Chapter 1291Chapter 1291 "I woke up and found the missus gone. I was extremely worried. How would I be in the mood to
eat?"
Meredith smiled. "How about I treat you to a meal?"
"Might I ask if you have money on you?"
Meredith touched her pockets. Her bag and phone were taken away, let alone money.
At that moment, she had nothing on her.
She shook her head. "No, I have no money. Why don't you buy me a meal instead?"
"Okay, my treat." Josiah finally placed her back in her seat and started the car once more.
Mrs. Shelby waited for a long time. She received no news from the city hall.
She called over and found out that Josiah and Ivy did not even go to the city hall. She was instantly so furious
her expression changed.
"Does Josiah think that I don't dare to do anything to Meredith?" She gritted her teeth furiously.
Then, her phone rang. When she heard that Josiah rescued Meredith, she was so furious that she
smashed the cup in her hands.
Suzy immediately bent down to pick up the broken shards.
"Where is that useless Ivy?" Mrs. Shelby yelled at Suzy.
"Ma’am, I'll call Miss Landers right now." Suzy immediately put down whatever she was doing, ran to
the phone, and dialed Ivy.However, the call stated that Ivy's phone was switched off. Suzy asked worriedly, "Ma'am, do you think
Miss Landers told everything to Sir and secretly ran away?"
"She won't dare to do it!" Mrs. Shelby said without giving it any thought, "Unless she doesn't want to
see her little b*stard anymore."
Mrs. Shelby was confident in her control over Ivy.
"But Miss Landers is uncontactable right now."
"I'm guessing she is most likely hiding due to guilty conscience," Mrs. Shelby said nonchalantly, "don't
worry, she will come back obediently."
After being rescued, Meredith did not return to Josiah's mansion to settle the score with Mrs. Shelby,
since she had already realized that she was hard to communicate with.
After knowing that she did not have long to live, Meredith had even more reasons not to fight with her.
After having breakfast outside, Meredith was brought to the room in Josiah’s office to rest. Since she
almost did not sleep the entire night before, she slept until the afternoon. When she woke up, the sun
was already setting.
"You're up?" Josiah's voice came from nearby.
Meredith did not know when Josiah sat by her bed.
"Why are you here? Don't you need to work?" She asked.
"I was done working, so I came to see you," Josiah said, " you must be hungry. Should we head out to eat?"He could not bear to wake her up in the afternoon, so she did not even have lunch. It was also because he
was worried that she would be hungry, which was why Josiah popped in to see her from time to time.
Meredith looked at the sunset outside the window. "We don't need to go out and eat, right? We can order in."
"I have already made arrangements with Liam. Do you want to come along?"
"Sure." This time, Meredith agreed to it.
"Are you that eager?"
"Didn't you say that Liam saved me? I have to thank him in person, right?"
"Okay. We’ll leave soon."
Meredith nodded before grabbing his arm. She asked, " By the way, how is Ivy? She did not register her
marriage. Mrs. Shelby surely won't let her go, right?"
"Don’t worry. She is being protected by Liam's men.” Protected by Liam's men...
