Chapter 618
"Are you sure you want to tell everyone today? I'm going to see if my makeup smudged or not..."
Ellie was so nervous that she started muttering.
Meredith was amused. It turned out that the person who was always perfectly calm would have a panic
moment.
"It's all good. Don't be nervous. We'll say it sooner or later."
Meredith patted Ellie on her back to comfort her.
Ellie nodded and the two of them walked into the ward.
Amelia was watching TV. She smiled at them as she saw them coming in.
Meredith walked to Amelia. "Mom, I have something important to say."
Amelia was watching the TV show and didn't pay much attention to her words, but when she saw
Meredith's serious expression, she began to listen. "What's wrong, Mer? Why are you so serious?"
"Mom, the thing is, on the first day I found out that you were sick, I went for a bone marrow test. But I
found that we couldn't match at all, and even the match was similar to that of a stranger. The doctor
suggested we have a paternity test and the result was... I'm not your daughter."
"Wait, wait, Mer, what are you talking about? This is not funny."
Amelia was a woman who loved her children more than her own life. When she was suddenly told that
Meredith was not her daughter, she couldn't believe it at all.
"Mom, don't worry. Keep listening. I finally found your child through tireless efforts. She donated her
bone marrow for your bone marrow transplantation."
Now Amelia completely understood and immediately looked at Ellie.
She knew that Ellie was the bone marrow donor, but she thought that it was because Ellie was kind-
hearted.
However, it turned out that she was her own daughter.
"Ellie... Ellie is my own daughter?"
Amelia looked at Ellie's face carefully, and tears welled up in her eyes.
In that case, it was true that the first time they met, she felt that Ellie looked familiar. It made sense if
Ellie was her daughter.
"Mom, that's all I want to say. I'll leave it to you."
Under the circumstance, Meredith knew that she didn't have to stay here, so she went out and left the
space for the mother and daughter who had been reunited after a long time. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
After doing this, she felt relieved, though, it was mixed with a little upset.
She had occupied Amelia's love for so many years, and it was time to return to Ellie. But from her
heart, she was reluctant to part with it.
But soon, Meredith hid the gloom in her eyes and went straight to the hospital where Derek was.
The answer was obvious though she had been struggling for so long.
There was no way she could leave Derek alone.
If she left without saying and doing anything, her heart would stay here.
Moreover, seeing Ellie and her mother recognize each other, she realized that once you missed
something, you could never make it up. She didn't want to have any regrets.
Meredith strengthened her resolve. When she reached the hospital, she immediately went upstairs and
visited Derek's ward.
However, before entering, Meredith grew a little nervous. Her hand paused by the door for a long time
before she made up her mind to knock.
Derek heard a knock on the door and answered faintly, "Come in."
Meredith pushed the door and walked in.
Once entered, She saw Derek leaning against the headboard with a laptop in front of him, busy with his
work.
Meredith frowned and took his things away quickly. "You're hurt. Can't you rest for a while? Is work that
important?"
Derek was taken aback when he heard this, for he had never expected Meredith to rush up
straightforward.
However, he was not irritated at all. Instead, he was pleasantly surprised.
In the past, Meredith would never have shown so much concern for him. She was always polite and
reserved, and he couldn't get rid of a faint sense of alienation.
But now that she's willing to give him rules, does that mean that she cares about him?
Derek stared at Meredith without answering.
Meredith felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at her. She looked into his dark and deep eyes.
In those eyes, there was a deep affection for her, without disguise.
Meredith's heart beat fast. She bit her lip and sat down beside the bed. "I'm here to say something to
you."
"Tell me, I'm all ears."
Derek nodded quickly.
"I heard about your injuries..."
Meredith didn't finish her sentence. She was afraid that repeating this would hurt Derek's confidence.
After all, this man had always been proud. And now as he remained so nonchalant faced with such a
thing, Meredith was afraid that he was pretending.
"So, I'm not thinking about leaving. I'm going to stay and take care of you until you recover."
Although Meredith's tone was calm, her heart was in turmoil. As soon as she finished speaking, her
ears turned red.
She said it would be until Derek recovered, but according to the news, his injury would probably never
be cured in his life.
That was to say indirectly that she wanted to stay and be with him forever.
She had actually considered this decision for a long time and had only recently made up her mind.
She felt that Derek was no longer the flawless man he used to be. As long as she worked hard, one
day she would reach a similar height.
In this way, they would not be so tired when being together.
Hearing Meredith's words, Derek had mixed feelings.
On the one hand, he was moved, for he didn't expect that Meredith would like to look after him for the
rest of his life.
How lucky he was to have her stay with him.
On the one hand, it was guilt.
After all, the injury was fake. He didn't know if Meredith would be angry when she found out the truth.
