After ending the call, Meredith took a deep breath to calm herself.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Meredith traced her fingers gently across the scar on her face and
murmured softly, “Qira, please look over me as I make my escape tonight. As soon as I settle down in
Yesenia City, I’ll continue to look for your siblings.”
If it was not for Qira back then, she would have been burnt to death in that fire.
And she had promised Qira to find her long-lost siblings but because of the series of tragedies that had
fallen on her, she was not able to keep her promise.
After she finished her second performance, it was already half-past eleven at night.
Reaching out for her phone, Meredith saw the message sent by Zade. He was already waiting for her
in the basement. :
From the corner of her eyes, Meredith took a glimpse at the two bodyguards that were standing not far
from her. According to the plan, Meredith changed into a new set of clean clothes in the staff lounge,
removed her face mask, and disguised herself as another person. “Merelyn, take care.” Zya was
wearing Meredith’s performance outfit and her face mask At a quick glance, Zya looked similar to
Meredith.
“I will, thank you Zya.”
“What is there to thank me for? I just want my brother to be happy.” Touched, Meredith promised her,
“Don’t worry, I promise to make him happy.” As long as she was able to free herself from Josiah, she
would be able to spend the rest of her days happily with Zade. Zade was already waiting for her in the
basement. As soon as she got into Zade’s car, Meredith asked, “Have Nia and my mom got into the
ambulance?”
“Yes, and they are making their way to Xenia City and we’ll meet them there.” Meredith sighed in relief,
at the same time, she was looking forward to her new life. This time around, she was determined to not
let Josiah find her again.
There was a route at Xenia City that led them directly to Yesenia City. After pulling over at the side of
the road, Meredith scanned her surroundings and did not see the ambulance anywhere. “Didn’t you say
that they left before us?” Meredith was starting to feel worried. “Let me make a call to the nurse.” Just
when Zade was about to make a call, a ray of full-beam headlights was seen from afar. Zade and
Meredith covered their eyes from the blinding light as they looked toward the source.
Vaguely, they noticed a black sedan but they could not see who was in the car. Shortly after, Meredith
finally noticed the number of the car plate.
Meredith felt shivers running down her spine as her face turned pale. “It’s him…” Meredith stammered.
Zade did not know about Yena’s birthday and so it was understandable that he was not familiar with the
number on the car plate. He asked instead, “Who is that?”
He would also not expect someone who was injured badly last night to show up here all of a sudden.
Meredith suddenly turned around to face him and said, “Zade, drive away as soon as I get out of the
car. Do you hear me?”
