"No!" When Ava heard this, she even stopped wiping her tears anymore. She trembled and said, "Don't
tell anyone about Meredith's matter."
If this incident angered K, then she would be over for real.
"If we make it public, then our the Masons' reputation will also be damaged. No way."
"How kind Ava is. At this time, she's still thinking about the Masons and pleading for her ungrateful
sister. Oh, I shouldn't have let her out. I should let her die in prison. What a jerk."
Clara sighed as well. Wesley looked at his little daughter's reddened and swollen eyes and took a deep
puff of his cigarette, "I'm going to look for her now. No matter what, I want to minimize the impact on
Ava."
After saying that, Wesley walked out.
The Howards
Leo knelt in the study, his eyes were filled with fear and panic.
H had believed Ava's lies, thinking that under the guidance of the public relations company, there would
be no problem. Who would have thought that it went wrong!
Not only did his personal reputation suffer, but some rival companies used it to attack him after they
knew. Now, the Howards was in a complete mess.
"Do you know that the Xaviers has withdrawn their investment? Our efforts in the past few months are
all over because of you and that precious fiancée of yours. Not only that, but when this news comes
out, the stock price of the Howards will surely plummet, and the market value of several hundred million
will be gone."
Leo's lips moved, but he didn't say anything. He didn't expect the consequences to be so serious.
Mr. Howard looked at him and said with hatred, "I thought you and that Ava would not have a good
ending from the beginning. A woman who even dared to steal her sister's fiancé, what kind of good
person could she be... It's only you who treated her as a pure and kind good girl."
"Today, the company will announce that you and Ava have already broken off the engagement, but we Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
haven't announced it earlier just for the sake of her career development. So you two just break up like
this."
After Leo heard this, he said no objection. When he thought that Ava had caused all the trouble, he felt
that breaking up was not enough to vent his anger. He wanted to go to her place and humiliate her to
vent his anger, but now it was all he could do.
Meredith went to work normally, and when she arrived at the company, she was relieved to find that
people had not cast any strange glances at her.
Following Derek up to the top floor, she was about to do her usual cleaning work. Suddenly, Derek
stopped her.
"In the future, you don't have to do this anymore."
He had arranged for Meredith to come over to clean up mainly to make her retreat when she faced
such difficulties, also not to let her live too comfortably.
But now he changed his mind. He wanted Meredith to learn something. At least, she should be able to
protect herself when she was in trouble.
"Then, what am I going to do?" Meredith was a little uneasy and felt that Derek's words would cause
trouble to her.
"You can learn how to handle your work from Damian." Derek thought about it, and he didn't want
Meredith to go anywhere he couldn't control, so he made such arrangements.
"Really..." Meredith couldn't believe her ears. Although Damian was nominally just Derek's assistant, he
was very capable.
If she could follow him, she would definitely learn a lot of useful things. Since Meredith came out of
prison, she had always wanted to learn some skills to support herself in society, but she had no
chance. Now, this opportunity had come?
"Will I lie to you?" Derek glanced at her unhappily, as if expressing dissatisfaction for her suspicions.
"No, no, I just can't believe it."
She was afraid that Derek would change his mind if he was unhappy, so Meredith quickly shook her
head, and then, felt a little embarrassed and said, "Well, thank you."
This opportunity might not be a big deal for others, but it was important to her.
Was this the beginning of her new life?
"Well."
Derek looked at Meredith's blushing cheeks. Because she was happy, her eyes shone brighter than the
sunlight reflected through the glass at the moment. Meredith at this time gave him a different feeling
than usual.
She was no longer so gloomy, full of resentment towards the world, but full of hope.
In fact, this feeling was not bad.
Derek was distracted and she found his unusual, and he returned to his usual expressionless face,
"But if you don't do well and Damian doesn't want to take you, I won't plead for you."
"I will definitely do well." Meredith was very motivated and immediately went to look for Damian.
Damian was not surprised to be told about this, and he even couldn't help but complain about Derek's
fickle ways of doing things.
He just wanted to make Meredith happy and learn something, and he also wanted her to stay under his
nose and not to run around. So Derek tactfully made Meredith his disciple...
How dare he could refuse?
"Damian, please give me some advice from now on. If there's anything wrong, just say it." Meredith
bowed politely to Damian, looking like a good student who was modest to learn.
Damian nodded in a pretentious manner.
Damian did as Derek had instructed and had no reservations to Meredith. However, since she had
never been in contact with such matters of the company, she did not learn quickly, but her attitude had
always been exceptionally good.
Even when she was laughed at for asking a stupid question, she kept a serious record of it in her
notebook, and gradually Damian also taught her with great care.
When they were busy doing things, time passed quickly.
After work, Meredith was still immersed in the knowledge that she had never had a chance to learn
before. As she walked, she was about to take a bus to go home. Suddenly, a shrill hoot pulled her back
from her thoughts.
Wesley looked at her with a sullen face, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Meredith stood there unmoving. She did not expect Wesley to take the initiative to "condescend" to see
her. After all, he had considered her as a disgrace for the past few years, and he thought that even
taking a glance at her was dirty.
Did something go wrong?
"Can I help you?" Meredith said calmly.
Seeing that she didn't obey him, Wesley was very angry, "How can we talk on the street? Get in the car
and we'll talk in private."
"Why can't we talk on the street? Is Mr. Mason going to talk about something shameful? If that's the
case, I'd rather not listen."
Meredith looked at him coldly, and now he was lecturing her in the posture of an elder. Didn't Wesley
find it funny?
He thought that after all the disgusting things he had done, she would still be so shameless and
volunteered to be humiliated by him?
This time, it must be for Ava again.
Wesley wanted to get out of the car and slap Meredith so that she could know what it meant to respect
her elders, but this was not the time to be impulsive.
In the afternoon, the Howards unilaterally announced the annulment of the engagement, and privately
said that the upcoming film which Ava would cast, funded by the Howards, was going to change the
female lead.
It was a blockbuster movie that Ava had prepared for more than a year. The news made her so angry
that she fainted and was still lying in the hospital.
