EN By Snow De Eira Chapter 574


    Chapter 574 In the evening, as usual, Meredith had made soup for Josiah.


    Josiah was working in his study when Meredith entered the room with a bowl of soup in her hand. She


    put down the tray and sat down in a chair.


    Josiah took a nce at her. “Seems like you have a lot of time on your hands.”


    “Yeah. I’ve got no job, no kids. There’s only so much that I can do,” Meredith replied tly.” since


    there’s nothing for me to do, let me keep youpany then.”


    Josiah studied the expression on her face and pulled into a smirk “Meredith, Doctor Joshua will not call


    at this time. So you can save your time from waiting around here.” Josiah refused to believe that


    Meredith would want to keep himpany while he was working. He immediately thought that


    Meredith was waiting for Doctor Joshua to call. Meredith was exposed immediately. Not denying


    anything, she simply asked, “When would he usually call then?”


    “Not sure. Depends on his mood.”


    “Can you make a call to him?” Meredith walked over to him as she stared at him with that look of


    desperation in her eyes.


    Looking back at her, Josiah replied, “What’s the use even if I call him first? The answer will be the


    same. If there’s any progress on Nia’s condition, Doctor Joshua would be in contact with me right


    away.”


    Meredith was speechless.


    Meredith had already expected the answer but still, she wanted to see if Doctor Joshua would call.


    Josiah put his work aside and started drinking the soup that Meredith had brought for him.


    He took a sip of the soup and then frowned. “What soup is this? It tastes weird.” Meredith nced at


    him and said, “Don’t worry, it’s not poisoned.” Josiah of course knew that the soup was not poisoned


    but the soup tasted weird and it was hard to swallow.

    Looking at his scrunched-up face, Meredith added, “You’re still recovering aren’t you? It’s a herbal soup


    that would help with your recovery.”


    Josiah sniffed at the soup, lifted his head, and looked at her. “You want me to recover fast? Aren’t you


    worried that you won’t be able to get out of bed again tomorrow?”


    Even though the herbal soup did have the function, that was never Meredith’s intention.


    “I’ve picked the herbs personally and it’s really good for your recovery. Here, let me feed you.” Meredith


    reached out her hand but was stopped by Josiah.


    “You’re going all out simply because you want to see Nia, yes?” Josiah was skeptical that Meredith


    would risk herself being ‘tormented’ again and prepared the herbal soup for him. Meredith avoided his


    gaze. “I’m d that you’re aware.” Perhaps Josiah was tired of Meredith who was always at his throat,


    he was pleased to see Meredith tame and well-behaved.


    Tugging the corners of his lips, Josiah sat up straight. “Feed me then. With your lips.”


    Her hands around the bowl shook a little. Meredith cursed at Josiah under her breath. Did he really


    enjoy teasing her that much? “What’s wrong? You don’t want to?” Josiah arched one of his brows and


    added, “1 remembered you did a great jobst time.”


    Meredith thought to herself, ‘It’s not like you’d let me go if I said I don’t want to do it.’


    Meredith knew better that he would never.


    She would never be able to get away whenever Josiah had made up his mind. For the sake of wanting


    to get away from him as soon as possible, Meredith took a sip of the soup and pressed her lips against


    his lips. Meredith decided to sit on hisp because it was difficult to feed him while standing up.


    Josiah’s body tensed up as he reflexively wrapped his arms around her waist.


    In a slightly husky voice, he said, “Meredith Leighton, you’re testing my patience, aren’t you?


    Holding his face in her hands, Meredith responded, “You forced me to do it, didn’t you?”
