Still Loving You Nonetheless novel Chapter 45

Even her intention for stepping into the mansion once more was extremely pathetic and ridiculous.

She rang the doorbell twice before the intricately carved gate slowly moved. She entered without any hesitation. Looking at Josiah sitting on the sofa regally, then looking at his cold, handsome face, Meredith’s heart suddenly stopped beating for two seconds.

However, she still could not help but rush to him and say, “Mister Josiah, Nia is in a bad condition. She needs to have an injection at seven sharp every day, if not her life would be in danger. I beg you, please return her to me. Let me take her to the hospital.”

Josiah looked at her. His long slender fingers twirled around the teacup.

Meredith was extremely anxious, yet he slowly said, “This is the first time you return home in three years, all just because you want that bastard from me?”

“She is not a bastard!” Meredith was flustered.

“She came out from the affair you had with Yoel in the bedroom upstairs. Isn’t that just a bastard?”

“No. Nia is just a three-year-old. Josiah, you can’t call her that.” “If not? What should I call her? My precious daughter?” Josiah sneered and asked.

Meredith looked at his cold handsome face. She thought back to the scene three years ago where no matter how she explained to him, he did not believe her.

In the end, she bit her lips and said, “Josiah, Nia is only a child I adopted from the orphanage. She is not your daughter or mine.” “You adopted?” Josiah raised his eyebrows.

Meredith was at a loss for words. She panicked once again. She never thought that Josiah would observe so closely that he saw how Nia looked up close. “Three years ago, you lied to me and said that the child was mine. Three years later, you’re lying again, saying that you adopted the child from the orphanage. It looks like you and Yoel, the adulterer, are on quite good terms.”

Josiah stood up from the sofa and walked toward Meredith. He turned to the side, raised his hand, and lifted her chin.”No wonder you would stab me with a knife for him back then.”

Meredith shook her head. “I’m not lying to you. I adopted Nia from the orphanage.” “Are you sure?” There was barely any distance between them. Josiah’s hot breath landed on

If I find out that she’s your child, Pll strangle her to death…” Josiah forced every word out. Meredith was frightened half to death that her heart almost popped out. She looked at Josiah with widened eyes. “Y-You…Josiah, what are you talking about?” “What? Are you afraid?” Josiah gritted his teeth. “So, you admit it? She is the bastard of a child you had with that adulterer?”.

“No...
