"She is Yena. Isn't Yena your enemy?" Quinley chuckled. "It's amusing thinking about it. The person that you have been constantly looking for has always been next to you. She was also constantly coveting for your husband."Yena?!It was Yena!Meredith shook her head instinctively. "I don't believe it. How could it be Yena? She…""What about her? She was Miss Leah's daughter? She had always grown up in Jehovah City?" Quinley said, "That's because she was sold to Miss Leah's family. She was never Miss Leah's biological daughter."Meredith never expected that Qira's younger sister was Yena. Qira was so kind and gentle, Yena was…Thinking back about how Yena defamed her in front of Josiah back then, she was instantly disappointed."Meredith, I'm doing it for your own good," Quinley said."No. You didn't tell me only so that you could watch me fight with Yena. Best if we all got hurt and you could take advantage of it." Meredith immediately saw through her scheme. "It's only a pit
"Yes."Meredith was speechless."Miss Meredith, you're like me back then. You have not an ounce of ability to judge for yourself. Naturally, you'll be like me back then, blinded by your own ego, going off course.""I won't," Meredith said confidently.Josiah looked at her. "Then, what are you doing here? Aren't you here to interrogate me?""What use is there if not just a waste of energy?""So?" Josiah was curious. "What are you here for?""Nothing. I just want to ask you about Yena.""Yena?""Yes." Meredith looked at his face and said without any expression, "Seven years ago, you almost had me killed because of her. You even tried killing your child. Two years ago, you kicked me out of the hospital once more because of her. You even stood me up the day we were supposed to register our marriage. From there, I could see that your feelings for Yena were not that simple. How could you just let go of such a relationship?""What do you mean by that?" Josiah was truly confused.He
"I want you to know that even if I, Josiah Shelby, can't win my wife back, I won't just simply marry others, especially a b*tch like Yena! I want you to know that I only have you in my heart." Then, Josiah kissed Meredith fiercely.The familiar scent. The usual domineering character. Meredith was long used to his habits, but she was still subdued by him."Woo, woo…" She suddenly thought about Charlie at the hospital. Her hands that stopped fighting a moment ago started struggling again.The more she struggled, the more addicted Josiah became. He had not touched those lips for two years. It kept sucking him in like some magical force.On top of that, Meredith's familiar scent drove him wild. He could not let her go. If it were not for Meredith's sudden slap on his face, he would have continued being hooked on her.After a loud slap, the entire study room quieted down. Josiah looked at Meredith with an ashen face. He did not know what to do with her. Meredith, on the other han
"You forced your way here. Can I not agree to it?" Josiah smiled helplessly. "If our daughter sees this. She would think I was bullying her Mommy."Listening to his words two years ago, Meredith might still find some warmth in them. However, that day, she only felt uncomfortable listening to him.After all, she was already Charlie's wife. She was just thinking about Charlie when her phone rang.She just picked up when the caretaker said anxiously, "Mrs. Larson, it's bad. Mister Larson has gone mad. Come quickly.""What do you mean? What happened to Charlie?" Meredith anxiously asked. She quieted down and could vaguely hear Charlie yelling.She could barely ask any further questions before directly hanging up the call."What happened?" Josiah saw her running out. He grabbed her arm and asked her.Meredith turned around and looked at him with a complicated gaze. "I'm guessing Charlie has found out about his crippled legs. Are you happy now?"Then, she shrugged his hand off and co
"Charlie, your legs are not…""You don't have to lie to me! I heard it! I heard it all!" Charlie pushed her away with all his might. He said angrily, "All of you are lying to me, right? You just want me to be the butt of the joke!""No. Charlie, can you calm down first?""My legs are crippled. How could I calm down? How could I!?"The things on the table and bed had been thrown away by him. He could only hit himself to relieve himself of the anger. "Why did you all save me? Why don't you just let me die? I don't want to live a life as a disabled person. I would rather die! Do you hear me!?" Charlie was so agitated his eyes reddened.Meredith gritted her teeth and yelled at him, "Charlie, are you blaming me?"She pounced at him, grabbed his agitated trembling body, and said, "Charlie, you have become like this because of me. Even if you want to die, I should be the one who dies first. You don't want to live anymore, right? Okay, I'll die first. Once I die, no one will stop you any
Clearly, Charlie was tired from the tantrum he threw.Afraid that he would flare up once more, Meredith stayed by his side. It was until midnight when she finally saw Charlie fall asleep. She finally let out a sigh of relief.The next day, when Charlie woke up, he no longer threw a fit. He merely silently looked at the ceiling.Meredith could see that he was defeated by his crippled legs, but this situation was not any better than throwing a fit.After all, at least if he was throwing a fit, he could release his emotions.Meredith served him the breakfast she prepared. She said gently, "Charlie, you must be starving. Let's have breakfast."Charlie ignored her. He merely looked at the ceiling with a hollow gaze."Charlie, I haven't had my breakfast either," Meredith said with a smile, "I remember what you said before, that you'll have breakfast with me every day. Are you planning on reneging your promise so quickly?"Charlie's eyes finally moved a little, but they still did not
Mary said without any expression, "You don't have to explain it to me. After all, no one will be willing to marry a useless man.""Mrs. Larson, how could you say that of Charlie?" Meredith was in disbelief. "Being crippled doesn't mean he is useless. You should encourage him and console him that even if his legs are crippled, he could still live a good life.""Are you lecturing me?" Mary raised her eyebrows."I'm sorry. That's not what I mean. I only hope that Charlie can get better soon." Meredith was worried she had misspoken. She said to Mary, "Charlie hasn't had breakfast yet. Please try to persuade him to eat."Then, Meredith quickly left. She planned to return to the office to do some work while ignoring Charlie for a bit.Mary thought that Meredith was about to abandon her son. She was so furious her face turned blue. She stood outside the door for a while before entering.Seeing the disappointment on Charlie's face in bed, Mary knew that he was missing Meredith."Charlie
"Why are you looking at me with such a wary face?" Josiah was feeling uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart. He mocked, "Charlie is already in this state, what else could I do to him?""Who knows? After all, Mister Josiah, your ways had always been ruthless," Meredith said coldly.Josiah sneered, "Meredith, you're not that charming.""It's best if that's the case." Meredith did not plan to continue talking to him. She walked past him.Josiah saw the thermos in her hands. He uncontrollably held her hand and asked, "Did you make them yourself?"Meredith was forced to stop in her tracks. She turned back and asked him, "Is there a problem with that?"Josiah was speechless from her question. He immediately shook his head. "Nothing, I'm just asking."He did not know why he would ask such a useless question. Perhaps, at the thought of Meredith making breakfast for other men, he felt unhappy about it.He said, "I haven't had your breakfast for a long time."Meredith looked at him
