"What if you're lying to me?" Josiah's grandmother glared at him and added, "Who knows that you might simply get a pregnant lady to trick me."

Josiah felt the corners of his lips twitching.

He did not expect that it would be this hard to persuade and convince his grandmother.

"I didn't." Josiah shook his head helplessly.

The Shelby's mansion was located in the rich people's area and to reach outside the area, one would need to bypass a long private route from the mansion.

There were no public transport services and one would need to walk if not by car.

Walking out of Shelby's mansion, the rain started pouring down heavily.

She had no choice but to find a shelter to avoid the heavy rain.

Neither could she return to the mansion nor her rented house, Meredith could only go to the hospital.

She wanted to call for a cab through a cab service on her phone but soon realized that her phone had run out of battery.

She waited for the rain to get smaller but instead, the rain only got h

    "Sorry," Lowering her head, Meredith apologized and walked past them.But the group of men walked closer toward her to block her path. They were laughing creepily, "You're the lady with the burned face? Come on, let us have a look. Hideous women turn us on the most."Meredith was terrified but she stayed calm and tried to move past them."Where do you think you're going in the middle of the night? Come on now, play with us, hmm?" One of the men pulled her back and studied her while laughing sleazily, "Tsk tsk, you are indeed one ugly thing, aren't you? But don't worry, we wouldn't mind."Meredith stammered, "What…what are you guys planning to do?""Something meaningful, of course," Another man grabbed the umbrella in Meredith's hand and pulled her into his arms.Moving his hand over her body while nodding, he said, "Though you look ugly, I must say that you have a nice body figure. It's enough for me and my boys to take turns with you."The men were willing to do more than just

    Josiah was aware that Meredith had been spending most of her time in the hospital."I didn't see Walter driving out though," Alfred asked, puzzled, "And Miss Meredith hadn't been home since this morning. Sir, where did you ask Walter to send Miss Meredith to?"Josiah was slightly startled. Looking at Alfred, he asked, "What did you say? Walter did not give her a ride?""No, he didn't. Walter had taken his leave right after sending you home.""Then who drove Meredith?""There were no records of Lanny and Walter driving anyone this evening. I'm guessing that she had left on her own."Walter was Josiah's personal driver whereas Lanny was in charge of the logistics at the Shelby mansion and Lanny received orders directly from Alfred.Alfred did not even know that Meredith had come home earlier.To be exact, aside from Josiah, no one else knew that Meredith had come home. After all, she was kicked out of the place by Josiah right after Liam dropped her off.Josiah thought that Mere

    The shirt on her body was torn apart and she could feel raindrops hitting on her bare skin.But Meredith did not even feel cold.Her voice had turned hoarse from all the screaming but all she could do was plead and beg with them again, and again. "No, please don't! Please let me go! I'm begging you!"One of the men grabbed her by her hair, whispered into her ear, and warned, "I thought I made it clear that the three of us will let you go if you behave and cooperate with us. If not…we'll have to use brute force and you'd only end up more hurt.""Help…""Save your breath. No one will be able to hear you in this rain."One of the men lowered his head, wanting to kiss her but Meredith knocked her head against his lips, causing him to hiss in pain."What a stubborn b*tch!" The man was slowly getting impatient."I'll go first so hold her tight!" The man said to the other men."Why do you get to go first? I want to go first too.""No, I want to be the first."The three of them star

    He removed his coat and covered Meredith with his coat. Lifting Meredith off the ground, Josiah walked toward his car with Meredith in his arms.Settling her down in the backseat, Meredith suddenly grabbed him and pleaded with him in a shaky voice, "Josiah, don't. Don't leave me alone…"To Meredith, Josiah was someone dangerous too. So why was she asking him for help?Would it change anything? Asking for his help.But at the thought of what those men almost did to her, Meredith could only turn to Josiah, who had also done vile things to her.Josiah stared at the hands holding onto him tightly and then at Meredith who was shivering non-stop, then said, "How am I going to send you to the hospital if you don't let me go?"Meredith immediately let go of her grasp on him.She needed to be at the hospital.Meredith was shivering throughout their drive to the hospital.Josiah got her off from the backseat, carried her in his arms, and strode toward the ER."What happened?"

    "Of course not," Ysabelle responded, "why are you even asking? We must, of course, make sure the adult is safe!"The doctor looked at Ysabelle, puzzled. He was trying to figure out who Ysabelle was.Ysabelle quickly explained, "I'm her sister."Meredith's anxious cries were heard from the ER, "Doctor, I don't have a husband or sister. They're not my family. I am the one who should be deciding whether I want to save the child or not!'"Please listen to me, I need to save the child," Meredith cried.The doctor looked puzzledly at Josiah, "Are you not her husband?"Ysabelle replied in Josiah's stead, "He is the father to the child.""So…do you want to save the child or not?"Ysabelle replied, "No. Meredith's life is more important."The doctor shot a glare at Ysabelle then continued staring at Josiah, waiting for his response.Meredith came running out of the ER, dropped to her knees in front of Josiah's feet, and cried, "Josiah, please don't kill my baby, no, he's also your bab

    After a pause, Josiah pulled into a smirk and replied, "Ysabelle, did it ever occur to you that the baby is my flesh and blood too? Do you really think that it's right for you to be so eager in getting rid of one of Shelby's family bloodlines?"Ysabelle was once again rendered speechless.Gnawing on her lips, she tried to explain herself, "I already told you that I was only thinking of helping you to get rid of Meredith. If you think that's how I think…fine then. I won't say anything anymore."She then pretended to be angry and sat down on the bench in front of the ER.Ysabelle thought that Josiah would say something to make her feel better but Josiah said to her instead, "Ysabelle, you should leave.""Why?""There's no need for you to be here."Ysabelle wondered what Josiah meant. Was he implying that she would cause harm to Meredith?Ysabelle wanted to wait and confirm that Meredith would lose her baby tonight. If not, all of her efforts tonight would have gone to waste.Lo

    To his surprise, Meredith responded as if she had just seen a ghost, pushing him away. "Get away from me you devil! Go away!"She called out to him because she wanted to chase him away? Not because she needed him?The gentleness that Josiah showed to Meredith lasted only for a short while."You're something else, aren't you, Meredith Leighton?"Josiah could not believe that he was actually worried of her being out alone in the rain and in the middle of the night. That was why he drove out to look for her and had even saved her from the group of men who wanted to assault her. He even allowed her to keep the baby…Josiah thought that he must have lost his mind.He turned around and was about to walk away when she grabbed onto his sleeves.Looking back at her, Josiah realized that she was awake.Staring at him with her eyes that were welled up with tears, she sobbed, "Where is my baby? Did you get rid of him?"Josiah's gaze clouded. Nodding, he replied flatly, "Yeah, I've gotten

    "Why?" Meredith looked nervous.Meredith guessed that something was not right when Josiah agreed for her to keep the child.She guessed that Josiah must be up to no good."Because of my grandmother." Staring at Meredith who was looking at him with that innocent face of hers, Josiah scoffed, "Meredith Leighton, aren't you waiting for this moment to happen when you tried so hard to get pregnant with my child? Waiting for my grandmother to accept you into the Shelby family? But let me make this clear, even though I respect and care about my grandmother, I would not marry a slag simply because of a child. I will never agree to it, and…""Alright," Meredith cut him off, "you've said this over and over again, aren't you even tired?"Seeing how his face got darker, she then quickly added, "Don't think of getting married into the Shelby family, don't think of meeting your grandmother, don't let your grandmother know that I'm still alive…see? I've got them all memorized."Josiah responded

    Back in the bedroom on the second floor, Liam pulled Ivy into the bathroom to take a bath together.Ivy allowed him to take off her clothes and pulled her to stand under the water.Liam helped her take a bath and asked, "How is it? Is everything okay?""It's not bad." Ivy said, "I didn't expect your parents to welcome me so warmly."Liam looked at her proudly, with the water still flowing down from his head. "Of course! You should thank the guy that has good taste. How can they dislike a girl of my choosing?"Ivy smiled and said, "Okay, previously...""Don't mention the previous things, let them pass." Liam interrupted her.Ivy was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, it's all over.""Yes. From now on, there is only happiness." Liam lowered his head and whispered in her ear, and kissed her lips……Meredith and Josiah listened in shock to Liam and Ivy's story, while watching the three children chasing and making trouble outside the floor-to-ceiling window.They were all

    Ivy raised her hand and touched the top of Siena's hair. "God treated me well, and gave me back my daughter, and also gave me the child's father.""No, you're wrong." Liam smiled and said, "God treated me well and sent the child and the child's mother back to my arms.""Oh, spare me." Madam Sheldon shook her head unbearably.Madam Sheldon finally believed that Siena was her own granddaughter.She excitedly hugged Siena into her arms, and she burst into tears with joy. "Great, our Sheldon family finally has a granddaughter! Great!""Grandma, you like Siena, right?" Siena asked sweetly."Nonsense! Of course, Grandma likes Siena. Grandma has always dreamed about a little grandson or a little granddaughter." Madam Sheldon choked as she said.Liam and Ivy looked at each other and smiled.After hugging Siena excitedly for a while, Madam Sheldon released her, and looked at her again. "Now that you mentioned it, she looks a lot like Liam. Look at her nose, her ears...right? Am I righ

    "You even helped me get dressed before you left!" Liam pinched her chin. "Ivy, aren't you embarrassed saying these things?""You asked me.""...""If I didn't help you get dressed, you might be so stupid that you don't even know that you slept with someone, right?""Ivy!" Liam gritted his teeth. "You stole my seed, and you dare to laugh at me for being stupid?""Isn't it stupid?" Ivy was not afraid of him. She raised an eyebrow at him deliberately. "Liam, think about it. Were you being stupid that night?"Liam was silent.Yes, he was really stupid.He was so stupid that he was too embarrassed to admit it. He did not even have the face to mention it in front of Josiah.Looking at the woman in front of him, he wanted to laugh and be mad at the same time.He did not want to say anything. He just wanted to use actions to prove how angry he was, how excited, happy, and...Countless emotions were intertwined in his body, causing him to bow his head and kiss her lips fiercely.Ivy

    "Okay, I'm sorry." Ivy got up and walked around in front of him, sitting on his lap and hugging his neck with a smile. "Do I need to make up for you as well? Say sorry to you?""Yes, of course.""I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you for so long. I shouldn't have kept the news about Siena's from you until now, okay?""Do you think I'll let you off with just that?" Liam was not satisfied."Then what do you want?""The rest will be paid in the evening.""Okay, double compensation," Ivy responded generously.Hearing her say that, Liam was extremely satisfied.He did not mind his daughter's presence at all. He instructed her, "Siena, turn around, I'm going to kiss Mommy.""Why can't I see you kiss Mommy?" Siena was puzzled."Because your Mommy will be shy.""Oh, okay then." Siena turned around wisely."I'm not shy, it's you who is shy." Ivy held Liam's handsome face and kissed him on the lips.Liam was moved for a second, and when he tried to dee

    The adoptive parents expressed their understanding. They waved their hands and said, "It's alright. If it were me, I'd be crying happy tears too.""Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, you don't have to be so polite. Otherwise, we will be even more embarrassed," the adoptive father said.The adoptive mother held Siena, who seemed a little lost. She pulled Siena in front of Ivy and said softly, "Siena, I'm sorry, Mommy never told you that Ivy is your biological mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Really? Is Mommy Ivy my biological mother? Did she give birth to me?""Yes. Mommy wouldn't just pass you to a random stranger, right?" The adoptive mother smiled and said, "Siena, you will be able to spend time with your biological mommy in the future. Isn't that great?"Siena nodded, then stretched out her palm and gently stroked Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my biological mommy?""Siena!" Ivy suddenly pulled Siena into her embrace."

    Siena's adoptive parents expressed that they understood. They waved their hands and said, "It's fine. If it were me, we would cry happy tears too." "Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, don't say such a thing. If not, we will be even more embarrassed," Siena's adoptive father said.Siena's adoptive mother pulled Siena, who did not know much about what was happening, over to Ivy's side and gently said, "Siena, I'm sorry. I have never told you that Ivy is your real Mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Are you serious? Mommy Ivy is my real Mommy? The one that gave birth to me?""Yes, if not, how could I simply give you to any other person?" Siena's adoptive mother said with a smile, "In the future, you will be living with your real Mommy. Are you happy?"Siena nodded before reaching her hand out and touching Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my real Mommy?""Siena!" Ivy suddenly hugged her."Darling, I have been looking for you for s

    Siena's adoptive parents looked at each other and smiled.The kitchen was calling them to take their seats.Liam got up and said, "Come, let's eat and talk."Then, he said to Siena, "Siena, go get Daddy and Mommy to eat. They must be hungry."Siena happily brought her adoptive parents to take their seats. The dinner was in the garden. They ate and talked at the same time. The entire process was pleasant.Toward the end, Siena's adoptive mover suddenly got up and walked over to Ivy. She looked at her deeply and said after a while, "Ivy, there is a secret I have been hiding from you for a very long time.""What is it?" Ivy saw how serious she was. She could not help but feel the severity of it."Siena…" Siena's adoptive mother paused for a while before saying, "Siena is the baby that you have been looking for all these years."Ivy was stunned. Liam was stunned too.Ivy was feeling uneasy. Blood was rushing to her head. Shock, delight, surprise, excitement, all of the emotions ga

    Ivy heard what Liam said and looked out at the door.When she saw that it was Siena's adoptive parents, she was instantly stunned."They are the guests that you mentioned?""Yes." Liam stood next to her and smiled. He said, "They said they hoped that they could see Siena one more time.""Is that so? That's great." Ivy held Siena's hand and walked out.Outside the door, Siena's adoptive parents were extremely friendly. "Hello! Ivy! Haven't seen you in a while!""Hello." Ivy welcomed them. "Welcome."They looked at Siena behind Ivy. "Hello, Siena. It's been a while."Siena was so anxious she was almost in tears. She said with reddened eyes, "I don't want to go back! I don't want to!"Seeing how Siena was against them, they looked awkward. From there, one could infer how irresponsible they were of their adopted daughter previously.Ivy ruffled Siena's head and said softly in her ears, "Siena, don't be afraid. Your adoptive parents are here to send you off because you're about to

    Ivy cleared her throat. She ruffled Siena's head. "Don't listen to your Daddy. How could I be tired? Furthermore, taking care of you is the happiest and proudest thing I have ever done.""Really? Mommy, you really like me that much?""I do."Siena laughed happily."Let's go. We'll head home." Ivy held Siena's hand and they walked under the sycamore tree."Mommy, has Daddy gone back?""Not yet," Ivy said, "Daddy said he wants to give us a surprise.""Oh, that's great. I don't want Daddy to leave us.""Why? Do you like Daddy?""I do." Siena nodded. "Also, with Daddy here, you will be much happier. I like to see you being happy."Ivy saw Siena's face under the sun. She could not help but be moved. Siena was too understanding and caring.She suddenly thought of her own daughter. If she was still around, she would be Siena's age. She wondered whether she was as caring as Siena.At that thought, the smile on her face faded a little."Mommy, look! There are two birds!" Siena sudd
