The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 20

Unexpectedly, they were acquaintances.

Meredith was sulky and she wasn't willing to talk to them. They were none other than Clara and her niece Lily.

In those days, Clara succeeded in marrying her father, which brought great benefit for Clara's family. Lily had ground her down to display friendliness to Clara when she was racked with pain.

What a coincidence! She bumped into them here.

"Meredith?" Clara was surprised to see her.

Wasn't Meredith supposed to suffer in the Xaviers? Shouldn't she be limbless? Why was her face ruddy and shiny, and she looked much better than the day she left. She didn't look like she had been tortured at all.

After Meredith returned to the Xaviers, Clara cursed her to die there every day, so her daughter could live a carefree life.

Now, seeing Meredith was alive and well, she felt suppressed in her heart and was uncomfortable.

"Why are you here?" Lily thought Meredith was still in prison, asking in an arrogant tone.

"You can be here, why can't I?" Meredith replied bluntly.

Lily could come. Why couldn't she?

"You thought you were the eldest Miss of the Masons?" Lily was very angry. What she hated the most was Meredith's arrogant and calm expression. She was just a prisoner, so how could she have the guts to throw her weight about?

"What difference whether I am a miss or not? I come here to buy something. If I can afford it, does my family background matter?"

Meredith turned around to look at the shop assistant, who was watching the show, "Excuse me. I took a fancy to this dress first. Please ask them to return it to me."

Meredith wasn't going to argue with anyone. It was just a dress. But seeing Lily's aggressive manner, she didn't want to tolerate it anymore.

"Can you afford it?" Lily sneered. Clara couldn't help but smile, but she put on a gentle and generous expression, "What nonsense, Mer, you just got out of prison. How can you get money to buy such expensive clothes?"
