Chapter 493
Lily was frightened half to death. She suddenly did not know what to do.
Under desperation, she placed the tea by the side and shook her hands. She said, “No, no. Someone must be trying to harm you. Think of your relationship with Sir all this while. How could it be as bad as what they say? They are just trying to drive a wedge between you and him. Ma’am, don‘t believe them. You‘ll let them win if you believe them.”
“Then, tell me, where is Nia? Is she still alive or not!” Meredith’s overbearing gaze suddenly had hints of hope.
She wanted Lily to tell her that Nia was still alive so badly, that Nia was doing well. That way, she did not need to believe the stories that Ysabelle came up with.
However, she was disappointed. Seeing how Lily was at a loss for words, Meredith was extremely disappointed.
Nia was truly her daughter, and she was not alive anymore. It was one thing that Josiah had forced her to take abortion pills. Nia was already a child, yet he still could kill her. Was he still human?
No wonder he could lock Maeve up in prison without even batting an eyelid or forcing Ysabelle to kill herself.
“Ma‘am, let me explain...” Lily was frightened to death. She tried comforting Meredith. “Or perhaps wait a little while. Let Sir explain it to you. These are all misunderstandings!”
“I don‘t want to listen to any explanations covered in lies any more.” Meredith got up from the chair. Tears continued streaming down her face. She said, “From today onward, I want to investigate and look for the truth on my own. I will no longer believe a single word you all say!
Then, she turned around and rushed out of the door.
Lily frantically ran after her. “Ma‘am! Ma‘am! Listen to me! You‘ve really misunderstood!”
Meredith ran quickly and in a panic. Lily quickly took her phone out and called the driver. However, before the call connected, Meredith had already run far away.
After calling the driver, Lily quickly contacted Josiah. Hearing Lily‘s stuttering explanation, Josiah‘s expressions darkened. He asked, “What did you say? Edith has run away?”
“Y–Yes...” Lily panted and said, “she was initially still doing well, I went to get tea for her. When I returned, she changed.
“Someone has sent her a photo of Nia and told her about Nia. I – I haven‘t asked her about it but she had already run off.”
“Where did she run to?” Josiah furrowed his brows and asked.
“I don‘t know! She ran away quickly!” Lily was crying anxiously, “Sir, quickly send someone to go look for her. I think this time, she must have believed what the other person said. It‘s not that easy to coax her anymore!”
“I got it. Try searching around first,” Josiah said in a low voice before hanging up. “Mister Josiah, what happened?” Walter looked at Josiah‘s ugly expression from the rearview mirror.
Josiah dialed a number while instructing Walter, “Find a place to stop by the side of the road. Go and help look for Meredith first.” “What happened to Ma‘am?” Walter asked in surprise. Were they not preparing to get remarried? Why has she suddenly disappeared again? Was she kidnapped by someone again? Before Walter could react, Josiah had already gotten out of the car. Walter looked at the line of traffic in front of him, he quickly turned the car to the other side.
