Chapter 24
The air suddenly froze and the man's face appeared clearly under the bright light. Meredith was
stunned. She moved back a little, with a feeling of being deceived. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
This result was unexpected to her.
She had thought that this man might be anyone she came into contact with, but it never occurred to
her...
It was him!
Snap!
The flashlight was grabbed by the man and threw on the ground. The light flashed and eventually
extinguished. The room was plunged into darkness again. The man's eyes, exposed in the moonlight,
were frighteningly cold.
She should have known it. With so many details, she should have known it was him!
The man grabbed her by the neck, "Meredith, you set me up!"
"You and I, who the hell indeed played the scheme? Derek Xavier!"
Meredith's voice stuck in her throat and said out his name with difficulty. It turned out that this man was
really him. Today, when she was cleaning up the closet, she suddenly found that there was a dummy in
the secret compartment that looked exactly like Derek.
Whether judged by the texture of the skin or the warmth of the body, the dummy could almost pretend
to be a real man. It even could do simple body movements and speak a few words!
In addition to the dummy, there was also the black windbreaker that the man usually wore and a voice
changer!
So every time he appeared, the man lying next to Meredith was actually the dummy!
Every time Derek tried to make a fool of her, he would play such a trick, making her scared and
humiliated!
In order not to let her suspect, he kept saying that he and the Xaviers were separate!
"Derek, do you think it's fun to stage the game of cat and mouse?"
The so-called game of cat and mouse was that when the cat caught the mouse, it did not immediately
eat it or kill it, but let the half-dead mouse escape from its claws. Once the mouse ran away, it would be
caught and tortured again until it was dead.
Under Derek's control, she was nothing but the tortured mouse!
During the day, he pretended to be Derek who was cold and indifferent. At night, he pretended to be a
man who had nothing to do with the Xaviers to make a fool of her and give her hope.
He hated her for crashing into him while driving, so his ultimate goal was to torture her to death like
this!
"How do you want me to die? I'll listen to you. Why torture me like this and make me so scared every
day?"
"Since you found it out, I won't hide it anymore. You are indeed my plaything. Because I hate you, I
don't want you to have a good life. What you destroyed is not just my three years! How can I reconcile
myself to it if I cannot get what I lost in these three years back from you?"
Derek released her neck but pressed her shoulder, "It took my efforts to get you out of prison alive.
How can I let you die so easily? Don't worry. From now on, I will let you live a miserable life!"
With that, he pushed her away heavily. His desire had already faded in this sudden situation. He got up
and left, leaving Meredith curling up in the quilt alone and cried in a low voice.
It turned out that the last person she could trust in the world was also a liar.
She almost naively wanted to entrust herself to him and tried to rely on him!
How ridiculous! She almost fell in love with her enemy!
