Chapter 290
“‘Yeah.” “That works then. From now on, Miss Meredith’s home will be the Shelby’s mansion. And only when the Shelby Group is stable, that you, Miss Meredith, and Nia would be safe.” Mister Yoseph then added, “So to conclude, we are not using Miss Meredith. We are simply protecting your family.” Right then, Mister Yoseph gasped in shock, “Sir, shit!” Josiah had just closed his eyes when they shot wide open at Yoseph’s sudden gasp. “Someone had posted the picture of Miss Meredith attempting suicide,” said Yoseph as he showed the photo to Josiah.
In the picture, Meredith was lying lifelessly on the bed with one of her hands dropping from the bedside and there was a pool of blood on the floor.
Along with the picture was a caption stating that Meredith took her own life because she was abandoned by her husband and her daughter had passed away.
Josiah’s eyes darkened. He then said to Walter, “Drive faster.” Whereas Mister Yoseph hurriedly made calls to people to take down the picture from the internet.
By the time Josiah arrived at the hospital, Meredith was in the ER. He stopped a nurse who passed by and asked, “How is Miss Meredith?” “Don’t worry, Sir. She was lucky that we found her early. She’s stable now.” Only then did Josiah feel relieved.
But the nurse added, “But it seemed like Miss Meredith had lost the will to live. We’re worried that she might not want to wake up at all.”
Lost her will to live…
Indeed, Meredith had chosen to take her own life Josiah asked, “Can I go in to see her?”
