Chapter 52
“Who are you? What are you doing?” Meredith frantically struggled.
When the lobby manager saw someone causing chaos, he immediately brought men over and surrounded them. He asked angrily, “Where are you guys from! Are you here to cause trouble?!
The manager and his crew might outnumber. the two men, but all the two men needed to say was, “Sir, are you sure you want to steal the Luna Club’s staff?” One sentence was all it took for the manager’s expressions to change. The Luna Club was bought over by Mister Josiah of the Shelby Group. This was a piece of news that had been spread around like wildfire for the past few days. The lobby manager naturally would have heard about it.
Who would dare go up against Josiah Shelby? Unless they did not want to live anymore.
“She’s…from the Luna Club?” The lobby manager stuttered.
“Yes. She is bound by a contract.”
Meredith’s expressions changed. She immediately said, “Mister Lowe, don’t listen to them. I have already quit the Luna Club.” Even if she had already quit the Luna Club, as long as she was someone that Josiah Shelby wanted, Mister Lowe would not allow her to stay. He even waved at the bodyguards hurriedly. “Take her away quickly, please!” Meredith was speechless. She never thought that Mister Lowe would be such a coward.
Sure enough, everyone was afraid of Josiah.
Half an hour later, Meredith was thrown to the ground in front of Josiah’s feet. Just by looking at his shiny leather shoes, Meredith’s heart skipped a beat. She was nervous and terrified.
Josiah was really forcing her to death!
“Meredith Leighton, you were the one who smelled the 82 Lafete. You were also the one who confirmed the price. Why? Are you trying to run away from debt?”
Meredith did not dare to lift her head. She did not dare to look at him. She did not even dare to mention that he was the one that smashed that bottle of Lafete.
“You mean that bastard child of yours? Is her life worth as much as my wine?” Meredith’s heart constricted. She looked up at him with teary eyes. “Josiah, aren’t you afraid of retribution when saying such things?”
Josiah chuckled. He raised his eyebrow nonchalantly. “Will I?” “Even if you don’t believe that she is your daughter, even if she is just a stranger to you, you shouldn’t say such things, right?” Josiah leaned forward and squeezed Meredith’s chin, lifting it up.
