Chapter 87
"You're so weak, yet you want to play with me? You overestimate your powers, "He coldly spat, turned around, and headed out of the bathroom.
Everyone in the room has left. Josiah was about to leave too.
He just opened the door of the room when Meredith's cries could be heard coming from the bathroom. "Joe, don't go. I'll explain....I'll explain..."
Josiah turned around and headed back to the bathroom.
Meredith was not conscious, she remained in the same position at the corner of the bathroom, only with the addition of two lines of tears on her face.
"Meredith, were you calling for me?" He bent down and pinched her chin." What right do you have to call my name? Hmm?"
He used a lot of strength, Meredith was hurt, she opened her eyes slowly.
In blurriness, she saw Josiah's face, but she could not see the expressions on his face or the disgust he had for her.
It was like he was the young man she knew back then.
"Joe! You're here!" Meredith supported herself against the corner of the wall and stood up. Then, her legs turned to jelly, and she fell into Josiah's arms. Joe, take me away, please? I'm cold..."
The moment her body fell toward him, Josiah instinctively caught her.
Her familiar scent flooded his senses. He never pushed her away but instead picked her up in his arms and headed toward the door of the room.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing Josiah carrying Meredith back, Lily was extremely stunned. She followed Josiah upstairs while asking, "Sir, what happened to Ma'am? Is she alright?"
Josiah stopped in his tracks, turned back, and glared at her. "There is no ma'am here. She's not my wife either."
Lily immediately hit her mouth. "I'm sorry, sir. I misspoke."
"Then." Lily continued, "Do you want me to look after Miss Meredith? I can..."
"No need!" A woman like that did not deserve care from anyone else. She was only worthy of being defiled by a thousand men, then thrown into the corner of the bathroom!
He did not understand what had happened to him a moment ago, taking Meredith back to the mansion.
The anger in him raged stronger. He initially wanted to put her on the bed, but he threw her on the floor.
With a thud, Meredith's head hit the floor. She let out a muffled grunt in pain and got sober too.
She groggily got up from the ground and scanned her surroundings. She asked, "Where am I?"
Josiah sneered and looked at her. "Meredith, this is the room where you had an affair with Yoel, have you forgotten it so quickly?"
"Affair?" Meredith was stunned. Then, she shook her head violently. "No! I did not have an affair, I did not! Joe, you have to believe me. I did not have an affair..."
Meredith got up and hugged her hands around his neck. "Joe, you have to believe me..."
Josiah shoved her to the ground in disgust. "Don't touch me with your dirty body!"
Meredith exclaimed in pain.
Josiah's anger was not relieved. He picked her up once again. "You didn't have an affair, is that so? Then where did that bastard of a child of yours come from? Don't forget, every time we did it, we wore protection!"
"Bastard of a child..." Meredith shook her head. "No. Nia is not a bastard. Nia is not... Nia is still waiting for me at the hospital."
She pushed him away and staggered out of the room. "Nia, don't be afraid. Mommy is coming to see you."
However, she could not open the door of the bedroom no matter how she tried.
