Chapter 372Chapter 372
He walked into the bedroom to see Meredith who was scrolling on the internet using a tablet.
He caught a glimpse of the keyword in the search bar and he realized that Meredith was trying to
gather information about her past.
“You‘re home, Joe,” Meredith pressed the tablet against her chest, looked at him and asked,” were you
drinking? You reek of alcohol.”
“Mm, just a little.”
Josiah sat down on the couch, lifted Meredith onto his lap, took the tablet from her hands, put it aside,
and started kissing her.
“Did you miss me?” He asked.
Meredith felt confused again.
His movements were so natural as if they were a happily married couple.
Meredith wondered if Josiah‘s love for her was real.
But at the thought of Yena who was laying in the hospital bed, Meredith shook away her thoughts.
“Joe, there‘s a strong perfume smell on you,” Meredith said, leaning into his arms.
novelbinJosiah kissed the top of her head and said, “I was seduced by a witch in the car earlier.
That‘s how I got the perfume smell on me.
I‘ll take a shower to get rid of it.” “Witch? Who is it?” Meredith asked.“Someone that I know.
She wanted to seduce me.”
“Oh.”
Josiah stared at her dazed face and said, “Aren‘t you angry that she‘s trying to steal your husband?”
“She wants to steal you from me? of course I‘ll be mad,” Meredith wrapped her arms around his
shoulders and went on, “Joe, you promised that you won‘t get close with other women, and I too
promised that I‘ll do the same.” “I did.
And that is why I threw her out of the car.” “Really? So you guys did not get intimate?” “Of course not,
but…”
Josiah did not finish his sentence which got Meredith curious.
“But what?”
He smiled and said, “But she had incited something in me and I need your help to put out the fire.”
With a dazed and confused look on her face, Meredith was clueless as to what he meant.
It was when Josiah placed her hand on ‘that part of his that Meredith finally realized what he meant.
Even though she was mentally unstable, Josiah had been making love to her and Meredith knew that
he would have his urges.
It was as if when she lost her memories, she had also forgotten the feelings of embarrassment.
She climbed onto his body and started to help him relieve his urges.Josiah thought that the Meredith right now was similar to the Meredith that he knew five years ago and
it was her assertiveness that made him attracted to her.
Josiah admitted that he was not some saint and he was trying hard to hold back his urges after being
seduced by Quinley.
He was glad that he had someone at home to help him put out the ‘fire‘ in him.
Josiah immediately got into the mood and flipped Meredith over on the couch so that he was above
her.
Meredith was wide awake after reading the articles online but after being ‘tormented by Josiah, she
was knocked out immediately.
Staring at Meredith who was all curled up in his arms, Josiah placed a gentle kiss on her forehead
before heading into the shower.
It was the weekend the next morning.
Meredith had just woken up and vaguely heard Josiah conversing on the phone at the terrace.
She turned around in bed and tried to make out what Josiah was discussing on the phone.
She soon realized that Josiah was making plans for a vacation.
Shortly after, Josiah ended the call and returned to the bedroom.
“You‘re up?” Josiah‘s expression softened as he walked toward her, leaned over and kissed her
forehead.
“Morning.”“Morning, Joe.” Meredith placed her hand on his face.
From where he was standing, Meredith thought that Josiah looked more gorgeous and alluring than
before.
“Joe, you look amazing.” Meredith could not help but praise him.
