Chapter 498
Meredith lost it and cried for a while. She got off the bed and rushed outside.
Quinley immediately pulled her back. “Meredith, where are you going?”
“I’m going to look for Josiah.” Meredith wiped away the tears on her face. She said with a trembling voice, “Even if
Nia is dead, I want to get her body back.” “If you go back now, Josiah will lock you up,” Quinley said, “Meredith,
haven’t you recovered your memories? Haven’t you forgotten how Josiah treated you in the past?” Sure enough,
Meredith was stunned. How did Josiah treat her back then? He treated her like dirt, stepping on her, humiliating her,
and torturing her as he wished. The moment she resisted, he would make it worse.
To control her movements, he forcefully imprisoned her in the mansion, completely ignoring the fact that she still
had a daughter lying in the hospital waiting to be taken care of. Incident after incident, matter after matter,

Meredith recalled all of them.
Quinley was right. If she were to return just like that, not only would she not be able to find Nia’s body, but she
would also lose her freedom.
Josiah had been worried that she would recover her memories all this while. Was that not just because he was
worried that once she regained her memories, she would not be under his control anymore and it would affect his
reputation? “Meredith, why don’t you stay with me first, then find a chance to escape from here and never return.”
To never return!
That way, the plan Quinley had been planning for so long was considered a success too.
Meredith shook her head in a daze. “No need. I know what I should do.”
Finding a chance to escape was not the purpose of her regaining her memories. “What do you plan to do?” Quinley
asked. Meredith looked at her and smiled without saying anything. A while later, she said, “Quinley, thank you for
helping me. I’m no longer an idiot for letting that jerk lie to me.” Meredith said that to tell Quinley that she would

leave Josiah because Meredith could see that Quinley had always hoped that she did so.
“I don’t know if what I’m doing is right or not, so don’t thank me.” Quinley held her hand.” Meredith, actually, I
always wanted to say sorry. When things happened to you four years ago,
I was abroad. When I returned to the country, I didn’t know where you were anymore.’
Meredith shook her head. “I don’t blame you.” She did not want to mention the past anymore. Furthermore,
Quinley had no obligation to help her.
It was already dark and raining outside.
Meredith walked alone on the streets under the breeze and rain. Her thin figure looked extremely lonely under the
rain.
The weather in late autumn was extremely cold. The rain landing on her body felt like small knives stabbing into

her.
Meredith could have stopped to wait for the rain to stop, but she continued aimlessly on the streets because she
needed the rain to sober her up.
She had been duped for so long. It was time to wake up. The rain was cold, but when it streaked past her face, it
was warm. She reached out to touch her face to realize that it was tears.
Even the passersby realized that she was crying. They quietly discussed among themselves,” It’s so cold. She’s not
carrying an umbrella and she’s crying so terribly. I’m sure it’s mostly a breakup.”
“No, I don’t think it’s a breakup. Look at her face. How could a man want a woman like her?”
“You’re right.”
The girls talked among themselves and left.
Meredith touched her face.
Yes. Her face had become like this because of Josiah too. It was because of him that she had lost everything. All of
the tragedies that happened to her were thanks to Josiah.
Yet, he could still pretend that nothing had happened, imprisoning her by his side, pretending to spoil her and sleep
with her.
