A week later, Josiah finally woke up.Seeing the concerned faces of Mister Wesley and Mister Yoseph, the first thing he said was, "Where's Edith? Why isn't she here?"Mister Wesley and Mister Yoseph looked at each other and did not know what to say.They thought, 'Does Mister Josiah know how dangerous his injuries are, how long he has been in a coma, and who stabbed him? The first sentence after waking up was to ask where the culprit was?'"Mister Josiah, do you still remember what happened to you?" Mister Wesley asked cautiously.Josiah closed his eyes and said calmly, "Yes, I remember.""Then...um...why did you ask where Mrs. Shelby is?""What do you mean? Did something happen to her?" Josiah's face changed slightly, ready to get up.Mister Wesley was so frightened that he hurriedly pressed him back and said, "Mister Josiah, don't move around. The doctor said you can't get up yet.""Yes, Mister Josiah, don't worry about Mrs. Shelby, she is doing fine now."Josiah lay back q
"Yes, really. Look, he has kicked both me and Mister Wesley out of the ward." Mister Yoseph said unceremoniously, "Miss Allison, please come back again next time.""Mister Yoseph, I'm already here. Can't you let me see him just for a short while?" Quinley said, using a sad tone.It was said that men were the easiest to win over when they were the saddest and weakest.Josiah loved Meredith so much, but he was almost stabbed to death by her. At this time, he must be very sad, and it was the time when he needed someone to comfort him.However, Mister Yoseph did not give her a chance, and said rudely, "Miss Allison, to tell you the truth, there are no less than 100 people who came to see Mister Josiah today, and everyone said that they wanted to go in and see him for a short while. If I agree to all of them, Mister Josiah will not get to rest. So, I'm really sorry."Having said that, what else could Quinley say?"Well then, I'll come to see Mister Josiah another day."When Quinley w
"Didn't she want me to die? Let her think I'm dead.""But you are obviously still alive. What will happen when Mrs. Shelby finds out?" Mister Yoseph said helplessly, "You can't just die just to make Mrs. Shelby feel better."Josiah stopped talking.This was obviously impossible.If he died, what would she do? What about Nia?Mister Yoseph pondered for a moment, then asked, "Mister Josiah, why don't you just tell Mrs. Shelby that Nia is still alive? Maybe this is more useful to her than the news of your death."Speaking of Nia, Josiah's eyes gradually deepened.Nia…That was right, Nia was the last straw that broke Meredith.Nia was her life, a heart she could not give up. It was the source of motivation to kill him, even if she destroyed herself.If Nia was alive and kicking, of course, he would tell her. He would even bring Nia to her, so that Nia could help her rekindle hope in life.However, the problem was...Nia was not so lucky.Josiah took a light breath and said in a
"Mister Yoseph, I have recovered my memory." Meredith interrupted him and sneered. "How Josiah treated me in the past, I have personally experienced all of it. It's not some fake memory that someone had made up.""I know that it was Mister Josiah's fault for listening to the lies of that woman, Ysabelle. Mister Josiah already knows that he was wrong, so he has been trying to make up for you all this time.""Go back and tell Josiah that unless he dies, nothing can make up for the crimes he committed to me and Nia.""Miss Meredith, Nia...""Also, go back and tell him that he is not qualified to mention Nia! Not ever!" Meredith interrupted him again. "Finally, tell him that as long as I still breathe, I will never forgive him. I won't let him go!"Throwing down this sentence, she turned around and walked inside.Mister Yoseph guessed that she would not forgive so easily, but he did not expect her to have such a strong temper.It seems that Mister Josiah was right. Nia was the last
"I..." Josiah hesitated and did not know how to answer.He himself had not figured out what to do.Old Madam Shelby said, "Forget it, you don't have to think about what to do. When you leave the hospital, you can quickly get her out of jail. I will take her back to Delmas Town with me, and by the way, I will find a good family for her to marry.""..." Josiah was speechless. "Grandma, are you serious?""What's so funny about this?" Old Madam Shelby asked back."But...Meredith is my wife, who would marry her?""Strange, where did you get your confidence?" Old Madam Shelby pointed at him. "Do you look down on Meredith herself, or do you look down on me, an old lady?"Okay, Meredith has lost her family background and her reputation is ruined. However, as long as I am her backer, those boys would be fighting to marry her, don't you think?"What Old Madam Shelby said made sense.It was because she was right that Josiah felt anxious and uncomfortable in his heart. He joked, "Grandma,
"Even Doctor Joshua can't guarantee this, so I didn't tell Meredith.""Are you afraid that Meredith won't be able to accept it?""Yes, I don't want her to be mentally hit a second time."Old Madam Shelby's eyes turned red again, and she nodded sadly. "Don't talk about her, even I...""Ma'am, please don't be sad." Penny hurriedly squatted down to comfort her. "Nia has been a good child and will definitely get better."Old Madam Shelby cried for a while, then raised her head and stared at Josiah again. "Then have you continued to find a good doctor for Nia? Also, is there anyone there to take care of Nia? Do you need me to send a few people over there?"Josiah shook his head. "Grandma, Doctor Joshua is already an expert in this area. If even he can't save Nia, then...""Bah! Don't jinx it!" Old Madam Shelby interrupted him.Josiah shut up, and after a while, he continued, "As for the manpower, don't worry, Grandma, I have already arranged it.""Are you sure it's arranged? It can
He originally thought that Meredith would not see him, but he did not expect her to appear so quickly.After being imprisoned for nearly a month, she who was originally thin, became thinner and more haggard. With the loose and ugly prison uniform, she looked unattractive.Seeing her for the first time in a while, Josiah could not help shouting at the guards next to him, "Didn't you tell her to take good care of her? How did she become like this?"The guards bowed their heads.Meredith was stimulated by the words 'take good care of her'. She stared at him with more hatred.Her mother died under his 'good care'.Maeve also died under his 'care'.This vicious man was now going to take 'good care' of her?Seeing him appear in front of her intact, she looked at herself. She looked extremely miserable, like a stray dog. She hated it so much that she wanted to rush up and stab him again."Edith..." Josiah called her softly.Meredith stared at him with ice-cold eyes and smiled at him
Naturally, Meredith could not bother to listen to him.She threatened coldly, "If you are not afraid of death, take me back."Although she said so, Meredith did not want to go back with him at all.After all, she did not have to guess what bad intentions this man had. It was nothing more than tricking her back into captivity, imprisoning her as before, torturing her, and making her life miserable.As long as she enters his territory, she will never have freedom again."I'm not afraid." Josiah looked at her deeply. "Edith, if you really hate me so much, then find a chance to stab me again."After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to her. "Come here, let's go home together."However, Meredith shrank back and shook her head. "Dream on. I won't go back with you."The more talkative he was, the more danger she felt.Rather than being taken back by him to take revenge for the abuse, she would rather sit in prison here."Didn't you agree to go back with me?" Josiah smi
