Chapter 193Chapter 193
Josiah did not kick her out of the room, but instead, he closed his eyes. Not because her massage was
able to help him sleep, but because he wanted to see if he would not be distracted as she said.
Because he did realize that he seemed to be especially interested in her damaged and tainted body.
For some reason, he would want her every time he saw her body.
Was he sick?
Could it be that he had the same illness as Julian Jefferson – having a preference for the damaged?
Closing his eyes, he tried to get rid of all the doubts and forced himself to stop. thinking.
Meredith’s hands were starting to ache but Josiah did not seem to be sleepy at all. She could not help
but doubt her own massage skills.
But when she massaged her mother, her mother would always fall asleep within fifteen minutes.
novelbin“Get out, Meredith Leighton!” Josiah finally exploded. Meredith’s hands stopped moving. Looking at
him, she asked, “You’re not feeling sleepy at all?” “It’s not working because you’re bad at this. Now get
out!” Even though she was focused solely on massaging him, she was after all sitting on top of him and
just a slight movement from her was enough to send blood rushing to his brain. How could he possibly
feel sleepy in this state? Meredith knew that her plan would not work tonight hence she got down from
his back and said to him, “Have a good rest then, Sir.”
“Go!” Josiah grabbed the box of tissue by the bedside table and threw it at her.
Meredith was startled. She could not understand why his temper suddenly sparked. She picked up the
tissue box and put it back on the table before walking out of theroom.
The next morning, Meredith woke up early to make breakfast.
After preparing breakfast, it was already seven in the morning and it was the time that Josiah would
usually have his breakfast. And he would usually already be in the dining hall at this time. “Lily, is Sir
still sleeping?” She asked Lily.
“I’m not sure,” Lily too was surprised. “Why is Sir not here yet?”
“Perhaps he’s still sleeping?”
“But Sir usually never sleeps in,” Putting down the cloth in her hand, Lily went on, “I’ll go check on him.”
Meredith suddenly had an idea. “Lily, let me go instead.”
“Sure, go ahead.”
Walking out of the kitchen, Meredith noticed the vase filled with freshly picked roses that she picked
from the backyard earlier. The roses looked fresh and pretty with morning dews on their petals.
Grabbing the vase from the table, Meredith then headed upstairs.
Josiah was still sleeping.
Placing down the vase of roses on the bedside table, Meredith leaned in closer to him.
He still looked dashing as usual. Even his sleeping position was attractive.
The warm rays of sunlight seeped through the curtains, shining on his face, accentuating further his
perfectly-sculptured face.Staring at him, Meredith could not help but be reminded of the first time she met him.
She was really young back then but at the first look, she was already attracted to him. Looking at her
mother, she said, “Mommy, he looks really handsome. Can I get married to him when I grow older?”
She remembered her mother being embarrassed by her sudden question.
Josiah’s grandmother, however, pulled into a wide grin, held her hand, and said, ” Of course, darling.
You look really pretty too. I’m sure you and Josiah would be a
