Tears fell from Meredith's eyes. She could not understand why she was always so unlucky. Right when she found just a sliver of hope, it ended up being taken away in the end.Just a moment ago she felt that she had finally made the right decision and Nia finally could be saved, the next moment, Josiah's grandmother fell to the ground and could most likely fall into a coma.Although she did not directly harm Josiah's grandmother, it still had something to do with her.If she were to let Josiah's grandmother sit down and rest so that she could tell her about Nia, in the end, if she were to enter the washroom, she would not have fallen.It was her carelessness that hurt Josiah's grandmother, it also took away whatever hope Nia had.At that moment, Meredith wished more than anyone else that Josiah's grandmother could come around and get better soon!Josiah loathingly spat, "Meredith, if anything were to happen to Grandma, the Shelbys will not let you go."Tears streamed down her face
Before leaving, Ysabelle clung to Josiah's arm and consoled him, "Josiah, Grandma will be fine. Calm down. I'll make a move first."Josiah ignored her. He merely rubbed his face in annoyance with his hands.Ysabelle and Meredith waited for the lift at the same time. This time, Ysabelle did not absurdly mock or defame her. Meredith found it odd.She snuck a glance at Ysabelle next to her. She saw Ysabelle looking right ahead. She had no intention of saying anything at all.Ysabelle was not a fool. Naturally, she would never bring up matters at that moment. What if she suddenly spoke too much causing Meredith to suspect her?In the end, it was Meredith who spoke first. "I heard that Josiah's grandmother doesn't like you. She has also never wanted you to marry into the Shelbys?""Who said so? She is just afraid that the Leightons passed down the b*tch gene. She was afraid that I would turn out like you, so she told Josiah to be careful." "So, she doesn't accept you." Meredith look
Looking at Josiah in such a haggard state, Meredith could only stop loathing him for a bit. She passed him a cup of warm water.Josiah glanced at her. He did not accept her cup of water. "F*ck off."Meredith did not leave. She also did not insist that he drank water. She merely sat down next to him.A while later, she looked at him and asked, "Are you afraid to lose your family?"Josiah replied to her without any emotions on his face. "Meredith, I am not in the mood to fight with you.""I'm not planning to fight with you.""I don’t have the mood to deal with your pretentiousness either," Josiah said, "if you have any self-awareness, you would know how much you disgust me and you would stay far away from me, because every time I think about how Grandma has not come around, I want to strangle you to death."Meredith could see how much he loathed her. She got up and changed to a further seat away from him and sat down."Also, if Grandma dies, there is no point in keeping the child
"Enough!" Josiah barked, "Both of you, f*ck off right now."Ysabelle glared at Meredith loathingly and looked away. Meredith looked at Josiah and said seriously, "Josiah. I know you never once believe me. You would never believe that Ysabelle was the one who hurt Leah and Yena. Let me warn you if you don't want anything strange to happen to your grandmother, please look after her at all times. Do not let Ysabelle get close to your grandmother or her medical team."Ysabelle was speechless. "Meredith, stop slandering me. Josiah is not an idiot. He won't believe you.""Whether Mister Josiah is an idiot or not depends on what he does," Meredith said, turned, and left.Ysabelle was anxious and furious. She turned to look at Josiah. "Josiah, don't listen to her nonsense. Don't be intimidated by what she said. Meredith is just trying to put the blame on me for hurting your grandmother.""Whatever she said, I don't think it's necessary for you to come here," Josiah said coldly, "For Grand
"Hmm, same old same old."Meredith glanced at Nia in bed. "Taking care of Nia, working to earn some money.""I was talking to Aunt Wren just now. She said that Nia's condition did not improve?""Yes, she's not getting better at all." Meredith sniffled bitterly. To not disturb Nia, she said to Zade, "Zade, why don't we go out to talk? The air here isn't too great.""Okay." Zade nodded. "I initially wanted to come here to see Nia, but she is still asleep. Next time then.""Hmm, she sleeps longer and longer these days."They left Nia's ward and headed for the lift. After what happened previously, Meredith was a little afraid to see Zade again. She did not know what to talk about with him anymore.Everything has become rather uneasy.It was until they left the lift that she only said apologetically, "Zade, back then…I'm sorry. It was my fault.""No. It was my own attitude. I chose to run away. I should be the one who apologizes.""No. Don't ever apologize to me." Meredith waved h
Meredith was speechless.Zade looked at Josiah before looking at Meredith's abdomen. "Are you really pregnant? With Josiah's child?"Meredith nodded awkwardly."Merelyn." Zade no longer looked at Josiah. He merely looked at Meredith and said, "Didn't you already break it up with him a long time ago? Didn't you say you wanted to wait for me to return to get married? Why did you suddenly get pregnant with his child?""I…" Meredith was suddenly a little baffled.Why would Zade suddenly say such a thing? Ever since Zade left, they have never kept in touch. Did Zade do it on purpose so that he could gain back whatever dignity left? However, it was not as if he had never gone up against Josiah before. He knew that he was no match for Josiah.What should she do? Should she protect Zade's ego and deliberately play along with him, or…Meredith looked at Josiah. When her eyes met his ice-cold gaze, she immediately looked away. She said, "I…""Merelyn, after so long, are you still afrai
Zade feigned innocence and said, "Merelyn, you're the one who always asks me to come back and take you away. You're the one who said that you wanted to be with me. Why are you turning back on your words, blaming me instead right now?""I did not. Zade, don't spread such lies.""Merelyn…"Josiah smiled. "It looks like Miss Meredith doesn't dare to do so. Then, she could only by my obedient b*tch."Then, Josiah pulled Meredith into his arms and sneered at Zade, "You want to take her away? Wait until the day you manage to convince her, then we'll see about it."Then, Josiah carried Meredith toward the lift. His rough actions seemed like he had forgotten that she was a pregnant woman. No. It was not that he had forgotten about it. He did not care that she was a pregnant woman at all. After all, this child was not what he wanted. He did not want to keep it. He has even thought that if his grandmother did not come around, he will make her go through an abortion.At that moment, he was
Zade approached Josiah. Josiah raised his eyebrows and mocked, "What? Do you want to fight again?""Mister Josiah, it's inappropriate to fight in a hospital, so I want to change a different way of begging you. I beg you to let Merelyn go, please?" Zade pleaded sincerely, "Merelyn loves me. Her dream was to leave Jehovah City with me. Why would you force her to stay by your side?""You want me to let her go?" Josiah said, "I've already said before. Unless you sleep with her right in front of me and abort the child, then I'll let her go.""You know she can't do it. Why would you force her to do so?""Since she can't do it, that means she doesn't love you enough." Josiah left. He turned back and sneered after taking two steps. "Only those that can't do it will try to blame it on others."He was clear. If Meredith loved him, why did he need to beg him to let her go?Zade gritted his teeth and looked at Josiah leaving. He said, "Wait for me. I'll make Merelyn want to leave with me on
