Chapter 165
“Miss Meredith…”
“Wait, that’s not right.” Before going on, Meredith paused then added, “You might be right, Lily. If I were locked up in jail, he wouldn’t be able to torture me anymore, would he? Of course, he wouldn’t want me to be locked up in jail. That is why he would rather lock me up in the basement to torture me, than to get his revenge for Yena.” With a solemn expression on her face, Meredith nodded. “Yes, that must be it.” Hence, she had to think of a way to escape. She refused to be thrown into a psychiatric ward like back then. She refused to be forced to the brink of death to the point that she had to jump off the cliff to take her own life. She still had to save her mother and Nia. Seeing how Meredith was rambling on without making any sense, Lily could only sigh. “Miss Meredith, you’re not feeling well. You should think about this once you feel better and are able to think clearly.”
Meredith got anxious. “Lily, I am thinking clearly.” “Hey, there. I know, I know,” Lily comforted her patiently. “In any case, you should focus on getting better.”
Meredith finally kept quiet.
Walking out of the basement, Lily ran into Josiah who was coming downstairs.” Sir, do you need me to take care of Miss Yena?” “It’s alright. I’m planning to send her back to the hospital.” “Why?”
“There are too many people around.” Josiah then headed toward the door. Seeing how he was not asking about Meredith, Lily hence said to him, “Sir, Miss Meredith is still having a fever. Are you really sure about keeping her locked away in the basement?”
