Chapter 289


    Zade wrapped his hands over hers and said, “I’m really sorry, Merelyn. I shouldn’t have drugged you. I


    didn’t know that you needed the baby to save Nia, I’m sorry…”


    Meredith shook her head.


    What was the use of saying sorry now? Other than wanting to have Nia’s ashes back, Meredith wanted


    nothing else.


    Besides, Meredith knew that Nia would not be able to hang on until she birthed the baby either,


    Perhaps it was better this way.

    This way, she was able to cut ties with Josiahpletely. This way, she was able to leave the world


    without feeling guilty. Seeing how Meredith was not saying anything, Zade then added, “Merelyn, I still


    meant what I said, about bringing you along with me. Let’s leave this ce and start all over again,


    what do you say?” Meredith shook her head. “No, I don’t want to go anywhere.”


    It was too hard to stay alive. She did not want to start over again. She wanted to keep Niapany.


    She did not want Nia to be left alone. “Zade Brooks, I don’t resent you anymore and you don’t have to


    feel guilty toward me anymore,” Taking her hands from his grasp, she said, “leave, Zade.” “Merelyn…”


    “You should go. I want to be alone.” Zade had no other choice. Before leaving, he said, “Take care of


    yourself and give me a call if there’s anything that you need.”


    Meredith said nothing and simply buried her face in herp. Seeing how her body was trembling as she


    cried her heart out, Zade felt even more guilty. He gave a light pat on her head and finally walked out of


    the room. At the sound of the doors closing, Meredith slowly lifted up her head and fixed her gaze on


    the shattered pieces of the vase on the floor. She picked up a sharp broken piece of porcin vase and


    cut her wrist… Even though the Shelby Group had gotten rid of almost all the news on the inte,


    Josiah was still being secretly followed by reporters whenever he left the house. Josiah leaned into the


    car seat, not saying anything. The reporters started following him in his car. Mister Yoseph took a


    nce at the reporters that were following them and said to Josiah, “Sir, even though the team has


    gotten rid of all the negativements, people are still posting it. We might need Miss Meredith to


    cooperate with us.”


    “How is she supposed to cooperate with us in that state of hers?” “You’ve got a point,” Mister Yoseph


    sighed and added, “if we can’t rify the thing with Nia, then you should probably pay a visit to Miss


    Meredith at the hospital.” The inte was criticizing Josiah as being a heartless prick – abandoning


    his wife and killing his own daughter.


    Josiah did not really care much about how people thought of him but he was concerned about the


    reputation of hispany.


    Hence, it was important to create an image of him being a good husband. Josiah scoffed bitterly, “Must


    we do this?”


    “Sir, do you still resent Miss Meredith?”


    “It’s not about that. It’s just that I think it’s a bit cruel for us to use her when she’s already in this state.”


    “Sir,” Mister Yoseph said, “you are going to bring Miss Meredith back to your ce, sometimeter,


    right?”
