EN By Snow De Eira Chapter 479


    Meredith held his hand in hers and sobbed, “Joe, you look like you‘re in a lot of pain. Try not to talk too


    much and get some sleep.”


    Josiah shook his head softly. “It‘s okay. I‘m feeling alright.” “How are you alright when you‘re injured this


    badly?” “I‘m a man. I‘m not that weak,” Josiah was even chuckling, “Edith, I‘m d that you‘re okay. I


    was really worried that you‘ll fall with me.”


    “I should be the one who should be worried,” Meredith sniffled and added, “didn‘t I already tell you that


    the walkway is dangerous and that you should note to me? Why did you stille? If something


    bad really happened to you, I...” She could not bring herself to finish her sentence.


    Josiah teased her, “And what would happen if I died from the fall?”


    “What about me and our baby then?” Meredith stroked her tummy and said, “I forgot that we don‘t have


    a child.”


    “Well, I‘m not dead, am I?”


    “But you‘re so injured,” Meredith was getting frustrated, “in any case, don‘t be too reckless next time.”


    Josiah smiled bitterly. “But if I don‘t go up there to save you, you‘ll fall to your death. And what happens


    to me and our baby if you die?“.


    “There‘s no baby, Joe!” Meredith shook her head.


    And Josiah was the one who told her that.


    “We do,” Josiah nodded his head softly and added, “we will have a child together.”


    “Liar!” Meredithnded a punch on his arm.


    But she immediately regretted her actions and gasped, “Sorry, I forgot that you injured your arm. Did I


    hurt you?”


    “It‘s alright. I injured the other arm.” Josiah stared at her and said, “Edith, please forgive me. I didn‘t


    mean to hide it from you.”


    “I know. You only did it to protect me, right?” Meredith shed a grin at him and said, “I‘ll forgive you


    because you saved my life. But there‘s no next time, okay?”


    “Next time...”


    “The next time, I‘ll get mad at you and cut ties with you!” Meredithpleted his sentence before he


    could even say anything.


    Looking at Meredith who looked serious, Josiah felt slightly relieved.


    At the same time, he was d that he was actually injured.


    If he did not go all the way to save her and fell off the building, Meredith would have believed what


    Ysabelle had told her.


    “Joe, what‘s wrong?” Meredith asked in concern when she noticed how Josiah was staring nkly at


    the ceiling. Josiah turned to look at her. “It‘s nothing. I was simply stunned when you said that you‘d


    want to cut ties with me.”


    “I said that I‘d only cut ties with you if you lie to me again.” “But what if therees a time when I lie to


    you again?” “We‘ll cut ties then.”


    Josiah felt his heart go cold.


    Meredith added, “So you shouldn‘t lie to me anymore, Joe.” “Edith, can‘t you say something


    comforting? After all, I‘m a patient here,” Josiah sighed helplessly. Meredith immediately nodded and


    leaned her head on his shoulder. “I‘ll say something nice now. Joe, thank you for risking your life to


    save me and thank you for not giving up on me. For that, I am really touched and grateful.” “Don‘t


    worry, Joe. I will be really, really nice to you,” Meredith kissed him on his cheek and asked, “feeling


    better now?” “Mm, much better,” Josiah added, “but I‘d feel much better if you promise not to leave me


    no matter what happens.”


    “But that‘s not possible, is it?” Meredith looked solemn. “We should uphold our integrity, shouldn‘t we?


    It is the same for me as well, you shouldn‘t forgive me if I did you wrong.”


    Josiah remained quiet and said nothing.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
