Chapter 252
“So you think it is okay for you to yell at the mother of my child?”
Josiah’s response crushed the nurse’s hope,
But of course, she remained friendly.
“My apologies, Sir. It is our hospital’s policy that the patient needs to settle the payment before receiving any treatment. I am put in charge to make sure Miss Meredith pays her bills.” “I’ll settle the payment in a while. You can leave now.” Even though the nurse did not know who Josiah was, she was intimidated by him and she hurriedly scrambled out of the room. Meredith thought to herself that reality was indeed harsh, and people with good looks always had the upper hand.
She traced her fingers across the scars on her face and thought to herself that after Nia gets better, she should start saving up to fix her face.
But it was just a small wish of hers. She did not even know what tomorrow held for her.
“You could have called Lily or Yoseph regarding the medical bills,” Josiah walked toward her and tossed the paper bag in his hand onto the bedside table.
Meredith replied, “I have money but I don’t have it with me.”
Josiah nodded. “Right, I nearly forgot that Liam paid you a million dollars for your service. I bet it’d be enough to support you for a few more years.”
Meredith clenched her hands into a fist. She could not be bothered to argue with him.
She had used up more than half of the money that Liam had lent her. The rest of the amount she needed to pay for Nia’s surgery. In other words, she was still poor.
