Chapter 1293


    "You''re great, Edith. Great...”


    Josiah returned from the washroom. He saw them gesturing at each other from afar, even talking to


    each other flirtatiously.


    He immediately quickened his steps and pulled them apart. "Liam. What are you doing? If you''re going


    to continue this, I''ll chop your hands off.


    "You too." Josiah pulled Meredith into his arms. "You''re so great, yet you keep attracting other men.


    What happens if you''re kidnapped?"


    Meredith looked at him and giggled foolishly. "Joe, do you think I''m great too?”


    "Of course, if not why would I like you?" Josiah hugged her around the waist, making sure that she did


    not fall.


    Meredith thought for a while before asking, "Then tell me, which aspect of me do you find great?"


    "Every aspect." Josiah tapped her on her nose. "So you can''t flirt with other men. Do you hear me?"


    "Oh.”


    "Might I ask the great Miss Meredith? Can we go home now?"


    "I don’t want to go home. I hate...home." Meredith grabbed Josiah by his clothes in front of his chest


    and shook her head. "Josiah, do you hear me? I don''t want to go home."


    ”1 hear you. Why don’t we go to your ce?”Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Okay." Meredith nodded before saying, "Then, what about Nia? We have to fetch Nia...back."


    "Okay, I will fetch Nia."


    Josiah hugged Meredith tightly and looked at Liam, who was supporting his head with his arm, falling


    asleep, "Liam, I have already called your driver toe and pick you up. He is almost here."


    Liam waved at him, signaling that he could leave.


    Coincidentally, his driver had arrived too. Then only Josiah left with Meredith in peace.


    Sure enough, he did not return to his mansion, but he brought Meredith back to the Leightons’


    mansion. On the way, he dialed Lily.


    When he found out that Nia and Cooper were asleep already, he decided not to disturb them.


    "Sir, don''t worry. I will take good care of the children," Lilly said.


    "Hmm, thank you."


    Josiah looked at Meredith, who was asleep on his shoulder. He said in her ear, "Edith, we''ll go pick Nia


    up tomorrow, okay?"


    Meredith, who was already asleep, did not hear him at all. She only responded gently.


    "You have just been kidnappedst night, yet you''re still so unaware." Josiah sighed helplessly and


    hugged her shoulders tighter so that she slept morefortably.


    The driver stopped right at the door. He got out and opened the back passenger seat door before


    saying to Liam, "Mister Liam, we are home. Let me help you in."


    Liam opened his eyes a little. When he saw what was outside the car, he nodded.


    With the help of the driver, he fumbled inside.


    The servant responsible for keeping watch of Ivy saw him return and immediately weed him as if


    he were the savior, saying, "Mister Liam, Miss Landers is still not eating or drinking. She keeps asking


    to go out."


    That day, Liam received multiple phone calls from the servant, reporting that Ivy was neither drinking


    nor eating. Which was why he was not surprised. He only furrowed his brows and said, "Is she asleep


    yet?"


    "No. She was just yelling that she wanted to go home."


    Liam paused for a while before nodding. "Okay."


    Then, he headed upstairs.


    He came to the master bedroom upstairs. That was the room where he usually slept. That day, he used


    it to lock Ivy in there.
