The first thing that popped up in the post was her photo, the one before the disfigurement. She looked exactly the same as the photo on Maeve's phone last night.Then there was another young man who was looked unfamiliar to Meredith.The man looked very young and was a little handsome. Yoel's name was written under the photo.Meredith held her breath and continued to look down, where the comments were written about the main post... Some said that they heard Mister Josiah and Miss Leighton had a purely commercial marriage, and they had no relationship at all.One of the comments said that this man named Yoel was a gardener in the Shelby family mansion. He was a little handsome, so he attracted Mrs. Shelby, who was alone in her boudoir.One of the comments said that Mrs. Shelby was very good at cooking. She often secretly cooked food for this servant named Yoel.Mister Josiah did not care because he did not like her at first, until one day when Mrs. Shelby was having an affair wi
Lily asked anxiously, "Doctor, is Ma’am alright?""Don't worry, she just fainted, it's not a big deal." The doctor asked, "But why did the Ma’am suddenly inflict self-harm? She didn't seem to have behaved in this way before.""I don't know either." Lily shook her head."It seems that her condition is getting worse." The doctor sighed.After the doctor left, Lily did not dare to leave for a moment and stayed by Meredith's side.Josiah got a call from Lily and got up from the chair when he heard that Meredith had inflicted self-harm. "What did you do to her again?"Lily was taken aback by him, and she said shiveringly, "Sir, we didn't do anything. Ma’am stayed in the room by herself, and suddenly, she started to hurt herself.""Maybe it was because of last night's banquet. Ma’am asked me about Yoel, but I didn't say anything."After hanging up the phone, Josiah pulled the jacket on the back of the chair and walked toward the office door.Mister Wesley greeted him, "Mister Josiah
Mister Wesley coughed dryly and reminded him, "Mister Josiah, how should we deal with the matter between Mister Xander and Miss Xander?"Josiah said bluntly, "Go and buy me flowers from that little girl."Mister Wesley was stunned for a moment, then nodded and walked toward the little girl.Josiah turned around, bent over, and got into the already parked car.Seeing that Josiah did not pay attention to him, Mister Xander hurriedly rushed up, leaned on the car window, and shouted, "Mister Josiah, did you hear what I just said? Please give Xander Corporation a way out, please…”The car window slowly lowered, Josiah turned his face to him and said, "My wife is ill, I have to go back to take care of her. Please excuse me, Mister Xander."President Xander did not know what to say.The window slowly closed.Mister Wesley quickly returned with the flower in his arms.When the car started, Maeve suddenly rushed up and roared into the car, "Josiah, do you think that you're so great jus
Meredith shook her head, "It doesn't hurt.""No matter what happens in the future, you can't hurt yourself, understand?""Understood."Josiah tried to chat with her for a while, and then he felt relieved a little after finding that there was nothing unusual about her.It was not that Meredith was not fine, she just chose a different way of doing things.In the past, she would ask Josiah if she thought of anything. Every time, Josiah would find a bunch of excuses to dispel her doubts.However, she knew that Josiah did this for her own good.However, she did not want him to be so good, especially if she was as bad as the internet said she was.Not only did she have an affair with a servant and became pregnant with an illegitimate child, but she also pushed his first love downstairs, resulting in that woman being in a vegetative state.She could not accept that she was such a vicious woman.Therefore, she will no longer ask Josiah who Yoel and Nia was, nor will she ask him about
Meredith remembered that Josiah's grandmother had a bad stomach and immediately felt guilty."I'm sorry, I'm so useless, I can't even cook a proper meal.""What nonsense are you talking about, the food you cook is delicious." Josiah raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair. "If you want to do it, do it.""But what if you get an upset stomach after eating it?""It doesn't matter, even if I get an upset stomach, I'll recover." Josiah was full of tenderness. "Your food is so delicious, so what if I get diarrhea?"Meredith was really happy. "Then I'll do it.""Go."Meredith got up and walked into the kitchen.Seeing her back disappear, Josiah's eyes suddenly turned cold and fell on Jenny. "You seem to have a problem with my wife."Jenny was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she quickly explained, "You have misunderstood, Sir. I was worried about your body and worried that you would get an upset stomach like Grandma, so I..."Jenny bit her lip before continuing, "
It looked so similar. Josiah coughed dryly, and asked in astonishment, "Edith, who are you painting?"Meredith turned her head to look at him, then shook her head. "I don't know who it is, but I always feel that this scene is very familiar.""Maybe it's a picture you've seen in an album." Josiah took the paintbrush off her hand. "Okay, it's getting late, it's time for us to go to bed."Meredith did not think much and went to sleep with him.When Meredith woke up the next day, the painting on the easel was gone.She ran downstairs with her bare feet and asked, "Lily, what happened to my painting?"Lily was tidying up the house, and when she heard Meredith's shout, she immediately came up to her. "Speak slowly, Ma'am, what kind of painting?""It's the one I painted yesterday, and it was in my room.""Did you paint yesterday? I don't know." Lily shook her head. "Ma'am, your room hasn't been cleaned today, and no one has ever entered.""Ma'am, could it be that Sir took the paint
"Oh, Ma'am, it's all in the past, you don't have to take it too seriously.""Jenny, can you take me to see her?""Ma'am, you want to see her?" Jenny shook her head. "That won't work, Sir will be angry." "Why?""Because you're the one who pushed her, Ma'am. Sir was so angry. If he knew that you went to the hospital to see her, he would definitely mistakenly think that you are having bad intentions.""What bad intentions? I won't hurt her again.""But Sir is worried that you will."After Jenny finished speaking, she raised her hand and slapped her mouth. "Ah, Ma'am, why are you coaxing me to tell you about this? If Sir finds out that I told you this, he will definitely kill me."She spoke more and more anxiously, grabbing Meredith's hand. "Ma'am, please don't tell Sir that I told you about Miss Yena, please."She did not want to end up like Maeve.Seeing that she was so scared, Meredith comforted her, "Don't worry, I won't tell him." "Really?""Yeah." Meredith nodded and
It did not take long for Jenny to quietly walk out of the cinema again. Jenny looked at Meredith's disappearing back, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of her lips.It was Meredith who secretly ran to see Yena, but it was none of her business.Meredith indeed went to Shelby Group Hospital.With Josiah's financial position, he would definitely arrange for Yena to be in the VIP ward. She went straight to the VIP ward and found Yena's name on the ward number.Coincidentally, at this time, the door of the ward opened.The nurse was taken aback when she saw Meredith, and instinctively asked, "Ma'am, why are you here?"Meredith smiled at her. "I'm here to see Yena.""Ah…is that so..." The nurse could not believe it.She heard that Miss Meredith returned to the Shelby family, which meant that she had remarried Josiah Shelby. How could she come to see a mistress?Could it be some kind of conspiracy?Seemingly seeing her worry, Meredith said, "Don't worry, isn't she Josiah's f
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
