"Thank you, Lily." Meredith was a little touched. "But just like you said, Josiah would never change his mind, so how could I let you kneel on my behalf?"To not cause Lily any trouble, Meredith immediately walked to the courtyard and knelt there.Although the rain was not heavy that day, the drizzle was still uncomfortably hitting her body.Meredith could not help but shudder. Her mind was filled with Nia and her mother. If she was to pass out again this time, what would happen to them? After the doctor's thorough check-up, he stated that the needle injuries did not harm Yena.Ysabelle secretly let out a sigh of relief. She tugged on Leah and comforted her, "Miss Leah, you can relax. The doctors said that those are just normal wounds. Perhaps Meredith just simply pricked Yena to take her anger out on her."Leah was still crying. She swore, "Even if she is angry, she can’t treat Yena this way! Yena is already pitiful enough. Other than these needles, I don't even know what else
"Why are you not dead yet!? Why are you not dead yet!?" Leah pulled Meredith's hair and wanted to continue knocking her head when Meredith counterattacked. She pulled Leah's hair and dragged her to the ground.Leah was furious. She spat angrily, "How dare you fight back! I will kill you!""Miss Leah, enough!" Meredith pinned Leah to the ground with all her might. Her quivering lips said into Leah's ears, "Look at the smug face behind the window downstairs. Look at it properly!"Although Leah was so furious that she wanted to kill Meredith, she still subconsciously looked at the window.It was Ysabelle. When Ysabelle met with Leah's eyes, she immediately retracted her expressions and instinctively retreated behind the curtains.Meredith sneered with reddened eyes. "Miss Leah, have you got a good look yet? The real perpetrator was never me! It was Ysabelle! The person who wants to get rid of Yena is also not me! It's Ysabelle! Josiah doesn't believe me because he hates me. He thinks
When Liam heard that Meredith was punished, forced to kneel under the rain for a few hours and was even beaten up by Leah yet Josiah still did not want to let her in, Liam could no longer just sit and watch.He immediately drove over to Josiah's mansion. When Lily saw him, she stopped him by the door and said worriedly, "Mister Liam, Sir might get even angrier if you interfere, so…please be careful."Lily would not have looked for Liam if she did not see how Meredith was injured and kneeling outside for so long. She was worried that Meredith would get sick like the last time too."Don't worry, I'll be careful of my ways," Liam said before heading to the backyard. He saw that Meredith was still kneeling in the rain. Her forehead was clearly injured too.Liam headed upstairs and kicked Josiah's study open. In the study, Ysabelle had only placed Josiah's supper down a minute ago and she was coaxing Josiah to have some food.When they heard the door kick open, the two of them jumped.
Ysabelle gritted her teeth. She held back for the time being.Josiah sneered. He suddenly flipped over and pinned Liam to the ground, using the same posture as Liam before."If not, who do you think I should revolve my life around? Meredith, that b*tch?""No matter what, Meredith was once your wife?""Is that so? But Yena rescued me when I was young. She turned into a vegetable because Meredith cruelly harmed her. She might have nothing to do with me, but she should be the person I should protect the most, also the person I owe the most to.""Then, you should just protect and pay back the person whom you owe the most to. Why are you hurting Meredith? You were once husband and wife! Can't you even just let her go?"Furthermore!" Liam waved and pointed at Ysabelle. "Why are you keeping such a woman in your house? Are you worried that Meredith won't be tortured to death by you, so you found another person to torture her together?"Ysabelle was about to ask Liam to shut up when Josi
"I'll find a way to help you rescue your mother out." Liam's face darkened. "Meredith, if you stay here any longer, I'll go up and beat Josiah up again. I'll punch him until he comes to get you back in."When Meredith heard what Liam said, she immediately headed back in with his help.The two of them just entered when they saw Josiah, who was supposed to be upstairs, sitting on the sofa. His face was covered in bruises too. Ysabelle was about to help him put on some medication.When they saw Liam, Ysabelle deliberately opened her arms wide in front of Josiah and looked at Liam in fear. "What do you want to do!? I won't let you harm Josiah again."Liam coldly looked at her and looked past her at Josiah's face. "As long as he doesn't stop me, I won't hurt him."Josiah's gaze, on the other hand, had always been on Meredith's face.Meredith was pale from being under the rain. The wounds on her forehead have changed their shape from the rain. Her hair was constantly dripping water.J
"If she's dead, drag her out!" Josiah angrily interrupted Lily.The last time Meredith passed out, he was anxious to death, yet it turned out that he was tricked by her, producing a disgusting paternity report.This time, he will not fall for her tricks anymore. He will never believe her again.…Meredith had a fever again. This time, there were no doctors to treat her. She could only rely on Lily's medicine.Ysabelle stood by the door of the storage room. Looking at the half-dead Meredith, she was elated.When she saw Leah coming downstairs, Ysabelle immediately went forward. "Miss Leah, is Yena doing well today?""The doctor says that she is doing well. She is showing signs of coming around.""Really? That's amazing!" Ysabelle said delightedly, "Miss Leah, congratulations. Yena is about to come around.""Yes, I have been waiting for this day to come," Leah said with a smile. Then, she pulled Ysabelle's hand and said, "by the way, Ysabelle, I'm going to the hospital to get so
Due to Leah being too nervous, her phone fell to the ground with a thud.Ysabelle, in the bedroom, jumped in fright. She paused what she was doing. She did not look back, nor did she dare to look back. She thought quickly as to who could be there?Lily had gone out to do groceries, and Leah was out to get medicine. Alfred would not be upstairs, so…it was Meredith?If it was Meredith, Ysabelle was not worried one bit, after all, Meredith knew all the bad things she has done, but so what? No one believed Meredith.When she turned around and saw that it was Leah, Ysabelle instantly panicked."M-Miss Leah?" Ysabelle got up from the chair. She forced herself to be calm and asked, "Didn't you say that you were heading to the hospital to get medicine? Why are you back so quickly?"Since when was Leah standing by the door? Did she hear what she said? Did she see the needle in her hand?A series of questions made Ysabelle panic even more."If I did not lie to you that Yena was showing s
Miss Leah wanted to escape but her path was blocked and she could only turn around and rushed upstairs.As soon as her call was answered and before Josiah could say anything, Miss Leah shouted into the phone frantically, "Someone's trying to kill me! Sir, help me! Help me-!"Ysabelle pounced on Miss Leah who was on the stairs, and the phone in her hand was broken into pieces.Struggling, Miss Leah shouted, "Ysabelle killed someone…help…"But her phone was already broken and Josiah, who was on the other end of the phone, could no longer hear her.Glancing at the broken phone, Ysabelle scoffed, "You can save yourself the trouble of shouting for help, your phone is already broken.""You…what are you trying to do?" Seeing how Ysabelle was getting closer to her, Miss Leah scrambled to her feet frightfully and ran upstairs.A sinister look flashed across Ysabelle's face. She had intentionally forced Miss Leah to run upstairs.The mansion had four floors and soon enough, Miss Leah had
