Chapter 320Chapter 320
Upon hearing Josiah asking her for help to care for Meredith, his grandinother
pondered seriously before agreeing to it. “I‘ll return home the day that you leave.” Josiah was a little
helpless. “Grandma, do you really hate me
that much?” “What do you think?”
“If that‘s the case, I‘ll make a move.” Josiah pulled Meredith over. “Edith, let‘s go back to have our
meal.”
novelbinUpon hearing that Meredith has not eaten, Josiah‘s grandmother immediately
softened her. tone and said, “Edith has not eaten? Go back quickly! Don‘t starve yourself.”
“Grandma, I‘ll come and see you the next time.”
“Okay, go.”
Coming out of the hospital, Josiah pulled Meredith along and asked, “Let’s go have
some food, What do you want to eat?”
Meredith thought for a while, She shook her head. “I don‘t know either.”
“Then, let‘s go have some steak.” He remembered that Meredith liked steaks.
“Great.” Meredith nodded.
Josiah brought her to a high–end restaurant. They both got out of a car when someone suddenly
appeared.“Meredith, I‘ll kill you!” The other person rushed at Meredith, waving the knife in their hands.
Meredith was bewildered. She did not react in time. It was Josiah who reacted
quickly, pulling her into his arms.
The knife missed Meredith but sliced through Josiah‘s arm. His white shirt was
instantly cut through, blood seeping out.
Margot was about to stab another time when Josiah grabbed her wrist. He squeezed
it tightly and the knife fell to the ground.
Meredith was scared half to death. She looked at Josiah pinning Margot onto the car
in bafflement.
“Joe…you…let her go.” Meredith was so shocked she stuttered.
Josiah did not let her go, but merely took his phone out.
Margot turned around and glared at Meredith. “Meredith, stop with the pretense. Do
you think that by killing our entire family, you will get what you want? Let me tell you, Josiah isn‘t
really…”
“Mrs. Leighton, if you don‘t want to die, you‘ll shut up!” Josiah interrupted her Margot
replied, “Of course, you‘re afraid of death, but you‘ll still force me to die, isn‘t it?
Josiah, don‘t think that by killing us all you can atone for your past mistakes. Do youthink that Nia will…”
Margot was struck out cold by Josiah before she could finish her sentence. She slumped slowly to the
ground.
Josiah did not even look at her. He immediately turned to look at Meredith. “Edith, are you alright? Are
you hurt?”
Meredith looked at Margot on the ground. She raised her hands to her ears and started screaming,
“Help! Help—” “Edith…” “Joe, who is she? Why did you kill her? Why?” Meredith yelled. Her
body was trembling in shock too.
Josiah immediately consoled her, “Don‘t worry. She is not dead. She has only passed out.”
“Also, who is Nia?” Meredith suddenly grabbed Josiah‘s collar. She looked at him and asked,” Joe, who
is Nia? Do I know this person? I seem to know this person…”
Meredith let her hands go and covered her ears once again. “I remember her. No, I don‘t remember
her. Who is she? Who is…”
“Edith, you have misheard. There is no Nia. You don‘t know Nia.” Josiah hugged her
in his arms. “Shh, calm down. Stop thinking.” “But, I…” “Stop it. Just stop thinking.”
Josiah lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
