Chapter 528 Yuna and Jenny were afraid of her, and Lily did not dare to say anything more than persuade her to eat: Everyone was afraid of making the situation worse, so they did not dare to provoke her and approach her. Yuna and Jenny were pushing away the responsibility of taking care of her, and no one dared to deliver meals to Meredith. Lily had to go by herself. Jenny could not help but say, “Lily, Mrs. Shelby doesn’t eat the food, so why don’t you just stop sending food? What if she gets crazy and hurts you?” Lily glanced at her. “Whether she eats or not, she has to be fed. This is our job, our duty.” Jenny said, “Lily, I’m just worried that you won’t be able to escape because you’re too old, and Mrs. Shelby will hurt you.” After all, Mrs. Shelby had smashed the bowls and plates when they sent her food on various occasions. Fortunately, since Mrs. Shelby cut her palm, Mister Josiah ordered the bowls and cutleries to be replaced with plastic ones, which would not break. “Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.” Lily walked toward the second floor with the newly prepared food. Just like before, as soon as Lily pushed the door in, she heard Meredith’s indifferent words. “Take it away.” Lily paused for a while, then walked over and said, “Ma’am, you haven’t eaten or drank for two days. Please eat some food.” Meredith replied flatly, “I said, either Josiah will die or I will die.” They would not let her kill herself in the traditional way, so she starved herself to death. Lily sighed helplessly and said bravely, “Ma’am, your mother and Nia definitely don’t want you to torture yourself like this, and they don’t want you to fight against Mister Josiah every day for revenge.” Meredith’s chest immediately began to rise and fall when Lily mentioned her mother and Nia. Lily did not notice her mood changing drastically, and she continued, “They are the people closest to you, Ma’am. I believe that in Heaven, they definitely hope that you can let go of your hatred and live a good life with Mister Josiah.” “Just like how it was before?” Meredith said in a cold tone.
This coldness made Lily tremble involuntarily.
She coughed dryly, and as soon as Meredith heard the word ‘yes’, she smashed the tissue box that she had picked up.
“Get out! Get out of here!”
With a ‘bang’, Meredith tossed the meal that Lily had just brought, along with the tray at the door of the bedroom.
“Don’t be angry, Ma’am, I’ll leave. I’ll leave right away.” Lily regretted her rudeness. She knew that Nia was taboo for Mrs. Shelby, yet she dared to mention her name. It was really inappropriate. As soon as Josiah came upstairs, he saw Lily hurrying downstairs with a tray. He did not need to ask more to know what was going on. “Mister Josiah, be careful,” Lily sighed helplessly and hurried downstairs. Josiah will naturally be careful, after all, he did not want to die yet.
Meredith’s face was flushed with anger, and she had nowhere to vent.
Seeing Josiah, she immediately rushed up to him and punched and kicked him. “Josiah! Why aren’t you dead yet? Why aren’t you dead yet!” “If you don’t want to die, let me die, let me go down to accompany Nia! i’d rather die to accompany Nia than to live such a suffocated life!”
Josiah grabbed her waving hands and stared at her. “Nia doesn’t need such a cowardly mom to accompany her, so you should be good and stay here!” “I’m cowardly?” Meredith was stunned for a moment, then nodded while crying, “Yes, I’m too cowardly, I couldn’t protect Nia when she’s alive, and I can’t protect her when she’s dead. I’m really too weak, I don’t deserve to be her mom.”
