Chapter 107
Upon reading that Josiah was excluded as the biological father of the tested child, Meredith felt her mind go blank. “Meredith Leighton, I have given you the chance you so badly wanted, and this is what I get for trusting you? This is what you meant when you insisted that she is my biological daughter?
Staring down at her coldly, Josiah snickered when he saw how Meredith was trembling,” What’s wrong? Are you getting scared now that the truth is finally revealed?” “And you thought that I would blindly believe what you said to me last night and would forget about even running a paternity test?” “It’s…it’s not like that.” Shaking her head frantically, Meredith finally found her voice, “It’s really not as it seemed. Joe, these results must be manipulated.” “Here we go again, aren’t we?” “No, Nia is really your daughter. You must have tested the wrong sample…” Meredith crawled toward Josiah, tugged at the bottom of his trousers, and cried, “Joe, you have to believe me. Aside from you, I’ve never slept with any other guy, I really didn’t!” With a look of disdain on his face, Josiah flung away her hand and seethed, “Lily, play the video taken of her and Yoel in the room that night.”
Lily carefully called out, “Sir, this…” “Right now!”
Cowering in fear, Lily left the room and soon returned with a thumb drive in her hands.
The room was instantly filled with embarrassing whining sounds and Meredith could not bring herself to look at the screen. Covering her ears with her shaky hands, she shook her head and sobbed, “It’s not what it seemed, it’s really not…”
“How is it not?” Josiah leaned over, and grabbed her hair from behind, forcing her to look at the video that was playing on the screen.
