Chapter 185Chapter 185
Walking over to Josiah’s grandmother with a cup of hot tea in her hands, Ysabelle passed the cup to
her and said, “Don’t worry, Grandma. I’ll help you keep an eye on Josiah. Here, have some hot tea to
warm yourself.”
“You’re a good kid, Ysabelle.” Taking the cup from Ysabelle, she then said,” There now, I’ll be waiting
for your good news back at Delsam City then. See you
soon!”
“See you soon, Grandma. Have a safe trip.” Ysabelle waved her goodbye. Until Josiah’s grandmother
disappeared from her view, Ysabelle looked at Josiah and said, “Josiah, I think your grandma really
wants to have a great-grandchild of her own. You should hurry up.” Josiah simply nodded, turned
around, and headed to the exit. Ysabelle wanted to tell him that she could be the one to fulfill his
grandmother’s wish but she swallowed back her words.
She was worried that Josiah would reject her offer and would then chase her away from his side.
Getting into the car with Josiah, she asked, “Josiah, are you going back to your place?” Josiah replied,
“You can ask the driver to give you a ride home.”
“I need to drop by your place too, I might have left my bag there.” Ysabelle leaped at every opportunity
that she could get to spend some alone time with Josiah.
There was no one else at the mansion, no Meredith nor Yena, but only him.
Just the thought of it was enough to make Ysabelle happy.
However, her happiness did not last long as Meredith had turned up at the Shelby mansion.Inwardly, Ysabelle seethed, ‘That darn b*tch. What is she doing here again? Didn’t she already move
out?’
As the car drove closer to the mansion, they could see Meredith clearer. She was crouching down by
the door, her entire body basking in the warm rays of sunlight, making her fair skin look like they were
glistening.
Ignoring her hideous scarred face, she did look pretty. Ysabelle stole a quick glance at Josiah who was
seated by her side. She realized that Josiah’s cold gaze was suddenly lit up at the sight of Meredith.
A fresh swell of jealousy welled up in her. Gnawing on her lips, she said, “What is Meredith doing here
again? Isn’t she worried that Miss Leah would haunt her?”
Before she could even get an answer from Josiah, he looked like he was ready to get out of the car.
Meredith stood up when she heard the car nearing her.
Like always, Josiah looked gorgeous, with his tall build and broad shoulders. All but that cold
expression of his.
“Meredith Leighton , I thought you made it clear that you don’t want to see me anymore? You said that
you’re disgusted by me and you hated me, didn’t you?” Taking a step toward her, he smirked coldly.
“What’s with this now? You changed your mind overnight?” “Yeah.” Meredith had mentally prepared
herself to face him. Looking up at him, she said, “I gave it a serious thought last night. No one would
want to pay for an ugly woman like me and other jobs don’t pay well. Hence, I want to work here
again.” “You want to work here again?” Arching his brow, Josiah asked, “And what work are you
referring to?” “I can do anything you want me to. From laundry to all the chores, to keep you company
or even sleep with you. Anything you need, I’ll deliver.” “Sleep with me?” Josiah went on, “No guys arewilling to pay for your service at the clubhouse so you’re trying your luck with me? Why?” Meredith
replied, “Didn’t you pay for my services more than a few times?”
“You-” Ysabelle was even more infuriated than Josiah. She walked up to Meredith and slapped her
across the face. “Do you even feel shame, Meredith Leighton? How could you say thingsnovelbin
