As long as Josiah never gave up on Yena, Yena would gain consciousness one day.Leah thought about it while gently pushing the door to the master bedroom.When she saw a bared back facing her filled with kiss marks, only covered by a thin cover on her waist, Leah was surprised yet secretly delighted.She never thought that Josiah would love Yena so much that even up till that point he would still make love to her."Men are so inconsiderate. Doesn't he know how to cover Yena properly?" Leah smiled and muttered to herself. She went around to the other side of the bed. She grabbed the covers of the naked woman and was about to tuck her properly.The next second, Leah immediately stopped what she was doing.She looked at the woman on the bed in surprise. Although half her face was destroyed, Leah quickly recognized that the woman who had made love with Josiah a moment ago was not Yena but Meredith! "Why is it you!?" Leah yelled out instinctively. She threw the cover off the bed.M
Leah was so furious she was at a loss for words. "What do you mean by that?""Do you not understand or are you just blind? Look at my face. It's already ruined, yet Josiah insisted on prisoning me by his side." Meredith looked at her and continued, "I also want to know. Does he love Yena? If he loves her, why would he force himself on me while she's still unconscious?""You!" Leah was infuriated. "Just because you can climb into Mister Josiah's bed, are you being smug right now?""Miss Leah, you're wrong." Meredith still remained calm. "I hope more than you that Josiah loves Yena deeply. It's best if he could immediately get married to her, then live happily ever after.""Then, what next?" Suddenly, Josiah's cold voice came from the door. "Then you can openly sell your body and earn money, is that it?"Two of them in the room immediately looked at the door.Leah immediately changed her attitude. She respectfully greeted Josiah, "Sir."Meredith looked at Josiah, then at Leah. She
When Leah heard what Meredith said, she jumped and immediately left.In the end, Leah found her daughter's room in the innermost guest room.Looking at her daughter's quiet face, she was heartbroken and angry at the same time. She was angry at how useless her daughter was for not seizing such a good opportunity. If she was not unconscious, she would have been Missus Shelby already."Yena, when are you going to come around? If you still don't wake up, Mister Josiah is going to be taken away by other women," Leah said heartbrokenly.As usual, Yena could not hear her, nor did she react in any way."Yena, why were you so silly back then? Why did you have to interfere in that evil woman's matter? What does Meredith having an affair have to do with you? Couldn't you have just stayed away from her?"Look at you right now. Meredith has already started a new life, yet you can't even open your eyes. It was not worth it."Yena, I only have you left. If you keep lying there like that, wha
"No matter what, we'll talk about it when she comes around," Josiah said.Leah nodded. "Hmm, get Yena to wake up first, then we'll talk."After a moment of silence, Leah said once again, "I remembered when Yena saved you from the water, she passed out due to a high fever for a few days. Back then, everyone thought that she wouldn't wake up, but she came around after three days. I'm sure this time would be like this too. God would definitely look after her.""I'm sure.""By the way, Sir, I have thought about it, why don't I stay here and help out at home? I want to stay by Yena's side and take care of her."Leah was still talking when Josiah's mind was distracted. He saw Meredith approaching the main gate. His anger rose as she got closer to the gate."Sir," Leah called out with emphasis once again.Then only Josiah came to his senses. "What is it?""I said, I want to stay and take care of Yena. What do you think about it?""No need," Josiah said, "Miss Leah, you should retire
Leah could not help but mock, "Miss Meredith, weren't you just boasting to me this morning? Why have you ended up doing Yena's laundry?"Meredith paused her actions for a while. She said without lifting her head. "Yes, not only do I have to do Yena's laundry, but I also have to clean her up, change her clothes, and do other things too.""So, Mister Josiah got you back to seek revenge on you for your affair back then.""Yes, so please don't think otherwise, Miss Leah."Meredith wrung the clothes in the basin. She got up and looked at Leah. "But, I'm quite curious. Miss Leah, do you really believe that I was the one that pushed Yena down the stairs? Or are you only using this chance to get rid of me?""What do you mean by that? You didn't push Yena down the stairs? I saw the video.""Of course, it was not me," Meredith said and nodded. "But, it's fine. Even that idiot, Josiah, would not believe me, how would you believe me? Just treat me as the culprit then."Naturally, Leah did n
"Meredith always had tricks up her sleeves, right? Back then, she was the one that insisted on getting married to Josiah. Miss Leah, you have to be careful.""I will. Thank you for warning me, Ysabelle."Ysabelle said, "Miss Leah, Yena, and I were almost like sisters growing up together. You don't have to thank me.""Yes, for the past few years, only you treat my Yena the best," Leah said gratefully.Ysabelle smiled and headed upstairs to see Yena delightedly. At night, when Josiah returned, he found out that Ysabelle was there too. Ysabelle saw how he did not have a hint of surprise or welcome on his face, so she took the initiative to say, "Josiah, I was discharged today, so I just stopped by to see Yena.""Hmm," Josiah calmly responded.Ysabelle took his trench coat from his hands and smiled lightly. She said, "Josiah, isn't it the weekend today? Why are you not resting at home?""I had something going on.""It has been raining today, it's a little cold outside. Drink some
Ysabelle stood up from the chair and held onto Leah, who was so furious she was trembling. "Miss Leah, what happened? What happened to Yena?""It's her! She was the one that did something to Yena!" Leah pointed her trembling finger at Meredith. "Meredith, how could you be so cruel? It's not enough that you pushed Yena down the stairs and turn her into a vegetable. Why do you even want to harm her while she is unconscious? How could you be so vicious!"Meredith did not understand what Leah was talking about. However, she was sure there was a reason behind it. Ysabelle must have done something again. Also, Meredith was about to be punished for it again.She looked at Josiah and sure enough, Josiah's face was ice-cold. He was glaring at her furiously.Meredith collected her emotions and calmly asked, "Miss Leah, I have never harmed Yena. I wouldn't harm Yena because I hope she comes around quicker than anyone else.""Meredith! Don't you have a guilty conscience when you are saying th
Leah once again pounced at Meredith. She yelled angrily, "Meredith! What on earth did you do to Yena! What harm are you doing to her by pricking her head!""I already said that I didn't do it. Can't you look into it properly before hitting and yelling at me?" Meredith was instantly in a brawl with Leah.Leah was old, naturally, she was not as strong as Meredith. She was shoved to the ground by Meredith.Leah lay on the floor and yelled while sobbing, "How despicable! What on Earth did Yena do for you to do that to her? My poor Yena!"Then, Leah crawled over to Josiah's feet. She tugged and swayed his pants sleeve and begged, "Sir, my Yena should not have saved you back then. She should not have accepted your love. If not, she wouldn't have been harmed over and over again!"Ysabelle went over and helped Leah up while saying to Josiah, "Josiah, quickly get the doctors to check if the needles had caused Yena any permanent damage. Meredith has learned how to hurt people with needles b
