Chapter 380Chapter 380
The tips of her fingers were slightly cold as they moved up and down his chest. Inhaling sharply, a fire
lit up in Josiah’s chest as he was provoked. Sighing softly, he said, “Yeah, I am that careless. I didn’t
learn my lesson when I was injured the first time and that was why I was hurt the second time.

“Mrs. Shelby, are we done now?” His voice turned hoarse and low. But Meredith’s thoughts still lingered
around how Josiah ended up with the scars. She then said solemnly, “Promise me that you’ll be careful
next time. I don’t want you to get hurt again.
“Mm, I promise.” He then pulled her hand away that was on his chest, put it to his lips, and kissed
them. “I promise that I won’t be that stupid next time…” He would not hurt her anymore. He would not
let her hate and despise him to the point that she wanted to stab him.
Again and again. “That’s my man,” Meredith smiled. Josiah pressed his lips against hers. “Mm, let’s
start then.” Even though Meredith was not sleepy, she did not feel like doing it.
They had been going at it every night and Meredith was a little tired. “Why?” Meredith was confused.
“Joe, don’t you get tired from doing it every night?” “Because you don’t feel sleepy,” Josiah said as he
tried to get her into the mood, “you’ll get sleepy once you feel tired.” In the end, Meredith gave in to his
provocation easily.
Even though they were going at it every night, she was happy. And she enjoyed doing it with him.
Indeed, the plan worked. After an hour, Josiah looked at Meredith who was in his arms and could not
keep her eyes open. He leaned into her ear and teased, “Edith, didn’t you say that you weren’t sleepy?
I thought you wanted to talk?” Meredith pushed away his face and grumbled, “Nah. I want to sleep
now.”
“But I’m wide awake now.”
“Joe, stop it…”
Josiah could not help but burst into laughter. She was the one who woke him up earlier, and now their
roles had changed. But he could not bring himself to annoy her. He simply kissed her forehead andwhispered,” Goodnight. Tomorrow is a brand new day.” He hoped that she would never get back her
memories.
Forever
Meredith slept in the next day. When she woke up, she felt slightly uncomfortable in the unfamiliar
surroundings. But at the smell of the sea, Meredith realized that she was having a vacation at the
resort. She turned to look at Josiah to find that he was not in bed. Josiah had always woken up earlier
than her.
“Joe…” She called out to him but did not get any response from him. She reached for her phone and
called him. Her call was answered very quickly. On the other end of the call was a gentle voice asking,
“You’re awake?” “Mm, where are you?” “I’m making breakfast downstairs. Come down when you’re
ready.” “You’re preparing breakfast?” Meredith found it a bit hard to believe.
“It’s nothing big. I’m sure I’m not as good as you.” Josiah sounded a bit busy. “Alright, I’ll see you in a
bit. The toasts are going to get burnt.” Meredith could not help but slip out a chuckle.
After ending the call, Meredith did not head downstairs right away. She got off the bed and pulled open
the curtains.
The vast and open sea underneath the clear blue skies welcomed her. It was a breathtaking scene.
Closing her eyes, Meredith tried to feel the ocean breeze and warm sunlight on her face. Almost
immediately, she felt at ease and at peace. After enjoying her time on the terrace, Meredith took a
shower before heading downstairs.novelbin
