Kimberly looked at Charlie in surprise. He merely placed his phone down, pulled the plate back to him, and started eating once more.Although he did not touch Meredith just now, from her flushed face, he could see that she was most likely having a fever.After all, she stayed outside the entire night before.…Meredith had already taken medicine, yet she did not feel better one bit. She even felt her head getting heavier and she was getting groggier.She shook her head, trying to make herself stay conscious. However, it was useless. Her vision was starting to get blurry. She had to stop the car by the side of the road. She planned to get out of the car to get some fresh air. She never thought that the moment she got out of her car, two men rushed over and held her arms, dragging her to the back of her car.Meredith was frightened. She instinctively struggled. "Who are you all? Why did you arrest me?"The two men did not answer her questions. One of them pinned her down in th
Yena directly stepped on the back of her hand."Meredith, do you still remember this place?" Yena's cold voice rang out from above her.Her fingers hurt so much that she shuddered. She bore through the pain and looked up at Yena. She asked, "Of course, I remember, but what does this place have to do with you?""Of course, it does. My sister died because of you, right? Back then, Ysabelle didn't manage to kill you, I will complete this plan today, avenging my sister.""Yena, stop pretending." Meredith looked up. She was sweating from the corner of her forehead. She looked at Yena and said, "You have never once remembered Qira. You don't even care about her or miss her. You say you want to avenge her. It's just an excuse to attack me."Meredith seemed to have guessed her intention. A hint of sheepishness flashed across Yena's eyes.Meredith continued, "Yena, do you know why I didn't agree to your request, asking Josiah to let you go? Because I think you're not worth it. You don't d
"You're not going to call, right? Okay! I'll call on your behalf!" Yena took the phone and quickly dialed Josiah.Meredith reached out to snatch the phone from her, but she kicked her back to the ground.The call soon connected. Josiah's voice rang out. "Hello."Yena sneered, "Josiah Shelby. Long time no see. I remember that you never take strangers' calls. Since when did you have a chance? Could it be after Meredith returned to the country…?"Josiah, on the other end of the line, was stunned for a while before asking, "You're…Yena?""I never thought that you would remember my voice." Yena chuckled coquettishly, "I always said that you have me in your heart. If it weren't for that b*tch, Meredith, you would have long married me already, right?""You're wrong. With or without Meredith in this world, I will never marry you, Yena," Josiah said coldly."Is that so? Mister Josiah, your words hurt." Yena hinted at the two men with her eyes and one of them immediately slapped Meredith.
"As long as you let Meredith go, I'll listen to you." Josiah could no longer care about anything else.Yena was right. She was an outlaw. What else did she have to worry about?All it took was an impulsive move and Meredith would fall off the cliff.As long as Meredith was alive, he would even sacrifice his life. What more marriage?Although Yena was tempted, her senses told her that there was no free lunch in this world. Josiah was just buying time. He was definitely not going to marry her.She shook her head and tutted. "How touching! Too bad it's too late!""Yena!" Josiah was going mad.Although Meredith could not see the screen, she could hear Josiah clearly. She yelled at the phone, "Josiah, don't listen to her! Don't believe her and come over here. I'm fine. She won't dare to do anything to me!""Is that so? Are you sure I won't dare to do anything to you?" Yena hinted at the men with her eyes once more.The man slapped Meredith to the ground once more.Josiah was so an
When Meredith heard what she said, she angrily pounced at Yena and slapped her. "Yena, you can insult me however you like, but you cannot insult Charlie!"Meredith was initially so uncomfortable and weak that no matter how Yena hit her or humiliated her, she could take it, but she could not take Charlie being mocked.Which was why she hit Yena, not knowing where she found the strength in her.Yena did not expect that Meredith could still fight back. She was stunned for a while before saying to the two men, "What are you standing there for? Throw her off the cliff!""How dare you." Charlie glared at Yena coldly. "If you dare push her off the cliff, I'll make sure you'll die with her!""Charlie, don't be like that." Meredith shook her head and anxiously persuaded, "This woman has gone mad, ruining your future for her is not worth it."Meredith could see that Yena clearly wanted her dead. She was worried that after Yena pushed her off the cliff, Charlie would push Yena off the cliff
Meredith could not avoid it in time. She looked at Yena coming at her. However, right before Yena could pounce at her, Yena's body fell over off the cliff.A figure swiftly flashed across her sight. She vaguely noticed that Charlie fell over together with Yena.Meredith was scared to death. She instinctively went forward to grab Charlie's body, yet she could only grab the corner of his shirt.Seeing him and the wheelchair falling off the cliff, Meredith screamed, "Charlie! Charlie—""Mister Charlie!" Lucas was bewildered. He also rushed over to the side of the cliff to have a look.A moment ago, Charlie acted too quickly. Before he could react, he saw his wheelchair fiercely rushing toward Yena, knocking her over. Which was why he and the wheelchair fell over the cliff together with Yena.It was the raging seas below the cliff. At that instant, Charlie's body vanished.Meredith was so frightened she lost it all. She cried and tried to climb down the cliff."Edith, what are you
Meredith did not know how long she had passed out. She was woken up by Mary dragging her down from the bed falling to the ground.When she came around, she saw Mary sobbing. A bad feeling instantly rose from her heart.She looked at Mary for a long time. She was so afraid that she could barely find her voice to speak. After a long while, she said, "Where's Charlie? How is he?"Mary suddenly stopped crying. She pounced at Meredith, grabbed her by her clothes, and shook her. "He fell from such a high place and fell into the sea. What do you think would happen to him? What do you think the outcome would be? Do you think he could climb out of the water?"Even if his legs were good, even if he did not injure himself when he fell, the waves are so huge, he won't be able to climb up!" Mary lost it and shrieked, "Meredith, are you happy right now? You must be satisfied!"Meredith completely stiffened. She muttered, "Mrs. Larson, what are you saying? Charlie…"She could not finish her sen
"Edith, don't be like this." Josiah hugged her in his arms and comforted her, "I know you're upset. Just cry if you're upset."Meredith finally broke down and sobbed, "Why…why would this happen? Why…?"Why would God treat Charlie that way?"If Charlie knew how sad you are, he would surely be very sad too." Josiah comforted her helplessly, "Edith, Charlie saved you so you could live well…""But I don't want him to die for me! I don't want that!"Charlie's accident happened because of her. At that moment, he fell off the cliff because of her again.Mary was right. She was always dragging him down and hurting him…"Edith…"Josiah was just about to continue comforting her when Meredith suddenly grabbed him by his clothes and yelled, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If you did not give Yena all those false illusions, why would she hurt Charlie repeatedly!"Although she was the one Yena wanted to hurt, it was always Charlie that protected her from harm.Josiah did not get
