novelbinJosiah nodded, “Yeah, you’re just something else, aren’t you? Treating him like some sort of garbage,
disposing of him when you feel like it.” “Josiah …” She grabbed his arms with her trembling hands and
cried, “Nia is also your child, so why aren’t you…” “Shut up!” Josiah slapped her again. “I will kill you if
you dare to bring up her name again!” Meredith felt her ears ringing. She could not seem to say
anything else. Josiah stood up and glanced coldly at her. “Meredith Leighton, don’t even think that I’ll
let you go just because you got rid of the child. You can dream on!” He reached for his phone and
called a number. “Send someone over. Bring Meredith back home and lock her up.” Meredith struggled
and got herself up from the floor. Wrapping her arms around his legs, she cried, “Josiah Shelby, you’re
breaking your promise!” Josiah’s gaze was clouded even more. Lifting her head to look at him,
Meredith went on, “You promised to let me go once I get rid of the child, and now that the baby is gone,
how could you not keep your word?”
Josiah did not say anything.
Josiah knew that it was not right to hit a woman but right now, he desperately wanted to beat up
Meredith.
He was worried that he would kill Meredith if he stayed any longer. Inhaling sharply, Josiah tried to
regain his composure before saying, “I’ve changed my mind. I will only let you go when you give me
back my son.”
He then walked away without looking back.
Meredith wanted to run after him but because her head was aching too badly, she dropped onto the
floor before she could even grab his sleeves.
“Don’t go, Josiah…” She could not be locked up again.Nia needed her.
How did things turn out this way?
Why was everything she did somehow end up wrong?
Meredith got herself off the floor. She wanted to visit Nia but Josiah’s men had already shown up. They
had her hands tied up and she was thrown into the car.
Josiah did what he said – locking her up again.
At the sight of Meredith who was injured all over, Lily was shocked. “Miss Meredith, what
happened to you?” Meredith cried her heart out. “Lily, I’ve lost my baby.” “Huh?” Lily was stunned.
“What happened?” Meredith did not reply and only kept repeating the same words, “What should I do?
What happened to Nia?”
Lily did not know what to do as well.
“Miss Meredith, let me treat the wound on your forehead.” Lily took out a first-aid box and started
cleaning up the wound on Meredith’s forehead. “Look at you with another new wound. Why are you
always so clumsy?” All Meredith thought was how useless she was.
How could she be so naive to take the pills that Zade had given her?
But what was the use of crying over spilled milk? She had already lost her baby.
Meredith lay on the bed. Perhaps she was too worn out from everything.
By the time Josiah returned home, Meredith was still sleeping on the bed.At the sight of Meredith, Josiah was immediately reminded of how she had killed the baby. He strode
toward her and pushed her off the bed.
“Who allowed you to sleep in the guest room? Meredith was already numb with all the pain that she
felt.
