Chapter 168
Turning around, Josiah then headed for the door. Behind him was Meredith who was on her knees, begging while crying, “Nia is not Yoel’s child, you have to believe me, Josiah. Please believe me once more… please save her…”
Josiah had turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to her pleadings and cries. To Lily, he said, “Keep a close watch on her and send her back to the basement!”
Lily could not bring herself to say anything.
She did not dare to plead with Josiah and could only turn to Mister Yoseph for help. “Even though Miss Meredith’s life is not in danger anymore, she did lose a lot of blood. Could we let her stay in the hospital for a few more days?” . .
Yoseph replied, “Don’t worry, I’ll try to talk to Mister Josiah.”
By the time Yoseph rushed to the entrance, Josiah had already gotten into the car.
He quickly got into the car. He waited for quite a while before finally asking, “Sir, what do you plan to do with Miss Meredith? We can’t possibly keep her locked away in the basement forever, right?”
“I don’t see a problem with that. At least we’re able to keep her from harming others.”
“But…she has a child to look after.”
“The child is not worth it anyway.” Leaning his back against the car seat, Josiah closed his eyes.
It was clear that Josiah did not wish to speak of the matter anymore. Yoseph hesitated before finally adding, “But the wound on her wrist is quite deep, and what if her wound gets infected while she stays in the basement? I think…it’s best if we keep her at the hospital for another two days.”
