Chapter 369
“I agree with her on this,” Liam added, “Miss Meredith would especially need close friends like me to be around.”
He then passed another glass to Josiah.
“So? Should I drop by and pay her a visit?”
“Forget it.
I have no plans on introducing you to her again.”
“Why? I really want to meet her,” Liam whined, “you‘re not that narrow–minded now, are you? I mean, I used to help her out, don‘t you remember? She…” “Shut up!” Josiah cut him off annoyedly, stood up from the couch, and said, “I‘m leaving now.
Enjoy your night.”
“You heartless bastard,” Liam threw an empty beer can at him and said, “guess what, the more you don‘t want me to meet her, the more I want to go see her…”
Before he could even finish his sentence, Josiah was already long gone.
Quinley smiled at Liam, got onto her feet, and followed Josiah.
She found Josiah in the parking lot.
“Mister Josiah, are you leaving now?” “Yeah.
What‘s up?” Josiah asked.
“Oh, it‘s nothing.
I thought of asking when it‘ll be more convenient for you so that I can drop by to visit Meredith,” Quinley smiled and went on, “I wanted to talk to her more at the party but she was badly surprised by Maeve.”
“Miss Quinley, I thought I‘ve made it clear that Meredith will not be taking guests for now.” “Not even me?” Quinley nodded disappointedly, “Okay then.
Perhaps some other time when she‘s feeling better.” She said goodbye to Josiah but suddenly turned around and asked, “You‘re heading home, right? Do you mind giving me a ride?” Josiah wanted to reject her but Quinley glanced over at one of the men who were in the bar, and she looked frightened.
“Mister Josiah, I…I‘m a little scared.” Josiah followed her gaze and noticed a man who was staring at her.
He then said, “Come on in.
Quinley immediately got into the car.
