Chapter 66
The bodyguards acted as if they did not hear her. “I promise…that I’ll return to Luna Club right away after seeing my daughter. I will not cause any trouble, I promise. Please, I’m begging you.”
After a moment of silence, the bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat said, “Miss Meredith, we’re only doing what we’re told to. You may call Mister Josiah if there’s anything you need.” Make a call to Josiah?
To be honest, Meredith was already surprised that Josiah allowed Nia to return to the hospital. Or perhaps he could not be bothered to waste any time or effort dealing with a child that would die sooner or later.
No matter how Meredith tried to beg the bodyguards, she was sent back to Luna Club in the end.
At the sight of Meredith, Zya was perplexed. Meredith did not explain herself but said to her, “Zya, go home and check on your brother,
I’m worried about him.” ‘ “What happened to him? Did Mister Josiah beat him up?” Zya asked anxiously. “It’s worse than being beaten up.” Meredith smiled bitterly. In Meredith’s opinion, it might be better than Zade was beaten up rather than being forced to watch her ‘performance’. Zya left Luna Club right away and headed home.
Ysabelle had been shooting a movie overseas for the past few months and the shooting was scheduled to be wrapped up in December when she suddenly received news that Meredith and Josiah had reunited.
No matter how Josiah had supported her, Ysabelle did not gain any popularity until she was offered to star in an international project. However, she decided to give up on this opportunity when she received
the news.
In the lift, Ysabelle held a branded bag in one arm and was scrolling through her phone. Upon reaching Josiah’s ward, Ysabelle collected herself by taking a deep breath and adjusting her short skirt before knocking on the door. Josiah was sitting up and was staring out the window. His shirt was unbuttoned halfway, revealing the white bandage with several bloodstains.
He still looked dashing as ever even when he was injured. “Josiah, what happened to you?” Ysabelle rushed toward his bed and scanned him all over with a worried look on her face. “I heard that you were stabbed by Meredith. You should have been more careful.”
At the sight of Ysabelle, the look on Josiah’s face remained unchanged as he replied indifferently, “It was an accident.”
Ysabelle was already used to his indifference but she was still somewhat disappointed.
She was gone for three months but he could not even be bothered to take a good look at her “An accident? Is Meredith still mentally unstable?” Ysabelle grabbed his wrist and asked,” Also, I thought Meredith is dead? Why is she suddenly at Luna Club?”
Ysabelle had looked into this matter when she was abroad and found out that Meredith did not die when she jumped off the cliff.
But Ysabelle felt relieved that Meredith not.only had scarred that pretty face of hers, but she was also selling herself at a clubhouse.
Meredith who was once the prettiest lady in Jehovah City was now a mere hostess in some lowly bar. Ysabelle was confident that Josiah would not lay eyes on her anymore.
“Josiah, why aren’t you saying anything?” Seeing how Josiah was not saying anything, Ysabelle nudged his wrist lightly. Josiah removed his hand from her grip and replied, “I’m also wondering what happened exactly.” Ysabelle acted as if she was thinking hard before saying, “It seems to me that Meredith had set the fire intentionally to escape, and her plan had worked right? Seeing how she was off the grid for three years.”
Josiah did not say anything further. All he could think of was how Meredith was willing to serve and please him for that loverboy of hers. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
At first glance, one might think that he had won, but Josiah did not feel any sense of victory. He was even mad at the thought of her face which was full of tears. She had always said that she only loved him but why did she have other men in her heart? Josiah was annoyed that a woman like that was actually his wife.
