Still Loving You Nonetheless novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23

In the dimly–lit private room, Meredith was kneeling on the floor that was covered in shards of glass and she was holding tightly onto a pile of cash in her arms. But what really startled Miss Josie was the gruesome sight of Meredith‘s bloody back.

“Um...Mister Josiah, please do accept my sincerest apologies,” Miss Josie who had always abide by the rule that customers were always right, quickly apologized to Josiah as soon as she stepped foot into the room and continued,

“Merelyn is not from the customer servicing department so she has no experience in offering services for men. I‘m so sorry that she had offended you, Mister Josiah...”

She then turned to Meredith and scolded, “Merelyn, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and ask Mister Josiah for forgiveness.”

“The high and mighty Miss Leighton doesn’t know how to deal with men? Are you sure you‘re not mistaken about that, Miss Josie?” Josiah laughed mockingly and went on, “I seriously think that it‘s a loss for your club if you‘re not using her as one of your best girls.”

Miss Josie had no idea about Meredith‘s real identity, hence she simply nodded in agreement to what Josiah had said, “You‘re right, Mister Josiah.”

“Since you agree with me, let‘s have her transferred to the customer servicing department starting from tomorrow night.”

“Huh?” Miss Josie was startled.

“Is there a problem with that? I see that she is obsessed with money,” Josiah paused and added, “Oh, and I think Mister Leon has his eyes on her. You can have her spend a night with Mister Leon.”

Stepping across the floor that was scattered with shards of glass, Josiah headed for the door.

“I‘m sorry, Mister Josiah!” Meredith cried as she wrapped her arms around one of Josiah‘s legs. With tears in her eyes, she pleaded, “It‘s my fault, it’s all my fault. Please forgive me, Mister Josiah.”

Meredith could never bring herself to sleep with Mister Leon. Josiah turned his head, looked down at her, and said, “It‘s not your fault. It‘s never the high and mighty Miss Leighton‘s fault, and neither would she apologize for her wrongdoings.”
