Chapter 260
Within a few seconds, Yoseph’s voice was heard from the other end of the phone. “Hello Ma’am, Sir is currently in a meeting. Would you…” Josiah’s grandmother cut him off urgently, “I’ll give him ten seconds to get on the phone.” Yoseph was startled and quickly informed Josiah. Not long after, Josiah was on the phone. “What is it, Grandma?”
Josiah’s grandmother said bluntly, “Josiah Shelby, I want you to go to Crest Care right now and get yourself tested to see if you’re a match to be Nia’s bone
marrow donor.”
Josiah was in the middle of a meeting with the board of directors and his grandmother’s voice was loud and clear enough for the audience to hear.
Josiah cleared his throat awkwardly, got up from his chair, and walked out the door. “Grandma, did Merelyn say something to you?”
“We’ll talk about that later. I want you to go to Crest Care and get tested right
now.”
“Grandma…”
“Shut up! Get yourself there right now!’
Josiah’s gaze darkened as he thought to himself that he should never have trusted Meredith. “What happened, Sir?” Yoseph asked. “My grandmother must have been brainwashed by Meredith and now she wants me to get tested to see if I’m a match to be Nia’s donor.” Josiah tightened his grip around the phone. It was clear that he was simmering in anger.
Yoseph asked carefully, “Sir, I think that there must be a reason as to why Miss Meredith has been determined to get you tested. Perhaps something had gone wrong with the results from the paternity test?”
Meredith shook her head, turned the phone to silent, and put away her phone.” You wanted to go to the washroom, right? Let’s get you there.”
