Did Liam buy all these for Meredith? Josiah could not help but think back about what Liam told him
before dinner, “If one day I were to marry her…” He instantly took all the desserts out of the fridge in
annoyance, turned around, and threw them in the bin. Lily was stunned. She instinctively said, “Sir, the
desserts were bought today! It’s such a waste to throw them away!” “Then feed them to the dogs!”
Josiah grumbled angrily and headed upstairs.
When he was upstairs, he saw Liam coming out of his bedroom. Josiah glanced at Liam coldly and
said, “Why are you still up so late at night?” “I can’t sleep, so I’m going to look for Edith and chat.” Liam
walked over and placed his arm on Josiah’s shoulder. He looked at Josiah with raised eyebrows.
“Why? Can’t I do that?” “Meredith is not free to chat with you.” Coincidentally, Meredith came out of
Yena’s room right at that moment. When she saw two of them, she was stunned for a while. Liam was
about to say something when Josiah said in a low voice, “You’re done massaging Yena so quickly?”
“I’m done,” Meredith said, “It doesn’t mean the longer you massage the better it is. It has to be done
just right.”
Liam said, “Edith…” “Since you’re done with massaging, go down and prepare me supper,” Josiah said
once again before Liam could say anything. Meredith nodded and headed downstairs. Liam was rather
speechless. He looked at Meredith’s back and said, “Edith, why are you so obedient? You don’t have to
listen to him!”
Meredith stopped in her tracks, turned around, and looked at Josiah. “I want to please Mister Josiah
more, so that he’ll release my mother from jail earlier.” Then, she turned around and went downstairs.
“Look at you, Josiah. Look at you!” “What am I looking at?”
“Look at what a failure you are!” Liam shook his head unbearably. “Other than using her mother to
threaten her, you have no other ways to deal with her anymore. I’m afraid that one day if her mother
dies in the prison, you can no longer control her. Tsk, tsk. It’s a pity!” Josiah was a little taken aback by
Liam’s words. Then, he looked at him coldly, “You take pity on yourself first, you’re single!”
Josiah pushed Liam’s hand away from his shoulders and headed downstairs.
Liam pursed his lips without any regard and said, “You’re saying as if you’re not single.”
Josiah’s lips twitched. He suppressed the urge to beat Liam up.
The next morning, while Meredith was still making breakfast, she heard Lily greeting Liam,” Mister
Liam, aren’t you staying for breakfast?”
“No. I have an urgent matter to attend to.”
When Meredith heard what he said, she picked up the sandwich and milk that she had just prepared
and headed out. She stuffed them into Liam’s hands.
“Mister Liam, didn’t you say that not having breakfast is bad for your stomach? Take them and have
them on your journey in the car.”
Liam looked at the breakfast in his hands and looked at Meredith, stunned. “Aren’t you afraid that
Josiah would be angry at you again?”
“He gets angry every time he seems me anyway. It’s fine.”
“You’re right.” Liam nodded. “Thank you, then.”
After Liam left, Meredith returned to the kitchen once again to make breakfast. After Josiah got up, he
went to visit Yena like he always did. Then, he stayed with her by the side of her bed for a while more
before getting up and prepared to head downstairs.
The moment he turned around he heard a message tone ring from the phone next to him.
He could not help but head to the nightstand to have a look. It was Meredith’s phone. The screen
showed a notification of a wire transfer. The amount was almost one million dollars!
