Chapter 236
“Why are you interested in a prostitute?” “I need to see how she looks right? What if the baby gets her bad looks?” Josiah laughed, “Grandma, isn’t it funny that you’re worried about this?” The more that she listened to their conversation, the more unsettled Meredith felt. Meredith wondered if Josiah deliberately wanted his grandmother to think that the child’s mother was a prostitute and later if he wanted to get rid of the child, Josiah’s grandmother would not be that affected.
After all, the Shelby family was a reputable family and even if Josialı’s grandmother really wanted a great-grandchild, she could find other ways to do so instead of relying on a prostitute. Meredith thought that Josiah was indeed cunning. Josiah’s grandmother was even more furious. “Josiah Shelby! You’re killing me!”
She then ended the call.
Putting down the phone, Josiah smiled at Meredith. “Did you hear that, Meredith Leighton? My grandmother is disgusted by the fact that you’re a prostitute, so we can’t be sure about the baby’s future. Even if she does acknowledge the child, she might not accept you as her granddaughter-in-law.” Gritting her teeth, Meredith seethed, “You’re despicable!”
“I’m not as cunning as you are, Miss Meredith,” Josiah sneered, “You want to see this to the end? I’ll gladly do it with you.”
He then turned around and walked into his bedroom.
The next day was a weekend.
Josiah woke up a little later than usual and headed downstairs for breakfast.
He asked flatly, “Where is she?”
“Miss Meredith is still in bed,” Lily replied. “Go get her for breakfast.”
Lily nodded and went upstairs.
Not wanting to meet Josiah, Meredith pulled the blanket over her face and said, “I still want to sleep a little longer. I’ll eat after.”
“But Sir said that you shouldn’t skip breakfast.”
