Josiah wanted to meet up? Maeve was torn internally as she made her way to Josiah's car nearby. From afar, she could see the regal-looking man in the driver's seat. Through the window, it added some mystery and handsomeness too.Maeve involuntarily gasped. No wonder Quinley would spend six million dollars to get rid of Meredith.However, what was Josiah asking her out late at night for? Could it be because of the quarrel she had with Meredith? He looked after Meredith so protectively, not willing to let her be disturbed at all, yet a moment ago, she…Thinking about what had happened to her recently, Maeve retracted her steps. She decided to run off when she could."Miss Xander!" An attractive male voice rang out from behind suddenly.The voice was as attractive as the person himself. Maeve turned around. Josiah had already rolled the window down, showing his face clearly. He was smiling elegantly. However, his smile did not reach his eyes, yet it was indiscernible if he was
Josiah looked at her and smiled lightly. "Miss Xander, you look so good even just drinking water."Maeve was getting more and more elated by his words."Mister Josiah, do you like it?""Of course, who doesn't like a beautiful woman?""So, Mister Josiah, you treat Meredith so well, is it just like what the internet speculates? Because you are just pretending to put on the good husband act? For the reputation of the Shelby Group?""If not? What do you think I am after then? Meredith's rotten face? Or that lunatic broken body of hers?"Maeve was extremely stunned to hear these words coming from Josiah.In the past, when she saw Josiah looking at Meredith, she thought it was still real, so she refused to believe that it was all an act. Who would have thought that it was true! Was he there to ask her for help? Sure enough, Josiah continued, "Miss Xander, so I hope the next time you see Meredith, don't mention the past to her. I don't hope for her to regain her memories so quickly
Maeve's words got stuck in her throat. She was frightened by two strange men standing in front of her."You two…" If they were just any ordinary men, she would not have been so stunned. They were policemen in uniform.Their stern expressions were a little intimidating.However, she did not do anything wrong, so she came to her senses and said curtly, "You two must have gotten to the wrong place, right?"The moment the police saw her, they subconsciously looked away."Ma'am, please cover yourself," One of the police said.Maeve looked down at her pajamas. It barely covered any of her body parts. She took a coat and put it on before crossing her arms across her chest, leaning against the door. "What do you two want?""Are you Miss Maeve Xander?" The other policeman asked."Yes. Can I help you?" Maeve's tone turned soft. If they could call her by name, they were clearly here for her.What on earth did they want with her? Before she could guess it, they said, "Miss Xander, we ha
"Mister Josiah, I really did not steal your watch. Can you let me go?" Maeve was so frightened that she was about to cry. She paused for a while before saying, "I know you're trying to seek revenge, Mister Josiah. Which is why you came up with this whole thing. I'm sorry. I apologize to Mrs. Shelby too. I should not have embarrassed her at the party. I shouldn't have gone to look for her too. But, Mister Josiah, I was being hurt by someone too, it was Quinley…""Miss Xander. I saw the surveillance footage at the party. I won't look into the matter of you shoving Sharon Young anymore. I just want my watch back. Are you planning to hand it over to me or should I get the police to go in and search?"I…"It turns out he even went back to the party to look at the surveillance footage. Maeve did not know what to say at that moment.Josiah would so confidently bring the police to search her house, he must have been prepared.Maeve cried nervously, "Mister Josiah, I beg you to let me go.
The moment he entered the hotel room, Josiah's cold face slowly relaxed, turning into the gentle face he had when he left the mansion.The way he fluently changed his expressions was as if he had never left the mansion, nor had he sent a woman who offended him to prison.When he heard terrifying soft yells from the bedroom, he quickly entered.Meredith was flailing her arms in bed. She muttered, "Don't go! Don’t go!"Clearly, she was having a nightmare again. When she just lost her memories, she would always have nightmares, but because of his reassurance and company, her nightmares lessened.Why would she suddenly have a nightmare again that night? Was it because he was not by her side on the bed, hugging her to sleep?"No, no!" Meredith's soft mutters turned to terrifying groans. Tears fell from the corner of her eyes."Edith, Edith, I'm here." Josiah held her flailing hands with one hand while touching her face with the other. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you here alone.
Josiah lowered his head and kissed Meredith on the forehead. "It's late. Let's continue sleeping.""Hmm." Meredith nodded.She closed her eyes for a while before suddenly opening them wide and asked, "By the way, is my bracelet done? I need to look for Yuna."Then, she was about to get up.Josiah pulled her back into his arms, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Don't worry. It's done. You can get it tomorrow."In fact, when Yuna went to the jewelry shop, it was already closed. She had to do it the next day, but to coax Meredith to sleep, Josiah had to come up with this white lie.Sure enough, Meredith obediently went to bed.The next day, when Meredith woke up, the bracelet was lying in perfect condition on the nightstand next to her bed.She delightedly took the bracelet to have a look. It was the one that was snapped the night before.She took the bracelet downstairs and said happily, "Joe, my bracelet is fixed. It's the same as the original one!"Josiah was preparing b
When Quinley received the news that Maeve was arrested, she was so furious she was at a loss for words.Even if she was not lacking money, six million dollars was a huge amount. How did that b*tch screw things up?Thankfully, she still had not paid her the remaining five million dollars, if not her loss would have been larger."What did you say? Maeve wants to see me?" She placed her cup down and said to the girl called Sunny, sitting opposite her. "How dare she still look for me?""Yes, I'm guessing she wants you to help bail her out.""Who does she think she is?" Quinley sneered."Yes. Does she still think that she is the heiress of Xander?"Sunny was one of their friends. Naturally, she would only be friends with whoever was doing well. Since Maeve lost all her wealth and powers, Sunny looked down upon her.She laughed and added, "But she said that if you don’t see her, you'll regret it.""What does she mean by that?"Sunny shook her head. "I don't know either. I heard it
"Quinley, you have to save me." Maeve softened her tone and started pleading with Quinley. "Quinley. You can't just leave me here and do nothing. It's because of you…that I fell for Josiah's trap. I…""Miss Xander!" Quinley interrupted her and quickly swept a glance at the staff nearby. She said, "What do you mean it was because of me? You were the one who had ill intentions toward Josiah. You even secretly followed him to the resort to make trouble."Maeve was stunned. Then, she nodded. "Yes, yes. It's all my fault. I was greedy and evil. I now know I was wrong. Can you help me, please?""I can't help you," Quinley said impatiently, "I already said that this is Josiah's case. He has already put out the word. Whoever dared to help you meant that they were going up against him. Miss Xander, take care. I'm leaving."Then, Quinley was about to leave. When Maeve realized that pleading would not work, she went the tough way."Miss Allison, since you're not willing to help me, I can onl
