Chapter 52
Unable to focus on work, Derek asked his secretary to reschedule all his appointments for the day as he left the office, and headed home to meet with his parents
He knew that his parents were not going to be pleased with him if he showed up there to beg on Evelyn's behalf without proof of her innocence, but this had to be done. Evelyn was innocent and he was not going to let her suffer for this no matter the case.
When he got there, he saw his mother in the living room and after greeting her, he looked around, "Where is Dad!"
"He's in his study. Is there a problem! Why are you here in the middle of a workday?" She asked curiously.
"I wanted to talk to you both about something." Derek said and his mother nodded.
"Let's go join him in his study then," she said, and as she led the way, she looked at him.
"Did you know that the shameless girl from Empowered is the same girl your cousin was going to marry?" his mother asked, and he turned to look
at her.
"How did you know?" Derek asked, wondering when his parents found out about it.
"How else! Michael told us about it last night. Poor Michael. I can't imagine how hard it must have been for him to watch you work with her, yet he kept it to himself because he didn't want to interfere with her career. Too bad for her that I'm not as merciful as Michael. I intend to teach her a lesson. She can't publicly embarrass our family twice and get away with it this time," his mother said as they walked into the study.

Hearing all this, Derek could see that it wouldn't be easy to convince his parents to let Evelyn be. This was exactly what Michael had wanted.
"Derek, what are you doing at home during work hours? I hope it's not because you're still worried about us?" His father when he saw
"I came to talk to you both" Derek said, and his father gestured for him to sit.
"What is wrong?" His father asked after he was seated.
"I heard from the CEO of Empowered that you threatened to file a lawsuit against them if they don't relieve Evelyn of her job," Derek said, and his mother nodded
"Of course. Although losing her job won't be enough to make up for the damage she has done to this family, but that is a start," his mother said firmly.
"I asked that they shouldn't fire her, Derek said and his parents exchanged a glance before looking at him like he had lost his mind,
