Chapter 1053 Meredith pushed him away and hissed, “What do you think you‘re doing, Josiah? Can you please stop adding trouble to my life?” “Edith, are you planning to keep blaming yourself?” Looking down at her, Josiah went on, “Or do you think that they‘ll let you go if you blame yourself and say sorry?
“No. That will only affirm that you‘ve done something wrong and that will only fuel them to make you feel more guilty until you won‘t be able to stand up tall.”
Meredith thought that Josiah was right but aside from admitting to her mistakes, what else could she possibly do?
Was she supposed to tell everyone about everything that went down between Charlie and her? And then was she supposed to put all the blame on Charlie?
Still, with his arm around Meredith‘s shoulder, he then said to the group, “You guys are right that something‘s going on between me and Meredith. But this has nothing to do with Meredith. I am the one who wouldn‘t leave her alone.”
“You‘re the one who wouldn‘t leave her alone?” One of the ladies looked at them in disbelief and went on, “You clearly can have any type of woman that you want, why would you want someone like her?”
“You‘re right that I can have any woman that I want and it is exactly because of my ignorant thoughts that I‘ve ended up being a heartless bastard. I‘ve hurt my wife and my daughter terribly that she had no choice but to leave Jehovah City with our daughter.”
“I relate to the saying that you‘ll only cherish something once it‘s gone. I only realized how important Meredith is to me when she was gone. That is why I‘ve tried everything that I could to get her back,” Josiah took a glance at Meredith who was in his arms, and went on, “it was the same back then it will be the same in the future. I will not give up until you come back to me.”
His latter sentence was meant for Meredith to hear.
