Still Loving You Nonetheless

The next day, Meredith was awoken by the torturing pain. She clutched her swollen forehead and got up with difficulty by supporting herself against the wall. She was stunned by her surroundings.

She quickly scanned around and realized that the bedroom looked rather familiar, yet foreign to her at the same time. Was she at…the Shelbys?

She looked closely and finally recognized it. She was at the Shelbys. This was the room she lived in with Josiah when she got married. However, why did she wake up there?

She closed her eyes and tried to think hard about the incidents that happened the night before. She remembered drinking a lot of alcohol, then accidentally passing out in the bathroom. She did not have any memories about how she arrived at the Shelbys.

The next memory she had was her slapping Josiah twice. Meredith quickly looked at her palm. Did she actually slap the devil twice? Also, Josiah did not kill her in rage? That did not seem like his character!

Meredith had no heart to speculate what Josiah was thinking. She quickly picked up her phone and dialed Zya. The phone was soon picked up.

“Zya, how is Nia?” Meredith asked eagerly.

“Nia is great. She kept asking for her mother and grandmother,” Zya asked concernedly,” Merelyn, how are you? Did Mister Josiah agree to let Aunty Alayna go?”

Meredith was instantly disappointed. She shook her head.

“No.”

She initially wanted to properly plead to Josiah, but she got drunk. She even slapped him twice. That devil must be extremely furious. Meredith was worried that he not only would not let her mother go, but he would instead make things worse.

Meredith took a deep breath and said, “Zya, please help me look after Nia a little while more. I’ll repay this favor.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t ask for anything in return. I’ll still take good care of Nia. It’s only…” Zya said helplessly, “You continuing this way is not a solution. You need to quickly end things and deal with them so you can continue living.”

“I know.” Meredith bit her lips and choked.

She had always known that this was not the way to go, but she had no other choice. Offending Josiah was like one foot already in hell. At that moment, she had Ysabelle to deal with too.

She truly did not know what she should do. Zya could not bear to hear Meredith crying. “Zya, although you need to solve problems, you have to find ways and ask politely, don’t keep going up against Mister Josiah.”

“Yes, I understand,” Meredith said, “Zya, I’m hanging up.”

After hanging up, Meredith wiped her tears away and collected her thoughts before heading out of the room.

The entire house was in silence. She did not know which room Josiah was in, so she could only search them one by one.

In the third room, she suddenly saw a person lying on the bed. It was Yena!

It turns out, Josiah did take Yena back home to care for her. He even let her stay in the bedroom closest to his study. 

Yena was clearly the one he loved.

Ever since Yena was injured, Meredith has never seen her anymore. She did not even know what she had become.
