Chapter 1000 “Edith, don’t be like this.” Josiah hugged her in his arms and comforted her, “I know you’re upset. Just cry if you’re upset.”
Meredith finally broke down and sobbed, “Why… why would this happen? Why…?”
Why would God treat Charlie that way?
“If Charlie knew how sad you are, he would surely be very sad too.” Josiah comforted her helplessly,” Edith, Charlie saved you so you could live well…”
“But I don’t want him to die for me! I don’t want that!”
Charlie’s accident happened because of her. At that moment, he fell off the cliff because of her again.
Mary was right. She was always dragging him down and hurting him…
“Edith…”
Josiah was just about to continue comforting her when Meredith suddenly grabbed him by his clothes and yelled, “It’s all your fault! It’s all your fault! If you did not give Yena all those false illusions, why would she hurt Charlie repeatedly!”
Although she was the one Yena wanted to hurt, it was always Charlie that protected her from harm.
Josiah did not get angry at her complaints. He even nodded furiously. “Edith, you are right. This is all my fault. The person who should be remorseful and blaming themselves should be me, so stop blaming yourself, please?”
To lighten her psychological burden, he continued saying, “If back then I didn’t mistake her for you and let her stay with me, I wouldn’t have brought her hope and false fantasies. If I were crueler back then, getting someone to get rid of her, she wouldn’t have used getting treated as an excuse to escape to kidnap you.”
His words were filled with regret. It was a real regret. This was why no matter how Meredith blamed him or complained about him, he could not defend himself.
Meredith’s cold was not healed yet. Under the blow of Charlie’s death, she soon passed out in Josiah’s arms
Josiah looked at her swollen eyes from crying. He carefully wiped away her tears and brought her to bed.
