chapter 209
“Okay then, take me to Josiah’s mansion tonight.” “What?” Meredith was a little stunned. She could not believe what she was hearing. “That simple?”
“Yes. I miss Josiah a little. I don’t have a reason to go to see him now that Yena is not there, so…” Ysabelle leaned forward and looked at Meredith. “You know what I mean, right?” Ysabelle has been troubled for two days. She could not find the perfect opportunity to drug Josiah. She was just wondering what excuse she should use to stay in Josiah’s mansion. If Meredith was willing to help her, that would work. Meredith noddled. “I understand. You want to go see Josiah tonight, right? Okay, I’ll help you, but you have to help me…” “Okay. It’s just doing a match test with that little b*stard. I can go do it,” Ysabelle interrupted Meredith. Although Ysabelle’s promises were unreliable, Meredith had no other choice. Other than hoping Ysabelle could find the kindness in her, what else could she do?
At night, Josiah returned to his mansion exhaustedly. The mansion was quiet. He scanned his surroundings and an inexplicable rage burned in him. What did that despicable woman treat his house as? She could just come and go as she wished?
He annoyedly tugged his tie free. He was just about to head upstairs when he suddenly heard a coquettish, gentle voice, “Josiah, you’re back.”
Josiah stopped in his tracks and looked in the direction of the back door.
Seeing Ysabelle carrying a cup of water coming over from the storage room, Josiah furrowed his brow and asked, “Why are you in my home?”
A hint of disappointment rose in Ysabelle’s heart. She knew that Josiah would have this reaction. He did not welcome her arrival at all. Which was why Ysabelle used Meredith.
“Josiah, when I went to see Yena in the hospital today, I saw that Meredith was feeling unwell, so I sent her back.”
