After a pause, Josiah pulled into a smirk and replied, “Ysabelle, did it ever occur to you that the baby is
my flesh and blood too? Do you really think that it’s right for you to be so eager in getting rid of one of
Shelby’s family bloodlines?” Ysabelle was once again rendered speechless. Gnawing on her lips, she
tried to explain herself, “I already told you that I was only thinking of helping you to get rid of Meredith.
If you think that’s how I think…fine then. I won’t say anything anymore.”
She then pretended to be angry and sat down on the bench in front of the ER.
Ysabelle thought that Josiah would say something to make her feel better but Josiah said to her-
instead, “Ysabelle, you should leave.”
“Why?”
“There’s no need for you to be here.” Ysabelle wondered what Josiah meant. Was he implying that she
would cause harm to Meredith?
Ysabelle wanted to wait and confirm that Meredith would lose her baby tonight. If not, all of her efforts
tonight would have gone to waste.
Looking at Josiah who was standing in front of the ER, Ysabelle felt disappointed yet at the same time
terrified.
“Alright then. I don’t think Meredith wants to see me too.” She got up from the bench and headed
toward the exit of the hospital.
But Ysabelle of course, would not leave that easily without getting any answers.
She bought a bottle of water from the vending machine and walked back to where Josiah was.“Here, drink some water,” Ysabelle said softly.
Right then, the doctor walked out of the ER.
At the sight of the both of them standing closely and somewhat intimately, the doctor came to a
realization that Josiah and Ysabelle were a pair. And that was why Ysabelle insisted on getting rid of
the child. Seeing how the doctor was staring at him and Ysabelle with a weird expression on his face,
Josiah was irked. “So are you going to tell me how she is or are you just going to stand there?”
The doctor did not know about Josiah’s identity.
All he knew was that Josiah was nothing but a good-looking douchebag. The doctor then retorted
impatiently, “Weren’t you the one who didn’t want to save the child? Why do you even care about Miss
Meredith then?” “How could you say such a thing when you’re a doctor yourself? I’ll file a complaint
right now! ” Ysabelle seethed and reached for her phone.
At the mention of filing a complaint, the doctor flinched. Josiah signaled Ysabelle to put away the phone
and fixed his gaze on the doctor. “So?” The doctor cleared his throat and replied, “Don’t worry, the child
is safe. The mother would need some time before she regains her consciousness.”
Josiah finally felt a sense of relief. “But the next few days are crucial for the patient. She would need to
stay in bed and rest, and shouldn’t be moving around, if not she might have a miscarriage,” The doctor
added.
Ysabelle, on the other hand, nearly dropped the bottle in her hand. Inwardly, she seethed, ‘Meredith
Leighton, you’re one lucky b*tch!’
Meredith had a lot of nightmares. She dreamt of how she was being sexually assaulted by the men and
how she lost her baby. She was screaming and crying in her sleep.Josiah was standing by the window, all the while watching her. When she finally called out his name,
Josiah walked over to her and held her hands in his. “I’m here,” Josiah said gently.novelbin
