“Good. I hope this will be settled soon.” “Don’t worry, Mister Josiah.” Leaving Yena’s ward, Josiah headed straight toward the lift. At the corner of the hallway, he suddenly noticed a familiar silhouette. He stopped in his tracks and glanced coldly toward the familiar person. Meredith did not expect to run into Josiah at the hospital. Startled, she hurriedly turned around and headed toward the fire escape exit.
“Stay where you are!” Meredith heard him ordering.
But she did not stop and quickened her steps instead.
All Meredith could think of was to avoid getting caught by Josiah. She could not risk letting Josiah know about Nia, if he did find out about her, Nia would be in danger. . Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
However, the more she ran away from him, the faster he chased her.
Because of the wound on her back, Josiah caught up to her easily.
“Meredith Leighton, do you really think that you can outrun me?” Grabbing her wrist, Josiah cornered her against the wall.
Meredith felt another piercing pain spreading through her back. She guessed that her wound was open again. “Let go of me, Josiah Shelby.” Avoiding his gaze, she turned her head to a side coldly. Josiah obviously did not let go of her. Glaring at her coldy, he said, “Meredith Leighton, it’s already been three years, are you still not willing to let Yena go?”
Meredith was puzzled. “I don’t understand what you’re saying.” “What are you doing here sneaking around Yena’s ward with a water bottle in your hand at midnight? Don’t tell me that you’re simply sleepwalking.”
Meredith was slightly taken aback. She did not know that Yena was transferred to this hospital.
It explained why Josiah thought of accusing her. Unbothered, she smiled and said, “Whatever you say. You won’t believe me anyway.” . Gritting his teeth, Josiah seethed, “Meredith Leighton, do you know that I hate how you always act so nonchalantly?”
“Have you forgotten how I was kneeling at your knees, crying and begging for you to believe me three years ago? I thought you hated how I looked back then too?” Josiah was rendered speechless. She was wrong If he had to compare, Josiah preferred the way she was back then. He liked the way she pleaded and begged with him like a pathetic dog, rather than her behaving like a porcupine, full of
“Please excuse me, Mister Josiah,” said Meredith. Josiah tightened the grip around her wrist and seethed, “You’re going to just leave?” “I did not harm Yena.” “Just because you didn’t harm her this time, it didn’t mean that you didn’t back then.” He then dragged her along with him toward the door and added, “You showed up just in time. Yena is urgently in need of blood.” Meredith nearly tripped by his brute force.
Trying to keep up with his steps, Meredith tried to explain, “I said that it wasn’t me who harmed Yena. I was already forced to pay for something that I didn’t even do. What else do you want from me?”
“I said it before too, as long as Yena stays unconscious, you can forget about having better days.” Josiah pushed her toward the doctor in charge and bellowed, “Doctor Leonard, I’ve found someone that has the same blood type as Yena. Take as much as you need from her.”
Staring at Meredith who was on the floor, Doctor Leonard was startled. “Mister Josiah, where did you find her?”
Ignoring his question, Josiah tugged the corners of his lips into a smirk and replied, “She ha given her blood to Yena before. You don’t have to run any tests on her.”
Doctor Leonard called for the nurses right away. Tears ran down her cheeks as the long needle pierced into her skin.
