Chapter 704
"The red-light district?" Jude looked at her curiously.
"Yeah. John threw her to the red-light district, and she lived there for quite some time. Pierre and I only learned about this after our investigation. From what we know, she quickly became one of the most popular call girls in the district, and many men had to line up just to meet her." Selena paused for a change of breath and continued, "She even learned pole dancing during that time! See, a prideful woman like her refused bargirl work when she was a superstar, but she did it later to survive anyway. She must cherish her life a lot, so why would she risk her life to kill me?"
When Jude learned about the story behind Meredith, she sighed wistfully. "No wonder! None of us could tell that she was Meredith. She looks like an entirely different person."
"She has no close acquaintances here. I believe that Pierre will catch her soon and end things once and for all."
Selena let out a huge sigh of relief when she imagined that scenario. Meredith had been a curse in her life. Had she known that John did not take Meredith's life, she would have killed Meredith herself.
At the same time, Meredith was on the run. Unbeknownst to her, Pierre had also worked hard to place his men everywhere just to ambush her. His men lay in wait at train stations, airports, bus stations, and more. Meredith disguised herself and arrived at the bus station after much difficulty, and to her dismay, she spotted Pierre's man in wait.
Forced to leave the bus station, she fled to a store nearby to take a rest. What should I do now? Pierre has sent out countless men to capture me, which means he is dead set on killing me. What can I do to escape Digton City?
Right when she was in despair, a car appeared in her sight and caught her attention. Why does the car look familiar?
As she narrowed her focus onto the car plate, she was overjoyed to find that it was Jimmy's car.
What is he doing here?
Nevertheless, she hurried out of the store to take a closer look and confirmed that it was truly his car. As if she'd found a lifesaver, she hid beside the car. Soon, Jimmy hurried to his car with his assistant and driver. They were at Digton City for a business meeting that had failed, which made him extremely upset.
When he was about to enter the car, he heard a tiny squeal of a woman from somewhere.
"Who is that?" He immediately checked out the back of the car and noticed Meredith, who'd fallen on her butt. "It's you! Why are you here?"
Meredith had lived at the Astleys' place for a while before this, so Jimmy instantly recognized her. "Meredith, why are you here?"
"Jimmy! It's really you! Finally, a familiar face in Digton! My purse was stolen just now, so I panicked and hurt my ankle."
While complaining, she gently rubbed her ankle, showing off her slender and smooth legs.
"Get into the car now." He subconsciously gulped as he eyed the attractive woman on the ground.
"Jimmy, my ankle hurts. Why don't you help me up?"
He obediently reached out and helped her up. To his surprise, she wobbled and lost her balance before falling right into his arms.
When her soft breasts pressed
against his chest, his Adam's apple
bobbed as he salivated at the
temptation. Truth was, he had had his eyes on her ever since she stayed at his place.
However, due to Megan's presence and the fact that they were all at the Astleys family home, it was inconvenient for him to make a
move, so he had to suppress his
desire for Meredith.
"Thank you, Jimmy." She acted innocently and even patted his chest. Her touch made him feel like he was in heaven.
Dizzy in happiness, he entered the car and ordered, "Head to a hotel. Meredith has hurt her ankle, and she can't walk."Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
The driver stole a glance at Jimmy and immediately understood what was going on. He swiftly drove them to a hotel, whereupon Jimmy entered with Meredith beforethe twe checked into a room.
"Meredith, let me take a look at the injury on your ankle."
Fully aware of what would come next, she took off her shoes for him.
