Chapter 762
Finding it hard to swallow her food, Yena lifted her head to meet Josiah’s eyes as her eyes turned red-rimmed.
Not only was she devastated by her mother’s passing, but she was also wretched that Josiah was doubting her. Hence, tears started welling up in her eyes.
“It was Meredith who told me that, she…”
“That’s impossible!” Before she could even finish her sentence, Josiah cut her off and went on, “Meredith is not the type to threaten someone. Even if she can be cruel sometimes, she is still a kind person deep down.” “Sir, was she really not the one who pushed my mother off the building?” “I first thought that it was her too, but after your poisoning incident, I am starting to suspect otherwise,” Josiah went on, “rest assured that I will give you an explanation that you’ll be satisfied with regarding Miss Leah’s death.” “An explanation that I’ll be satisfied with?” With tears running down her cheeks, Yena asked,” Josiah Shelby, it is an undeniable truth that my mother is dead. What kind of explanation do you think I’d be satisfied with?”
“I know I can’t bring your mother back to life, but I won’t allow evil to get away with this. That is why I’m requesting an investigation of the incident to uphold justice for you and your mom.”
“What’s the use in all of this when my mom is already gone?” Yena sobbed.
She then looked at him and asked, “Sir, I know that Meredith is a lovable person and fine, let’s assume that she’s not the one who harmed my mother, but what about those things that she did back then? Am I supposed to forgive her for all of that?” “Yena, I don’t think that it was Meredith who pushed you down the stairs.” “You…” Yena got anxious. “Sir, are you saying that I’m lying?”
“‘Yes.”
Stunned, Yena did not expect that Josiah would be this straightforward. “Unless you can offer me a proper explanation on your poisoning incident,” Josiah’s voice turned cold as he went on, “for example, why were you unconscious for so long when you’re not severely poisoned? And also why you suddenly regained consciousness as soon as Meredith ran away.’
