearing this, Derek looked up. His face that had been expressionless suddenly put on a serious look.
"What happened?"
"I thought mom would be angry at me for asking you to get involved in this matter, but she didn't.
Instead, she said she wanted to thank you."
Derek became restless.
He hadn't intended to tell Meredith about it. It was a piece of cake for him. Moreover, he was afraid that
if she knew it, she would think that he was officious.
Now it seemed that Meredith didn't really hate everything about him from the bottom of her heart.
Did she have to do that because of Evelyn?
Thinking of this possibility, Derek felt better.
"Well, Easton. What do you think of your mother's attitude to me now?"
"I think mom still cares about you. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken us to see you in such a hurry
that day. And she just said that you were hurt so that we shouldn't bother you. But now she seems to
be a little embarrassed. Dad, please think of a way. After all, you're a man, right?"
