“You got this for me?” “Yeah, it‘s for you. Here, try some of it,” Quinley put one box in Meredith‘s hands
and then started apologizing, “Meredith, when you were in trouble
that year, I was coincidentally out of the country. If I were around back then, I would
have done everything I could to help you. I‘ve been feeling guilty all these years.” She suddenly
grabbed Meredith‘s hands in hers. With tears glistening in her eyes, she
said,” I‘m so sorry.” “Quinley, why are you crying?”
“I…I‘m just glad,” Quinely wiped away the tears in her eyes and went on, “Meredith, I am just very glad
to see you again.” “Even though you don‘t remember me now, I believe that you‘ll remember me again
someday, and we can be like the
best friends that we used to be.”
Meredith was of course happy to hear that as Quinley was the first friend that she had met after she
regained her consciousness.
Smiling, she nodded. “Mm, we will still be good friends in the future.” “Come on now,
try the pudding.” “Okay.” Meredith took a bite and nodded. “This tastes really good. Where did you get
this?” “It‘s from the bakery that you used to love.” “Ah, I don‘t remember it anymore.” Meredith smiled
apologetically.
“That‘s alright, I can bring you there some other time.”
“Okay! Thanks, Quinley!”“Don‘t be a stranger now. Aren‘t we best friends?” Seeing how Quinley and Meredith were getting along
well with each other, Lily was relieved and decided to go back to
her chores.
Meredith packed a whole box of freshly baked cookies for Quinley.
Quinley took a bite of the cookies and exclaimed, “Goodness me. This tastes really
good. You‘re just as good as you were back then.” “Really?”
“Mmhmm,” Quinley held her hands and went on, “you can bake cookies for us the
next time you throw a birthday dinner. I‘m sure Sunny and Wendy would be happy
to see you again.” “Sure.” Meredith did not know who Wendy or Sunny was, but she
simply agreed. Quinley got ready to leave after having the cookies.
And Meredith walked her to the door.
Quinley held Meredith‘s hands in hers and said wistfully, “You don‘t talk to me as
much as you do back then anymore. I can‘t help but feel a bit hurt by it.”
HlIt‘s not that. It‘s just that I don‘t know what to say,” Meredith chuckled apologetically and said, “in fact,
you‘re my only friend now and I am really glad to see you.” “You do? If that‘s the case, I am happy too.”
“Me too.”
Quinley leaned in and gave her a hug. “I‘m leaving now. Take good care of yourself.” “Alright.” Quinley
got into her car. She looked especially stunning driving in that red sports car of hers. Shesubconsciously moved her hands to her face, and she suddenly felt jealous. She too wanted to be
pretty. Meredith subconsciously followed behind the red sports car as it drove out the gate. Quinley
rolled down the car window. “Meredith, go on inside.” “Okay.” Meredith waved at her.
Right then, a group of men and women gathered around Meredith.
Some were holding microphones and some were carrying cameras with them. One of them shouted,
“Mrs. Shelby, we heard that Shelby Group is planning to set up a charitable foundation for kids, is that
true? Meredith was startled by the sudden situation.novelbin
