Chapter 835
Maybe a person was easily moved and touched when he or she was at the most vulnerable moment. However, the reality Meredith faced had forced her to wake up from her imagination. She looked at him with a very plain and cold face, “Why are you here?”
Josiah rushed in and squatted before her to check out the wound that was about the size of a half palm on her ankle. He asked, “What happened? What did Charlie do to you?”
“He did nothing. I accidentally fell down.” Meredith urged the nurse to put on the bandage for her.
“You fell down by accident again?” Josiah was even more furious when he heard the answer. “Aren’t you sick of this excuse?”
“I really did fall down nearby this area.” Meredith glared at Josiah angrily. “But you, Mister Josiah, you know that we could easily cause misunderstanding every time we see each other. Why do you still come here? Did you purposely come here to create trouble for me?”
Josiah was out of words.
“I don’t want Charlie to misunderstand us. So Mister Josiah, please stay far away from me,” Meredith reprimanded.
“Where is he?” Josiah looked around and said remotely, “It’s good enough that he is not hurting you anymore. Do you think he has the mood to care about your well-being?”
“He doesn’t know I fell down,” Meredith defended Charlie.
“So why did you hurt yourself so badly on Christmas Day?” Josiah asked.
Meredith did not know how to explain the whole story to him. Thus, her only plan was to change the topic. “Where is Nia? Aren’t you celebrating Christmas with her? Where did you leave her again?”
Josiah talked with a slightly softer tone, “I ordered Walter to send her back home.”
“Do you know you will hurt Nia’s feelings by doing that?” Meredith scolded.
