Chapter 922
At that moment, even if Meredith were to deny it, Charlie would not believe her either.
Meredith admitted it straightaway and also explained, “Charlie, I was originally drinking with a friend last night. After
that, I don’t know why Josiah found me and brought me back to his mansion.”
“What have both of you done?”
Meredith was speechless.
That was such a direct question that Meredith truly had no way to answer.
However, staying silent meant that she had admitted it.
Charlie finally turned his face to look at her. “Meredith, are you not even planning to lie anymore?”
“Charlie, I’m sorry…I truly was just drunk.”
“Judging from the mark on your body, it must have been quite a wild night.” He was looking at her collar. Meredith
felt sheepish by his looks and she looked toward the window wall.
Her figure was reflected on the window wall, and she could vaguely see that there was a hickey on her neck that

was not fully covered by her clothes.
It was no wonder why Charlie would be so stirred up!
She subconsciously used her hand to tug on her collar and was suddenly at a loss for words.
She was already caught red-handed, so what would be the point for her to explain any further?
“Charlie, this is indeed my mistake this time. How about you just tell me what to do then? I’ll do as you say no
matter what you want.”
Charlie smiled miserably. “Other than locking you up, what else can I do?”
“Charlie!” Meredith could not understand him. “What kind of solution is this?”
“Otherwise? Am I supposed to continue listening to those useless promises and guarantees of yours, and then
continue to be cheated on by you like a fool?”
“I…” Meredith was feeling helpless. “Fine. I know that no matter what I say now, you won’t believe me and you
won’t listen to me either. Charlie, if you feel that you’re hurt, if you don’t want to live this kind of life anymore, you
can voice it out, and I can let you have whatever you wish for.”
When he heard these ‘understanding’ words of hers, Charlie felt even more upset instead.
“Meredith, are you asking me for a divorce now?”

“It’s not that I want to get a divorce, but…I’m just afraid that you don’t want to continue living your life with me
anymore.”
“Of course, I want to continue to live my life together with you.”
“Thank you, Charlie. Thank you for still being willing to live life together with me. Then, let’s us…live well together.”
She held his hand while tears welled up in her eyes.
It was unclear if she was moved or feeling guilty
She did not expect that she would turn their lives into such a mess. She truly has failed Charlie and herself.
“Alright. Just be good and stay here from now on, Meredith. Don’t go anywhere else anymore.
I now
Meredith was stunned and speechless.
Charlie continued, “This way, you won’t be harassed by Josiah anymore, and you won’t need to be brought back to
his house to spend the night anymore.”
“Charlie, can you not be like that?”

“Is this not good?”
“Of course, it’s not good,” Meredith said with difficulty, “if you lock me up at home, how would I be any different
from a criminal? I am a person, after all. I am a normal person who needs to work and needs to have my
freedom.”
“You’ve said that before, but as soon as you went out, you either went to the Shelby Group to look for Josiah or was
brought back to his mansion to spend the night.” Charlie shook his head sadly. “Meredith, can’t stand this kind of life
anymore, so don’t be like that anymore, alright?”
“Alright. I promise that I won’t meet with Josiah anymore in the future. Is that enough?”
“You’ve said it yourself that he would come and harass you.”
“No…”
“There’s no need for you to say anything anymore. Let’s just do this,” Charlie said, “you can work at home as well.
Hurry up and attend to your work then.”
