Chapter 70
Josiah did not agree to her request right away but said instead, “We’ll see.” Feeling pleased, Ysabelle pulled into a smile.
She could not wait for Yena to move back into Josiah’s place as she then would be able to have more time with Josiah.
Meredith finally saw Zya showing up at work. At the sight of Zya, Meredith hesitated, not knowing what to ask. She could not bring herself to ask Zya about Zade. Zya, of course, noticed the worried look on Meredith’s face. She comforted her, “Don’t worry. Zade is doing fine and he has already left Jehovah City.” “Zade…he really left?”
And he left this quickly? Meredith was worried that Zade would not do what Josiah had asked of him and the fact that Josiah might hurt him because of that. Nodding her head, Zya added, “Zade had told me what happened last night. To be fair, if I were him, I wouldn’t have been able to accept the love of my life…doing those things either.”
Meredith felt her face burning up.
“I’m sorry, Zya. Last night, I…”
“I understand. You did those to save my brother and Zade understands too, but…”
Zya shook her head and continued, “All I could say is that Mister Josiah is not someone that we should go against.” “I did this to your brother. He had to leave Jehovah City because of me.” Hesitating, Meredith added, “Zya, I’ll talk to Josiah and ask him to take mercy on Zade.”
Meredith knew that Josiah would not even care to talk to her.
“It’s fine,” Zya shook her head and added, “Zade had decided to leave Jehovah City not because he was threatened by Josiah, mainly because…he himself wanted to run away.”
