Chapter 243


    The shirt on her body was torn apart and she could feel raindrops hitting on her bare skin.


    But Meredith did not even feel cold.


    Her voice had turned hoarse from all the screaming but all she could do was plead and beg with them


    again, and again. “No, please don’t! Please let me go! I’m begging you!”


    One of the men grabbed her by her hair, whispered into her ear, and warned, “I thought I made it clear


    that the three of us will let you go if you behave and cooperate with us. If not… we’ll have to use brute


    force and you’d only end up more hurt.”


    “Help…” “Save your breath. No one will be able to hear you in this rain.” One of the men lowered his


    head, wanting to kiss her but Meredith knocked her head against his lips, causing him to hiss in pain.


    “What a stubborn b*tch!” The man was slowly getting impatient. “I’ll go first so hold her tight!” The man


    said to the other men. “Why do you get to go first? I want to go first too.” “No, I want to be the first.”


    The three of them started arguing. Meredith took the chance and struggled out from their grasp but she


    identally slipped and fell onto the ground. “My tummy-!”


    “We told you to not move around, right? Feel the pain now, don’t you?” The man dragged her back to


    him and said to the rest, “Come on now, quit the fighting. Let’s get this done with and leave.”


    Even though the other two men were unwilling, they did not want to drag it out too.


    After all, they were at the roadside, not in a motel.


    Meredith was held with her back against a tree and just when one of them was getting ready, a ray of


    bright light shone toward them. One of the men nced toward the car and cursed, “F*ck! Who is it!”


    “It’s me!” A man was seen getting down from a ck Rolls-Royce.


    The man was holding a ck umbre in his hand and had the other hand in his pocket. ncing


    coldly at them, he said, “So how is it ying with Josiah Shelby’s woman?” “Jo…Josiah Shelby?”


    Those men felt their legs turn weak at the mention of his name. The man who had his trousers already


    pulled down hurriedly pulled them back up and stammered,” Sorry, Mister Josiah. We didn’t know that


    this ugly… no, this prettydy belongs to you, that is why…”


    “So, are you giving up already?”


    “Yeah…yes.” Perhaps he was getting nervous, so the man struggled to pull his pants back up.


    Josiah nced at the man who had his trousers pulled down and then turned to look at Meredith who


    was shivering in fear.


    Josiah then lifted his leg andnded a kick between the man’s legs.


    The man let out a painful cry.


    At the sight of this, the other two men could already guess that they would end up the same.


    Both of them exchanged a look and charged toward Josiah.


    In less than a second, both of them were beaten up by Josiah.


    The men wanted to run away but they soon noticed a group of bodyguards walking toward them.


    “Sir.” The bodyguards greeted Josiah and noticed the three men that were sprawling pathetically on the


    floor. “Finish them,” said Josiah before walking toward Meredith.


    Sensing that someone was closing in on her, Meredith pulled her clothes tighter around herself, shook


    her head, and pleaded, “No, don’t touch me, please don’t touch me…….I am pregnant.”.. There was a


    flicker in Josiah’s dark, solemn eyes. For some reason, he felt sorry for her.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
