Chapter 96

After seeing Yena, Josiah tumed and left Meredith was woken up due to the cold. When she woke up,
she coincidentally saw sosiah turning away and leaving She felt slightly disappointed Josiah was her
husband, yet he only had eyes for Yena She, on the other hand, his wife, has to even stay and take
care of Yena. There was no other wife on this earth who was a murh failure as she

No. She was already his ex-wife He has his reasons to ignore her. After comforting herself that way,
Meredith felt a little better.

Early in the morning, Meredith woke up to make breakfast.

She made oatmeal porridge with berries. It tasted amazing.

Lynn coldly mocked, “I’m not one to complain, but you’ve done such a simple meal, are you starving
Mister Josiah on purpose?“

“Don’t worry, as long as the nutrition is balanced, he won’t lose any weight.” Meredith did not want to
form feuds with anyone, so she patiently explained.

However, she has already stolen Lynn’s thunder. No matter how patient she was to Lynn, Lynn was still
infuriated

Meredith placed the oatmeal porridge on the dining table when she saw Alfred heading toward the
backyard

Meredith chased after Alfred, “Alfred, I have something to say to you.”

“What is it?” Alfred asked. “So,” Meredith said diffidently, “Last night, Mister Josiah handed me the
responsibilities of the kitchen. That means I’m doing two jobs. I wanted to ask you if if my salary could



be increased?”

“Uh,” Alfred was a little in a bit of a bind. “It’s really not up to me to decide. After all, no one is taking
two persons’ pay in this mansion. Let me go and ask Mister Josiah.”

Asking Josiah? That would end up badly.

Meredith laughed drily, “Alfred, aren’t you in charge of all the spending in the mansion? You don’t need
to ask him about paying a servant He is so busy.”

“No matter how busy he is, he is still the master of this mansion Of course, I have to ask him “Alfred
has just finished his sentence when he saw Josiah coming down the stairs

“Just in time, Mister Josiah is here” Then, Alfred greeted Josiah respectfully

Meredith followed the direction of Alfred’s gaze and looked up Sure enough, she saw Josiah

At that moment, he was in a Davy-blue suit, with one hand in his pockets, the other occasionally
touching the railings while he came down the spiral staircase

Having been at the top position for a long time, he oozed a regal aura. Giving off an intimidating
authoritative feeling Meredith only took one glance before looking away,

Josiah looked at her and lazıly asked Alfred, “What’s going on?”

“Oh,” Alfred said, ” Miss Meredith was asking me whether she could have a raise because she is doing,
kitchen duty on top of her original job.”

Josuh swept his gaze toward Meredith Meredith looked away once again, without making a single
sound “Are you that desperate for money?” Josiah looked at her and sneered, “Since you need money,



why don’t you do the sweeping of the backyard too? Also, the cleaning of the main building, and
laundry as well. We have lots to do.”

Meredith lowered her head and respectfully replied, “As long there is pay, I will do it.”

“Of course, there is. I won’t be so cheap as to owe servants their pay,” Josiah said before turning to
Alfred and instructing, “Let everyone know that they have a month of paid leave. From today onward,
all the chores in the mansion will be done by Miss Meredith.”
